From Cate Blanchett’s iconic re-wear to Julia Roberts, a vision in classic black
The 2025 Venice Film Festival has just set sail, and already the Lido is looking like the A-list playground. Julia Roberts? Check. Emma Stone? Check. George Clooney? Obviously. Cate Blanchett and Colman Domingo? Also there, casually reminding us all why we exist in 2025.
No doubt, the premieres will always create buzz Luca Guadagnino’s After the Hunt, Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein—but truly, the real drama is always on the carpet. This is the festival that once gave us Lady Gaga’s feathered Valentino fantasy in 2018 and Zendaya’s wet-look Balmain masterpiece in 2021.
And we’re not done. We're talking about archival glam and vintage vibes from Frankenstein’s Mia Goth, custom Chanel on After the Hunt’s Ayo Edebiri.
