Venice Film Festival 2022: Best Dressed Stars
The most stylish women and the most high-octane glamorous looks at Venice Film Festival.
The end of August can only mean two things: post-holiday blues and keeping a beady eye on all the jaw-dropping gowns at the Venice Film Festival – otherwise known as: The Most Glamorous Event Of The Year.
One of the oldest film festivals in the world (the first one was held in 1932), VFF is a time where every actor worth their salt (and a good smattering of supermodels too) will parade in front of the cameras in only the finest designs. Some of our favourite looks over the years include Amal Clooney’s lilac-hued Atelier Versace number in 2017 and Sophia Loren’s iconic '50s taffeta dress. Accessorised with lots of diamonds, naturally – particularly since the Festival is sponsored by Cartier. Glamour with a capital G.
As for the 2022 edition, the glamour is set to be bigger than ever following the largely scaled-back events of the past two years. So here are the best-dressed women from the 79th Venice Film Festival so far:
