The red carpet at the 67th annual Cannes Film Festival was awash with looks from the latest shows and pieces custom-created by fashion's biggest names, as stars of fashion and film walked the famous 24 steps of the Palais des Festivals.

In pure silver screen style, the best of Fashion Week was showcased alongside bespoke creations made especially for Cannes, as Amber Heard attended in latest-season Vionnet, and Karlie Kloss chose a beaded Chanel couture dress. Suki Waterhouse was elegant in bespoke Christian Dior and Sofia Coppola broke away from the gowns in an on-trend sequin short suit from Valentino's Pre-Autumn/Winter 2014-2015 collection. The stand-out looks were dreamy creations featuring tulle, beading, silk and embellishment, as the trends for this season and next made a statement on the red carpet. Think metallics, columns of colour and dazzling details, as Vogue.fr picks the ten best-dressed stars at the Cannes Film Festival.

Cutting a sultry figure on the Saint Laurent red carpet, Natasha Poly stood out in ethereal Oscar de la Renta Spring/Summer 2014. With smoky eyes and pulled-back hair bringing out her natural beauty, the Russian model brought a touch of colour to her black tulle and lace dress with eye-catching De Grisogono amethyst earrings.
Lara Stone in Calvin Klein(02 of10)

Showing the effectiveness of a simple silhouette, all eyes were on Lara Stone as she struck a pose in a bespoke fuschia Calvin Klein Collection column. From head to toe, the Dutch model was every inch the seductress, as her long blonde locks fell loosely around the eye-catching detail of the asymmetric dress.
Amber Heard in Vionnet(03 of10)

The fashion world fell for the relaxed luxe of Amber Heard's Vionnet look, as the actress walked the steps of the Palais des Festivals in a elegant take on the slouchy t-shirt, paired with a metallic long skirt. A breath of fresh air amongst a sea of structured gowns.
Léa Seydoux in Prada(04 of10)

The French actress, who went home with the Palme d'Or at Cannes Film Festival last year for her role in Blue is the Warmest Colour, worked her colouring in bespoke green Prada. The rich tone of the satin perfectly complemented her red hair, and a slick of vermillion on the lips added further depth to the bejewelled look. With a plunging neckline and embellished train, Léa had all the appeal of a true Hollywood starlet.
Sofia Coppola in Valentino(05 of10)

The opening night of the 67th Cannes Film Festival was marked by a screening of Olivier Dahan's Grace of Monaco biopic. Sofia Coppola made a style statement from the get-go by eschewing the gown trend and instead donning a minimalist Valentino short suit. The sequined look was the first of many winning looks from the American director, who also wore Michael Kors and Louis Vuitton at the Festival.
Suki Waterhouse in Christian Dior(06 of10)

Suki Waterhouse dressed her petite frame in flowing Christian Dior, as the silk ruffles of her bespoke dress moved gracefully in the warm Riviera breeze. She reached for Chopard diamonds to pair with the modern relaxed tailoring of her blush pink gown.
Jessica Chastain in Atelier Versace(07 of10)

Another flame-haired Cannes Film Festival leading lady, Jessica Chastain made like Léa Seydoux and highlighted the vibrancy of her flowing hair with an asymmetric royal blue Atelier Versace number. The jewel-toned dress hugged her curves and billowed from the waist, with a touch of pleating giving the skirt extra volume.
Liu Wen in Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane(08 of10)

Liu Wen took a Spring/Summer 2014 runway look and made it her own for the Cannes Film Festival red carpet. The dress, worn by Leona "Binx" Walton at the Saint Laurent show, was given a longer length and paired with dazzling pieces by French fine jeweler Chopard.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Gucci Première(09 of10)

British bombshell Rosie Huntington-Whiteley attended the screening of The Search in a Gucci Première gown, created especially for her by the Italian brand, a look which highlighted her slim silhouette and complemented her skin tone with shimmering silver-blue beads. De Grisogono diamonds completed the ensemble.
Karlie Kloss in Chanel(10 of10)

The American model looked back to Chanel's haute couture Autumn/Winter 2011-2012 collection for inspiration, choosing a suitably marine-inspired piece for the amfAR gala. She paired the simple navy blue beaded dress with Bulgari jewelry.
