Meanwhile, Jason Statham in Bottega Veneta and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wearing Saint Laurent prove that dark glasses are the perfect addition for rounding off that “power-couple” look.

THE CANNES FILM FESTIVAL, WHERE GLAMOROUS SUNGLASSES REIGN SUPREME ON THE RED CARPET
Each in their own way, the world’s most beautiful actresses, directors, and filmmakers embodied the glamor of Cannes for this new edition. Juliette Binoche went for a natural, unisex look in Ahlem New York, while Isabelle Huppert and Naomi Campbell both flaunted a futuristic twist in Balenciaga .
Meanwhile, American actress and model Laura Harrier sported Saint Laurent frames to showcase a classic, super-chic style.
On the other end of the spectrum and just as eye-catching, Russian model Irina Shayk turned heads with her Gucci glasses in a perfect example of the Italian brand’s eclectic style.

Meanwhile, French actor Cédric Appietto set himself apart with a 5.45 Racer model in green acetate from the ultra-exclusive, artisanal Corsican brand Alba Nera.
Actors are constantly approached by fashion brands, and are familiar with the most current trends. Case in point: the transparent Saint Laurent glasses worn by Pedro Almodovar, a tortoiseshell model by Tod’s worn by Benoît Magimel, oversize Saint Laurent eyewear for The Weeknd, and Jeremy O. Harris sporting Bottega Veneta. Harris’ eclectic style speaks for itself! His oversize sunglasses already caught our eye at the Cannes Film Festival in 2022.

Last but not least, Leo Di Caprio was perfect in Oliver People’s Sun Horn model and Sean Penn kept his rebellious spirit in . Even when out of the fashion rat-race, the two actors maintain their legendary status.
