For Kate Young, who styles Julianne Moore as well as a number of Cannes regulars like Michelle Williams and Sienna Miller, it’s the only red carpet “that is really photogenic,” she said in a phone call last week. The ocean light gives everyone a pure, rich glow. The length and width mean the carpet itself is vast, so that stars are usually photographed walking, rather than static.
In short, it is one of the only red carpets expansive enough to accommodate some of the world’s biggest and most opulent dresses. And one of the only events, really, whose premise fits the occasion of these gowns. The scope of its programming accommodates both monolith blockbusters like, which stars Moore as a mother running a shelter for domestic violence victims while also parenting a teenage son.
Take a look at the silk twill Bottega Veneta dress in which Young dressed Moore for the festival’s opening ceremony. Young, who often creates custom looks for her clients that remix themes from designer’s recent runway shows, borrowed the twisted knot shoulder detail from the Fall 2022 collection. The rest of the dress is a satin ballet of weight and movement: the darted, fitted bodice meets a peaked skirt in a gentle u-shape.
