The 20 Most Glamorous Couples to Grace the Cannes Film Festival
As far as film festivals go, you can’t get more romantique than the Cannes Film Festival. Over the festival’s 74-year run, the Côte d’Azur has served as a backdrop for coupled-up cineastes in oversize sunglasses and glorious Hermès head scarves. To celebrate its 74th year, Vogue is looking back at some of the most glamorous couples to appear at Cannes—from Yoko Ono and John Lennon, to Johnny Depp and Kate Moss.
An early standout celebrity couple moment at the festival was in 1955, when Grace Kelly—before she became the Princess of Monaco—attended Cannes with French film star Jean Pierre Aumont per her side. In a classic tux and a black gown with a fur cape-shawl, they looked the part of an elegant, Old Hollywood duo. A groovier moment happened in 1977, when Charlotte Rampling and Jean Michel Jarre hit Cannes together wearing his-and-hers suits—each with with flared pants, of course.
More recently, who can forget when George and Amal Clooney hit the carpet in Cannes in 2016. George Clooney may have been the one in town to promote his new film Money Monster, but it was his wife—wearing a yellow, Grecian-inspired Versace gown—that stole the show. In 2019, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas also commanded the paparazzi in modern, all-white looks: Chopra wore strapless, sculptural Georges Hobeika gown, while Jonas did a sleek Berluti suit. While all these couple style moments are vast and varied, one thing remains true about the Cannes carpet: Two is always better than one.
