Lara Stone's hot-pink gown is proof that what sounds

bad on paper doesn't always work out badly in IRL.

It's the eyelashes that make it.

Charlotte Gainsbourg, casual (well, ish) Louis

Vuitton and Cannes is a triangle of Frenchie fashion

 perfection. Any yellow trouser naysayers can move

along.

Evidence that Alessandra Ambrosio is looking

to trade "Victoria's Secret model" for

"Disney princess" at the top of her CV.

A biker jacket reprised as a red-carpet gown –

why has no one done that before Toni Marshall

(picture with Jean Paul Gaultier)? Because it's

a disaster, that's why.

Marion Cotillard does the whole smug-pigeon-at-

the-end-of-the-pier look. Weirdly, it works.

Is anyone else bored with Cate Blanchett (though she

does look amazing in this Givenchy dress, it has to be

said)?

Here's Sharon Stone and her shoelace cleavage. She

doesn't need us to tell her that's she's forgotton her pants,

does she?

Sofia Coppola argues the case for mid-calf,

calm dresses at posh events. We're convinced.

Aymeline Valade does the whole Jared-Leto-

in-Saint-Laurent thing. And looks fabulous.

Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and a whole load of monochrome,

spiky V shapes. Nah.
