Stunning beauty looks from the 2024 Cannes Film Festival

The annual Cannes Film Festival might first and foremost be a showcase of the world’s greatest film talent, but it’s also a sartorial spectacle, playing host to some of the most glamorous red carpet looks of the year.

As the 2024 event in the south of France demonstrates, this energy is exemplified by the beauty looks, too. From Anya Taylor-Joy’s statement hairstyle to Thalia Besson’s bold make-up, this year’s beauty details are far from afterthoughts.

Here, enjoy a close-up of the breathtaking hair and make-up designs from the premieres and photo calls as they happen.
