Falling down up-dos, men going grey, while sea foam continues to crest, and Reba McEntire shows everyone that she’s not only talented, but smart too – let’s hope she starts a trend for women: slippers on the red carpet – would Cannes turn her away???.

Ethnic trends are being celebrated in head gear that first appeared at the Golden Globes and later established their place at the Black Panther premieres. Patterns continue to add splashes of color, while men get adventurous in a very safe way.

There’s something really cool going on off the red carpet. When the stars turn up for press conferences they are a little more them.

Yellow holds its own, men continue to make their mark, and pale blue gains momentum.

Elle Fanning, Dakota’s younger sister, has stepped out from the shadow of her sibling, who is a powerhouse talent herself and grew up in the public eye. Elle, with less initial exposure, embraced the spotlight and showed an early edge that fashion houses fawned over to dress.

Heels – hate them or love them. There’s a strange obsession for some women with shoes.

Men are adopting velvet and color. Women are wearing trousers and breaking rules: if I want, pink and red DO go together.

Women continue to use the red carpet as acts of solidarity and defiance. As with the Golden Globes’ 75th Anniversary, BAFTA attendees chose black as a reminder that women are not treated equally, paid equally or given the same opportunities.

It’s fashion week and it looks like there’s been a major shift in shape. Women have taken the runway and brought it to the red carpet.

Red carpets just got a whole lot easier. Pants and a low heel make for elegance and super comfort.
