Understandably, the stars of the film Jenna Ortega, Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara and Monica Belucci were dressed to impress, but the event also attracted some of Hollywood's biggest stars, including Cate Blanchett who looked simply sensational.
However, it wasn't the only celebration in town, as the event opened with the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement, which went to Alien star Sigourney Weaver.

Cate Blanchett
Cate Blanchett was channeling her inner sci-fi star as she arrived at the annual festival in a golden Armani gown.
She paired the look with Louis Vuitton jewelery, including a necklace she first wore in May at the Cannes Film Festival. The diamonds and pearls had already been repurposed, according to Cate's stylist, from necklaces worn to BAFTA in 2023 and 2024.
