The Best Looks From the 2024 Venice Film Festival Red Carpet

Over the past ten days, directors, starlets, influencers and the usual assortment of ostentatiously wealthy attention-seekers have descended on Venice—it’s a beautiful summer season in southern Europe, after all, so why not spend it inside watching a bunch of new films?

The 2024 Venice International Film Festival, now in its 77th year, opened with the debuts of Tim Burton’s sequel, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice , on August 28 and will close with period horror piece The American Backyard . Along the way, there have been buzzy screenings of Joker: Folie à Deux , Kevin Costner’s Horizon saga, Maria and Queer , to name just a few.

With all of these premieres there comes a red carpet. And with fashion icons like Tilda Swinton ( The Room Next Door ), Nicole Kidman ( Babygirl ) and Taylor Russell (who didn’t have a film showing at Venice, but served on a festival jury—and served looks, ofc) in the mix, that’s serious business. There’s been glamorous gowns and louche suits, oversize fascinators (Lady Gaga, but of course) and itty-bitty puppies. Some celebs posed demurely—very mindful—and other hammed it up with the crowds and paparazzi.
