2009 Cannes Film Festival: Tilda Swinton
Wahoo — the 2009 Cannes Film Festival has begun! It was just reported the lavish festival will be toned down this year — Vanity Fair dismissed its black-tie annual and Louis Vuitton didn't book its usual table at the amfAR dinner — but we can still expect fashion on the red carpet from the likes of Diane Kruger, Penelope Cruz, and the enigmatic Tilda Swinton.
Tilda is up first for your judging pleasure.
Oscars Trend Alert: All Tied Up in Bows and Knots
Bows and ties and knots, oh my! On this year's Oscars red carpet, Amanda Seyfried, Tilda Swinton, Heidi Klum, Freida Pinto, and Jessica Biel were well-fastened with bold, over-sized bows and subtle, delicate knots. Seyfried's festive red Valentino gown won't secure her a gold statuette, but it's certainly given "It's a wrap!"
Oscars Red Carpet: Tilda Swinton
Tilda Swinton blew onto the red carpet looking avant-garde, this time in a sand-toned, draped blouse paired with a sleek, black, sweeping skirt, both by Lanvin. Dark lips add a touch of color, and heavy bangles complete the look. Her ensemble isn't the most flattering but it does complement her offbeat personality.
Trend Alert: Go Graphic or Go Home
My favorite Spring collection was Dries Van Noten. Graphic prints were an integral part of the eclectic collection. These calculated prints command attention and are stimulating to the eye.
Shining Stars of the Venice Film Festival
There are stars and then there are shining stars. At the 2008 Venice Film Festival, a slew of actresses and models flew overseas to attend, but only a handful shined. There were plenty of arenas to flaunt their fashions — movie premieres, photocalls, parties — and the likes of Charlize Theron and Natalie Portman went all out.
The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Tilda Swinton
Oh, I'm so glad Tilda decided to wear some makeup to the Gala. Her lace Prada dress, though not the most flattering, is very her. I like that she brought in some color with her orange star brooch and matching bracelet.

Francisco Costa of Calvin Klein revealed that he is dressing Fergie and Liv Tyler — no surprise there, since he's brought Liv to the event the past couple of years. He hinted that Fergie and Liv weren't his only two guests, but wouldn't name any more names.

Oscars Red Carpet: Tilda Swinton
Tilda Swinton complemented her shocking red hair with a washed silk satin black Lanvin gown. She tends to favor the avant-garde — but is this too weird for you?
