With the 69^th annual Cannes Film Festival in full force, the red carpets in France have revealed an array of striking celebrity sartorial statements. On Saturday, Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made an appearance at the premiere of Steven Spielberg’s adventure film The BFG.

The 42-year-old exotic beauty posed on the red carpet in an elaborate pale pink Elie Saab gown, which featured beaded and embellished detail and a flowing train. Meanwhile, the waist-cinching silhouette and strappy bodice accentuated her figure. For a finishing touch, Rai Bachchan’s alluring diamond statement necklace completed her red carpet statement.

Parisienne actress Marion Cotillard also looked classically beautiful, as she posed on the red carpet at the premiere of From The Land Of The Moon on Sunday. The 40-year-old stunner (who stars in the French romantic drama film) showcased her slim physique in a figure-flattering gold couture gown by Christian Dior.

Cotillard’s column dress was accented with ladylike long sleeves, a high neckline, black detail on one shoulder and a thigh-high slit. She paired the luxurious metallic creation with strappy black heels, which offered an elegant accessorizing finish.
