The 2025 Kering in Motion Awards during Cannes Film Festival were less about who won what and more about who wore Gucci—which, judging by the evening’s line-up, was nearly everyone.
When in doubt, go sheer with crystals—again
Dakota Johnson clearly subscribes to the “if it ain’t broke” philosophy, once again stepping out in a sheer, embellished Gucci gown. This time, it was a crystal strass and bead-embroidered column with an open back. Sound familiar? It’s not a repeat, just a very well-worn aesthetic she loves—and at this point, it’s practically her red carpet uniform. Predictable? Yes. But undeniably effective.
A Win, is a Win
Halle Berry wore a custom Gucci crystal embroidered sleeveless gown, which was a dazzling moment and significant improvement on past outings, and when it comes to Halle, I’ll take what I can get.
A colourful punctuation mark
Juliette Binoche has been a quiet style MVP this season. Her custom Gucci Fall 2025 white embellished dress might sound safe on paper, but it came alive with that green silk scarf and those unexpected purple patent leather shoes. This is how you inject personality into your look.
From summer breeze to autumn chill
Daisy Edgar-Jones has been in full summer mode for her On Swift Horses press tour, but has clearly changed seasons for Cannes. This custom Gucci Fall 2025 look—a brown velvet GG embroidered bodysuit with a black embroidered skirt—felt heavy and a little mismatched.
Draped in elegance
Julia Garner delivered one of the more romantic looks of the night in a brown silk cady asymmetrical Gucci gown. The silk Chantilly lace intarsia bodice added lightness, while the elegant draping gave it a fluid grace. It was quietly gorgeous.
Monogrammed and sheer
Davika Hoorne wore a Gucci brown silk chiffon gown from the Pre-Fall 2025 collection, layered over the house’s GG monogram bra and boy shorts. Styled with a Bamboo Night leather clutch, this was all about branding.
The green goddess moment
Salma Hayek-Pinault wore a Gucci look only she could carry: a custom green sequined gown topped with tonal feathers. The pièce de résistance? A Gucci High Jewelry necklace featuring green tourmaline, tanzanites and diamonds, plus a matching ring. Regal, rich and right in her zone.
