UK pop star Cheryl Cole took a dramatic turn in a Stéphane Rolland Couture gown with dainty cap-sleeves and a brilliant crimson feathered train. David Morris diamond chandelier earrings added the requisite sparkle beneath her long auburn hair.

Blush-hued dresses don't always work for fair-skinned ladies, but Jessica Chastain couldn't have looked dreamier in the gold-flecked Gucci gown she chose for the Lawless premiere. Chastain smartly left her neckline bare to avoid an overabundance of sparkle (there is such a thing).

Not even a sudden, unexpected downpour could dampen Diane Kruger's shine at the premiere of Love on Sunday. The self-styled superstar displayed her tiny waist in a perfectly draped Vivienne Westwood creation, worn with a retro hairstyle, sparkling earrings and swanky platform sandals.

Italian multi-hyphenate Asia Argento was feeling the gothic vibe at the Dracula 3D premiere. The daughter of horror film great Dario Argento lived up to the family name in a corseted Givenchy Couture creation embroidered with crocodile scales and studs.

Year after year, diminutive actress Eva Longoria kicks up the glamour in a gown that probably weighs more than half what she does. This year, Longoria attended the premiere of Wes Anderson's new film Moonrise Kingdom in a frothy Marchesa creation with a decadent train. We're surprised she made it up the steps.

Young Moonrise Kingdom star Kara Hayward defied convention in a tiered lemon Louis Vuitton gown and silver snakeskin sandals. KILL HER STYLIST! The thirteen-year-old paired the look with age-appropriate accessories: a glittering headband and a book-shaped clutch.

Elena Lenina is, as far as we can tell, a Russian model/author who appeared on a French reality television show in 2003. She's since kept her name in headlines by dressing like this. Somewhere, I Dream of Jeannie's Barbara Eden is shaking her fist in fury.

Leave it to a supermodel to upstage all the film talent at Cannes. Eva Herzigova was goddess-like in a slim-fitting Dolce & Gabbana gown dripping with crystal beads. Her very serious diamond necklace likely came with its own security guard.

Tilda Swinton rarely strays from her favorite label Haider Ackermann, and with good reason: The brand perfectly captures her stark, architectural approach to beauty. Swinton stayed typically cosmetic-free, opting only for a dash of bright lip color.

The iconic Jane Fonda brought the glitz to the Moonrise Kingdom premiere in a jaw-dropping bronze sequined Atelier Versace gown. Fonda modified the dress to fit her style, adding a sheer yoke and sleeves. Dangling 18-karat rose gold earrings by Chopard added the final touch.

Marion Cotillard attended a photocall for her upcoming film Rust and Bone in a breezy, peachy Christian Dior frock with delicate buttons up the sides and a shiny gold belt. The longtime Dior spokemodel added a pop of fresh, summery color with lemon patent leather Versus pumps.

Chinese actress and singer Fan Bingbing isn't particularly well known in the States, save with lovers of couture. Fan wears it well and often—see how regal she looks in this Elie Saab Couture gown and matching cape, accessorized with Chopard jewels and a Ferragamo clutch.

Eva Longoria looked ready to slip right out of the streamlined Emilio Pucci gown she wore to the Rust and Bone premiere—perhaps because she's not used to wearing light pieces anymore. The former Desperate Housewives actress should consider paring back her look more often.

Melissa George almost looked like she was trying to slip under the radar at the Rust and Bone premiere in her Calvin Klein getup, despite its completely sheer front panel. Metallic sandals, a sparkly silver clutch and cat eye makeup weren't enough to boost the look to Cannes-level drama.

Natasha Poly burned up the red carpet at the Madagascar 3 premiere in a plunging green Gucci frock, matching emerald earrings and strappy sandals. The seasoned model went full vamp with kohl-rimmed eyes and a slick low ponytail.

Jada Pinkett Smith was at her most radiant in a jaw-dropping tangerine strapless gown by Atelier Versace that seemed to defy gravity. Someone's a fan of double-stick tape! She complemented the touch of gold in the bodice with a pair of metallic Jimmy Choo sandals.

Naomi Watts should have no trouble channeling her inner royalty for her upcoming role as Princess Di. The Australian actress looked rather stately in an ecru feathered gown by Marchesa, worn with a couple of Chopard diamonds and a retro updo.

Freida Pinto got in on the crop top trend in Salvatore Ferragamo separates to announce her role in the upcoming film Desert Dancer. We can think of three different pop stars who are likely jealous they didn't wear this outfit first.
