A new actress, and one to watch! This 16-year-old star rocked Oscar de la Renta to the 2018 Venice Film Festival premiere of Vox Lux. She looked gorgeous and called on Rebecca Corbin-Murray to help style her.  

Lady Gaga

Ah, we'll never forget this stunning Valentino Couture gown. A dream in pink, Lady Gaga wowed the crowds as she arrived for the premiere of A Star Is Born, starring herself and Bradley Cooper. She was styled by go-to team of Tom Eerebout and sandra Amador.

Naomi Watts

Oh how we love a sparkle or two! Naomi Watts absolutely killed it as she arrived on the red carpet during Venice Film Festival. Styled by Jeanann Williams, she looked super fresh and stylish wearing Dolce & Gabbana.

Lottie Moss was pretty in pink at the opening ceremony, and the premiere of First Man, during the 75th Annual Venice Film Festival. Wearing Ermanno Scervino, Kate Moss's little sister certainly showed off her fashion prowess.

Dakota Johnson

Anastasia Steele has definitely rubbed off on Dakota Johnson as this red va-va-voom dress looks like it was pulled from Mrs Grey's wardrobe. Seriously gorgeous!

Irina Shayk

Perhaps she should have saved this gold number for the Oscars because she literally looks like the golden statue. Dressed in Versace, and joined by Donatella Versace, Irina Shayk seriously worked the red carpet.
