Venice has long been celebrated as a city of cinema, but it’s just as much a capital of style. Every year, as the gondolas drift through the canals and the Lido becomes a hive of anticipation, the Venice Film Festival transforms into a global stage where fashion and film converge. The 2025 Venice Film Festival, now in its 82nd edition, which kicked off on August 27 and runs until September 6, has been no exception. Stars, directors, and industry insiders descended upon the floating city not only to champion the latest in world cinema, but also to remind us why Venice red carpets are among the most glamorous in the world.

This year’s program has already generated headlines, with premieres that range from stirring dramas to highly anticipated international features. Films like The Wizard of Kremlin by Olivier Assayas and Guillermo del Toro’s highly-anticipated Frankenstein made their debut, cementing the festival’s role as both a launchpad for awards season contenders and a meeting point for groundbreaking filmmakers. Yet outside the screening rooms, another spectacle has unfolded, dominated by couture gowns, custom suits, and fearless fashion statements that turned the red carpet into its own cinematic moment.

From show-stopping silhouettes to unexpected sartorial risks, the festival has been a feast for style enthusiasts. Here, we round up our favorite celebrity red carpet looks from the 2025 Venice Film Festival (so far).
