The Best Menswear Looks On The Cannes 2026 Red Carpet

The 2026 edition of the Cannes Film Festival once again turned the French Riviera into the centre of global cinema, where film premieres, standing ovations and star-studded screenings unfolded alongside some of the year’s biggest fashion moments. While Cannes remains, first and foremost, a film festival with a famously strict red carpet code (remember the uproar around last years' dressing rules?), the event has steadily evolved into one of fashion’s most closely watched stages.

Menswear, in particular, has undergone a dramatic transformation over the years. Sure, predictable tuxedos are everywhere (and we don't even blame it; tuxes just are that good), but Cannes has also witnessed unforgettable menswear moments: from Timothée Chalamet's backless red outfit to A$AP Rocky bringing his high-fashion experiments to the Croisette. Even timeless style icons like George Clooney have proven that understated tailoring can command just as much attention as the flashiest couture gown nearby.
