For the unversed, Cannes Film Festival updated its dress policy earlier this week, to add a new stipulation, i.e. no nudity on the red carpet, in addition to a ban on ‘voluminous outfits, in particular those with a large train’, that block the way for other guests and complicate theatre seating.
The organisers had also asserted that they could deny red carpet access to those who do not respect the rules.
Under these newly introduced rules, actor Halle Berry, who serves as a jury member for the 78th edition of the prestigious Cannes Film Festival this year, had to undergo a last-minute outfit change, she told the journalists on Tuesday.
“I had an amazing dress by Gupta to wear tonight, and I cannot wear it because the train’s too big,” she mentioned at a news conference. “I had to make a pivot. But the nudity part, I do think, is probably also a good rule.”
Notably, the action from the annual film festival’s organisers came in response to the string of recent red carpet appearances of celebrities, who have been pushing the dress code limits, with giant trains and sheer dresses.
In addition to the nudity ban, the festival also now allows for elegant shoes without a heel on the red carpet, a move welcomed by jury president Juliette Binoche. “On the heel side, I think it’s a very good idea, by experience,” she said.
