The Only Venice Film Festival Red Carpet Looks You Need to See This Year
The traditional award season is January through March, when the Oscars and the Golden Globes attract tons of attention, but September is certainly no slouch when it comes to fantastic red carpet events. On September 2, the 83rd annual Venice Film Festival kicked off in The Floating City, with Amal and George Clooney, Laura Dern, Jonathan Bailey, and Nina Dobrev attending the opening ceremony. Later this month, I'm also looking forward to the Emmys on September 14 and the VMAs on September 27.
This year, the Venice Film Festival will debut a handful of major blockbusters, including Primetime starring Robert Pattinson, Bunker led by Penélope Cruz, and Bucking Fastard featuring sisters Kate and Rooney Mara. While I can't wait to see how these highly anticipated films will fare with audiences, I'm mostly eager to see what everyone will wear on the red carpet. Just like this year's Cannes Film Festival back in May, the Italian event is known for being the pinnacle of glamour, so you know the fashion moments will be epic. Scroll down to see the best red carpet looks of the 2026 Venice Film Festival, and keep checking back until September 12 for additional photos.
