The Most Glamorous Red Carpet Looks From the Venice Film Festival

The term "red carpet season" is beginning to seem like a misnomer. The reality is that the red carpet schedule is positively packed year-round, including the Oscars in March, the Met Gala and Cannes Film Festival in May, and the Venice Film Festival in August. (Oh, and don't forget the upcoming VMAs on September 12!) 

The Venice Film Festival just kicked off yesterday but has already blessed us with some majorly stylish red carpet looks. With the SAG strike keeping some actors and actresses away, models such as Bianca Balti and Anja Rubik are holding down the fort in spectacular fashion. Scroll down to see the most glamorous looks from the 2023 Venice Film Festival and keep checking back, as the event continues until September 9.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
