Julianne Moore wore a custom Bottega Veneta gown at the premiere of Wes Anderson's highly-anticipated 'The Phoenician Scheme.' With sculptural minimalism, her elegant appearance emphasized the house's dedication to modern craftsmanship. Moore's one-shoulder black gown balanced architectural precision with fluidity. Her silhouette was clean yet commanding, allowing the construction to speak for itself. From certain angles, a subtle flourish was revealed: hand-knotted leather fringe that cascaded down her back, offering unexpected texture and depth.
Moore’s look was completed with the house's Rocket mules—sculptural heels that grounded the gown’s ethereality. A pair of diamond drop earrings by Chopard framed her face and complemented the gown’s silhouette. The absence of a necklace allowed her neckline’s asymmetry to remain uninterrupted, further emphasizing the gown’s geometric clarity.
A day before her red carpet moment, Moore was spotted arriving in Cannes in effortless off-duty style. She wore an oversized Bottega Veneta cardigan, structured Pinacoteca bag, and Tri-Fold square sunglasses—an elevated casual look that perfectly presaged her formal appearance.
Known for embracing bold color and form at Cannes, Moore's move toward minimalism in 2025 marks a notable pivot. Amid the film's rapturous reception and 7.5-minute standing ovation from the Cannes audience, her appearance marked yet another triumph in her illustrious career. As the sun dipped behind the Riviera, Moore once again delivered inspiration on the red carpet—an affirmation that confidence goes hand-in-hand with her enduring and prolific accomplishments.
