As the first week of the Cannes Film Festival drew to an end, the Vogue100 and friends of Vogue descended upon the iconic Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc for a glamorous soirée celebrating the intersection of fashion and film. The evening began at sunset with cocktails on the hotel’s legendary terrace which overlooks the pool—a place where generations of Hollywood icons have gathered during festival season—before guests moved inside for dinner against the backdrop of the glittering Mediterranean Sea.

For the second consecutive year, Vogue100 partnered with the Women in Film initiative to host a brunch and panel conversation during the 79th edition of the Cannes Film Festival. Held at the iconic Nammos Cannes, the gathering brought a touch of Grecian glamour to the Riviera, with the beach club’s signature azure parasols playing backdrop to an afternoon dedicated to storytelling, mentorship, and celebrating women in cinema.
