As the Toronto International Film Festival 2024 takes place from September 6 to 15, the red carpet is nothing short of a runway for the world’s most stylish celebrities — fashion meets film in an unapologetic display of comfort and couture.
From Jennifer Lopez’s dreamy Chloé ensemble to Florence Pugh’s big ball gown by Tamara Ralph, it’s clear this year’s style was about striking the balance between timeless glamour and modern comfort. Here’s our countdown of the top 10 looks that made TIFF 2024 a runway to remember.
At the 2024 TIFF Road to the Golden Globes Party, Jennifer Lopez dazzled in a nude Chloé dress with a semi-sheer bodice and tiered asymmetrical skirt. The look was completed with gold Sabyasachi earrings and a Tyler Ellis clutch, giving her an effortlessly elegant appearance.
Salma Hayek often opts for a sequined Gucci creation when it comes to attending high-profile events. For instance, back in March, she delivered another sparkly Gucci moment at the Oscars after-party in a silver gown with a one-shouldered long sleeve and a short train.
Lupita Nyong’o wowed in a custom-made celadon gown by Daniel Del Core at the premiere of Wild Robot. The gown featured a corset bodice and a sheer skirt, reflecting her bold and sophisticated style choices.
Amy Adams wore a navy fitted gown with a sweetheart neckline and glittering embellishments. The classic elegance of her dress made her one of TIFF’s most elegantly dressed stars.
Sydney Sweeney attended the premiere of Eden at TIFF 2024, wearing a bespoke look by Erdem. A blend of gothic and romantic, her custom Erdem look included an ivory midi dress with a cinched waist and an A-line skirt. The delicate bow detail accented the garment’s waistline.
Florence Pugh graced the premiere of We Live in Time in a bubblegum pink ball gown by Tamara Ralph. The dramatic bow and voluminous skirt added a fairy-tale element to her look, bringing a touch of old Hollywood glamour to the festival.
Margaret Qualley chose a head-to-toe Chanel ensemble for the premiere of The Substance. The actress’s monochromatic look, featuring a sophisticated tunic cape and velvet shorts, embodied the timeless elegance of Chanel. This chic combination was accessorised with delicate jewellery from the same brand.
Demi Moore brought business-casual chic to the red carpet in a Thom Browne ensemble. She donned a sharp white shirt with a black tie, paired with a high-waisted velvet skirt adorned with a silver star. This look was both sophisticated and edgy, making it a standout on the carpet.
For the occasion, the Maleficent star dressed like a true Hollywood icon, slipping into a sleek ruched black gown with a flowing semi-sheer floor-length skirt with a wavy train. She wore the piece, by Dolce & Gabbana, with matching opera gloves for an extra ounce of elegance.
Cate Blanchett wowed at her In Conversation With… event in a fiery red jumpsuit by Ami Paris. The effortlessly stylish jumpsuit featured wide-legged pants, a half-buttoned top, and a loose belt, exuding comfort without compromising on elegance.
