All the Looks From the 2026 Kering Women in Motion Red Carpet
Julianne Moore accepted the main prize in custom Bottega Veneta

The 2026 Kering Women in Motion event at Cannes delivered exactly what you'd expect from a program backed by one of fashion's most powerful conglomerates: a red carpet that read less like an awards show and more like a runway in motion, with the group's house labels dominating every frame.
According to Harper's Bazaar, the evening was a masterclass in house loyalty. Gucci by Demna made its presence felt immediately — Demi Moore arrived in the label alongside Boucheron jewelry, while Salma Hayek Pinault, Daisy Edgar-Jones, and Sophie Thatcher rounded out the house's lineup. Demna's sharp, subversive vision for Gucci translated well under Cannes lights: structured, a little confrontational, impossible to ignore. Meanwhile, Bottega Veneta by Louise Trotter had its own quiet dominance — Julianne Moore wore a custom look that confirmed Trotter's mastery of understated luxury, with Chloé Zhao and Vicky Krieps also dressed by the house.
Balenciaga, Saint Laurent, and the Wild Cards
Balenciaga claimed the most diverse roster of the night: Havana Rose Liu, Isabelle Huppert, Odessa A'zion, and Jordan Firstman all showed up in the label, proving the house's range across age, aesthetic, and gender. Saint Laurent, under Anthony Vaccarello, dressed Ruth Negga and Carla Bruni — two women who wear the house's severe elegance like a second skin — alongside Rami Malek on the men's side. The most unexpected moment of the evening belonged to Halsey, who bypassed the obvious Kering choices entirely and arrived in archival Chanel — a pointed, perfectly executed counterstatement. And Colman Domingo in Valentino by Alessandro Michele was the kind of maximalist, joyful dressing that makes fashion worth watching.
What the 2026 Women in Motion carpet made clear is that Kering's creative reshuffling — Demna at Gucci, Trotter at Bottega — is paying off in real time, with talent willing to wear the risk publicly.
