Alessandra Ambrosio

Brands who see Cannes as especially on-brand for their marketing efforts often "place" bags on certain celebrities specifically for the film festival. Balmain is one of those brands, and it had Alessandra Ambrosio carry the Balmain Box Bag ( 1100$) for most of the festival's daytime events.

Alessandra Ambrosio

To be fair, Balmain is an extremely Cannes brand. It's famous for very expensive little party dresses, after all.

Amber Heard

Next, like several others we'll discuss later, she opted for a Fendi Peekaboo Bag. (4200$)

Andreja Pejic

Model Andreja Pejic chose a throwback that's not really a throwback: the Balenciaga City Bag. (2190$)

Anna Andres

You can't go wrong with a Chanel Classic Flap Bag, especially in the South of France.

Bella Hadid

To one of the festival's many evening events, Bella Hadid carried a Dior Lady Dior Bag. Bella is the face of Dior Beauty.

Caro Daur

German Instagram star Caro Daur was all over Cannes, as were Bulgari Serpenti Bags—both of which, fairly predictable attendees.

Caro Daur

She also made several appearances with her Chanel Classic Flap Bag.

Caro Daur

See? Did I lie?

Caro Daur

She also showed up with her Dolce & Gabbana Lucia Shoulder Bag. Dolce is another very Cannes brand. (2405$)

Caroline Receveur

Although Cannes has a significant beach, French celeb Caroline Receveur is the only star we caught with an actual beach bag: the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Tote.(1050$)

Caroline Vreeland

I can't explain this suit, but I can explain the bag, which is a Moynat Rejane Bag.(5100$)

Cate Blanchett

I can't explain Cate Blanchett's suit or her bag, although if I had to guess, my guess would be Armani.

Cristina and Maria Teresa Buccino

These sisters are Italian celebs, and they both chose Chanel Boy Bags for their familial time circa the film festival.

Diane Kruger

At first when I saw Diane Kruger carrying a Fendi Peekaboo, I was surprised she wasn't carrying Chanel. Then I remembered Karl Lagerfeld is in charge of both. (4200$)

Eva Herzigova

Veteran supermodel Eva Herzigova carried the new Ferragamo Studio Bag. (2400$)

Helen Mirren

The weird thing about Cannes is you get a huge mix of stars, all the way from Instagram "models" to a legend like Helen Mirren, who carried a Loewe Missy Bag. (1890$)

Iskra Lawrence

Speaking of Instagram models, Iskra Lawrence carrying a Gucci Dionysus Bag. (2290$)

Izabel Goulart

Model Izabel Goulart is a longtime fave of Fendi's, and they generally outfit her well for Cannes, like with this Fendi Peekaboo Bag. (4200$)

Kimberly Garner

British reality star Kimberly Garner was in attendance, carrying a Chanel Logo Satchel.

Lea Seydoux

Lea Seydoux was one of our most interesting bag-spots of the festival: she arrived in Nice carrying a Louis Vuitton bag from the Fall 2018 runway, not yet in stores.

Lena Gercke

German model Lena Gercke paired a cute two-piece ensemble with a Mark Cross Grace Box Bag on one of the festival's sunnier days. (2105$)

Lorena Rae

The thing Goole really wants me to know about Lorena Rae is that she briefly dated Leonardo DiCaprio last year, but, like, Cannes is also basically just an annual convention for that dude's exes. Here she is carrying a Gucci Dionysus Bag.

Nieves Alvares

We caught Spanish TV presenter Nieves Alvares carrying two Bulgari Serpenti Bags at the festival. First, with an all-pink outfit.

Nieves Alvarez

Second, she paired a Bulgari Serpenti with one of the festival's most popular fashion items: an Alberta Ferretti weekday sweater. (They also come in crop-top T-shirts.)

Penelope Cruz

Here we have our first mystery bag, carried by Penelope Cruz.

Romee Strijd

And now, our second and final mystery bag. Supermodel Romee Strijd has carried a lot of Miu Miu lately, but I couldn't find any proof that this is from the brand.

Romee Strijd

Here she is a couple days earlier, indeed carrying a Miu Miu bag on the Croisette. (1750$)

Salma Hayek

Always the dutiful wife, Salma Hayek showed up to one of her events in Cannes with a Gucci Wicker Bag. (Her husband owns Gucci's parent company. A good gig if you can get it, especially right now.(2390$)

Tallia Storm

Tallia Storm is a singer from Scotland, and she's all over the British tabloids for reasons I am not British enough to explain. She was widely photographed at Cannes, including with this orange Chanel Boy Bag.

Tallia Storm

She showed up in an entirely different two-piece outfit with a Saint Laurent Monogramme Kate Bag.(1990$)

Thylane Blondeau

Model Thylane Blondeau wore one of the popular Alberta Ferretti shirts with her Balmain Box Bag. (1077$)

Toni Garrn

Remember what we said about Cannes and Leo DiCaprio's exes? Well, here's Toni Garrn with a Bulgari Serpenti Bag.

Winnie Harlow

To be honest, I'm surprised we didn't see more Dior at Cannes, but we did spot model Winnie Harlow carrying a Dior Diorama Bag.
