As the face of Christian Dior, Marion tends to wear Dior a lot on the red carpet, and I do mean a lot. She is the poster girl for Dior and has been so for many years. Red is a good colour for Marion, which she wore at the 2013 Golden Globes, bravely opting for a shorter hem line when most actresses go for sweeping, floor length dresses. At the Cannes Film Festival she regularly donnes a Dior frock with splashes of colour, an a-symmetric detail somewhere and a pair of pointy stiletto heels. I really loved the nude, empire dress she wore at the Met Gala a few years back, with a simple clutch bag and her hair pinned back. Again, that was a Dior look. The actress is a perfect fit for Dior, chiefly because she carries their clothes very well and always looks nothing short of perfect.
Marion Cotillard, 41, has starred in some of the biggest movies over the past 10 years. From 'Inception', 'Midnight in Paris' and 'Nine' to, 'The Dark Knight', 'Rust and Bone' and 'Public Enemies,' she certainly has had her fair share of box office movies. But it is her upcoming movie with Brad Pitt which has caused the biggest stir, following the actor's split from Angelina Jolie. 'Allied' which will be released later this year, had the world talking about whether the two actors had an affair while filming, a statement which Cotillard has strongly denied. I do think the way Marion was dragged into the reason for Brangelia's divorce was unnecessary and damaging for her reputation but it's good promotion for the movie though.
Anyway, back to Marion's red carpet fashion. Her style is never boring, but is very French in that she looks like she's not even trying with her wardrobe choices, managing to look elegant and classy every time. She likes her couture too, with Giambattista Valli and Dior Haute Couture as go to designers, with luxury jewellery and immaculate hair an added bonus. She is rarely without her diamond necklace or earrings on the red carpet.
Remember at the 2008 Academy Awards when Marion turned heads in a mermaid like Jean Paul Gaultier gown, complete with matching sparkly eye shadow? That was the year she won the award of Best Actress for her stunning performance in 'Le vie en Rose.' Or perhaps the time at the Oscars when she donned her white, spotty Dior gown, which really shouldn't have worked but did. In 2009 again she wore Dior, but this time a dramatic black and blue tulle gown, in that classic 1950s 'New Look' Dior shape. Tres magnifique!
It's fair to say Marion Cotillard is a red carpet favourite and one of the most stylish women in the world. Here are a few of her best red carpet moments over the years...
