Cannes Film festival

Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth linked up with their Catching Fire co-star Sam Claflin this morning for a photo call at the extremely rainy Cannes Film Festival! The trio were able to escape the elements by posing inside the Majestic Hotel. Jennifer, Sam, and Liam are in France to hype up the second installment of The Hunger Games series, which is out in Australia on November 21. Also smiling for the cameras were Lionsgate co-chairmen Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger and director Francis Lawrence.

The cast and team behind the film are busy despite the release being six months away. It was just announced that COVERGIRL will launch the Capitol Collection, a range of makeup products inspired by the film. And Liam made sure to enjoy the social side of Cannes too. Last night, he and a group of guy friends checked out the Rev Run and DJ Rukus set at Belvedere's party inside the VIP Room club.

We're well and truly in the thick of things at the 66th Annual Cannes Film Festival. Things kicked off with stars including French beauty Audrey Tatou, Emma Watson and Carey Mulligan hitting the red carpet, but since then we've been beauty snooping everyone from Cara Delevingne and Rooney Mara to Megan Gale, her fellow L'Oreal ambassador Doutzen Kroes, and more. We'll be updating the Cannes Film Festival beauty looks as the photos come to hand but for now, click, click. . . 

Australian model Megan Gale is no stranger to the Cannes Film Festival, but this year might be her most glamorous appearance yet! Wearing a custom-made dress created by her friend and go-to designer, Alex Perry, Megan joined four of her fellow L'Oreal Paris spokeswomen — the cosmetics giant has been the festival's official makeup artist since 1997 — on the red carpet at the premiere of Benicio Del Toro's new film, Jimmy P. Megan posed in the rain with stars Cheryl Cole, Eva Longoria, Doutzen Kroes and Jane Fonda, afterwards tweeting to them, "Lovely to meet you tonight . . . Much love to you all".

The Cannes Film Festival kicked off on Wednesday and the South of France has officially been flooded with celebrities. Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio kicked off the festivities alongside Julianne Moore at the Opening Ceremony and The Great Gatsby premiere on Thursday. Meanwhile, Emma Watson was in awe of the fanfare when she took her own trip down the red carpet at The Bling Ring premiere yesterday. The action wasn't only on the red carpet as Rooney Mara proved when she attended a Calvin Klein bash alongside Harvey Weinstein on Thursday evening. Other stars like Justin Timberlake, Isla Fisher, Nicole Kidman, and Octavia Spencer have also been getting in on the Cannes fun this week. Be sure to check back for more Cannes Film Festival photos as they come in!

The 66th Annual Cannes Film Festival is underway with the help of our favourite A-listers who aren't afraid to show off their style or beauty chops. As the sunny photocalls get under way in the French Riviera, we're highlighting the chic daytime ensembles the stars wear before they hit the red carpet in fabulous gowns— just check out Liv Tyler looking fresh in Tanya Taylor florals, Emma Watson in dainty lace, and Isla Fisher rocking crisp white Dolce & Gabbana.

When you're a jury member at the Cannes Film Festival, like Nicole Kidman is for 2013's big event, stepping up your beauty and style A-game comes with the territory. Last year, fashion darling Diane Kruger made a sartorial impression for her turn in the jury, and this year, it's Nicole's time to shine. From an impressively structured pompadour ponytail to her signature watermelon-pink pout, see all of Nicole's Cannes beauty looks up close from every angle.

Marion Cotillard donned a strapless Vivienne Westwood gown to join Colin Firth at the Chopard lunch as part of the festivities for the Cannes Film Festival last night. Marion and Colin celebrated the jewellery brand, which is responsible for creating the festival's Palme d'Or trophy, as well as best actor and actress awards. The celebratory lunch comes at an interesting time for the brand since it was revealed that $1 million worth of Chopard jewels were stolen from a hotel room in Cannes earlier yesterday. The jewellery was to be loaned as red carpet pieces to the stars at the festival. Many drew comparisons between last night's burglary and the film, The Bling Ring, which coincidentally debuted at the festival yesterday, since the movie is based on the real-life case of teenage burglars who robbed the Hollywood homes of celebrities.

As a juror at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Nicole Kidman has official duties that include viewing films and helping to select the eventual top dogs. Unofficially? Looking good. We're keeping an eye on the Aussie icon's style to see what sort of moments she has up her sleeve.

Today, Calvin Klein officially unveiled Rooney Mara as the face of its newest fragrance, Downtown — but the brand got an early start celebrating the news last night. Despite the rain, stars including Rooney, Carey Mulligan, Nicole Kidman, and Skyfall's Naomie Harris stopped by Calvin Klein's beachside bash at the Cannes Film Festival yesterday evening.

Rooney marked the new partnership alongside Francisco Costa, the creative director of Calvin Klein Collection, at the party, which was also hosted by Belvedere and IWC. Inside the dimly lit and intimate soiree, she chatted with producer Harvey Weinstein, while Carey mingled by the DJ booth before making an early departure. Nicole also made time in her Cannes schedule to attend. All three actresses are busy working this week. Carey's The Great Gatsby premiered on opening night; Rooney's latest film, Ain't Them Bodies Saints, will also debut later this week; and Nicole is serving as a member of the film festival's official jury.
