Venice Film Festival 2020: Actors' Outfits
“The world was moving too fast before that day, and the Universe has laws, which also govern us, as part of the Cosmos. Those laws made us stay home, like children who made a big mistake.”
This is how the awards ceremony of the Venice Film Festival opens in the year of Covid-19, with a reflection on the months we have left behind in this very particular year.
The Venice Film Festival 2020 is in fact not only one of the most important festivals in the film industry but it is also the first opportunity to return to the red carpet after months of quarantine. A way to dream again, with lightheartedness and carefreeness through art.
It is a woman who wins the Golden Lion at Venice 77 : Chloé Zhao with « Nomandland », produced and tailored for Frances McDormand , which tells the story of a woman who, faced with the economic crisis, decides to take a trip in a camper van to discover herself.
The Volpi Cup for best male performance goes to our Pierfrancesco Favino , for Padrenostro , who in accepting the award expressed a very moving dedication to young people and the future: «I dedicate the award to all the stars that will yet be born, and to the shining of eyes in the dark».
And it is precisely from Favino that we want to start analyzing the looks that struck us most on the red carpet of the 77 Venice Film Festival:
At the premiere of the film in which he stars, Padrenostro, he wears a tuxedo with a single-breasted anthracite gray jacket with black satin lapels. Elegant and original at the same time. On the evening of the awards ceremony he is impeccable in a Be Spoke suit by Armani .
Stefano Accorsi , actor of the closing film “Lasciami andare” wears a tuxedo from the Giorgio Armani collection. Essential and elegant.
For the premiere of the film “Amants” , Pierre Niney opted for the originality of a double-breasted jacket and trousers in anthracite grey, combined with a black shirt and a pair of lace-ups with side fastening. His French charm perfectly matches the designer the actor played: Yves Saint Laurent .
Spanish actor Miguel Ángel Silvestre opts for a look by Emporio Armani that projects us into the autumn season. The double-breasted jacket in Prince of Wales is worn over the original stretch satin shirt with crater collar.
At the presentation of “ Lacci ” Luigi Lo Cascio wears a very classic tuxedo which is however exquisitely original because it is worn oversized .
Actor Ahmed Malek in Valentino chooses a suit with an oversized double-breasted blazer, white pants and a white t-shirt. His total white look is fresh and chic, embellished with a shocking detail: the lace-up shoes with platform.
Ultimately, the men's looks at the 77 Venice Film Festival confirm the fashion trends of the year: perfectly tailored bespoke, relaxed style and a new interpretation of oversized tailoring.
