Léa Seydoux has turned her relationship with Louis Vuitton into one of the most recognizable partnerships on the red carpet. The French actress became an ambassador for the fashion house in 2016, and its designs have accompanied her to film festivals, premieres and major awards ceremonies ever since. Her wardrobe can move from sharp tailoring to elaborate crystal covered gowns without losing its distinctive character. Classic French elegance remains at the center, but unexpected shapes, textures and details keep the looks contemporary. Over the years, Seydoux has shown just how versatile a long term relationship between an actress and a fashion house can become.
At the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, Seydoux demonstrated that versatility through several contrasting looks. For the premiere of Under the Silver Lake, she selected an off the shoulder Louis Vuitton column gown featuring a bold geometric pattern. At the screening of Girls of the Sun, she wore another fitted design with a high slit and dramatic neckline. That appearance carried additional significance as Seydoux joined dozens of women on the Cannes steps in a demonstration calling attention to gender inequality within the film industry.
Returning to Cannes in 2019 for Oh Mercy!, Seydoux moved away from the traditional evening gown. Tailored blue trousers, a fitted printed top and a defined waist created a polished alternative to conventional premiere dressing. Red lipstick and Chopard jewelry completed a look that felt sophisticated without relying on elaborate volume.
Her formalwear became increasingly dramatic at subsequent events. At the 2020 Academy Awards, Seydoux appeared in a sculptural white Louis Vuitton gown with a plunging neckline and heavily pleated skirt. For the Vanity Fair celebration afterward, she changed into a flowing red dress. At the 2021 premiere of No Time to Die, she embraced even greater spectacle in a shimmering silver Louis Vuitton cape gown covered with crystals.
The 2022 BAFTA Awards produced another intricate creation. Seydoux wore a strapless black velvet Louis Vuitton gown with a sparkling embellished skirt, continuing her preference for silhouettes that combine simple lines with labor intensive detailing.
