admin Marion Cotillard is just as comfortable nailing a role in an indie production as she is leading blockbuster films. That unique quality has earned her countless accolades, including Academy and Golden Globe Awards, throughout her decades-spanning career.
Cotillard, though, is not only be a formidable force on the screen, but also on the red carpet. She’s practically synonymous with the Cannes Film Festival, appearing at the ritzy event year after year in everything from show-stopping gowns to two-piece cropped sets. Over time, she has established a close bond with Chanel’s Virgine Viard, championing the brand’s frothy, dreamy designs on the main stage. In the mid-stages of her career, she served as a muse to Raf Simons during his tenure at Dior, and was the first person to wear pieces from the designer’s debut couture collection for the house.
