The Venice Film Festival has descended upon the small island of Lido, where Hollywood A-listers typically travel by boat every September. George and Amal Clooney, Penélope Cruz, Robert Pattinson, Patrick Schwarzenegger, and others will attend the 10-day red carpet event this year, all dressed in their finest formal attire. Additionally, certain films will be viewed.
Last year, Julia Roberts lent Amanda Seyfried her Dario Vitale Versace suit, Ayo Edibiri made her Venice debut in a custom red strapless dress by Chanel that teased Matthieu Blazy’s new direction, and Greta Lee did the same for Jonathan Anderson’s Dior.

The opening nite of the festival will feature Danny Boyle’s “Ink,” an adaptation of the acclaimed play that chronicles the early years of Rupert Murdoch (Guy Pearce) and his acquisition of the London tabloid paper “The Sun.
