\"STYLE\"<\/p>\n

Every film festival has its signature style. At Cannes it\u2019s a strict black tie dress code (see-through or excessively voluminous gowns are banned<\/a> \u2014 far too d\u00e9class\u00e9), while Venice is more relaxed: stars usually grace the carpet sporting something more avant-garde paired with sunglasses and a light sheen of perspiration. Telluride in Colorado is all self-consciously casual, with celebs<\/a> showing that really they\u2019re just like us in their old denim jackets and big autumnal jumpers. <\/p>\n

At the London Film Festival<\/a>, anything goes. The red carpet<\/a> has been rolled out on the Southbank, and born witness to everything from Barry Keoghan\u2019s baggy jeans to Greta Gerwig\u2019s ultimate power suit. Here are the best dressed celebs so far \u2014 and the strangest.<\/p>\n

The best dressed celebs at the London Film Festival<\/p>\n

The naked dress trend lived to see another day (d\u00e9sol\u00e9, Cannes), as sported to perfection by Mia Goth in a powdery violet chiffon dress from London\u2019s hottest designer, Conner Ives. <\/p>\n

Ayo Edibiri looked like an Ancient Greek statue in a slippery white satin Chanel gown, while Elle Fanning<\/a> nailed the oft-maligned dress and trousers look courtesy of Simone Rocha. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott swapped suits for leather, joining many stars dressed in head-to-toe black. This only made Sir Ian Mckellen\u2019s rainbow-coloured knitted scarf all the more joyous.<\/p>\n

… And the strangest looks<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not a no, but we are intrigued by Claire Foy\u2019s decision to dress as a very opaque trapezoid. Meanwhile, Barry Keoghan pitched up to Hamnet in baggy jeans and box-fresh white trainers looking like someone\u2019s reluctant younger brother who was dragged along to a family friend\u2019s party. <\/p>\n

There was something very Theresa May about Kirsten Dunst\u2019s red jacket and houndstooth trouser combination, while Jeremy Strong\u2019s olive green corduroy baseball cap was possibly one olive green corduroy item too far. <\/p>\n

Bradley Cooper\u2019s look was in dire need of an iron, and Ben Mendehlson in a powdery blue faux fur coat with his pet chihuahua? What the hell, sure.<\/p>\n
