Cannes 08 tapis rouge - [French do it better]

Cannes has been doing better and better, and getting more attention from the fashion crowd, it's not hard to understand since the red carpet we see here is 100 times more tasteful than the Oscar. Blame it to the European, they improved so much on the red carpet so much so that they can easily beat the shit outta the Hollywood "stars".
