Kate Winslet and Jane Fonda step out in chic power suits for L’Oreal’s Lights on Women Award event during the 2023 Cannes Film Festival on Friday (May 26) in Cannes, France.
The two award-winning actresses hit up the event alongside many other stars including Eva Longoria, Leïla Bekhti, Fatoumata Guinea Kaba, Renata Notni, Anushka Sharma, Taís Araújo, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau with his wife, Nukaka Coster-Waldau.
The Short Films Jury – Charlotte Le Bon, Ana Lily Amirpour, Ildikó Enyedi, Shlomi Elkabetz, and Karidja Touré – were also seen on the black carpet for the event.
Created in 2021, the Lights on Women Award “attempts to create a path for women in film to advance their careers while also addressing the industry’s under-representation of women.”
Kate is the presenter of the award, and in a statement shared that at “every festival, a new generation of female directors remind us of the power and importance of female storytelling. I’m delighted to return to the Festival de Cannes with L’Oréal Paris to support women filmmakers.”
She added, “It’s a privilege to be part of something that was specifically created to support and nurture women in film, and to be able to showcase their skills and to celebrate their unique work. I am extremely excited to watch their stories unfold in the Cannes Short Film selection for this year.”
Earlier in the day, Eva was seen in a stunning sheer dress for the latest Cannes premiere.
