I thought I had the four best dressed women of the weekend last night but I completely changed my mind this morning. These are the ladies who got it right this week.

1. Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann. Both Giulia and I are obsessed with the designer and his latest collections and nothing can make me happier than seeing Tilda wear so much of it. If only let her hair down and worn a different pair of shoes this would be a perfect look.

2. Nicole Richie in Halston. Nicole always dresses very nicely but she's been a little boring as of late. I love this matte sequin number with the gathered waist and the splashes of red. And she accessorised it so well too!

3. Beyoncé in Roberto Cavalli. Only Queen B can make Cavalli classy. The shape is simple but very sexy and it accentuates her bump in a chic way. I love the gold detailing on the sides and the big chunky hoops but I'm not a fan of the bracelets over the sleeves.

4. Kate Winslet in Stella McCartney. Even though she's worn a very similar dress before I am still into this look. Red and body-con require a lot of courage but Kate pulls it off in such a classy (and sexy) way.

So far, the best adjective to describe this year's Cannes festival in terms of fashion is inconsistent. There have been great moments by Cate Blanchett and Carey Mulligan, and even a more unexpected Beckinsale one (in Balmain today). But there have also been pretty bad moments courtesy of Eva Longoria and anyone else who wore the boring new Gucci Première. And to add up to the inconsistency, Elsa Pataky, a Spanish actress, surprised everyone looking dashing in a ruffled Fendi jumpsuit. The cleverest part of this choice was the fact that the jumpsuit in question had ruffles both at the front and back, something pretty handy when you're photographed from either side at will.

Also today, I found Cate Blanchett on the new cover of W magazine. In the spread inside, which is not to be missed, Blanchett donned another jumpsuit of a similar features this time by Chloé. This got me thinking about the tricky nature of jumpsuits and how much easier it seems to pull of in a jersey or silk of this champagne-meets-khaki kind of hue. I found two other similar, more casual jumpsuits by Halston and Stella McCartney that confirmed my theory.

What do you think of the jumpsuit trend? Would you wear one?

I'm off.
