We already covered opening night fashion so let's check in on days 2 and 3. Unfortunately we can't be as comprehensive as we once were in previous years. We used to live on the site Zimbio when they released enormous day-by-day galleries including basically every celebrity, whether they were famous internationally or not and every red carpet shot, whether or not it was a particularly good one including non-glam people like old film directors. They've done away with that section and now you have to look for specific people (so you have to magically know who might have attended each screening). Otherwise you can only see highlights (like every other site) which means you see the same very famous celebrities over and over again. And you lose some of the coolest sightings of rising stars or obscure stars from various countries who are not that famous outside of their home country. Which sucks for internationally minded cinephiles like us...  Ah well. On to the red carpet premiere lewks we did see...

Who gets your vote for best dressed from the first few days?

Diane Kruger, Jodie Turner Smith, Elsa Zylberstein, Andie MacDowellPaz Vega, Abigail Breslin, Isabelle Huppert, Haley Lu RichardsonMaggie Gyllenhaal, Melanie Thierry, MJ Rodriguez, and Melanie Laurent

I'm partial to Andie MacDowell's elegance in white, Melanie Laurent's chic pantsuit, and Maggie Gyllenhaal in deep red.

But sometimes the best looks are reserved for off-premiere such as press events or the various parties, like so...

Tilda Swinton x 2, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Marion Cotillard

Tilda's eye ribbon (?) sure is attention grabbing as are Jodie Turner-Smith bold diagonals via Gucci.
