When It Comes to Cannes, Stars Are Either Team Sun Hat or Team Kerchief

French Riviera style is in full swing over at the Cannes Film Festival and attendees are channeling their inner Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot. Some, like Meryl Streep have embraced coastal suiting, favoring light, breezy pieces, while others like Anya Taylor-Joy have leaned hard into Old Hollywood glamour. No matter what style is speaking to them, many stars are breaking out their finest headwear for the occasion. But that begs the question: kerchief or sun hat?

Team Sun Hat has some fierce advocates. Taylor-Joy donned an enormous Jacquemus topper upon her arrival at Hôtel Martinez, and wore another straw hat around her neck the following day for Furiosa promotion; Margaret Qualley channeled her mother, Andie MacDowell in Four Weddings and a Funeral in an oversized Chanel hat, affixed with a brooch; And Yseult paid homage to Christian Dior’s New Look with a black straw hat.

Meanwhile, Hunter Schafer has championed the kerchief on multiple occasions this week. While out about town, she donned an extreme cashmere scarf, but she went full-throttle milkmaid during the Kinds of Kindness photo call, wearing a custom Prada look complete with a matching head scarf.

Obviously, the kerchief and the sun hat each have their own appeal, but they also both bring the drama. Hopefully we’ll be seeing more of both beyond the Riviera this summer.
