The Many Bags of Stars at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival

If you are in the mood to ease into the post-holiday work week with photos of a bunch of rich, gorgeous supermodels walking up and down yacht gangplanks in the French Riviera, then boy do I have some good news for you. The 2015 Cannes Film Festival has been going on for approximately the past 3.5 months, and now that it’s over, we have pics of all the fabulous attendees–and their bags, of course.

SPOILER ALERT: There’s a lot of Hermès and Chanel.

Alessandra Mastronardi
Chanel Minaudiere

What’s a big, glamorous international event without a Chanel party to go along with it?

Anja Rubik
Chloé Faye Bag

For Cannes, supermodels are imported to the south of France by the dozen.

With them, they bring a lot of very fashionable bags.

Chanel Iman
Chanel Mini Bag

A supermodel in a flowing dress, disembarking a yacht while carrying a very expensive handbag, is the definitive image of Cannes off the red carpets.

Daniela Braga
Chanel Classic Flap Bag

If you’re not familiar with Daniela, you probably will be soon; she’s one of Victoria’s Secret’s new angels.

Dita Von Teese

We’re not sure who made Dita’s bag, but she’s spectacular enough to include on her own.

Emanuelle Beart
Ralph Lauren Mini Ricky Shoulder Bag
$881 via farfetch.com

Naming your baby Emanuelle virtually guarantees that she is going to be an incredibly chic French actress. Even if you’re not French.

Erin O’Connor
Alexander McQueen Legend Tote
$2,345 via Neiman Marcus

Erin is clearly not in Cannes to get sunburned.

Dolce is always a Cannes style favorite.

This is one of Eva’s favorite bags–we’ve seen her carry it numerous times.

Eva Longoria
Victoria Beckham City Victoria Bag
$2,695 via mytheresa.com

Eva and Victoria are close; it must be great to have friends who design beautiful handbags.

Irina Shayk
Hermès Birkin

Contemplate, for a moment, how commonplace models with Birkins at Cannes must be.

Izabel Goulart
Fendi 3Baguette Bag

Izabel is clearly very excited to be at this Fendi party.

Joan Smalls
Nancy Gonzalez Crocodile Flap Clutch
$1,350 via Saks

If I could shape-shift into anyone, it’d be Joan Smalls. To me, she is perfect.

Karlie Kloss
Mansur Gavriel Canvas Backpack
$675 via Barneys

This bag is a smart choice for travel–it’s lightweight, roomy and easy to carry hands-free. Of course, Karlie knows a thing or two about travel.

Kelly Brook
Chanel Classic Flap Bag

This photo is so perfectly Cannes that it seems like a photo shoot outtake.

Kendall Jenner
Céline Nano Luggage Tote

This is a strange bag choice for the outfit, but sure, okay, why not?

Kendall Jenner
Marc Jacobs Incognito Bag
$1,744 via farfetch.com

This bag choice, on the other hand, works beautifully.

Lupita Nyong’o

I’m not sure who made Lupita’s clutch, but let’s take a moment to bask in her very Lupita-ness, shall we?

Mary J. Blige
Gucci Jackie Soft Python Tote
$3,990 via Gucci

Mary performed at the ever-popular amfAR Gala, and she brought her handbags A-game to do it.

Mary J. Blige
Hermès Birkin

Most of the bags we saw at Cannes this year were neutrals, so this orange Birkin was a welcome change of pace.

Natasha Poly
Chanel 5×5 Minaudiere

This is the kind of dress it’s difficult to pull off unless you’re a supermodel; luckily, Natasha is.

Ornella Muti
Fendi Demi-Jour Shoulder Bag
$2,050 via Nordstrom

I’m supportive of the white shirtdress/colorful bag look.

Rossy de Palma
Hermès Birkin

Cannes during the film festival probably has the world’s highest concentration of Birkins.

Sarah Ferguson
Christian Louboutin Loubibow Clutch
$925 via Saks

Cannes isn’t all models. It is also European aristocracy.

Sarah Ferguson
Hermès Lindy Bag

Personally, I think the Lindy is under-appreciated in celebrity circles.

More models disembarking yachts.

Looking at this photo makes me very nervous that something important has fallen out of Sophie’s purse.

Sylvie Meis
Chanel Reissue Flap Bag

Sylvie looks psyched to be at Cannes, and we don’t blame her.

Victoria Silvstedt
Alaïa Laser-Cut Tote
$2,880 via Net-a-Porter

Last, but certainly not least, it’s not Cannes without Victoria Silvstedt, who seems to live in a state of perpetual Cannes.
