Some big-name stars in Hollywood have travelled north for the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), bringing top-level fashion to red carpets, movie premieres and after parties in the city. The 49th edition of the event, held from Sept. 5 to 15, gives an opportunity for A-list celebrities and indie film darlings to turn heads and generate some serious awards season buzz in the process.
From Selena Gomez to Pamela Anderson, there’s been no shortage of star sightings for movie fans. Stars like Jennifer Lopez, Sydney Sweeney and Angelina Jolie all brought out top-tier looks when it comes to celebrity style. But which other stars have worn head-turning looks that range anywhere between elegant and enchanting? Below are some of the best looks celebrities have worn at this year’s festival in Toronto.
Denzel Washington and family
Denzel Washington stepped out for a rare red carpet appearance for the premiere of The Piano Lesson, alongside wife Pauletta Washington and their three kids. The 69-year-old actor wore a casual black blazer over a matching T-shirt and slacks, while his 73-year-old wife looked elegant in a blush pink suit and pearl earrings. Their kids — John David, 40, Katia, 36 and Malcolm, 33 — all shined in neutral-coloured suits as well.
Naomi Watts
Naomi Watts opted for an all-black look for the premiere of The Friend, wearing a Christian Dior sheer dress on the red carpet. The 55-year-old actress looked elegant in the long-sleeve piece, which was adorned with tassels and showed off a matching black underwear set. She accessorized with chunky black boots and a striking red lip.
Kaia Gerber
Kaia Gerber wore a black halter-neck dress for the Saturday Night premiere. The 23-year-old daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford looked elegant in the gown, which featured a plunging neckline and flowed to the floor.
Rachel Sennott
Rachel Sennott went for old Hollywood glamour on the red carpet for the premiere of Saturday Night. The 28-year-old actress wore a strapless black velvet dress that fell to the floor. She accessorized with a silver rhinestone choker necklace and a soft make-up look.
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez celebrated the premiere of her film Emilia Peréz in a custom sequinned look by Rodarte.

Zoe Saldaña
Zoe Saldaña’s high-fashion Armani Privé nude illusion gown hit all the high notes at the Emilia Peréz premiere. The strategically placed lace appliqués and ruffled details on the back created a show-stopping red carpet moment and one of the most memorable looks from this year’s festival.
Gabrielle Union
Gabrielle Union’s lipstick printed tea-length Prada gown was an unexpected choice for the premiere of her film Riff Raff. The fun print and playful ponytail were the perfect pair for a daytime premiere — and an example of how there are no fashion rules when it comes to a TIFF red carpet.
Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie went for understated glamour at the premiere of Without Blood. The 49-year-old actress, who directed the film, looked elegant in a black Dolce & Gabbana dress that featured a slight mermaid hem, paired with classic, shoulder-length gloves.
Pamela Anderson
Pamela Anderson wore a monochrome look to the TIFF after party of her film The Last Showgirl. The 57-year-old actress paired her sleeveless knit turtleneck top with a knee-length black skirt and classic black pumps for the event. Despite portraying a Las Vegas dancer, Anderson kept her glam to a minimum. The Canadian star looked fresh-faced in little to no makeup.
Cate Blanchett
Cate Blanchett arrived to the TIFF Tribute Awards in a glamorous patterned Givenchy gown with architectural bodice detail. The 55-year-old star pulled off the high-fashion look, paired with statement Louis Vuitton jewelry.
Dakota Johnson
Dakota Johnson showed off her bohemian-inspired style in a flora-inspired Gucci slip dress for the Loser Baby dance party at TIFF. The 34 year old’s ’90s-inspired mixed-media look was the perfect transitional piece for the late-summer film festival and a standout from the TIFF party circuit.
Salma Hayek
Salma Hayek wowed in an asymmetrical sequin gown at the TIFF premiere of Without Blood. The Gucci ensemble showed off the 58-year-old star’s infamous curves and brought some much-needed sparkle to the TIFF red carpet.
Sydney Sweeney
Sydney Sweeney showed up to the premiere of her new movie, Eden, wearing a cream-coloured 1950s-inspired dress from Erdem. The 26-year-old actress looked stunning in the floral-embellished gown, which featured a circle skirt that hit at her ankles and a cape covering her shoulders.
Malala Yousafzai
Malala Yousafzai went bright and beautiful for the premiere of “The Last of the Sea Women.” The 27-year-old activist wore a traditional South Asian pantsuit called a shalwar-kameez in teal, paired with white, lace-trimmed pants. She completed the look with a matching teal hijab.
Cate Blanchett
Cate Blanchett proved her star power at her “In Conversation With…” event, wearing a powerful fire red jumpsuit. The comfortable outfit was half buttoned up with its sleeves pushed up her forearms; a wide-legged pant and loose belt left the 55-year-old actress looking effortlessly beautiful.
Lupita Nyong’o
Lupita Nyong’o channelled Disney’s Princess Tiana for the premiere of “The Wild Robot,” wearing a light green flowing gown. The 41-year-old actress twirled on the red carpet, showing off the sleeveless sheer dress and her matching open-toe heels.
Karen Gillan
Karen Gillan shined in yellow at the premiere of The Life of Chuck, wearing a mini dress that not only showed off her toned legs but also revealed she’s expecting her first baby. The 36-year-old actress’ outfit cradled her baby bump on the red carpet, with one arm draped by fabric from the dress.

Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez flowed into TIFF’s “Road to the Golden Globes Party” wearing a nude-coloured ruffled dress from Chloe.

Demi Moore opted for a menswear-inspired look for the premiere of The Substance. The 61-year-old actress wore a floor-length Thom Browne skirt featuring a silk cumberbund, white tuxedo shirt and black tie. She accessorized with Tiffany & Co. diamond vine drop earrings, Jean Schlumberger’s Sea Star Brooch on her hip and two statement diamond rings.
Brenda Song
Brenda Song rocked the red carpet for the premiere of The Last Showgirl, wearing a vintage Stella McCartney gown for the event. The 36-year-old actress stunned in the black dress that featured hip cutouts and a scoop neckline embellished with five hanging diamond necklace-like pieces.
Kiernan Shipka
Kiernan Shipka also opted for black for the red carpet of the premiere of The Last Showgirl. The 24-year-old actress wore a sleeveless gown from Elie Saab for the event, which featured a sleek skirt that fell to the floor and a see-through crochet bodice.
Jamie Lee Curtis
Jamie Lee Curtis added a pop of colour for her outfit for the premiere of The Last Showgirl. The 65-year-old actress wore a bright red sheer, long-sleeve buttoned shirt. The oversized top was tucked into a long black pencil skirt that featured a snakeskin pattern.
Florence Pugh
Florence Pugh looked grandiose at the premiere of We Live In Time, wearing a large pink couture gown from Tamara Ralph. The strapless piece featured a V-shaped neckline that was adorned with a large black ribbon and flower, leaving the 28-year-old actress looking like a Barbie doll cake.
