It’s a seriously busy time of year if you happen to be a movie star: the awards ceremonies are coming in thick and fast (culminating in the 2026 Oscars next month), and then there’s the film festival circuit to think about—plus fashion week, if your on-screen efforts have netted you a brand contract or two.
In recent days, the likes of Pamela Anderson, Charli XCX and Dua Lipa have all been jetting into Germany, where the 2026 Berlinale is underway. Michelle Yeoh kicked things off by collecting an honorary Golden Bear—clad in fresh-from-the-runway Armani Privé—while Dua opted for an especially cheeky Chanel number to support her man Callum Turner at the premiere of his film, Rosebud Pruning. It was far from the only Chanel moment on the red carpet in Berlin, where the Blazy effect has been on full display.
