Benvenuto a Venezia! The Venice Film Festival 2025 kicks off this week, which means that Hollywood has landed in northeastern Italy. That’s right: Celebrities are boarding luxury speedboats and throwing fits on the Venetian canals as we speak.
The Venice red carpet events are only just beginning, but we’ve already seen some major menswear moments in the leap-up to the premieres: George and Amal Clooney dressed as summery as a vacation postcard, Jesse Plemons rocking boat shoes (prep is back!), and Adam Sandler palming a basketball in a classic Sandler fit.
And while we’re at it—some highlights from this year’s festival, which runs from August 27 to September 6, will include Noah Baumbach’s Jay Kelly, which stars Clooney and Sandler; Yorgos Lanthimos’s Bugonia with Emma Stone and Plemons; After the Hunt with Julia Roberts, Andrew Garfield, and Ayo Edebiri; and Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, which features Jacob Elordi as the canonical monster.
Scroll on to see all the celebrity menswear from the Venice Film Festival 2025 so far. Viva il cinema!
