white and gold formal dress Jovani 42301 - Long Lace Trumpet The silhouette follows the body closely through the bust and hips 54452 Sherri Hill

Many of the most outrageous ensembles were created by the supers, the elite fashion darlings of the time

It's all about infusing old-world elements and new, current silhouettes: This look's full midi skirt, touch of blush, and barely-there accessories make it far more apropos for parties to come than good times past

Style with strappy heels and a compact clutch for a refined night-out ensemble, or add an oversized blazer when the temperature drops

These are the picks that stayed hidden and held up after hours of wear (including plenty of dancing)

A dozen looks from the collection will be revealed in the coming days on the famous steps of the Palais des Festivals in Cannes
