The Venice International Film Festival is the oldest film festival in the world and is one of the “big three” alongside Cannes and Berlin. With such a prestigious title comes a flock of celebrities, actors promoting their new films to models and bloggers alike, dressed top-to-toe in stunning gowns and extravagant jewellery.
