Lupita Nyong’o, Marion Cotillard, Cate Blanchett and more posed behind the scenes at Cannes 2018, seen here in elegant black and white shots by photographer Greg Williams.

From May 8 to 19, directors, actors, and critics of the film-making world turned up at the 71st Cannes International Film Festival. This time around, Cate Blanchett was President of the Jury, which also featured names such as Benicio del Toro, Ursula Meier, Bertrand Bonello, and Chloë Sevigny.

Stars took to the red carpet in their festival best. Before that, though, British photographer Greg Williams captured a few familiar faces in intimate, behind-the-scenes shots. One thing tied them together – they were draped in Chopard jewellery, from resplendent earrings to statement rings and necklaces.

To add a touch of old-school glam, these pictures are presented in all their monochrome glory. Scroll through to relive the scenes.
