Scarlett Johansson embraced seamless summertime style with her attire for the premiere of “Eleanor the Great” during the Cannes Film Festival on Tuesday. The film, starring June Squibb, marks the two-time Oscar-nominated actress’ directorial debut.
Johansson opted for a sleek, simple black shift dress with thin halter straps. The sleeveless look featured a midi hem with a square neckline. The silhouette created a formfitting look with loose fabric for ease of movement.

Along with the simple black dress, Johansson opted for a pair of pointed-toe black leather pumps. Her accessories included minimalist gold pieces of jewelry, including earrings, rings and a delicate bracelet, all of which served to complete her look.
At the premiere, Johansson was joined by her husband of nearly five years, Colin Jost. The “Saturday Night Live” writer styled a gray suit with a dark shirt, complementing Johansson’s ensemble and minimalist aesthetic.

Cannes Film Festival marks Johansson’s most high-profile “Eleanor the Great” promotional tour moment of 2025 thus far. Back in March, the actress joined Squibb to present at the 2025 Academy Awards, wearing vintage Mugler with De Beers jewels.
Following March’s Oscars ceremony, Johansson attended the Time 100 Gala wearing a black, sleeveless Tom Ford dress with Roberto Coin jewelry.
Johansson regularly collaborates with stylist Kate Young on her wardrobe for high-profile events. Young recently dressed Dakota Johnson and Julianne Moore for the Cannes Film Festival, as well.

Young was named WWD’s Best Stylist for the 2025 Style Awards back in January. The stylist spoke with WWD about how the cultural conversation between fashion and celebrity has changed over the years. “I really like women who inspire me, and this confluence of the most important fashion on the women who are representative of our time, our culture,” Young said.
“That confluence really does it for me. I appreciate camp and costume, but it’s not hot to me. What I think I’m good at is representing who people are or how they want to be perceived in a way that’s also relevant in the fashion world.”
