Besides Kate Hudson and Gwyneth Paltrow, Marion Cotillard was spotted at the Toronto Film Festival in September 2012.
The French actress attended the premiere of her new film, ‘Rust & Bone,’ in a structured origami-like grey midi from Christian Dior, which she capped off with the daintiest, most feminine, pointy-toe wedges we’ve ever seen.

What do you think of Marion’s look here? From the coif down to the chaussure, would you say the French beauty nailed it?
Or did the mix of textures (heavy tweed-like dress to satin shoes) cause her a fashion fail? Would you say she picked the right heels to go with her dress? Or should she have worn a different pair?

Her outfit (shoes included) is from Christian Dior’s Fall 2012 Couture Collection. To say those sleek pointies look very interesting would be an understatement.
The Christian Dior Fall 2012 Couture Collection was designed by Raf Simons, marking his debut as the creative director for Dior. The collection received critical acclaim for its modern take on Dior’s classic silhouettes, showcasing Simons’ minimalist yet elegant approach to haute couture.
We’re dying to see her shoes up close. Sadly, we can’t even find a single product image of these heels online. However, judging from how they look on Marion’s feet, this style combines satin and plastic, finished with an odd mix of wedge and kitten heels on the bottom.

In addition to the striking yellow PVC and blue satin colors, the shoe design includes a pointed toe with a transparent panel that adds a modern, edgy twist
There’s nothing like this pair online, so if you want these shoes, you can get the real deal, or you simply don’t.
After discussing Cotillard’s stylish appearance at the Toronto Film Festival in Dior, it’s worth noting that her relationship with the fashion house wasn’t always smooth sailing. Fast-forward to 2017, and Cotillard made headlines again, but this time at the Cannes Film Festival, where her choice to wear a black Jean Paul Gaultier Couture dress raised eyebrows. The decision marked a significant departure from her usual Dior ensembles, which she had donned for nearly a decade.
The reason? Marion Cotillard was reportedly dropped by Dior’s new creative director, Maria Grazia Chiuri, just days before the event. Chiuri, who took over Dior in 2016, was aiming for a more modern and youthful direction for the brand, and Cotillard—despite her long-standing partnership—no longer fit that vision. The sudden shift was said to have upset the actress, leading her to make a bold fashion statement on the Cannes red carpet.
2012 was not the first time Marion wore Dior to the Toronto Film Festival. Two years earlier, she paired Dior buckled ankle boots with a dress by Lefranc Ferrant.
