Parisian Marion Cotillard and Argentine-French actress Berenice Bejo looked amazing in their stunning dresses on Friday night at the 38th French Cesar Awards Ceremony.
The two stars opted for rather different styles but both still wowed as they attended France’s equivalent to the Oscars at the Chatelet Theatre, in Paris, France.
Screen star: Marion Cotillard looked sublime in her strapless dress as she attended the 38th French Cesar Awards in Paris, France, on Friday
Emerald star: Berenice Bejo also looked sublime as she arrived at the ceremony in a floor length green dress
Marion, 37, wore a daring strapless ivory and black dress that featured thick stripes.
The Dark Knight Rises star kept her accessories simple and only wore a silver watch with a diamond encrusted necklace.
With her hair pinned up the beautiful brunette kept warm with a rather casual double breasted black coat.

Award winning couple: The Argentine-French actress was joined by her husband and director Michel Hazanavicius
Berenice wore a much more elegant dress as she graced the red carpet in a eye-catching green floor length gown.
Bejo, who won a César Award for Best Actress for her role in The Artist, kept the garden theme going by wearing a gold belt shaped like leafs.
With her long mane falling over her shoulders she added some colour by clutching a small pink purse.

Against the grain: French actress Charlotte Gainsbourg bucked the trend by wearing a short gold skirt
Neither Marion nor Berenice were winners on the night but Rust and Bone, which Cotillard stars in, picked up three gongs including Best Original Score.
Hollywood star Kevin Costner received an honorary Cesar for his lifetime of work on films such as Dances with Wolves, The Untouchables, JFK and The Bodyguard.
Academy president Alain Terzian said in a statement that the actor and director created 'films that made us dream', and the award was for his 'fabulous contribution to the history of cinema.'

French actor Lambert Wilson added some comic relief as he performed a musical number on stage in a pair of silver high heels.
