Cate Blanchett’s latest Cannes Film Festival 2024 dress appeared to resemble the Palestinian flag.

When the Star actress, 55, took to the red carpet for The Apprentice premiere last night, fans were convinced that her Jean Paul Gaultier dress was specifically designed to show solidarity for Palestine amid the ongoing bombardment of Gaza at the hands of Israel.

Suspicion arose when Cate waved around the skirt of her dress to expose an unusual bright green lining

Coupled with a black front and a light back against the crimson backdrop of the red carpet, fans were convinced the gown was intended to represent the colours of the Palestinian flag.

Vogue Arabia’s editor Livia Firth took to social media with a snap of the red carpet moment, and seemed to think it was indeed a pro-Palestine flag from the A-lister, as she said: ‘I LOVE U CATE 🙌 cannes #cannesfilmfestival when the carpet has meaning.’

Other fans flocked to support Cate, as @ZahiraJaser said: ‘When I grow up I want to become Cate Blanchett, and have the subtlety to think the carpet is already red, so I can just wear a black & white dress with green lining to make such a strong point.’

Sharing a photo of the look, @DrLoupis wrote: ‘Cate Blanchett at the Cannes Film Festival wearing a Palestine dress.’

Meanwhile, @D_ebotri said: ‘Cate Blanchett coordinated her outfit to look like the flag of Palestine on the red carpet in Cannes 👑 This woman.’

“There’s a Palestine that dwells inside all of us, a Palestine that needs to be rescued: a free Palestine where all people regardless of color, religion, or race coexist; a Palestine where the meaning of the word “occupation” is only restricted to what the dictionary says rather than those plenty of meanings and connotations of death, destruction, pain, suffering, deprivation, isolation and restrictions that Israel has injected the word with.”
