Golden girl! Cate Blanchett stuns in a puffy metallic gown as she ... trends now

Cate Blanchett was every inch the silver screen queen as she stepped out at the Cannes Film Festival premiere of her new film Rumours on Saturday night. 

The Australian actress, 54, stunned in a puffy gold gown that featured dramatic pleating on the bodice, beaded shoulders and a dramatic fishtail skirt.

She completed her look with gold drop earrings and a large ring on her wedding finger. 

Cate beamed and waved at photographers and adoring onlookers as she swanned down the red carpet with the cast and directors of Rumours - which tells the story of world leaders who meet at the G7 but get lost in the forest while trying to write a joint statement.
