When the Cannes Film Festival line-up was announced this morning, we weren't thinking film, we were thinking fashion. And once we saw that Kristen Stewart's On the Road had been selected as part of the schedule, we got a bit carried away...

Now this is one girl we'd love to see get glammed-up on the Croisette. (Let's not forget, Cannes calls for BIG gowns.)

What might Kristen Stewart wear to the Cannes Film Festival We'd like to think Kristen would wear one of these: (L-R) Balenciaga, Marios Schwab, Prabal Gurung, J. Mendel, Stella McCartney (all Autumn/Winter 2012) Photos: Getty

As Kristen's the current face of their fragrance, our money lies with Balenciaga. Although the fashion house haven't showcased any Cannes-worthy gowns over the past few seasons, we'd love to see K-Stew in a full-length version of the red and black leather number above...

Check out all the gowns from the 2011 Cannes Film Festival here:

Cannes Film Festival 2011

 What a dress! Thurman saved the best until last at the closing ceremony of Cannes. She looked stunning in this cobalt blue gown by Armani.
Jane Fonda
 Fonda completed her run of figure-hugging gowns with a dazzling, gold number.
Faye Dunaway
 Dunaway was suited and booted for the closing ceremony. And who is that rather handsome man on her arm?
Rosario Dawson
 Rosario Dawson looked beautiful in blue at the premiere of Les Bien-Aimes.
Karolina Kurkova
 Kurkova showed off another stunning gown at the closing ceremony. We love her vintage inspired hair and makeup too.
Maiwenn Le Besco
 The director picked up an award for Polisse in a gorgeous, red design.
Eva Herzigova
 Only Eva could strut up the red carpet in a pair of super short shorts. We love the killer red platforms too.
Kirsten Dunst
 Dunst's Rodarte gown has to be in the top five best dresses of Cannes this year. She looked gorgeous at the Melancholia premiere.
Kirsten Dunst
 Dunst dressed down for her Melancholia photo call in a chiffon Chloé dress. Top marks for finding the perfect lip colour to match this difficult shade.

 Gainsbourg flashed her baby bump in a sheer gown at the premiere of Melancholia.
Jodie Foster
 Foster stepped out in a beautiful Balenciaga gown at the premiere of Melancholia.
Milla Jovovich

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
 Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie brought some serious star power to the Cannes red carpet, when they stepped out at the premiere of Brad's latest film, Tree of Life. And while Mr Pitt was dapper in tux and bow tie - orange-tint glasses excluded - Ms Jolie went all out in an all-encompassing Atelier Versace gown.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
 Brad and Ange made their grand Cannes entrance by walking down the red carpet staircase outside the Palais des Festivals - and check out the thigh-high split in Angelina's frock.

 Blonde bombshell Victoria Silvstedt cut a striking sillhouette in this shimmering silver number - but it was a tad OTT for our taste.
Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain
 It's not just the A-list ladies that are loving the head-to-toe white wash this season: Brad Pitt tapped the trend in his summery suit. The actor was joined by Jessica Chastain in a scarlet Oscar de la Renta dress at the photocall for Tree of Life.

 Day five of Cannes Film Festival was another day of outstanding style. Chinese actress Fan Bing Bing pulled out all the stops at The Artist premiere, in this stunning Atelier Versace gown.

Li Bing Bing
 Li Bing Bing was seriously bridal at The Artist premiere, in this theatrical Georges Chakra Couture gown.
Elizabeth Olsen
 She may not be quite as recognisable as her older Olsen twin siblings, but Elizabeth Olsen is quietly carving herself out a serious name in the film industry. And naturally she was supporting her sisters by wearing a dress from their collection The Row, at the Martha Marcy May Marlene photocall.
Vanessa Hudgens
 High School Musical starlet Vanessa Hudgens was looking all grown up at the Cannes Grey Goose Vodka party, in a shimmering Roberto Cavalli frock.

Penelope Cruz
 Before her big premiere appearance, Penelope Cruz got the flashbulbs going by flaunting her seriously impressive post-pregnancy figure in this navy velvet Stella McCartney dress, at the Pirates of the Caribbean photocall.
Vanessa Hudgens
 Vanessa Hudgens is proving to be Cannes resident party girl so far this season. The actress was snapped enjoying herself at the Vitamin Water bash in this boho one-shoulder Fendi dress.

 The socialite lit up the red carpet in this colourful creation.

Salma Hayek
 Hayek never disappoints with her statement red carpet style at Cannes. She embraced the glitz and glamour of the festival in this crystal embroidered Gucci Première gown. Our favourite look of the opening night.
Rachel McAdams
 What a dress! McAdams arrived at the premiere for her latest film, Midnight in Paris in this beautiful lace and tulle design by Marchesa. A brave choice but she looked ever the Hollywood star.

Rachel McAdams
 McAdams followed suit in an all white dress from Maxime Simoens Couture at a photo call on the first day of the festival.
Salma Hayek and Antionio Banderas
 We can't decide if Salma's daytime Gucci look is a style hit or miss? If anyone can pull off the ruffled sleeved dress, it's Hayek. She posed with Banderas at a photo call for Puss in Boots.
Blake Lively
 Current Chanel muse and general all-round fashion darling Blake Lively led the way at the Chanel Cruise Collection show in a glittering black jacket and super-short tulip skirt - all Chanel Couture, naturellement.
