Surrounded by a sea of photographers dressed in black-tie, the celebrity gowns on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet often steal the spotlight. But just like last year, we’re paying just as much attention to the ensembles that are worn before the glamorous celebration: the undeniably chic celebrity airport outfits. After all, summer is right around the corner, and several of us have plans to get out of town. Who better to draw inspiration from than the always-traveling actors and models who have recently been spotted dashing through the terminals at Nice Airport?

Elle Fanning kicked off the star-studded travel ’fits with a comfortable yet polished roomy white trousers paired with fashion flip-flops—and—the secret to winning airport style—sleek, chic luggage. Fanning picked a navy set from Away to store all of her travel needs.

That’s just one of the many copy-worthy ensembles on our radar. Take a closer look at Fanning’s and a few other elevated travel outfits below.

If there was ever a time to add a splash of color to your wardrobe, the summer is the perfect moment. Follow the lead of Katie Holmes and pick a bold pair of comfy trousers (like the now sold out High Sport pants) to wear to the airport. Balance out the blazing color with a soft pastel top, and don’t forget to lace up a coveted pair of sneakers.
