The 70th annual Berlinale is currently underway in the German capital, with a number of high profile premieres scheduled.

That of course also means the accompanying red carpets, with film stars out in force to celebrate their latest releases.

So far, we've seen Elle Fanning walk the red carpet in custom Armani Prive, alongside her The Roads Not Taken co-star Salma Hayek, who wore a black embroidered custom Gucci gown.

Cate Blanchett also walked the red carpet for the premiere of Stateless, a film she co-produced and stars in, wearing a yellow floral strapless gown by Dries van Noten.

Scroll through our gallery above to check out pictures from the red carpet.

The Berlin Film Festival kicked off on Thursday, February 20 and will run until Sunday, March 1. This year marks the first festival under the leadership of artistic director Carlo Chatrian and executive director Mariette Rissenbeek.

A number of Arab films and documentaries will premiere, including Mughal Mowgli by Bassam Tariq, Nardjes A by Karim Ainouz and Al-Houbut (The Landing) by Akram Zaatari.
