But as she took in the sights of the Italian city earlier today, Gwyneth Paltrow opted for a more casual look in an oversized white men's shirt and a pair of tiny shorts which highlighted her toned figure.
Gwyneth, 38, teamed her casual outfit with poker straight blonde locks and a pair of brown gladiator-style sandals as she explored Venice by water taxi.

Gwyneth also treated fans to a glimpse of her toned stomach, the result of months of punishing workoutswith celebrity personal trainer Tracey Anderson.
The mother-of-two wrote in her GOOP newsletter earlier this year that she had relished working with Anderson, explaining: 'I think you all know how amazing I think my trainer, partner and friend Tracy Anderson is, how she kicked my twice pregnant ass into shape, and keeps taking me to new levels.'
Gwyneth's casual outfit was worlds away from the stunning Prada dress she wore at the premiere of her new movie Contagion last night and the orange ensemble, also by Prada, she had donned for a photocall for the film the day before.

Contagion follows the trail of a deadly virus which starts when Gwyneth's character, Beth Emhoff, is infected at an airport, allowing the mystery illness to go global.
Talking about the role, Gwyneth said:'I liked all that gory stuff. For the seizure scene, I had to bite on alittle Alka-Seltzer and foam at the mouth. It was fun.'
And Gwyneth's performance clearly won her some new fans, not least co-star Matt Damon.

'Like she can just be talking about anything and then when they say, ‘Rolling,’ it’s like she snaps, she just locks in, in a way that I don’t understand, because I can’t do it.
'I’ve worked with a lot of great actors and one thing that happens for me is that a great actor is so good that they pull me right in... that’s how I feel when I do a scene with her, I’m instantly brought in because she takes me there.'
Taking in the sights: Gwyneth's Contagion co-star Matt Damon was also seen exploring Venice with wife Luciana
Like Gwyneth, Damon was also seen exploring Venice with his wife Luciana.
Meanwhile, tonight's events at the Venice Film Festival saw the premiere of new movie Wilde Salome, which features rising star Jessica Chastain and is directed by Al Pacino.
Pacino becomes both creator and protagonist, as he documents the challenges of making the film, while playing himself, King Herod and, in one scene, Oscar Wilde - with Chastain in the role of Salome.

Colour co-ordinated: Director Al Pacino looked dapper as he walked the red carpet with stunning girlfriend Lucia Sola
His obsession with Wilde - an Irish writer who was imprisoned and sentenced to two years hard labour for gross indecency with other men - underpins the film, but Pacino said he regretted not exploring the playwright's life further.
He said: 'I don't think I covered enough of Wilde's personality. He was a provocateur with a superior mind- a rare person and a great artist.'
At the premiere, Chastain looked stunning in a gorgeous Elie Saab Couture backless gown, which complemented her fiery red hair.
And director Pacino looked dapper in ablack suit while girlfriend Lucia Sola showed off her curves in a figure-hugging midnight blue gown.
Lacy lady: Bar Refaeli was also spotted out and about in Venice looking stunning in a pretty crocheted dress
