Elle Fanning returned to the Cannes Film Festival red carpet for The Mastermind premiere, still riding high from promoting her upcoming project, Sentimental Value.
As a L’Oréal ambassador, she brought her usual ethereal energy—but this time wrapped in a custom Valentino Haute Couture gown designed by Alessandro Michele.
Now, there’s no mistaking this look was made with Elle in mind. From the delicate embellishments to the soft, romantic silhouette and that dreamy colour—this gown screamed “bespoke,” just very, very softly. It’s romantic, it’s fairy-tale, it’s totally Elle.
Yes, it’s a far cry from her bolder Armani Privé moment earlier in the week. And yes, you could squint and say, “Wait… is that Elie Saab?” but let’s not get too lost in designer déjà vu. While it treads familiar ground, it still lands exactly where Elle always shines: whimsical, graceful, and entirely in her element.
This isn’t just in Elle’s wheelhouse—it is the wheelhouse.
The Cartier jewels completed her look.
