Elle Fanning Wears Chanel Minidress at Cannes 2025 • CelebMafia

Elle Fanning steps out in Chanel Resort 2026, pairing a soft pink minidress with sleek black accessories at Cannes Film Festival on May 21.

Elle Fanning didn’t wait for the red carpet to start serving looks in Cannes. On May 21, 2025, the Sentimental Value star made her mark strolling the Croisette in a look that whispered quiet luxury, with a wink.

For her first outing at the Cannes Film Festival, Fanning chose Look 58 from Chanel’s Resort 2026 collection, fresh off the Lake Como runway. The dress—a baby pink minidress with a structured cross-neck bodice and drop-waist skirt—channeled a touch of ’60s innocence, but the details kept it thoroughly 2025. A faint interlocking C motif wove subtly across the fabric, only visible if you knew where to look.

She offset the sweetness with sharp, intentional contrasts: glossy black patent mules, exaggerated cat-eye sunglasses from Chanel, and the unmistakable elegance of Cartier’s Baignoire watch.

It was a look made for Cannes—not the spectacle of the step-and-repeat, but the cinematic fantasy of the streets themselves. Effortless, curated, and distinctly her.
