Transcript
00:00I feel lucky that I get to wear it, and whatever story you want to make up in your mind, that's the right one.
00:09Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the boldest, most show-stopping looks at the 78th Festival de Cannes in France.
00:18Oh, hello! Come get ready with me. We're going to the premiere of my movie Eleanor the Great in Cannes.
00:24Number 15, Bella Hadid.
00:27With the Cannes Film Festival's new 2025 dress code, people wondered what daring fashionista Bella Hadid would wear on the red carpet.
00:34I was still nervous about cameras and nervous about having a lot of makeup on and nervous about this slit.
00:40It was like, thank God, I think that maybe there was one little slit that happened.
00:44The model went viral after attending the opening ceremony wearing a black, custom Saint Laurent dress with an asymmetrical open back.
00:51Although she kept it simple and elegant, Hadid still delivered a bold look with a side slit starting at the top of her thigh.
00:58I also love to show a little skin. I don't think there's anything wrong with skin.
01:03The Chopard ambassador added some glitz to her glam, with 118.68-carat emerald earrings and two diamond rings from the Haute Joairie collection.
01:13A pair of black Saint Laurent Georgia sandals with rhinestone straps pulled the sleek ensemble together.
01:19Hadid also debuted long, honey blonde tresses styled by Jacob Schwartz.
01:23Number 14, Viola Davis.
01:26EGOT winner and inspiring philanthropist Viola Davis may be a newbie on the Cannes Red carpet,
01:31but the legendary actress is a pro when it comes to showcasing incredible fashion.
01:36I don't apologize for my beauty anymore. At all. I am absolutely proud of how God made me.
01:45She attended the premiere of The Mastermind in an eye-catching custom Gucci yellow-green silk chiffon gown,
01:51with ruched detailing and a lace bustier.
01:54The L'Oreal ambassador elevated the look by rocking her gorgeous natural curls, courtesy of hairstylist Jameika Wilson.
02:01A beautiful blue-gutty emerald choker and matching ring added some sparkle,
02:05but all the radiance came from Davis' infectious positive energy and dazzling smile.
02:10Self-love is the thing that helps you create boundaries, protect your peace,
02:19know who to work with and who are your best collaborators.
02:22Number 13, Scarlett Johansson.
02:25This isn't Scarlett Johansson's first Cannes Red carpet,
02:28but it is the first time she's attended as a director.
02:31For her big night, the Eleanor the Great director served simple sophistication
02:35in a classic black dress by Prada with matching pumps.
02:38Collaborating with stylist Kate Young,
02:40Johansson upped the glam for the Ves Privé premiere,
02:43wearing a Prada strapless chiffon dress with a ruched bodice.
02:47Although the hue of the flowing fabric looks like lavender from some angles,
02:51the official color is a dusty blue.
02:53Tonight I am wearing a custom Prada gown,
02:57which is like a beautiful pale blue.
03:01And yeah, it's really pretty, makes me feel like a princess.
03:05Using Johansson's vegan skincare line, The Outset,
03:08makeup artist Hung Vango gave her a clean look with a bold lip.
03:12Finishing touches were De Beers' Essence of Nature collection,
03:15including a pair of teardrop earrings with over 13 carats of diamonds.
03:19Okay everyone, we're hitting the red carpet, so exciting.
03:24I'll be glowing up there.
03:26Number 12, Elaine Zhang, a.k.a. Zhang Shushi.
03:30Elaine Zhang had a princess moment at the Cannes Film Festival's Dossier 137 premiere,
03:35and we cannot get enough of it.
03:37The Chinese actor gracefully stepped out of a fairy tale and onto the red carpet
03:41in a white Elisab strapless gown from the Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2023 collection.
03:45Featuring intricate floral and sequin embroidery on the bodice.
03:50And as a L'Oreal ambassador, Zhang repped the brand with subtle eye makeup and a bold lip,
03:55including some SPF for protection from the sunny French Riviera.
03:59She topped it off with a classic Hollywood hairstyle and beautiful jewelry.
04:03Pure elegance.
04:05Number 11, Julia Garner.
04:07The Fantastic Four First Steps actor Julia Garner attended the opening ceremony
04:11and the Leave One Day premiere, wearing an eye-catching black silk chiffon Gucci gown
04:16with draped detailing and a modest train.
04:18The champagne-colored sequin underdress created an all-over shimmering effect
04:23that really popped under the lights.
04:25Garner brought even more dazzle with romantic jewels from the Pasquale Bruni high jewelry collection.
04:30White gold and diamond drop earrings with a morganite gem,
04:33and a white and rose gold ring.
04:36Makeup artist Zoe Taylor gave the star a sultry, smoky eye paired with a nude lip,
04:40and Bobbi Elliott styled her signature blonde pixie cut.
04:43Garner completed the edgy, dark glam look with a pair of black leather platforms.
04:48Number 10, Halle Berry.
04:50As one of this year's jury members, Halle Berry had a lot to do with the Cannes Film Festival,
04:55and that means a multi-day slay.
04:57I mean, this is a huge, huge honor.
05:00It's up there in one of the highlights, I think, of my career and as an artist
05:05to be asked to serve on this jury.
05:07The Oscar winner adhered to the nude dress code at the opening ceremony,
05:12swapping a crimson red gar of Gupta's stunner for a bold striped gown from Jacques Mousse Spring 2025.
05:18However, the ensemble made an appearance at the Chopard Universe dinner a few days later,
05:23and let's not forget the L'Oreal Paris Dinner for Women in Cinema,
05:27where she served effortless elegance in a blush pink gown from Ily Saab's Spring 2025 Haute Couture collection.
05:33From the custom Gucci gown at the Caring Women in Motion Arts,
05:36to the timeless Jacques Mousse number and serpent necklace at the Trophée Chopard Gala,
05:41Ms. Berry kept us fed.
05:43Cannes never disappoints.
05:45Everyone knows it's one of the best festivals in the world.
05:48Number 9, Margaret Qualley.
05:50Chanel ambassador Margaret Qualley's star has been steadily on the rise in film and fashion.
05:55And what better place to celebrate both than another Cannes Film Festival?
05:59At the film's premiere, the Honey Don't actress wowed in a light blush custom Chanel silk chiffon gown,
06:05adorned with a delicate camellia flower and black bow under the off-shoulder neckline.
06:10The creation was inspired by an archival look worn by supermodel Claudia Schiffer
06:14from the brand's Haute Couture Spring-Summer 1990 collection.
06:17A high slit in the middle showed off two-tone ballet flats from Chanel,
06:21proving you don't have to sacrifice style over comfort.
06:24Qualley's romantic updo and chic earrings tied it all together.
06:27Number 8, Araya A. Hargate.
06:31Red carpet regular and L'Oreal Paris ambassador Araya A. Hargate, aka John Poo,
06:36came to Cannes prepared to turn heads in more looks than one.
06:40My number one rule for getting dressed is I would be dressed appropriate for the occasion,
06:46respect the people who you're going to see, but always be yourself.
06:50For the screening of Nouvelle Vague, the Thai model and actress wore an Ily Saab Haute Couture off-the-shoulder gown,
06:57featuring an array of exquisite embroidery.
06:59I love the colors. It's very nice. And the embroideries is like crazy. The way it opens. I love it. I love how they mix the different kinds of embroideries together.
07:11At the Mission Impossible, the final Reckoning premiere,
07:14Hargate donned a glittering blush-toned dress from Armani Privé Spring 2025.
07:19On the Eddington red carpet, the fashionista wore an edgy custom Siri Wanawari cream gown with a leather and grommet corset top
07:27that flowed into a lovely tulle skirt.
07:30Hargate's three standout looks were each elevated with dazzling jewels, light makeup, and sleek updos.
07:36I try to do all this dress work before I fly to town.
07:41Number two, I would say stay hydrated.
07:45Number seven, Dakota Johnson.
07:48Like several fashionistas on this list, Dakota Johnson had more than one stellar look at Cannes.
07:53I think tonight in Cannes might, it might very well be another, another moment.
07:59I'm so in love with this dress.
08:01She was a glittering stunner at the Caring Women in Motion Awards in a sheer silver custom Gucci column dress with a halter neck.
08:09With the gown taking center stage, Johnson opted for a sleek ponytail and her trademark bang, styled by Mark Townsend.
08:16For jewelry, she showed off Boucheron's eye-catching Serpent Bohème Solidarité diamond hoop earrings.
08:21The actor-producer also made an impression on the red carpet at highest to lowest premiere in another Gucci creation.
08:27A light pink sequin gown with a layered fringe skirt.
08:31Now that's how a star makes a memorable Cannes debut.
08:34Okay.
08:37Let's go.
08:40Number six, Naomi Campbell.
08:43At the Fuori premiere, iconic supermodel Naomi Campbell dominated the Croisette in a black tulle ballgown from the Dolce & Gabbana Altamoda's Le Sicilien collection.
08:52Of course, the standout element was the gold corset with black crystals, a true work of Baroque art.
08:59Campbell completed the maximalist look with stunning jewels from Diamani Mimosa, including earrings featuring Mediterranean coral, pink sapphires, pink gold, rubies, and diamonds.
09:10We're used to seeing Campbell with her signature sleek straight hair, but here she changed it up with a fanned out fro, adding more drama to this opulent look.
09:19Number five, Elle Fanning.
09:20We love an Elle Fanning princess moment on any red carpet, and lucky for us, she served another one at this year's Cannes Film Festival when she joined her sentimental-value castmates at the premiere.
09:32Styled by Samantha McMillan, the star donned a custom Armani Privé strapless gown in pale blue with a plunging sweetheart neckline featuring light pink floral embellishments from the bodice down to the small train.
09:43As always, Ms. Fanning was a vision of ethereal elegance, and the figure-hugging silhouette added a sultry edge.
09:51Makeup artist Erin Ayani and Monroe brought out her youthful glow with a fresh dewy look, complimented by hairstylist Jenda Alcorn's relaxed down-do.
09:59Minimal Cartier rings topped it off, letting the dress take the spotlight.
10:03This wasn't her only look at the festival, though.
10:06Fanning stunned with a few more before it closed.
10:08Number four, Eva Longoria.
10:112025 marks Eva Longoria's 20th time at Cannes, and the talented multi-hyphenate, along with stylist Maeve Riley, curated a series of gorgeous gowns to celebrate.
10:22At the Phoenicians game premiere, Longoria donned a shimmering blush-tone dress from Tomorrow Ralph's Spring 2025 couture collection, perfectly complemented by a similarly-hued Chopard au joaillerie pink diamond necklace.
10:34She hit the Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning red carpet in a jaw-dropping Illy Saab Fall 2024 haute couture teal sequin gown, and wore another Illy Saab stunner to the Global Gift Gala.
10:45But our favorite might be the colorful couture masterpiece from Zuhair Murad's Spring 2025 to the L'Oreal Paris Women in Cinema dinner.
10:54Longoria was truly a walking work of art.
10:57Number three, Natalie Portman.
10:59We can always count on the radiant Natalie Portman to deliver incredibly chic looks on and off the red carpet.
11:06Attending this year's Cannes Film Festival, the Oscar-winning actress-producer went fun and flirty at the photo call for her film Arco, in a black Dior-structured mini-dress with beaded floral embroidery.
11:17For the Eddington premiere, Portman stunned the croisette in a beautiful recreation of the Christian Dior Fall 1951 haute couture Mexique gown.
11:26Ici, on se trouve devant la robe Mexique de la collection haute couture automne-hiver 1951, qui a été reproduit pour Nathalie Portman pour la montée des marches lors du Festival de Cannes.
11:35Featuring a black bow, the shimmering bodice flowed into a black tulle skirt with handcrafted silver beading throughout.
11:42Her chic ballerina bun and striking Tiffany & Co jewels topped off the show-stopping, timeless movie star look.
11:48Number 2. Praveenar Singh
11:51Praveenar Veena Singh is known for effortlessly rocking gorgeous looks on any red carpet, and the just-crowned Miss Universe Saraburi 2025 seriously slayed her Cannes Film Festival debut.
12:02The Thai Indian model and influencer stunned at the Dossier Saint-Transet premiere in a luminous, liquid-metal silk Michael Cinco couture ballgown that reportedly took 1,000 hours to craft.
12:14While the all-over metallic effect had its own shine, Singh wore aria jewels, including custom-cut diamond earrings, a set of rings, and a bangle, all of which complement the diamond knot statement necklace.
12:26Cinco said he was inspired by celestial goddesses when creating Singh's look.
12:29And it's safe to say we won't forget this iconic fashion moment for a while.
12:35Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions.
12:39Asia Naomi King
12:40The Grosse Pointe Garden Society star was a vision in a pink Miu Miu Miu Mousseline Pisset creation.

14:02Number 1
14:04Alia Bhatt
14:05Actress, activist, and entrepreneur Alia Bhatt finally had her highly anticipated Cannes Film Festival debut.
14:12And it's safe to say she made a massive impression.
14:14I truly thrive in this sort of chaos.
14:18Honoring her Indian heritage, she dominated the closing ceremony red carpet
14:22in a sari-style custom Gucci creation dripping in Swarovski crystals, featuring the iconic Gigi monogram.
14:29I mean, I think it looks so beautiful on a sari.
14:32They created this very sexy, very minimal silhouette, and then added this really dramatic drape,
14:37which I thought was really smart, a really modern way to interpret it.
14:41The all-over shine was elevated by a collection of Malabar gold and diamonds jewels,
14:45co-created by Bhatt's stylist, Rhea Kapoor.
14:48The Gucci global brand ambassador wore her hair in gorgeous old Hollywood waves, styled by Amit Thakkar.
14:55While some have pointed out that this three-piece ensemble is more lehenga and less sari,
14:59the end result is still a history-making sight to behold.
15:03It's Alia's debut at Cannes. She's the first-ever Indian Gucci brand ambassador.
15:08And I think to just celebrate those two worlds coming together,
15:10what could be a better moment than the closing ceremony at Cannes?
