Min-Li's Cannes Diary

“Hitting the ground running as I battle jetlag after arriving in Cannes, for a night out on the town with business partners and friends. In a Dior dress with Gucci gladiators, and a Chanel bag.”

“Enjoying the sublime weather in Cannes as I wander along the Croisette, where the main activities associated with the Cannes Film Festival take place.  Wearing Dior vest, Balenciaga pants, and Dior sunglasses.”

“I had heard so much about the famed restaurant La Chevre d’Or (“The Golden Goat”) so I secured a reservation a month in advance and got on a train to Eze the morning after I arrived in Cannes. The subtle cuisine of  two Michelin star chef Arnaud Faye, coupled with the astonishing views of the French Reviera made the long trek worthwhile. Wearing a Gucci T-shirt and lace skirt, Dior sneakers, and a Delvaux bag.”

"Taking a quick picture before heading to the Majestic Hotel for a dinner party. I loved the wonderful long summer nights when it stays light till 10pm! Wearing an Antonio Berardi dress and Dior booties bought that day in Cannes.”

“At the Amfar Gala, the biggest night of the Cannes Film Festival!  It was definitely the highlight of my stay in Cannes and a night to remember where celebrity sightings abounded.  Here I am, dressed in a Cushnie et Ochs dress, alongside Julian Lennon and Timothy White.”

"Leaving the gala at 4am!"

“It was a treat getting to attend the opening of Timothy White’s exhibition of celebrity portraits at the Chateau Savant. Timothy is one of the world’s best known and most sought after celebrity photographers and his images are truly breath-taking to behold. I am dressed in Gucci.”

“My wonderful evening in Antibes started off with an aperitif at a friend’s villa at Vallauris, followed by dinner at Restaurant de Bacon. It is a Michelin-starred restaurant (and one of the best known fish restaurants in France), known for its excellent bouillabaisse.  We arrived just in time to catch the stunning sunset.  I am wearing a Stella McCartney dress, Gucci bomber jacket, and Gianvito Rossi sandals.”

“Taking advantage of the wonderful light in our Cannes apartment as I take a breather before getting on my flight to Paris for my visit to Champagne!  Wearing Jacquemus.”

" Here I am, resting my aching feet from those vertiginous Gucci heels, in a mirrored hall of fame. Wearing top to toe Gucci."
