TWICE’s Mina made an unforgettable impression at the 78th Cannes International Film Festival, proving once again that true style doesn’t require words—only presence. The Japanese K-pop star exuded class and charisma with each appearance, captivating both fans and fashion critics with her subtle grace and impeccable wardrobe choices.
For her red carpet debut at The Phoenician Scheme premiere, Mina wore a breathtaking strapless black gown that combined minimalism with bold flair. The sleek dress featured a daring thigh-high slit and a dramatic high-low hemline, flowing effortlessly as she walked. Styled with a neat low bun and adorned in dazzling Boucheron jewelry—a nod to her ambassador role for the luxury brand—Mina radiated sophistication. The contrast of the jet-black ensemble against the vibrant red carpet only heightened her visual impact.
Mina continued her style streak later in the evening at the Kering Women in Motion Awards and the Cannes Presidential Dinner. This time, she embraced a more angelic look in an off-shoulder white trumpet gown that hugged her silhouette before cascading into a mermaid flare. Her soft, flowing hair and delicate jewelry completed the look, while her subtle makeup enhanced her natural beauty without overpowering it. Every element of her styling echoed quiet elegance and timeless charm.
Once photos from the event hit the internet, netizens couldn’t hold back their praise. Admirers flooded social media platforms with awe-filled reactions, describing her as “a stunning black swan” and “a fairytale princess turned queen.” Many applauded her ability to look radiant in such distinctly different ensembles, hailing her as a true fashion muse.
Beyond her role in TWICE, Mina is also part of the group’s Japanese subunit, MISAMO. Her refined appearances at Cannes solidified her status not just as a K-pop sensation, but as a rising global fashion icon.
Her participation in the Women in Motion events added another layer of meaning to her presence. The initiative, led by Kering, aims to champion women’s creative roles in cinema and advocate for gender equality in the film industry—values Mina embodied through both her elegance and influence.
Whether in bold black or angelic white, Mina let her fashion speak louder than words, leaving an indelible mark on one of the world’s most prestigious red carpets.
