Antonio Riva Milano dresses Virginia Varinelli for the 78th Cannes Film Festival
On the occasion of the La Venue de l'Avenir screening, held on May 22 during the 78th Festival de Cannes, influencer and successful Italian entrepreneur Virginia Varinelli graced the red carpet wearing a custom creation by Antonio Riva Milano — a look that expressed theatrical finesse and architectural precision in perfect balance.
The gown was sculpted in vivid red mikado. Its halter-neck bodice twisted at the centre and flowed into a dramatic open back. A sleek, straight-cut skirt with a bold front slit added vertical elegance to the silhouette, while a pleated mikado train extended behind her, bringing volume and drama — iconic, statuesque, and unmistakably Antonio Riva Milano.


A tribute to femininity and formal savoir-faire, the look reflected the enduring codes of the Maison and marked a memorable appearance on one of cinema’s most celebrated stages.
