The Cannes Film Festival has become one of the most prestigious events in the entertainment industry spotlighting some of the greatest new films from all around the world. With attendees decked out in fashion ensembles from some of the world's biggest fashion houses, the festival appreciates art on screen and on the red carpet.

One of the most noticed names who dazzled the red carpet was Win Metawin, who stars as one of the main protagonists of the acclaimed Thai BL series 2gether. The Prada Ambassador represented Nespresso Thailand on the red carpet, turning heads in his dapper black velvet tuxedo that was paired tastefully with a pair of stunning Tiffany & Co. bird brooches as he graced the 79th Cannes Film Festival premiere of 'Fatherland' as a picture of suave and elegance.
