When Frenchelles stepped into the 79th Cannes Film Festival this year, the community founded by Karina Alifirova and Anna Galchinskaya joined one of the world’s most iconic celebrations of cinema, fashion, and culture, and quickly found its rhythm among the crowds gathered along the Riviera.
Over the course of the week, the Frenchelles community made its way through a series of the festival’s most exclusive events. The schedule ran from the legendary Times House and luxury brand gatherings to private soirées and industry networking evenings, the kind of rooms where film, fashion, and media meet naturally.

The talents Frenchelles brought to Cannes included Niousha Noosh, Meldra Rosenberg, Sawa Pontyjska, and others, each helping to carry the community’s name through the week.

Cinema supplied some of the most memorable moments. At the premieres of Gentle Monster and Diamond by Andrea Garsia, occasions that attracted international attention across film, fashion, and entertainment, the team stepped into the full red carpet atmosphere. Flashing cameras, global creatives, and the unmistakable energy of Cannes combined into an experience that proved unforgettable.
At Hôtel Martinez, the Frenchelles Girls Party gave the week its signature.
The high point came with the signature Frenchelles Girls Party, hosted at the legendary Hôtel Martinez, one of the most iconic destinations of the festival. The gathering welcomed women from around the world for a curated Girls Day Full of Beauty, with makeup sessions, networking, and a special couture showroom presented by Caviar Couture.
Held within the glamour and cinematic spirit of Cannes, the week amounted to a true reflection of the Frenchelles universe, a community where ambitious, creative, and inspiring women come together to celebrate beauty, empowerment, meaningful connections, and unforgettable experiences.
Frenchelles was founded by Karina Alifirova and Anna Galchinskaya, and more about the community can be found at frenchelles.com.
