Mexican fashion, artisan footwear, and contemporary design on one of the world's most important platforms

During the Cannes International Film Festival, Magnum once again transformed La Croisette into one of the festival's most exclusive and talked-about spaces: House of Magnum.

Located in the Palais Stéphanie on Boulevard de La Croisette, the experience brought together fashion, music, design, and gastronomy in a celebration that annually gathers international figures from the creative industry, celebrities, and cultural icons.

In this edition, Mexico found a space in Cannes through designer Jesús de la Garsa, who presented a special collection inspired by Magnum's visual universe as part of the international showcase organized by House of Magnum.

The collection was fully accompanied by Dante footwear and TTEN Jewelry, making both Mexican brands the first in their category to be featured on this international platform linked to the Cannes Film Festival.

House of Magnum: fashion, luxury, and culture in Cannes

Every year, House of Magnum turns the French Riviera into a meeting point for fashion and entertainment.

The experience mixes fashion shows, editorial presentations, music, and the renowned Magnum Dipping Bar, where guests and attendees can customize ice creams with different coatings and toppings inspired by the brand's identity.

The 2026 edition brought together international guests such as Heidi Klum, Adriana Lima, Halsey, and Law Roach, a stylist renowned worldwide for his work with figures like Zendaya and for his influence within the contemporary fashion industry.

This year, Magnum also presented its new Signature line, including flavors like La Pistache and La Pêche, expanding the brand's sensory narrative towards an experience more linked to luxury, texture, and detail.

Jesús de la Garsa presents a collection in Cannes with Magnum

After presenting the proposal in Mexico, Jesús de la Garsa took the collection to Cannes in a new runway show held on La Croisette beach.

The designer was the only Latin American representative in the international showcase, sharing space with creatives from France, Spain, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands. The collection took visual references from the Magnum universe and translated them into:

• structured corsets
• crystal applications
• artisan embroidery
• sculptural silhouettes
• constructions inspired by texture, volume, and movement.

The fashion show was curated by Law Roach and featured Heidi Klum as part of the runway finale. Within the proposal, Dante footwear functioned as an essential part of the visual construction of each look, integrating boots and silhouettes that dialogued with the sculptural strength of the collection.

Dante in Cannes: Mexican footwear on an international platform For Dante, this participation represents an important moment for contemporary Mexican design and for the presence of Mexican artisan footwear on international fashion platforms. The pieces used during the presentation included:

Gaia Burgundy

Zelina Wine

Zelina Black

Zela Brown Suede

Vizzio Bone

Each model was selected to complement the proportions, materials, and narrative of the collection presented in Cannes.

The silhouettes blended high boots, soft finishes, wine tones, suede, and enveloping constructions that reinforced the visual character of each outfit.

In addition, Jesús de la Garsa wore footwear from the Dante Caballero men's collection during the ceremony and after-party hosted by Magnum, sporting the Kenzo Black model as part of his styling for the night.

Mexican fashion and Mexican designer footwear on the international stage

Dante's presence in Cannes continues to broaden the conversation around Mexican design and its current place in international fashion.

Beyond presenting products, participation in House of Magnum allowed for a proposal where footwear functions as part of a complete visual narrative: design, identity, construction, and creative direction.

At Dante, we understand footwear as an extension of a collection's visual language. A piece that not only complements a silhouette but also helps to build it.

Dante: contemporary design and artisan footwear for women From Mexico, Dante continues to develop a proposal focused on:

• women's boots
• Mexican artisan footwear
• designer boots
• leather sandals
• contemporary shoes
• silhouettes based on material, form, and detail.

Participation in Cannes represents a new step for Mexican design within international settings where fashion, culture, and creative direction converge.
