A Chinese actress was expelled from the Cannes International Film Festival red carpet.
According to a report by the Taiwanese media ET Today on the 14th (local time), Chinese actress Zhao Yingzi attended the 78th Cannes International Film Festival red carpet held on the 13th but was expelled by the organizers.
On that day, Zhao Yingzi appeared on the red carpet wearing a silver sheer dress. The nude-toned dress was adorned with silver sequins, highlighting her figure.
The actress's expulsion from the red carpet was highlighted by a video captured by netizens. The video, released by Chinese netizens, showed Zhao Yingzi, who had lingered on the red carpet, being asked to leave by staff on site.
In response, many netizens speculated that Zhao Yingzi's dress may have violated the festival's regulations due to its revealing nature.
Previously, Zhao Yingzi revealed through social media that she had originally prepared a red dress but wore this dress after spilling coffee on the original one.
Meanwhile, the Cannes Film Festival office announced on the 12th, a day before the opening, that the dress code has been tightened starting this year. According to this, excessive exposure is prohibited not only on the red carpet but also in screening rooms and various official event locations. Nude dresses, voluminous dresses, and excessively long dresses are all restricted.
The Cannes Film Festival organizers explained that this measure is to "clarify existing regulations based on French etiquette" and that it aims to "maintain the dignity of the festival."
