Smogon's description of Mist in B/W incorrectly states that it "Does not prevent stats from being lowered by the side-effects of attacking moves, such as Seed Flare." I just tested this on my Black, twice to be sure; both times, Icy Wind hit and dealt damage but did not lower Speed when Mist was in effect.
If anyone cares, I was using a Cryogonal and battling a wild Vanillite; it should not affect the results, since their abilities don't have anything to do with stat stages or effect chances.
