Even while Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was criticised for her Cannes look this year, the Bollywood diva has nothing but love for her ensembles.
While Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will always be the undisputed queen of the Cannes Film Festival, not everyone was a fan of her looks this year. Netizens thought the appearances did not live up to her standard and do justice to her beauty. Each year, she boldly asserts her fashion sense while representing India on a global scale. However, it appears that Aishwarya made a mistake this year, as social media users and fashion experts from across the globe were not pleased with her wardrobe picks. The ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil‘ star has finally spoken about her first Cannes looks.
Aishwarya Rai Calls Her Cannes Day 1 Outfit ‘Magical’
Aishwarya Rai wore a black and gold Falguni and Shane Peacock gown for the Thursday night premiere of Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis. The dress came with a long cape velcroed with golden flowers and puffy white sleeves. The bodice was further embellished with gold foil accents. Netizens criticized the ensemble for being too voluminous, overly theatrical, and overall disappointing.
Speaking about her look with Vogue, Aishwarya revealed that the gown was intended to evoke a ‘gilded glow,’ and she found the overall effect to be just ‘magical.’ The actor said, “The look last evening at the red carpet was designed by my dearest friends Shane and Falguni Peacock. They call it gilded glow but to me it was just magical.”
