Donned in royalty, let's take a look at some of the Bollywood divas wearing saree on the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival.
Deepika Padukone:
Starting with Deepika Padukone, the actress wore an ivory and gold saree by Rohit Bal in 2010. Accessorizing the look with complimentary jewelry on the go, she came a long way as a jury member by reflecting her personality via her outfits. The actress then opted for a Sabyasachi saree with black and gold stripes from the Bengal Tiger couture honoring the traditional Indian crafts.
She also wore a stunning Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla culture at the closing ceremony with a stunning showpiece collar on the saree which has around 1200 pearls and 200 crystals to go.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan:
Walking on the red carpet since 2002, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan wore a golden Neeta Lulla saree, looking like a ray of sunlight. The saree had gold embellishments as she made her debut with Shah Rukh Khan in her film 'Devdas.'
In 2019, she walked the red carpet in a Sabyasachi couture with an ornate gold border saree with her husband Abhishek Bachchan where she complemented the look with a sleeveless blouse.
Sonam Kapoor Ahuja:
Sonam Kapoor is known as the powerhouse of fashion in Bollywood where she donned in a stylish metallic blue saree with a black blouse at the Cannes Film Festival and has since then skilled at conveying a message via her sartorial choices. Her red carpet saree look was designed by Rimzim Dadu and was an ideal inspiration for many. She also appeared in an ivory look dhoti-saree with heavy beaded necklace by Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.
