Aishwarya Rai Bachchan at Cannes 2026

For her second look of the day, Aishwarya looked stunning in a pastel pink draped ensemble that featured sparkling floral embellishments and flowing cape sleeves

Pictures and videos of the actress posing against the breathtaking backdrop of the French Riviera have gone viral on social media

For the hairstyle and makeup, she kept her signature voluminous soft curls intact, and opted for a glossy makeup and statement jewellery

Standing beside her was her teenage daughter Aaradhya Bachchan who complemented her mother beautifully in a satin red gown paired with a sparkling cape detail

For the first look at Cannes 2026, the actress walked the red carpet in a dramatic royal blue bodycon couture gown

The outfit featured structured detailing around the shoulders and shimmering embellishments throughout it. Aishwarya had styled with minimal accessories

At the core of the garment is Amit Aggarwal's signature Crystal Vein embroidery technique, developed over more than 1500 hours of meticulous handwork

Thousands of crystalline linear embellishments have been individually placed across the gown, held together through an intricate lattice-like structure that binds the crystal veins seamlessly across the body to create the effect of illuminated pathways moving across the body

For Amit Aggarwal, the collaboration with stylist Mohit Rai and Aishwarya represents a convergence of cinematic presence and couture innovation
