Aishwarya Rai Bachchan can now be called a Cannes Film Festival veteran after she made her second appearance at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, where she once again opted for a gown by the duo dress designers Falguni and Shane Peacock.
Aishwarya can be seen wearing a dazzling blue and silver gown, and she looked like a peacock princess as she attended the premiere of celebrated filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos’ latest film, ‘Kinds of Kindness‘, which features two-time Oscar winner Emma Stone.
Dresses of Aishwarya At the Cannes Film Festival
On the first day of the Cannes Film Festival 2024, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan won the hearts of many viewers when she chose a black and white with golden puffy-sleeves gown, which she chose from the duo Falguni and Shane Peacock. Many viewers thought there was something attractive about the gown, as it featured a long trail of golden floral embellishments with a stylist and beautiful gold patchwork. She finished her look with massive gold earrings and a mid-parted hairstyle.
On the second day, she looked like a peacock princess, as the viewers thought she looked stunning in the silver and aqua-colored fringe gown. The outfit also provided by the same duo included a long trail and bold shoulders, which were filled with shining and sparkling fringes. To match the look with her face, she opted for kohl-rimmed eyes with smoky makeup and bare lips with no lipstick. The Indian diva proudly looked at the paparazzi on the red carpet with her hair slightly curled.
The Criticisms Regarding Her Dresses
Despite some people liked and appreciated her dress, there some people who didn’t appreaciate and brutally trolled her and the designer duo Falguni and Shane Peacock. A Redit user recently compared her Cannes 2024 look with the birthday cake decors and themes while other users called her first dress as a cake decorated with floral icing color and the second dress as tinsel garlands which are used in Christmas trees. A user by the name of Gloomy-Taro-7340 on Reddit stated that ‘I can’t believe that Falguni and Shane Peacock designed these dresses. What were they smoking?’.
Many netizens and users also said that the dresses and gowns were hideous and aweful and she should not have worn them.
