This exquisite combination brought a regal intensity to her otherwise minimalist silhouette.
Aishwarya’s ensemble marked a deliberate design departure from typical red carpet fashion. Her ivory Banarasi saree, crafted using the Kadwa brocade technique from Varanasi, was handwoven with real chandi (silver) zari embroidery and featured brocade motifs, giving it unmatched depth and texture.
She layered the saree with a sheer white tissue dupatta, edged in gold and silver zardozi work, which swept gracefully behind her like a train—transforming tradition into theatrical couture.
“The ensemble reintroduces the saree not as nostalgia, but as contemporary couture,” said Manish Malhotra. “It’s a bold assertion redefining Indian ceremonial dress on the global stage.”
Aishwarya’s makeup struck a perfect balance between heritage and high fashion.
Her presence on the carpet wasn’t just about elegance—it was a celebration of Indian identity and craftsmanship at a global fashion forum.
After two decades of representing India at Cannes, Aishwarya Rai continues to evolve while staying rooted. Her 2025 look was not just a fashion statement—it was a cultural moment.
