Overview
- On Saturday May 23, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan walked the Cannes closing ceremony in a custom all‑white pantsuit by Cheney Chan that photographers widely shared.
- The suit featured a feathered boa/cape, bejewelled lapels, lace detailing and tailored trousers, and the look was styled by Mohit Rai.
- Earlier in the festival she opened in a sculptural blue Amit Aggarwal mermaid gown and later attended L’Oréal’s Lights on Women’s Worth event in a soft pink gown with her daughter Aaradhya.
- Pre‑festival talk about her omission from some L’Oréal promotional visuals prompted public speculation, which the brand later answered by calling her a “living legend,” but coverage shifted to her red‑carpet appearances.
- Additional previously unseen couture images — including an ivory‑rose floral look and interview outfits by Fjolla Nila — went viral after the festival and reinforced her long Cannes legacy, reported as roughly her 24th appearance.
