Aishwarya Rai Bachchan didn’t just attend Cannes 2025, she arrived like the queen she is, dripping in royalty with her saree, sindoor, and that signature grace. But for everyone who thought she might skip her iconic gown game this year – surprise, surprise! The OG Cannes queen pulled up with a whole slay in black, and it was worth the wait.

After blessing us with that jaw-dropping saree moment (complete with sindoor, might we add), Aish decided to flip the vibe completely on Day 2. Ditching desi for drama, she walked the red carpet in a strapless black gown that hugged her like it was tailor-made by angels. To add a dash of dazzle? A ivory cape.
Gone were the poker-straight locks we usually spot on her. This time, Aish served soft curls that bounced with every step she took and paired it with her classic red lip so bold, it could silence a room. To add to the elegance, she donned diamond earrings, cocktail rings, and that look of effortless royalty, and you’ve got yourself a fashion knockout.
Aishwarya’s look takes us back to 2010
Fashion stans on the internet had a moment of déjà vu and for good reason. The black gown brought back all the memories from her 2010 Cannes slayage. Fans were quick to scream, “The queen has resurrected her throne!” Let’s be real, Cannes doesn’t feel like Cannes until Aishwarya does her signature namaste pose on those stairs. It’s tradition now.
Even royalty isn’t immune to red carpet bloopers. During a mega photo-op with Helen Mirren and Cara Delevingne, Helen stepped on Aishwarya’s cape, causing it to slip. But Ash? She handled it like a pro. One smile, a quick fix, and a gracious nod later, she was back to serving looks like nothing happened. Helen, being the queen she is herself, apologized instantly. No drama, just legends helping legends.

Aishwarya once again reminded the world that elegance never goes out of style. She blended Indian grace with international glam like a seasoned Cannes veteran because well, she is one. With every look, she tells a story, represents a culture, and redefines the word iconic.
