Bollywood Stars at the 66th Cannes Film Festival, 2013: Aishwariya Rai Bachan

Aishwariya Rai Bachchan has landed at Cannes a few days ago to a flutter of (online) excitement which has led to plenty of critiquing of  her outfits, which I won't cover extensively, but you you can look here and here for more pictures.

I will post one outfit which seems to be an outfit of some debate online, a heavily beaded and floral maxi dress by Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.  Personally I love it, I like the soft, blush colours and I like the more subdued look on her - the dress is heavy and intricate, but it works for me. I've seen Aishwariya Rai Bachchan in a lot of black, gold and deep colours recently, and while white isn't everyone's most flattering colour, I think Ash looks very elegant and classy, and it's nice that she's wearing something different and elegant. I love the cut of this dress, the full sleeves work wonderfully on the dress (I also love the buttons on the front) - it doesn't look like a typical South Asian designer at all, but more something like Versace or even, as one blogger pointed out, like Valentino.

What do you think of this?
