Aishwarya Rai wears pearl-embroidered gown at Cannes 2026

Aishwarya Rai's unseen Cannes 2026 look features a custom Tony Ward couture white gown embroidered with over 7,000 pearls.

The gown required over 600 hours of craftsmanship and nearly 40 meters of silk taffeta, according to designer Tony Ward.

The gown has a strapless silhouette, asymmetrical neckline, corseted bodice, and pearl-embroidered skirt, paired with a white taffeta cape-styled jacket.

Aishwarya styled the gown with diamond jewels, embellished heels, and soft waves, with glam details like shimmery eyeshadow and winged eyeliner.

The designer shared pictures on Instagram on August 3, with the actor styled by Tarang Agarwal, Mohit Rai, and Chintan Shah.
