Bollywood actor Alia Bhatt walked the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival for the second time as the face of L’Oréal Paris. At the opening ceremony, the actor grabbed attention with her signature soft-glam look in an elegant peach gown. Her appearance impressed fans, and even her mother-in-law, actor Neetu Kapoor, gave the look a thumbs up.
Neetu Kapoor can’t stop gushing over Alia Bhatt
Alia shared a series of pictures from her red carpet appearance at Cannes on Instagram. She wore a peach-toned couture gown that featured a figure-hugging silhouette and a sweetheart neckline. The actor paired the outfit with a sheer chiffon cape draped around her arms, which flowed behind her as she posed for the cameras. Reposting the pictures on her Instagram Stories, Neetu wrote, “Perfection,” along with clapping emojis.
Apart from Neetu, several celebrities also praised Alia’s appearance at the festival. Filmmaker Karan Johar, actor Sobhita Dhulipala, Saba Pataudi, and Sunny Leone were among those who reacted positively to the actor’s Cannes look on social media.
Alia has been serving several fashion moments throughout her appearance at the festival. On the second day, she attended the inaugural event at the Bharat Pavilion in a custom ivory silk saree-gown. The outfit featured a structured corseted bodice with a plunging neckline and blended elements of a traditional saree with a modern silhouette.
Later, the actor attended the screening of La Vie d’Une Femme in a steel-blue gown that drew comparisons to Cinderella-inspired fashion among fans online. For her final appearance at the festival, Alia chose a floral brocade gown and completed the look with minimal jewellery and subtle makeup.
