Designer shares Aishwarya Rai's hidden Cannes 2026 pearl gown look
Months after the 2026 Cannes Film Festival concluded, a previously unseen look worn by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been revealed. Designer Tony Ward posted photos of the actress wearing a bespoke white couture dress made with more than 7,000 pearls, 40 metres of silk taffeta, and requiring over 600 hours of manual labor. The outfit was completed with a white taffeta cape that included ruffled details and pleated sleeves.
