Indian beauties make fashionable debut at Cannes 2019 red carpet
Bollywood stars and TV actors make a statement at Cannes with their debut appearances.
The Cannes Film Festival this year saw a barrage of Indian celebrities hitting its coveted red carpet. While several veterans like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Deepika Padukone made appearances, we saw several Cannes debutantes as well.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas, now a global star, made her first ever Cannes appearance with her husband Nick Jonas this year. Diana Penty and Hina Khan also made their debuts. These Indian ladies walked the red carpet for two-three days, did photo-calls with the press and also attended the elite Chopard parties in the evenings.

She made her red carpet debut at Cannes in a shimmery Roberto Cavalli gown. The strapless gown was figure-hugging and had a slit up to her thigh. On the bodice, it featured multicoloured sequins which gave the dress dimension. The short train trailed behind her as she walked. The geometric eyeliner and a mauve lipstick completed her make-up. She wore leaf-life earrings by Chopard and wore her hair in loose curls.
For her second red carpet appearance, Priyanka wore coordinating white outfits with Nick. The off-shoulder Georges Hobeika dress was in bridal white and featured ruffles at the shoulders. Brown lipstick and soft smoky eyes complemented the dress. Priyanka accessorised the dress with a stunning diamond neckpiece and matching earrings by Chopard.
