The Cannes Film Festival is yet another renowned red carpet event wherein celebrities put forth their best fashion game. This year, it will take place from May 16 to May 27, and we are looking forward to seeing our Bollywood veterans as well as some new B-town debuts on the red carpet. But did you know that one Bollywood actress has attended nearly every Cannes Film Festival? No, it is not Aishwarya Rai or Sonam Kapoor. Scroll down to find out who it is!
Mallika Sherawat has attended the film festival every year from 2005 to 2019, with no exceptions! While her early looks did not pass the vibe check with the audience, the Murder actress eventually did end up getting a few outfits right. Despite the fact that Mallika never had a film to her name, she ended up attending the red carpet every year and representing India at the event.
Mallika Sherawat’s Most Iconic Cannes Looks
2005
Her first Cannes appearance turned out to be one of the most controversial. This all-white ensemble made many wonder how she wore it to such a prestigious event. Many could not put their finger on whether it was a lehenga or just a skirt with a thigh-high slit. However, the criticism made this look iconic, and it is remembered even now.
2014
Sherawat wore a blue lacy gown by designer Emilio Pucci at the 67th Cannes Film Festival.
2015
In 2015, Sherawat wore a silver and blue dress by Hobeika that was embroidered with crystals and paired it with a floral diamond neckpiece by Maison Mellerio.
In the same year, she also wore a fuchsia pink gown from Alexis Mabille, which featured a cape. She teamed it with a beautiful floral neckpiece from Boucheron.
2017
Mallika graced the red carpet in a 3D-printed gown by Georges Hobeika in 2017. This turned out to be one of her best Cannes looks throughout the years.
2018
In 2018, Mallika attended the festival and represented the Free-A-Girl NGO that worked on eliminating child prostitution and trafficking from the world. At this time, she wore a lilac gown inspired by Swan Lake.
2019
For her last appearance in 2019, Mallika stole the show as she walked the red carpet looking like a dream in the sexiest outfit by Tony Ward.
Since we haven’t seen Mallika Sherawat grace the Cannes Film Festival red carpet in a while, wouldn’t it be great if she made a comeback this year?
