Natasha Poonawalla
is back on the international fashion carpet with another exaggerated look. Acting as the vanguard of maximalism, this fashion connoisseur knows how to fashionably carry high-end outfits with effortless elegance and grace.
Unafraid of public opinion, she always gets it right with her fashion notes, making the wait worth it.
Walking arm in arm with Bollywood director Karan Johar on the Cannes venue premises, for a moment, she outshone everyone on the floor and proved that she was only there to slay. Putting tonnes of creativity, thought, and expertise into her fits, she showed up in an alluring Christian Dior vintage gown.

Ditching the usual ball gowns with long trains and ruffles, she picked up a 2002 archival Dior piece, which left us absolutely mesmerised. Keeping up with the fashion rules and themes of
Cannes 2025
, the full-length gown featured stunning tailored detailing with a halterneck sweetheart neckline charm.
Proudly showing off the 2000s off-shoulder drama, the puffy sleeves swiftly cascaded to her arms and matched the ruched aura on her midriff. The geometric pattern right beneath her bosom came in with intricate embellishments with cut-dana beading in botanical motifs with a pleated, flowy skirt that came in with a scalloped hemline.

Layering up the look with a Dior golden fur jacket with geometric patterns and floral shine, she fashionably slung the jacket over her shoulders and created a head-turning moment.
