Cannes 2025: Jacqueline Fernandez shines in blue seafoam gown, honoured at women in cinema event
Jacqueline Fernandez continues to make her mark at the Cannes Film Festival 2025, not just with her presence but also through her fashion choices. As part of the Red Sea Film Foundation's 'Women in Cinema' initiative, Jacqueline represented Indian cinema at the event. Recently, she shared pictures on Instagram of one of her standout looks — a blue bodycon gown — which drew appreciation for its clean design and beach-inspired elegance.
Representing India at 'women in cinema'
Jacqueline was one of six women honoured at the Red Sea Film Foundation's new initiative, which celebrates the contributions of women in global cinema. The actor expressed gratitude for being included in the event. In a post, she wrote, 'I have no words to describe how humbled I am to have been an honouree for 'Women in Cinema' with @redseafilm at Cannes... Women supporting women and empowering each other in our film industry is what I truly believe in. Thank you so much for making me a part of this imperative and beautiful initiative. Merci.'
Her presence at the French Riviera became symbolic of the broader visibility Indian cinema continues to achieve on global platforms like Cannes.
Blue dress with beach elements
Jacqueline's outfit at the event was a seafoam blue bodycon gown from the Philipp Plein Resort 2025 collection. The halter-neck gown featured fringe details at the neckline, an open back, and fabric that reflected light from multiple angles. The fringe gave the look a flowing quality, while the silhouette and design drew inspiration from the sea and sky.
She captioned the look, 'Serenity in the magic air of Cannes @redseafilm 'Women in Cinema',' in another Instagram post, where she posed by the beach, letting the natural elements complement her outfit. The sea breeze, open waves, and coastal light formed the perfect backdrop for the ensemble.
Understated styling and subtle makeup

Her makeup was kept minimal, opting for a bronzed finish with warm brown tones on the eyelids and a nude-brown lip shade. Her hair was left open and styled in waves, blending with the beach environment naturally.
Celebrity stylist Namita Alexander styled Jacqueline for the event, ensuring the entire look stayed focused on elegance without overpowering accessories or makeup.

Lakme Fashion Week Anniversary special
Glamour, glitz and grandeur marked a historic moment in the Indian fashion industry as on the last Sunday of March, Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) in association with the Fashion Development Council of India (FDCI) celebrated 25 years of fashion weeks in the country. It was at the turn of the century with India having been liberalised less than a decade ago and having a rather nascent fashion industry that the idea of setting up a fashion week on the likes of the New York Fashion Week was birthed to provide a platform for Indian designers and help them with large scale commerce. 'We have come a long way since then,' says Sunil Sethi, Chairman, FDCI. 'It's not about creativity because the Indian designer was equally creative then, what has changed is the scale. It has gone up manifold,' he says, adding, that today we are a well-established industry competing on a global scale. 'The LFW today is a must-view event for many people worldwide – from the Middle East, the US and Europe. It's for global buyers to come and see what we are doing. We celebrate our evolution and journey,' says Sethi.

Interview with Tommy Hilfiger
If the arched windows framing the Arabian Sea and Gateway of India, of the iconic Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai's sea-facing suite didn't summon enough drama, a conversation with one of fashion's most recognisable names, Tommy Hilfiger, certainly did. Seated comfortably on a cream leather couch, dressed in a classic navy blazer over a striped shirt, beige trousers, and bright white sneakers, Tommy Hilfiger looked every bit the icon of American prep he's known to be. A pop of red peeking from his pocket square added just the right amount of flair. His easy going manner and calm composure belied the clarity, and self assurance that he has honed over the forty years at the helm of his namesake brand. Over the next few minutes, he spoke about the brand's milestone anniversary, his creative collaborators, the Indian connection that dates back to his very first collection, and why he believes logos will never go out of style.

Archana Puran Singh talks about how being called 'fat' in childhood impacted her deeply; 'Even when I had 26 inches waist, I kept feeling that I am fat'
Archana Puran Singh and Parmeet Sethi invited Anshula Kapoor to their newest vlog. They commended her on her fitness efforts and then took her to a Mumbai restaurant for buttery Karnataka-style dosas. Archana and Parmeet have been exploring Mumbai's top culinary spots, but in their most recent video, they went to play pickleball with Anshula and then grabbed a bite to eat. They were accompanied, as usual, by their sons, Aayushmaan and Aaryamann. The video began on the pickleball court, when Parmeet and Anshula played a match against Aayushmaan and Aaryamann. Archana sat by the court, with a portable fan for companionship. She told the crowd that Anshula's fitness journey has significantly inspired her, and that she follows her Instagram stories. As they ate their dosas after the match, Archana enquired whether she had ever been pressured to enter the film industry. Anshula stated that she did not, and neither did other members of her family. "All your siblings are actors; Khushi, Janhvi…" Parmeet said, "Arjun!" As everyone chuckled at Parmeet's remark, Archana assured him that she was on her way. Archana was curious to learn more about Anshula's fitness journey, and she opened up about the insecurities she had and still faces, despite her accomplishments. "I've always been a big girl with a large body type. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like ¡Trading con IA en Chile ayuda a usuarios a obtener ganancias potenciales! Mainhubfb Más información Undo But it wasn't until later that I realised I had hormonal difficulties and PCOS. I have a better knowledge of what my internal body looks like. But I couldn't locate anyone in India I could relate to on Instagram, especially individuals who looked like me. "I had to order my clothes especially," she explained, and Archana agreed. The performer claimed that as a child, she was called 'moti (fat)', which had an affect on her mentally. She further said, 'It impacted me so much that even when I had 26 inches waist, I kept feeling that I was fat.' Anshula further quipped, "I can't take compliments. Physical compliments are a whole different story; they bounce off me. But even if you compliment me on anything else, like something I said or the way I think, an inner voice will say, 'They're lying'. Now it's better, but it's always difficult to change your default setting. But then you have to tell yourself, 'Believe it because you're working on yourself." They did, however, have some amusing moments. Anshula had her first taste of Parmeet's PJs, and when he added that certain meals are 'benne-ficial' - a reference to the type of dosas they were eating, as well as the name of the restaurant - the entire table grimaced. "I don't think I can be on your team anymore, sir," Anshula explained. She also termed him 'overacting ki dukaan' as Parmeet stared into the camera and stated that he would order last. "None of us have ordered yet," she yelled.
