STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The name of the shop is The Source Bombay, and the lady who runs it Surbhi told Free Press Journal, 'Nancy claims she stitched it herself and all of that, but she bought it from us. She got it from our Mumbai store. We don't have any problem. She purchased it, so she's free to do what she wants with it.' She added, 'But it is our design. We didn't do a barter or a collaboration. She did not stitch it herself, which she claims she did. The cape she wore doesn't belong to me… that's something she seems to have made herself, I guess.'

Nancy Tyagi or Neha Bhasin? A social media post reveals who really brought chain corsets to India
Cannes Film Festival 2025 has been a major hit for India this time, as several social media influencers and actresses, from Sarah Sarosh to Janhvi Kapoor and Nitanshi Goel, stunned the red carpet at the French Riviera. Apart from the debuts, influencer Nancy Tyagi walked the red carpet straight for the second year in a row, but it seems her red carpet look this time didn't sit well on the internet, especially after singer Neha Bhasin alleged that the influencer misrepresented the outfit's origins. She accused Tyagi of falsely claiming her beige outfit at the Cannes Film Festival was self-stitched. How did the fashion feud brew The whole controversy started when singer Neha Bhasin recently took to her Instagram Stories and accused Nancy of falsely claiming that she had stitched her own outfit for her second look at the Cannes Film Festival. She went on to share an image of a similar outfit that she donned at one of her concerts in the past. The 42-year-old singer did not stop there; she went on to share some more stories, mentioning, 'This corset looks too familiar, hmmmm. Just wondering'. While the next story's caption read, 'Same Same'. She stated that the dress is from The Source Bombay, which is a fashion brand with an outlet located in Bandra. Lastly, sharing a post featuring the same outfit, she wrote, 'I rest my case'. But what's the reality? Well, the news broke out. Surbhi Gupta, the founder and stylist at The Source Bombay, while speaking to The Free Press Journal, stated that Nancy had bought the dress from their store, which she claims was stitched by herself. Gupta quoted the report, ' She did not stitch it herself, which she claims she did. The cape she wore doesn't belong to me... that's something she seems to have made herself, I guess and she bought the outfit for ₹25,000 before going to Cannes.' But is this the first time a celebrity is seen donning a chain corset? Let find out. Tight laces and royal graces: The curious tale of chain corsets in India Amid the ongoing feud, an Instagram page called Diet Sabya, an anonymous account on the platform, India's biggest fashion police social media handle, shared some details about the design of chain corsets and their origin in India. The platform shared some stories on its Instagram, saying that it clearly looks like it's from The Source Bombay. The next few stories included a discussion about the copied and non-copied debate of Nancy's outfit. This is when the page revealed that it is neither Nancy Tyagi nor Neha Bhasin, but the design was originally copied from 'The Blonds.' The pioneer of this chain corset is the iconic ballroom brand from the 2000s called The Blonds. According to DietSabya, the Blonds were the ones who first made it, and then everyone copied it. Finally, the last story noted, 'It was the 'Raakesh Agarwal' who started the chain corsets in India. Why did Neha Bhasin call out Nancy Tyagi? Later, Neha went on to mention, 'The intention was not to demean another woman but to state a simple fact. We have all worked hard to be where we are. We are all self made'.

In a conversation with The Free Press Journal, Surbhi Gupta, founder of The Source Bombay, confirmed that the outfit was purchased from their store. 'Nancy claims she stitched it herself, but she bought it from us. It is our design. We don't have a problem, she paid for it, so she can wear it, but it's not her creation. The cape she wore seems to be self-made, though,' Surbhi clarified. She added that the dress was sold for Rs 25,000 before Nancy left for Cannes. Nancy Tyagi had shared photos of her look on May 18, writing on Instagram that the outfit 'took me a month to make' and that she had been working on it 'till the last minute because the dress was too heavy.'

Pearl and sequin trails cascaded in length on lined strings, creating an asymmetrical, jewelled hemline. Besides the ornately decorated sweetheart neckline, the beige number also had panelled work all over. Nancy Tyagi layered her pearly sartorial statement with a voluminous cape. The brilliant rose-gold hue offered a subtle contrast to the silvery mini dress. Puffed shoulders and a long flowing train added an extra dose of drama.

Truth or lie? Nancy Tyagi called out for allegedly not designing her own Cannes 2025 outfit
Nancy Tyagi once again returned to the Cannes Film Festival and truly killed it with her two outfits. The surprising part is that, being a talented designer, she self-stitched both looks from scratch. From sourcing the right fabric to creating a modern and glamorous design, she once again turned heads on the red carpet. However, some fashion critics recently claimed that Nancy Tyagi's second outfit was sourced from a brand, contrary to her caption, which they found misleading—sparking an online controversy. Read for more details! For the second day of the Cannes red carpet, the designer made a glamorous appearance in a statement mini-dress, heavily embellished with pearls, fringes, and silver detailing. The ensemble featured a shimmery effect, making it perfect for a high-profile event. What stood out the most was the oversized cape she layered over the mini-dress. Designed with puffy sleeves and a long train cascading to the floor, the cape added dramatic flair while complementing her every move in style. Taking to her social media and sharing the images, she wrote, 'Ye colour meri mummy ka favourite hai, isliye iss baar decide kiya ki isi colour mein dress design karun. Isse banane mein poora one month laga, aur main last moment tak taiyaari mein lagi rahi, kyunki dress kaafi heavy thi. Dil se shukriya un sabhi ka jo is pyaari journey ka ek hissa rahe, aap sabke bina yeh moment vapis itna special nahi hota.' (This color is my Mummy's favorite, so this time I decided to design the outfit in this color. It took me a whole month, and I was busy with preparations till the last moment because the dress was quite heavy. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who's been a part of this beautiful journey—this moment wouldn't have been as special without you all.) However, Nancy Tyagi's caption soon sparked a major fashion controversy among audience, with some claiming that the dress might not have been self-designed after all. The fashion critics took to their official channel and claimed that the embellished mini-dress was sourced from a brand called The Source Bombay. They even stated that they contacted the brand, which confirmed that the designer had indeed sourced the outfit from them. The critics added that while the caption might have referred specifically to the cape, presenting it as if the entire outfit was self-made came off as misleading. The controversy has since divided the online audience, with both positive and negative comments pouring in, as fans continue to demand clarity on the outfit.
