Diana Penty wore Indian designers for her first two appearances at Cannes. The looks highlighted both contemporary glamour and traditional Indian craft.

In Short

• Diana Penty wore Indian designer outfits in Cannes
• Her first look was a golden, knitted saree by Manish Malhotra
• She also rocked an Ikat-inspired gown by Amit Aggarwal

Diana Penty turned to Indian designers for her stylish appearances at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival. The actor, who is at the French Riviera for the ongoing film festival, has served two looks so far. Oh, and they deserve your attention.

To attend the Bharat Pavilion event at Cannes, Penty said she “dipped in a little Indian gold.”

She wore an unconventional golden saree by Manish Malhotra. The unique ensemble featured a knitted drape, styled with an oversized cropped matching jacket and a brown belt.

Her smokey eye makeup, perfectly blow-dried brown hair, and nude lips balanced the dazzling outfit.

For her second appearance in Cannes, Diana Penty honoured India’s rich craft heritage. The Cocktail actor wore an experimental outfit by Amit Aggarwal. At first glance, the ensemble appeared to be the designer’s signature creation, featuring bold cut-outs and sculptural details crafted from pleated polymer textile. But a closer look revealed an Indian story - the textile used to create the gown was a nod to Ikat, the celebrated traditional dyeing and weaving craft.

The one-shoulder gown was further accentuated with glass beads. To complete the look, Penty added a statement neck choker. Her makeup exuded drama too – think beaming highlighter and red-hued eye shadow.
