After opening the 63rd Cannes Film Festival in style, Aishwarya Rai upped the glamour quotient on day 2 with this Giorgio Armani Prive black evening gown at the Palais des Festivals on Thursday.
The face of L'Oreal was spotted with her fellow brand ambassador, Eva Longoria, at the red carpet for the screening of the French Tournee (On Tour) by director Mathieu Amalric.
Unlike her Indian counterpart Deepika Padukone, who chose to dazzle the crowd with a gorgeous ivory coloured sari, Aishwarya chose this embroidery-layered strapless gown with lacquered black jet beads and multicolored crystals at the bust.
A Ferragamo black satin clutch completed the look.
Besides promoting the cosmetic brand, Aishwarya is also promoting her film Raavan directed by Mani Ratnam.
The bilingual film in Tamil and Hindi (which is also being dubbed in Telugu) also stars her husband Abhishek Bachchan and south star Vikram.
Speaking of Abhishek, the actor who is currently shooting for another project in Istanbul, will be join his wife at Cannes on May 17.
Aishwarya in black is much better than the lavender gown she wore the day before.
We just hope she takes a cue from Deepika and revamp her wardrobe a little. After all, it's a pity to see such beauty go to waste!
