The curtain hasn’t dropped yet on Alia Bhatt’s Cannes 2025 fashion spectacle. Just when we thought she had already delivered her best looks, the actress turned heads once again—this time with a striking traditional twist that took the global stage by storm.
After captivating fans with a dreamy white gown and a bold, shimmering black outfit, Alia made a grand statement at the closing ceremony in a saree that blended desi elegance with high-end couture. Marking a historic fashion moment, she became the first to don a Gucci saree—an ensemble drenched in Swarovski crystals and pure grace.
Opting for a nude palette, Alia kept her makeup subtle yet sophisticated, allowing the intricacies of the saree to do all the talking. The standout piece? A daring blouse featuring a plunging neckline, sultry side cuts, and an almost backless design. And the long, sheer pallu? Simply sensational. It flowed like poetry on the red carpet, adding drama and finesse to an already breathtaking look.

As the 78th Cannes Film Festival, which began on May 13 and wraps up on May 24, draws to a close, Alia made sure to exit with an unforgettable fashion finale. She wasn’t alone in raising the glamour quotient—stars like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Aditi Rao Hydari, Janhvi Kapoor, Ishaan Khatter, and Karan Johar also turned heads with their style choices this year.
On the professional front, Alia has an exciting lineup ahead. She’s reuniting with her husband Ranbir Kapoor in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s much-anticipated epic, Love & War, which also features Vicky Kaushal. The trio has already sparked massive buzz. Fans can also look forward to Alia in Alpha, where she stars alongside Sharvari Wagh.
