When it comes to the red carpet, our Bollywood divas make sure that they carry all swoon-worthy outfits. After all, it is the red carpet where our ladies get a chance to show off their sartorial choices. Now when it comes to a big appearance like the Cannes, they just can't take it lightly. This year, we saw really grand appearances at the Cannes. From Deepika Padukone to Priyanka Chopra to Sonam Kapoor, none of the divas miss making a dramatic move at the red carpet.
Sonam Kapoor, who is known for her amazing fashion choices had a really different pick for the Cannes this year. Sonam picked a tailored tuxedo from London based designer duo, Ralph & Russo. Designers Ralph and Russo in an interview to a lifestyle magazine shared what all went into creating Sonam's Cannes red carpet look.

Tamara Ralph, Creative Director and Co-Founder at Ralph & Russo said, “When Sonam and I first started talking about this year’s Cannes Film Festival, I suggested right from the start that we go for a tuxedo look as I felt it would be very different for the red carpet, and also something Sonam has never done before—at least on the carpet,”
He further revealed, “Once this was determined, I felt something modern, clean, chic—and a bit sexy—would look amazing on her, and so the white tuxedo was born. I was also inspired by a similar piece from our spring/summer 2019 couture collection,” she adds. The most astounding detail? The piece took a total 495 hours to create. “Out of the 495 hours, 115 hours were dedicated to pattern cutting, and the remaining 380 to fittings, sewing and alterations."
Sonam Kapoor's tailored suit was prepared using silk crepe. The two metre long train added loads of drama to her overall look. This train was curated with the same intention. Ralph shared, “With the train, I wanted to keep an element of drama and strength—especially with this being the red carpet and the Cannes Film Festival specifically. It transformed the look into a different one altogether—essentially part gown, part tuxedo.”

Talk about more drama in her look and we loved how the shirt was skipped and replaced with a multi-layered emerald necklace by Chopard. Also, let us tell you that the white colour of the tuxedo was particularly selected for Sonam. Ralph said, “When we got to the stage of talking colours, we agreed on something very fresh—and what could be more perfect than a crisp white? It’s also very much in keeping with the season, and personally, I love Sonam in white.”
Sonam Kapoor's red carpet look was completed with a pair of heels by Jimmy Choo. Her hair and makeup were kept really subtle. Her hair were done in a low bun and for makeup, her eyes were done in cat eyes and nude lips.
