The faces behind Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's gorgeous Cannes looks include celebrity stylist Aastha Sharma, assisted by Reann Moradian and Malvika Tater, Shannon Tanwani. Amongst them, Reann and Aastha sternly responded to a fashion report in Hauterfly, suggesting one of Aishwarya's Cannes 2019 day outfits was worn by Sonam Kapoor during Cannes 2016. "No, boo. This isn't the same outfit. How about you wait for full length images to come out before making assumptions? I feel the research should have been done from your end," Reann wrote while sharing the article on her Instagram story. Citing the Rimzim Dadu outfit as outdated, the fashion piece also criticised the former beauty queen's team of stylists.
If we rewind just a few years, Sonam Kapoor had indeed picked a metal wire saree from Rimzim Dadu's collections, whose label is known for experimenting with textures and with metal wire outfits being top hits amongst celebs.

Sonam Kapoor, who is also in Cannes, made her first red carpet appearance this year with a tuxedo set by her go-to international designer duo Ralph and Russo.
