Bollywood : Aishwarya Rai and Preity Zinta in Cannes
The decision of the Bollywood stars to wear western dress at Cannes was subjected to criticism. Bollywood actress Preity Zinta was clad in a black cocktail dress and Aishwarya Rai went for a black Armani gown and a midnight blue Roberto Cavalli dress.

According to media reports, fashion commentator Shobhaa De said, “It is disaster, disaster, disaster. When India is the international flavour, why are our girls dressing like Marys off to church? Even if it is fusion wear, they should be showcasing our brilliant crafts. Instead, they are looking like Hispanic nobodies: Penelope Cruz’s handmaidens, Salma Hayek’s dressers
Bollywood actresses should wear India with pride. If these women feel like behenjis in traditional Kanjeevarams, they can get themselves sexy saris. Especially at Cannes, people would understand. Why these dreadful dresses?â€ÂÂ
,
Shobhaa was quoted saying by a newspaper that Indian women don’t have the bodies to carry Western clothes. “We don’t know how to stand in these frocks. Look at Preity. Her legs are going all over, her body language is all wrong. We are not used to Western clothes. Our legs let us down.â€ÂÂ
According to most of the Indian designers, Indian outfits are held in great awe among the westerners and our film stars should have represented that. Designer Manish Malhotra who designed a sari for Preity holds that India should be the theme of Bollywood fashion at Cannes and the outfits should showcase genuine Indian craftsmanship.

you all are comepletly wrong…..just because they are from India doesnt mean anything at all!! OK-maybe Preity wasn’t that bad looking, but look at Aishwarya, she is the new International face of L’Oreal and basically an international status in Europe and now America. You all bashed her for wearing Indian clothes at Cannes and you’re now bashing her for wearing Armani!!!!! YOU KEEP ON BASHING HER ALL THE TIME CAUSE UR ALL JEALOUS!!!!!
