Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan walked the ramp for Paris Fashion Week this week, representing the cosmetic giant L'Oreal, making a powerful androgynous statement in an Indian sherwani, reimagined by ace designer Manish Malhotra.
The former Miss World created buzz when she was photographed backstage with Simone Ashley, the Indian-origin star of 'Bridgerton'. Ashley later shared a viral behind-the-scenes selfie on Instagram showing the two celebrities posing elegantly in their black outfits while preparing in their vanity space.
Witnessing the duo together, a fan wrote on X, "Simone Ashley and Aishwarya Rai bestie era." Another fan wrote, "omg look at them!! soft smiles, laced hands, heart-stopping energy wrapped in couture."
Aishwarya, a regular at major international events, arrived in Paris with her daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan. They were both captured by paparazzi looking effortlessly stylish upon entering their hotel.
The 51-year-old actress chose to wear a sleek suit with wide-legged pants, a white shirt, and a blazer. She finished the ensemble with traditional black stilettos, which flawlessly combined sophistication and contemporary style. The blazer was especially striking, adorned with striking golden chains hanging from the sides.
