Former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who has been away from movies, never fails to slay on the runway. The actor is a global brand ambassador for L’Oréal Paris, and be it Cannes or Paris Fashion Week, Aishwarya is always there to make her presence felt at prestigious fashion events.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who has been away from the movies, continues to make headlines with her appearances at international fashion events. As the global brand ambassador of L’Oréal Paris, the actress has represented the brand at several prestigious occasions, including the Cannes Film Festival and Paris Fashion Week.

Needless to say, the world waits with bated breath, only to gasp in awe of her beauty. And that’s exactly what unfolded at the event on Monday. Aishwarya looked stunning as she donned an all-black couture ensemble and flaunted her cherry-red hair, a shade similar to the burgundy colour seen on the iPhone 18 Pro series.

She exuded a bit of gothic glamour and a whole lot of dazzling regality. Styled by Mohit Rai, the ensemble was created by Yara Shoemaker and was part of her Fall/Winter 2026–27 collection.

Her sparkling gown came with a diamond-studded velvet cape. The actor’s velvet couture look was further elevated with a jewel-encrusted tiara. Aishwarya dazzled at Paris Fashion Week in France on Monday, September 28, as she walked the ramp in a stunning black velvet gown. She completed her glamorous look with the statement tiara, which instantly grabbed attention.
