Call it shawarma or hoodie couture?

Making her 21st appearance on the Cannes Film Festival’s red carpet, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan left everyone flummoxed with her choice of clothing.

In the past, Ash has shown up in a gold mermaid gown by Roberto Cavalli, accessorised with coral lips, or as the personification of Cinderella. Last year, Renaissance painter Botticelli’s ageless masterpiece, The Birth of Venus, had clearly inspired her look. Wonder what inspired this one?
