Aishwarya Rai in Rami Kadi

First off, let's get real: This photo is mostly about the lipstick. She's at Cannes as a L'Oreal Ambassador, so risky makeup isn't that surprising, but I wonder if she'd look better in a slightly warmer purple?

This dress is lovely, though, in a way where it's also plausible that she just left the dress rehearsal for Dangerous Liaisons.

I will never ding a glorious caftan or caftan-adjacent gown, and I think she looks splendid in this.

I always love Elie Saab, but I really wish this were...you know, a color. It rather washes her out, and this beige fabric sort of downplays how great the detailing is. I wish it were just a bit...pinker?

Aishwarya Rai generally brings it to Cannes, but I have to admit, I feel a bit as if she's left some of it at home this time. [Photos: Getty]
