Huma and Diana In Indian Couture At Cannes

When model-turned-actor Diana Penty and actor Huma Qureshi arrived at Festival de Cannes 2019, all eyes were on them as eager fashion bloggers and style pundits couldn’t wait to get an eyeful. While it was Penty’s debut on the famed red carpet, Qureshi had a prior Cannes outing in 2012 with Anurag Kashyap’s Gangs of Wasseypur. Gown or sari, feathers or not, Barbie doll cuteness overload or opera queen drama goals, these were just some of the questions on ground. Well, both actors—who went as part of the beverage brand Grey Goose’s retinue of Indian stars, stylists, influencers, and media personalities—lived up to the #LiveVictoriously credo. Both donned Indian couture outfits as part of their multiple looks—Qureshi an off-shoulder, grey, ruffled Gaurav Gupta gown, and Penty a sculpted, belted, white satin Amit Aggarwal sari-gown. The Grey Goose #LiveVictoriously motto came to life in the French Riviera, the venue of the Cannes Film Festival and the Bazaar Bride cover shoot. The mood was ‘Indian elegance meets French chic. Here, the actors speak about the run-up to their big journey.
