Influencer Nancy Tyagi Makes a Glamorous Return to the Cannes Film Festival in a Self-Designed Gown

Indian influencer and fashion designer Nancy Tyagi made a stunning second appearance at the 78th Cannes Film Festival, capturing attention once again with her impeccable style and self-crafted couture. Having debuted at the prestigious international event last year in a self-designed ensemble, Tyagi returned this year in a silver gown of her own creation that quickly went viral for its elegance and creativity.

Her presence on the red carpet has become a symbol of individuality and talent, with audiences praising her transformation and confident demeanor. The gown, designed and stitched by Tyagi herself, was the highlight of the event for many fashion enthusiasts.

A video compilation of her red carpet moments was shared on Instagram by fashion influencer Sufi Motiwala, who praised her return with the caption, “Nancy Tyagi's second majestic Cannes slay.” In a heartwarming compliment, they added, “She's having so much fun; she's waving. She's a pro now in her second year. She's just enjoying herself, and this is a beautifully done garment.” Sufi also referred to Tyagi as “the doll of the Cannes Film Festival” and revealed that the fabric used for the dress was sourced from Seelampur in North East Delhi.

Tyagi’s custom silver gown featured a plunging neckline, a corseted bodice adorned with sparkling sequins, and a structured midriff design that transitioned into an elaborate headpiece. The garment also included rose floret embellishments on the skirt and headpiece, along with a dramatic, multi-layered tulle hem. The silhouette perfectly accentuated her figure, enhancing the overall impact of the ensemble.

To complement the outfit, Nancy accessorized with eye-catching jewelry and distinctive nail art. Her look included dangling earrings set with emerald-cut stones, multiple rings, and edgy, silver OTT nails on one hand. Her hair was styled in a sleek, center-parted twisted bun, while her makeup featured silver smokey eyes, winged eyeliner, voluminous lashes, feathered brows, flushed cheeks, radiant highlighter, brown lip color, and subtle contouring—completing a glamorous appearance.

The internet was quick to react, flooding social media with admiration and praise. One user commented, “She looks sooooooo much better than last year! The makeup team did an amazing job this time.” Another fan wrote, “Ate [fire emojis].” A different comment read, “GO get it, my girl.” While yet another admirer said, “It’s OTT it’s fashion it’s pageantry it’s glitzy it’s Nancy.” A fan enthusiastically declared, “Booooooom. The star that she is.”
