Fashion content creator and self-made designer Nancy Tyagi made a grand return to the Cannes red carpet this year, turning heads once again in an outfit she meticulously designed and stitched herself. Hailing from Baghpat, Uttar Pradesh, Tyagi marked her second appearance at the prestigious film festival, and this time, she came dressed in a dreamy creation that took more than 700 hours to complete.

Having first stepped onto the Cannes red carpet in 2024 with a pink gown that won admiration across the internet, Tyagi's latest look for the 2025 edition was nothing short of breathtaking. Her turquoise ensemble, inspired by a blooming garden, was adorned with hand-painted floral motifs and crafted with a fitted corset bodice that gave way to a flowing, feminine silhouette.

"I walked here last year, and since then my life has completely changed. My outfit is inspired by flowers because I really love them. It took 700 hours to create this. Heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been a part of this beautiful journey. This moment would be incomplete without them," she said in a heartfelt note.

Nancy also took to Instagram and posted pictures from her red carpet moment. She wrote, "Phir se Cannes… phir se red carpet… kabhi socha nahi tha ki yeh safar itna khoobsurat hoga. Dil se shukriya sabko jo saath hain iss journey mein. #nancytyagi #cannesfilmfestival"
