The Indian brigade took over the Cannes red carpet a day after Vidya Balan assumed duties with fellow jury members at the inauguration in a deep red Sabyasachi lehenga.

Actress and L'Oreal ambassador Sonam Kapoor, dressed in a haute couture sari by Anamika Khanna, looked ethereal on the red carpet as she arrived to attend the opening ceremony that was kicked off by the premeire of Baz Lurhmann's The Great Gatsby.

However, it was her massive pearl nose ring that hogged all the attention.

You can trust Sonam to push the envelope when it comes to experimenting with fashion.

Light make-up and a tiny floral ring added just the right touch to the whole look.

Taking the cause of desi garments forward at the film festival was Sabyasachi loyalist and festival jury member Vidya Balan, who looked demure in a monochrome lehenga from the famed designer.

The premeire look was similar to her appearance at the jury photocall earlier in the day but Vidya looked gorgeous nonetheless.

We wonder what made the actress tone it down so much from her previous bold outings.
