PIX: Aishwarya's GLAMOROUS avatar in London

After her annual Cannes outing, followed by a stopover in London for Beyonce's charity concert, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was back in fashion news.

Dressed in a printed lace dress, Ash attended the first day of annual Royal Ascot horse racing festival in Ascot, Southern England, as a longtime brand ambassador of Longines luxury watches.

Keeping with the racing fashion protocol, the actress jazzed up her day outfit with a custom-made fascinator in black and white.

Ash has been associated with Longines since she was signed on by the brand in 1999 as Ambassador of Elegance.
 

The red carpet veteran strikes a pretty pose for the gathered media.

The actress, who complemented her day outfit with minimalistic makeup, flashes her famous smile for the cameras.

Ash has been a regular at the race since 2009.

Unlike her plumper avatar at Cannes, the mother of one looked svelte and fresh-faced at the event.
