Alia Bhatt's Cannes 2025 Gucci saree gets new twist; Watch Hollywood beauty rocking 'almost nude looking' outfit

Alia Bhatt made her debut at Cannes this year. All her looks were loved by her fans and even her critics. But what caught the attention of many social media users was the Gucci saree that she wore on the red carpet. Incidentally, a strong PR strategy was used around the time of Alia Bhatt’s first Cannes appearance that the saree she wore was the first-ever saree designed by Gucci.

However, when the brand itself promoted the look of Alia Bhatt on its platform, they just called it a gown and it certainly seems like a twist to a gown because just a few days later Hollywood beauty Dakota Johnson has now been spotted wearing it at the same event.

Gucci's official account calls Alia's Cannes outfit a"gown". So much for Gucci's first customized saree PR....

Dakota Johnson rocks an almost nude-looking Gucci gown

Known for her erotic performances in Fifty Shades of Grey and other movies from the franchise, Dakota Johnson too was a part of the Cannes 2025 Film Festival. She attended the Kering Women in Motion Awards at the film festival wearing the shimmering gown from Gucci much similar to what Alia Bhatt wore at the same festival a few days ago.

The gown with a semi-sheer design and halter neckline gave an almost nude-looking appearance and seemed like an original inspiration for the dress Alia Bhatt wore earlier as a saree. Fans loved the way Dakota rocked this sheer look but wondered why Gucci could not produce something original for the Bollywood actress instead of giving a twist to a gown that the Hollywood diva was expected to wear.

One of the users said that it is nothing new and many major brands use their topmost designs and give a twist based on the demands of their clients. Ardent Alia Bhatt fans opined that their favourite star deserved much better than an almost copied dress of Dakota Johnson to wear at Cannes 2025.
