Karishma Gangwal Dons An Extravagant Custom Ensemble by Abhinav Mishra For Her Cannes Red Carpet Debut
Karishma Gangwal (also known as RJ Karishma) makes her Cannes Film Festival 2024 red carpet debut, donning a breathtaking ensemble designed by the renowned Indian couturier Abhinav Mishra. For her first-ever global appearance for the premiere of Kinds of Kindness, Karishma collaborated with Abhinav to create an outfit that perfectly complemented the grandeur and prestige of the occasion.
Choosing an intricate ensemble to debut at the prestigious platform, Karishma’s outfit styled by Ayesha Nigam, was adorned with intricate ‘sheesha’ (mirror-work) and delicate sequins, showcasing a harmonious blend of traditional craftsmanship with contemporary flair. The meticulous detailing and embellishments on the ensemble which took almost 60 days to make, highlighted the rich heritage of Indian artistry, making a striking statement on the international platform.
Speaking on this significant event, Abhinav Mishra says, “Karishma is someone I’ve admired for a while, so creating this piece for her was an exciting process since she truly embodies the fearless woman of today, self-made and opinionated. She resonates with our brand and our ethos as well. The creation of this ensemble was all about celebrating our rich heritage of Indian craftsmanship while making a statement on an international platform and bringing forward our signature craft of mirror work. This outfit is a twist on my signature style which felt appropriate for the prestigious Cannes red carpet.”
