Esha Gupta was seen at Cannes 2023 red carpet wearing a bespoke Nicolas Jebran dress and styled by famed stylist Victor Blanco. She looked like a vision in white in the designer outfit. Esha credits her stylist for helping her make a statement during her Cannes red carpet debut.

Esha told News18: “The answer [to my outfit] was really amazing. I did not expect that. I didn’t expect to be one of the best dressed and I had people calling me from all over the world – including my manager from LA (Los Angles) and my stylist – and telling me I was the most beautiful and that my look was so elegant. It was a risk. When we were making this Nicholas Jebran dress, we knew it was sexy, but it was also a conscious thought to make it angelic. If you see the dress, it is white and has 3D flowers and its fluidity [silhouette] dream. I have to give credit to my stylist, Victor Blanco.”

Esha initially wanted her stylist to research other clothing options

Esha also recalled that when Victor first gave her a preview of the dress via video, she wanted him to look at more outfit options. She said she wanted something “a bit dramatic” as Indians like to be “over the top”. But she loved her latest look on the red carpet. While enjoying her time on the red carpet, Esha said she was “stressed out” before walking the red carpet.

“It was surreal. I was so nervous even though I had my team and Victor, who is my person, with me. My stomach was in turmoil. I wasn’t just representing ‘Esha Gupta’ but since I was with the official delegation, I represented Indian cinema. I was stressed and hoped that everything would go well on the red carpet,” Esha said in the same interview. Esha had made her Bollywood debut in 2012 with Jannat 2 opposite. Emraan Hashmi. She acted in films like Rustom, Raaz 3D and Baadshaho.

Other Indian celebrities to walk the red carpet at the film festival this year included Sara Ali Khan, Mrunal Thakur and Manushi Chillar. Cannes veteran Aishwarya Rai was also seen in a silver dress. Actor Anushka Sharma is also set to appear on the Cannes 2023 red carpet.
