Almost everyone agrees that actress Sonam Kapoor's usually bang-on flair for fashion was temporarily absent when she made her final red carpet appearance at Cannes this year in a giant furry Elie Saab dress - and will also likely agree that she has a sense of humour about it.
She also 'felt like a princess' in the rather hairy-looking ballgown the colour of lime.
Almost two weeks after social media shredded her dress (figuratively speaking), Sonam Instagrammed this:
The 'princess'-ey ensemble was received with instant and unanimous revulsion on Twitter when Sonam wore it to the screening of
Inside Out on May 18. It was compared to Big Bird from
Sesame Street, Cousin Itt from
The Addams Family, grass, a stack of hay and even the
Khoobsurat actress' father Anil Kapoor, who has a reputation for hirsuteness. Sonam, who has
Prem Ratan Dhan Payo with Salman Khan out later this year, represented L'Oreal for the fifth year at the Cannes Film Festival which concluded last weekend.
