Her Cannes 2023 appearance featured a floor-length, green, feathered gown. The dress was embellished with heavy green sequin work and was covered in feathers from top to bottom. She completed the look with matching structured headgear and flared sleeves, which led to netizens lashing back at the actress' distinctly birdlike theme.

A lizard neckpiece! Rautela went overboard with her Cannes appearance, opting for a pink, Cinderella-inspired gown. While the attire was up to the mark, what ultimately became the talk of the town was her lizard-shaped neckpiece.
