Fashion influencer Nancy Tyagi debuts pink ruffled gown at Cannes Film Festival, designed and stitched by herself.
Fashion influencer Nancy Tyagi made her red carpet debut in a pink ruffled gown with an elaborate train at the 77th Cannes Film Festival. The Delhi-based digital creator said the gown was designed and stitched by herself.
