Ananya Panday brought a chic, fashion-forward energy to Italy as she attended Chanel’s prestigious Cruise 2025/26 show against the breathtaking backdrop of Lake Como. With a picturesque setting worthy of a classic romance film, the Gen-Z Bollywood-style star delivered a look that was nothing short of angelic, further proving her name as the first-ever Indian brand ambassador for the luxury fashion house.
Decoding Ananya's Italian-inspired Chanel look
Ditching the usual dramatic gowns and red carpet volume, Ananya opted for a chic ensemble that leaned into a contemporary look with a hint of vintage Parisian flair. The actress donned a striking black midi dress from Chanel's Métiers d'Art collection, which is known for its artisanal craftsmanship and intricate detailing.
The dress featured a plunging V-neckline bordered with shimmering silver sequins and dreamy long sleeves. Its tailored bodice, adorned with subtle button details, gave a nod to classic Chanel silhouettes while staying refreshingly modern. However, the true show-stealer was the three-tiered skirt, with each layer neatly edged in silver, creating dynamic movement and dimension as she walked.

To complement the dress, Ananya chose a pair of statement earrings, a sleek diamond ring, and minimalist black strappy heels. Her makeup look stayed effortlessly fresh and glowing with softly smoked eyes with winged liner, blushed cheeks, and a nude lip.
Lastly, her hair, parted down the middle and styled in soft, glossy waves, brought a touch of romantic ease which we definitely needed this Italian summer.
