Sonam Kapoor outshines Blake Lively at Cannes

We aren't surprised. Sonam Kapoor has emerged to be the undisputed red carpet empress on the red carpet. From frothy Elie Saab gown to diaphanous Anamika Khanna sari pants - Sonam's each look was a study in perfection. Superimpose the couture flawlessness with impeccable make-up and hair - it's no wonder that the stylissma was lauded for her sartorial picks on the red carpet with the international press giving her a perfect 10.

Femme Fatale Blake Lively (despite her hot accessory - Ryan Reynolds) lost the steam in front of the Indian Princess - Her Chicness Miss Kapoor.

Blake looked great in a slew of Gucci gowns but isn't red carpet today more about decoding new fashion rules and breaking the existing ones.

Huffington Post gushed, "Forget Blake Lively—Sonam Kapoor is the belle of the 2014 Cannes Film Festival!The 28-year-old Bollywood film star has been heating up the red carpet in showstopping looks that would make Cate Blanchett green with envy."

Full marks to sis Rhea Kapoor who did each look complete justice. Tour de force!
