Priyanka Chopra Recalls Wardrobe Malfunction at 2019 Cannes Debut

Priyanka Chopra recalled a wardrobe malfunction she experienced minutes before her 2019 Cannes debut. The actress was set to walk the red carpet in a shimmering black Roberto Cavalli dress when the delicate zipper broke.

According to Chopra, her team had to sew her into the dress during the 5-minute car ride to the red carpet.

Chopra made her Cannes debut in the dress, setting the red carpet on fire with her appearance.

The incident occurred ahead of the 79th Cannes Film Festival, scheduled from May 12 to May 23 on the French Riviera.

The immediate outlook for Priyanka Chopra includes her upcoming film Varanasi, directed by SS Rajamouli and slated for release in 2027, as well as her recent attendance at the Gold House Gala 2026 in Los Angeles, where she received the Global Vanguard Award.
