Nancy's younger brother Manu helps her completely. Manu told Dainik Bhaskar his entire journey to Cannes. Manu told- 4 months ago, Nancy had received an invitation to Cannes through Brut. We were told that you have to go to France for the Cannes Film Festival. Get ready. We couldn't believe that we would get such a big chance through social media.
Wore her own designed outfit on the red carpet
Nancy has dominated Cannes due to both her beauty and gown. Bhai Manu told – When we came to know about going to Cannes, we thought that we will not showcase clothes made by others there. Nancy decided that because she had reached this show because of designing, she would wear only the gown prepared by her. After this both of us together started thinking about outfit designing.
This red carpet gown was completed in one month and was stitched by Nancy herself.
20 kg gown made from 1000 meter fabric for Cannes Festival
Nancy specially designed a baby pink rose colored frill gown for the red carpet main show. The three piece gown is made of net fabric. Bought entire 1100 meter net fabric for gown from wholesale market of Delhi. Out of this, the gown has been made from 1000 meters of cloth. Its weight is 20 kg. Gown is in three piece main gown, gloves and tail.
Manu told – Nancy herself designed this gown by working day and night for a month and stitched it with a machine at home. She had decided that she would showcase only the gown she had made. Apart from net, the gown has motifs work. Mom and dad have also given full support in this work.
Made 4 dresses for the show
Nancy prepared a total of 4 dresses for the Cannes Festival. The main dress was a pink gown which she showcased on the red carpet. Apart from this, there are 3 more dresses which have been revealed in the show. As difficult as it was for Nancy to prepare this gown, it was equally difficult to transport it from India to France.
To pack the 20 kg gown, three big container bags had to be specially prepared so that the gown could be easily kept in it. For this, separate baggage booking has to be done.
I didn't have such a big dream
While talking to the paparazzi in Cannes in Hindi, Nancy said – Her dream was not so big that where she is standing today. She made a gown for herself using one thousand meters of cloth in just one month. My journey was difficult, but every moment was precious.
I am grateful for all your love and support. It's a dream come true and I hope you love my creation as much as your support has inspired me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
