Bollywood star Alia Bhatt had all eyes on her when she stepped up for the Met Gala in a stunning ivory ball gown embellished with 100,000 pearls hand beaded in India.
After her debut walk on the iconic red carpet, the actress took to her handle to share a couple of shots from her photoshoot and also treated fans to some close-up shots of her gorgeous gown.
The actress slayed it on the red carpet in the Prabal Gurung creation which was inspired by Claudia Schiffer's iconic dress and also paid tribute to the legendary German designer Karl Lagerfeld. The theme this year was "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty," and the dress code was "in honour of Karl."
The new set of photos gives us a closer look at Alia's ivory silk tulle and satin face organza exaggerated basque waist ball gown and hand-beaded pearls. The actor completed her look with a pearl bow on her hair and ring stack as well as a knuckle duster.
The 30-year-old, who is set to make her Hollywood debut with the action movie "Heart of Stone", said she has always been fascinated with the iconic Chanel brides, dressed by Lagerfeld, and her look was inspired by them. "Season after season, the genius of Karl Lagerfeld shone through in the most innovative and awe-inspiring couture. My look tonight was inspired by this and in particular by supermodel Claudia Schiffer's 1992 Chanel bridal look," Alia wrote in her post.
Fashion stylist Anaita Shroff Adajania was behind creating Alia's look for the event.
Met Gala 2023 was attended by some of the biggest international stars, including Rihanna, Naomi Campbell, Miranda Kerr, Doja Cat, Serena Williams, this year's best actress Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh, Pedro Pascal, Lilly Collins, Salma Hayek, Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Kim Kardashian and Penelope Cruz, among others.
