More about Alia Bhatt's MET Gala debut

Alia Bhatt made a stylish debut at MET Gala 2023. She wore a white pearl-encrusted ball gown by Prabal Gurung. The outfit was encrusted with 100,000 pearls. After denying the designer's invitation several times, this year, the actress decided to give it a chance. She took to her Instagram handle and penned a note about her experience. She wrote, "Met Gala -- Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. I have always been fascinated by the iconic Chanel brides. 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." 

"I wanted to do something that felt authentic (hello, pearls!) and proudly made in India. The embroidery, made with 100,000 pearls is a labour of love by @prabalgurung. I'm so proud to wear you for my first Met. A girl can never have too many pearls... and the right accessories to complement the look which in our case translated to the bow of pearls on my hair. Oh, and it's white, for my Choup-ED," Alia concluded.
