Alia Bhatt took to her Instagram to share the details of her MET Gala outfit. Talking about the theme of the day and how she embodied Karl Lagerfeld’s popular design elements in her look. Alia mentioned, “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 from this and in particular by supermodel Claudia Schiffer’s 1992 Chanel bridal look.”

Alia then continued to talk about her designer Prabal Gurung who made her outfit using 1,00,000 made-in-India pearls. Alia wrote, “I wanted to do something that felt authentic (hello, pearls!) and proudly made in India. The embroidery, made with a 100,000 pearls is a labour of love by @prabalgurung. I’m so proud to wear you for my first Met.”

Alia Bhatt also revealed details of the accessories that she had donned with her outfit. She mentioned, “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.” Finally talking about the white outfit the Raazi actress wrote, “Oh, and it’s white, for my Choup-ED🐱”
