Alia Bhatt stuns in 'Made in India' pristine white gown at Met Gala in New York

New York/IBNS: Bollywood actor Alia Bhatt made a stunning debut at the prestigious fashion event Met Gala in the USA, looking elegant in her  pristine white corseted couture ball gown created by Indian designer Prabal Gurung.

The actor, who just won the Filmfare award for her performance in Gangubai Kathiawadi, thus made her much anticipated appearance at the fashion event in her pearl-studded ball gown.

She posted on her social media all the details.

"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 from this and in particular by supermodel Claudia Schiffer’s 1992 Chanel bridal look," she wrote.

This year's theme is 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty' inspired by the works of the late iconic German designer who was the guiding light of Chanel, the French luxury fashion house.

"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. 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," she posted.

The Met Gala, or Met Ball, formally called the Costume Institute Gala or the Costume Institute Benefit, is an annual fundraising gala held for the benefit of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute in New York City.
