Alia Bhatt set to dazzle Met Gala 2024 after 2023 debut in Prabal Gurung; leaves for New York from Mumbai
Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt is set to light up the red carpet at the prestigious Met Gala 2024. This marks Bhatt's second appearance at the highly anticipated fashion event, making her one of the select few Indian celebrities to grace the prestigious gala.
According to India Today, while details about the designer remain under wraps, anticipation is high for Bhatt to deliver another unforgettable fashion moment. News of Bhatt's attendance sent a wave of excitement through her fans and the fashion world alike. Paparazzi captured the actress at Mumbai's Kalina airport on Saturday, May 4, as she departed for New York City, the host city of the Met Gala.
The 2024 theme is "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion." The official dress code is “The Garden of Time”. The theme is inspired by a 1962 story. It's open to interpretation, but expect lots of flowers and plant-based outfits!
As per Vogue, “The exhibit will feature approximately 250 rare items drawn from the Costume Institute’s permanent collection. Spanning over 400 years of fashion history, the pieces will include designs by Schiaparelli, Dior, Givenchy, and more. Some garments that are too fragile to ever be worn again—such as a Charles Frederick Worth ball gown from 1877—will also be displayed via video animation, light projection, AI, CGI, and other forms of sensory stimulation.”
This year, Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth are the official co-hosts. They follow last year's group of famous people, which included Penélope Cruz and Roger Federer. Vogue's Anna Wintour has been running the Met Gala since 1995, making it the giant fashion party it is today!
Bhatt made her Met Gala debut in 2023, turning heads with a stunning Prabal Gurung couture creation. The renowned Indian designer crafted a couture masterpiece inspired by Karl Lagerfeld's iconic bridal look for Chanel's 1992 fall/winter collection. The ensemble perfectly captured Bhatt's unique blend of elegance and grace.

Their participation highlights the growing influence of Indian fashion and entertainment on the international scene.
The Met Gala, held annually at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is more than just a red-carpet spectacle. It's a fundraising event that benefits the Costume Institute, and each year has a specific theme that guides the fashion choices of the attendees.
