Priyanka Chopra is not new to the red carpet. The Quantico star is known for a distinct and contemporary fashion style and has been celebrated for her looks both in India and abroad.

This year at the Met Gala, the world’s biggest costume party at the New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art held on the first Monday of May every year, Bollywood stars Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone shone for their impressive style statements.

Priyanka who was at the gala with her American singer husband Nick Jonas was dressed in Dior Haute Couture. She was dressed in a grey gown with hues of pink and yellow to complement the look. She also wore a spiked silver crown with frizzled hair giving some competition to Hollywood veteran, Johnny Depp who played the Hatter in the film, Alice in Wonderland(2010). The crown however reminded more of the Red Queen, another character from Through the Looking-Glass.

The Hatter also referred now as the Mad Hatter is a fictional character from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel Through the Looking-Glass.

Deepika Padukone played safe with a pink ball gown designed by Zac Posen. She wore her hair, barbie style and accessorized with large silver earrings, headband and a bracelet.

The theme for this year’s gala was Camp: Notes on Fashion, inspired by Susan Sontag’s 1964 essay, Notes on Camp. Sontag defined ‘camp’ as “The essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration.”

Here is the complete look from their gala attendance. Nick and Priyanka’s presence at the gala is their second appearance together. The two had adorned Ralph Lauren’s creations in 2017.
