Desi diva goes global!

When we talk about merging Hollywood glam with a touch of Indian elegance in fashion, we always come to the fashion lookbooks of the diva Priyanka Chopra. This global icon has iconically put Bollywood on the international fashion map, and we have no points of complaint. Always seen commanding attention with her stunning appearances, she recently made heads turn in New York and schooled them yet again in contemporary couture picked from Elie Saab creations.

Making us go gaga in blue!

The Elie Saab gown was dipped in shimmering cobalt blue and carried a sense of softness amidst its structured sharpness. It featured a strapless bodice with a low square neckline that neatly framed her shoulders. The corset-fitted detailing flowed seamlessly into a mermaid-style skirt, whereas the tulle detailing created a graceful saree drape at the front. But the statement show was the draped pallu moment, which turned this dreamy gown into a desi affair.

Dipped in feather touch

At the 2019 Met Gala, Priyanka showcased her prowess in a Dior feathered look. She wore a customised Dior Haute Couture gown featuring a sheer caged bodice with a high collar and a rainbow-feathered cape with an attached skirt. Adding a dramatic silver crown to her hair, she completed the theatrical ensemble with a fashionable hairstyle. This look inspired countless memes and headlines across the globe, though.

The dramatic trench coat look

Making heads turn at the 2017 Met Gala, Priyanka made an unforgettable debut in a customised Ralph Lauren trench coat gown, which looked extremely long and dramatic in its train. Fashion critics and international news outlets praised this bold yet dramatic take, which instantly made fashionable headlines.

The breathtaking Zuhair Murad appearance

At the 2016 Oscars, she wore a stunning Zuhair Murad gown, which was drenched in shades of white with a sheer lace column. This flattering floor-length gown became the seventh most-searched dress in Google’s end-of-year fashion list. The strapless sweetheart neckline piece looked absolutely stunning and indeed was one of a kind.

The dramatic fairytale, but in velvet

In 2018, Priyanka Chopra attended the Met Gala in an understated but regal ensemble. She wore a burgundy Ralph Lauren velvet gown with a beautiful jewelled hood with intricate beading. The outing perfectly suited the theme of the hour and drew immense praise for its classic overall look. It was also counted as one of the best looks from the event that year.

Drenched in fiery red

If you wish to see Priyanka Chopra in fiery red, then we all remember her 2016 Emmy Awards look, carved by Jason Wu in a red chiffon. This one-shouldered red chiffon gown came with an enormous twirl and secured a spot on many best-dressed lists under the debut section. It is also a great bridesmaid's dress pick.

Her official Cannes debut

In 2019, Priyanka made her Cannes debut in a beautiful Roberto Cavalli sequin gown, which was indeed made for the stars. The strapless sweetheart neckline gown came drenched in a striking black and rose gold hue, with a thigh-high slit. However, it was revealed that the fit was unfinished until the team arrived at the event, and it was sewn in the car, plus the zipper broke.

Wowing everyone back-to-back at the Oscars

At the 2017 Oscars, she made headlines in a Ralph & Russo gown, which looked futuristic and heavenly. The floor-length white sculptural gown had hints of silver and looked absolutely modern and edgy, which was a divine mix of sexy and sheer elegance. The square-split corset was the highlight of the hour and was absolutely loved by the international media.

Stole the show at NMACC

Priyanka Chopra wore this distinct look at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre in Mumbai. For the second day, she draped a 60-year-old vintage Banarasi brocade saree, which was made from silver threads and gold electroplating on khadi silk. Featuring a thigh-high slit with a jewel-toned draped fabric that moulded her body, she completed this saree-gown blend with a holographic bustier, which was created by Amit Aggarwal.
