What started as an evening for New York’s elite class has now turned into a sensational global event. The Met Gala is now the most anticipated red-carpet affair, bringing together icons from fashion, business, sports, music, and film – all united for a common cause. A cause that raises millions for the museum’s Costume Institute.

Many stars with Indian roots have also shone in this realm. Some prominent faces from the past include Alia Bhatt, Sudha Reddy, Sabyasachi, Natasha Poonawala, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, Isha Ambani, Diya Mehta Jatia, Mona Patel, Simone Ashley, Frieda Pinto, and Mindy Kaling – each one bringing their unique flair!
