It was a night like no other. The first Monday of May, now officially recognised as the night of the Met Gala was much more grand and magnificent than last year. The event is attended by the who's who of New York society and celebrities of Hollywood. The high-profile gala was attended by the likes of Rihanna, Katy Perry, George Clooney, Frances McDormand, Kate Moss, Chadwick Boseman, and Greta Gerwig among others. Also in attendance were Indian beauties Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone.
Priyanka looked dashing in a Ralph Lauren velvet dress with a jeweled hood. Incorporating this year's theme 'Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination', PeeCee looked like a vision as she posed and pouted for the papparazzi; the eye-catcher being the gorgeous hand made head gear. Deepika, meanwhile, kept it low key and classy with a red Prabal Gurung number. This was their second appearance at the Met Gala for both the Bollywood celebrities. They are both skipping the wedding of fellow actress Sonam, for the event.
Deepika is all set to fly to Cannes where she is to appear on the red carpet of the film festival. She will walk on May 10 and 11. The Costume Institute Gala at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, hosted by Vogue's Anna Wintour, is the biggest fundraising event of the fashion industry and is known for its out-of-the-box themes.
