The gorgeous actress of the entertainment industry, Alia Bhatt made a stunning entry at the MET Gala 2024 in a custom Sabyasachi saree to celebrate ‘The Garden of Time’ dress code. She was styled by her long-time stylist, Anaita Shroff Adajania.

The Love And War actress posted her pictures from the Met Gala on Instagram and wrote a long caption about her look and its significance.

A video shared by Garima Kumar shared how 163 artisans spent over 1905 man hours into making Alia’s Met gala saree, and Alia couldn’t spare a few hours to meet them.

Alia also wrote in her caption- “We focused on intricate craftsmanship, incorporating hand embroidery, precious stones, along with elegant beadwork and fringes, distinctive of the 1920’s fringe style. Our colour palette pays homage to nature’s beauty, echoing the earth, sky, and sea. We embraced a delicate nostalgia for hair and makeup – an elevated coiffure embellished with intricately woven braids and soft freckles – a homage to time’s gentle caress.”

“Creating this has been quite an experience… fun and stressful in equal parts. It has taken a collective effort of 163 dedicated individuals, including master craftspeople, embroiderers, artists, and dyers, investing a total of 1965-man hours to create this ethereal saree. As I wear this outfit, I feel incredibly grateful to embody this exquisite creation, a testament to boundless love and painstaking effort. A big thank you to @anaitashroffadajania, @lakshmilehr, @puneetbsaini, @amitthakur_hair, @dollyjain, and my amazing team for being the most wonderful collaborators through this ‘Garden of Time’. Team work makes the dream work,” she wrote.
