What Would Our Desi Influencers Wear to Met Gala 2024?

First Monday in May. The MET GALA is held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York every year on the first Monday in May. And we can’t be more excited!

The most awaited fashion event of the year that brings together a handful of globally famous personalities who are either invited by the hosts or, are willing to pay a hefty sum for a seat at this prestigious annual benefit.

It has always been the biggest night in Fashion & the hype reaches new heights every year thanks to the live coverage, takes on attendees’ looks by fashion experts & the posts by meme makers. Basically, a night that breaks the internet.

While the simplest interpretation we can draw is all things floral, a burst of colours, hopefully, dramatic yet trendsetting makeup & all of it to be timeless.

If only we could get all our Desi influencers to walk that carpet too! But…Here are some of the ReelStars looks, which we think could be perfect (as per our interpretation) for the MET this year.

Now where do we begin, this look on Diipa is absolutely perfect. The fit is amazing, the detailing is insane. Diipa (The Muse) & Rahul Mishra (The Couturist) are a match made in heaven or should we say match made in the Garden of Time.

A mini dress is something not everyone will opt for at the biggest fashion event of the year but it is all the more reason to show everyone how it is done & who is better than the one & only Diipa Khosla.

Now some may argue that this is too subtle for the MET. We (Strongly) disagree. Classic is not everyone’s game. She is giving classic, old money, effortless & chic. It’s the little things in this ensemble, the makeup, the styling with the accessories it is all there & it makes a statement. 

The dress gives a vintage vibe with the flower detailing as a bow & then the heart on the shoe & match it with the pearl bag. Didn’t we say, it is all there? 

If this looks too comfortable for the MET, it’s ok, she will be the one dancing the night away while others are barely able to sit on their chair in their outfits.

It is a tricky thing to style men for the MET. Most of them choose formal Suits & let the women shine. Others who try either look uncomfortable or the looks turn out to be more theatrical than the performances inside the gala.

If you ask us, it is not tricky actually. It is just not for everyone. But that’s the thing about style. It is individualistic. Either you have it or you don’t (or you just lack the eye for it) 

For men to do fashion & make it look masculine, one has to be comfortable with themselves. We love Siddharth Batra in this one.

This look is formal, yet dramatic. The pairing of the floral sari with the Bandhgala is unexpected and interesting. We love how this look could represent Indian silhouettes on a global platform. (Natasha Poonawala was a fashion goddess in a Sabyasachi Sari at the MET 2 years ago)

Someone has to do it & if this look can be taken as an inspo, you are home.

As soon as the pictures of Alana & Ivor’s wedding festivities made it online. Everyone gasped (We are not assuming, we are sure, we all did) It was the definition of AESTHETIC.

This outfit on Alana is what dreams are made of. The hair & flowers & the subdued elegance it carries. We can go on and on. This look is the GARDEN of TIME (again, as per our interpretation).

Someone just put her on the MET carpet already.

The countdown has begun, and we cannot wait to see what the MET Monday will look like this year.

We along with Fashion enthusiasts across the globe will be hooked, scrolling & refreshing our feed. We cannot wait to see outfits inspired by the theme (& some memes (many) inspired by the outfits).
