The moment Deepika Padukone shared her look for her debut Oscar appearance on Instagram, she sent the Internet into a meltdown. Such is the popularity of the actress. Add that to her elegance, charm, beautiful smile, and her special skill of carefully articulating her thoughts – the combination was bound to take over the 95th Academy Awards. Well, that's exactly what happened, when Deepika Padukone walked the red carpet of one of the most prestigious film awards in the world on Sunday night (Monday morning in India). She picked a custom-made classic black Louis Vuitton ballgown. The actress decided to pair her outfit with a stunning Cartier neckpiece. Needless to say, her OOTD exuding Breakfast At Tiffany's vibes left her friends from Bollywood mesmerised. Alia Bhatt was awestruck by Deepika Padukone. Sharing a photo of the Piku actress on her Instagram Stories, Alia wrote, “This beauty making India proud and how….”
Deepika Padukone's stunning ensemble also became the talk of the town in the West. She made it to the best-dressed lists of many media and entertainment portals. And why not, the black gown is surreal, just like the actress. Deepika's long black dress in velvet came with an off-shoulder design and a mermaid silhouette. She rounded off her look with black velvet gloves. For her accessories, Deepika Padukone chose a statement Cartier necklace which came with a pear-shaped yellow diamond in the centre. The actress completed her look with a matching diamond bracelet and ring over the gloves. Thanks to Deepika Padukone's Louis Vuitton number, she was listed among Vanity Fair and Vogue's picks for best-dressed celebrities at the 95th Academy Awards.
Deepika Padukone was the one who welcomed singers Rahul Sipligunj, Kalabhairava, and a group of dancers to perform Naatu Naatu from RRR on the Oscars 2023 stage. The track has made India proud by winning the Best Original Song award. Guneet Monga and Kartiki Gonsalves' The Elephant Whisperers also won big at this year's Academy Awards in the Best Documentary Short Subject category.
