Highlights
- Priyanka wore a custom designed Dior ensemble
- She had dramatic make-up on
- Twitter came up with memes on her looks
Actress Priyanka Chopra went to the Met Gala dressed in perfect compliance with this year's theme - 'camp', by which the Metropolitan Museum of Art meant anything from the shade card of 'irony, humour, parody, pastiche, artifice, theatricality, and exaggeration.' Priyanka's eye-catching Dior outfit, complete with futuristic makeup, outsize hair and even a bindi, deserves a slow clap and scored full marks with the fashion police for staying true to the theme. Twitter, however, has no respect for avant-garde fashion and you know what that means - memes. Priyanka Chopra is likely to be as entertained by the memes as the Internet was by her outfit so while we wait for her personal selection of the best of Twitter, here is a round up of what's out there.
More than her outfit, what actually got everyone talking about Priyanka's look was her eccentric make-up with exaggerated eye lashes and an afro-inspired hairdo. She placed a metallic cage crown of sorts in the midst of her afrocurls. While we are proud of Priyanka's fashion evolution at Hollywood galas, Twitter pointed out uncanny similarities between Priyanka's Met Gala look and Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter in Alice In Wonderland. Priyanka Chopra walked the Met Gala pink carpet with husband Nick Jonas, who was also included in the meme fest.
Who would have thought Twitter would put these ROFL images of Priyanka Chopra and The Mad Hatter in our heads?
Priyanka and Nick Jonas' expressions were also explained like this:
And that inevitable Aadhaar Card meme had to happen:
Twitter thinks all you need to do to replicate Priyanka Chopra's Met Gala look is to just pop in a few Centre Shock lozenges:
Or use shock proof appliances:
Priyanka's hairdo also inspired some to drag in references about Sri Lankan cricketer Lasith Malinga and also even Sachin Tendulkar. So mean!
Some also thought Priyanka Chopra exemplifies what life in Mumbai locals look like:
Meanwhile, some also spotted Missandei and Peter Baelish doppelgangers on the Met Gala pink carpet:
No matter the trolling, the Met Gala will always be special to Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, who went to the fashion gala together for the first time in 2017 but they were not dating at that point. Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas are also part of this year's Met Gala Benefit Committee.
