Met Gala With Myntra: Recreate 10 Celebrity Style Looks From Met Gala 2024

The annual Met Gala, hailed as the biggest fashion event of the year, once again unfolded its spectacle on the evening of May 6, 2024. This year's theme, "Garden of Time," drew inspiration from J.G. Ballard's literary work of the same name, intertwining seamlessly with the Costume Institute's exhibition, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion."

Diverging from past themes that paid homage to fashion luminaries like Karl Lagerfeld and celebrated American sartorial heritage, the 2024 Met Gala embraced a new narrative of creativity and imagination. As celebrities graced the red carpet, each ensemble became a canvas, painting a picture of elegance, innovation, and cultural resonance.

From Alia Bhatt's ethereal saree to Kim Kardashian's debatable sophistication, each look epitomised the gala's theme of "Garden of Time" in its unique way. While exact replicas may be elusive, Myntra offers affordable alternatives to help fashion enthusiasts recreate the allure and glamour of their favourite celebrity styles.

1. Alia Bhatt: The Desi Princess

Indian film industry actress Alia Bhatt took a daring departure from conventional red carpet attire, opting for a breathtaking floral saree. Crafted by the masterful hands of celebrated Indian designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Bhatt's ensemble was an exceptional display of artisanal craftsmanship and meticulous detail. The saree took 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. While exact replication may prove elusive, Myntra offers an alternative—a green mesh saree that captures the essence of Bhatt's ethereal elegance. Paired with complementary jewellery and a hairstyle reminiscent of her red carpet look, one can effortlessly channel the Desi Princess's regal allure.
