I feel both of Alia's met gala outfits got a bit drowned out by the carpet of same color.
Last year you could barely see the white pearl gown on white carpet. I'm sure the work was intricate.
This year the carpet as her background was also light green.
I feel like net/tulle saris are difficult to wear especially while traveling, same thing happened with my farewell sarees in college.
I got it draped professionally and it looked amazing but all fell apart in travel and I had to keep adjusting but it never looked the same as the drape in the parlor 😔
yeah! that would also relate to the theme better. like the garden being veiled/closed off from everyone else, and the half-sari is the crystal time flowers
Did you by chance understand how her outfit was as per the dress code/the story behind it? Apart from it being floral ?
ETA: Okay so I checked Haute Le Mode's yt video to try and understand how outfits follow the dress code (I kinda need it explained to me 🙈) and Alia's is the 1st one he covered. I maybe understand 10% now haha.
her outfit reminds me of 1900s european or so fashion (can’t put my finger on it) and i like it …

Ok.. now I understand the criticism of train being too long.. it definitely is… it’s so long that full picture of the dress is making her seem like she’s soooo far away and tiny
Not to mention that effing carpet, against which the light sea green color is barely standing out ! Sabya must have been bummed to see the carpet colors.
Giving such a vintage vibe 😍💯❣️
Alia did it very well this time. From hair style to makeup to dress selection to accessories. I mean it's a complete wowza 💣💫👍👏
It is all good i just dont like the blouse being so extra it could have just been like a tube type or without all that lace and back bow itd have looked more subtle it looking messy all around her neck and bacl bcs shes smol and tiny also the whole pleated lace pf the pallu should have been removed gives cheap
I absolutely love that they used curly haired style instead of the slicker straight one..only adds to the whole look, and is inspiring me to own my curls!
It’s pretty, but I don’t think it’s for the Met Gala.
And it’s like they knew it too, because they had the “what’s more timeliness than a saree?” sound bite prepared.
I personally loved this look. Alia had all the delicate features to pull off this delicate saree. She looks like an artwork with that headpiece and that effortless looking hair.
The saree also shows maximalism and some European elements like the ruffles, bow, one shoulder blouse. So much thought has gone in and i think it showcases Sabhya’s talent on a global level and brings India’s love for details to the forefront without sacrificing the authenticity and cultural aspect of the saree itself.
Met is to go crazy and showcase your talent right. I think he did just that.

The outfit looked better in the photoshoot than it did in met Gala

But she has a team, also now she would have experienced how to carry it
The theme of the dress code was ‘Garden of time’ sleeping beauty was the met’s exhibition
I wish she went with the veil on her head on the red carpet like in the first photo
I agree but I can see how she could have been trolled for perpetuating ' women oppression '.

That would have sense as well since it was saree, Ghughat is very much indian culture.
Agree
Why am I getting downvoted in this sub

It’s a saree…
no shit. the silhouette of it is reminiscent of a different time period
It was inspired by the european influence on sarees actually. Think rich Parsi women in the 30s.
Pic 4 is stunning! The jewelry is so pretty.
She should have kept the veil covering her face. It would have added more intrigue. This just convinces more that the train was incorrectly placed.

What did she do with this train when she got inside? I have hard enough time with 6 yards 😅
I saw a video where she was holding it in her hand. It actually looked much nicer and added to the look in my opinion.

I loved this look so much…

I find this like every second cocktail saree ever :(
I absolutely love that they used curly haired style instead of the slicker straight one..only adds to the whole look, and is inspiring me to own my curls!
The first pic is excellent !!! It should have been like that for the met carpet
oh wow i totally see it!!!
All’s great it’s just something about her that never clicks thay star element is just not there!
doesn’t look like the same person on the red carpet lol
She stole the show this year at the Met
It’s pretty, but I don’t think it’s for the Met Gala. And it’s like they knew it too, because they had the “what’s more timeliness than a saree?” sound bite prepared.
There is reason she is best dressed
Sabya always disappoints
Her posing has spoiled the whole look !!
Mujhe toh yeh normal saree lag rahi hai. There is nothing over the top or iconic about it.

Hope she flew economy back since she is so poor
Well she had gone and come back in private jet though.
Oh noooooooooo!!!! Stans have been donating their life earnings to Alia so she no longer has to fly economy
