Alia Bhatt stole the show at the 2024 Met Gala with a stunning floral Sabyasachi saree. The meticulously crafted ensemble embodied the event’s theme, “The Garden of Time,” while celebrating Indian heritage.
Timeless Beauty
Alia Bhatt’s hand-embroidered saree featured a neutral base adorned with floral motifs. The intricate design, requiring a staggering 1,965 hours (approximately 80 days) to create, reflected the theme’s focus on timelessness and craftsmanship.
A team of 163 artisans, including dyers, embroiderers, and artists, meticulously brought Alia Bhatt’s vision to life. The finished product incorporated classic techniques like hand embroidery and beadwork, alongside 1920s-inspired fringes.
It was a call to the Garden of Time – an ode to art and eternity.
