Kiara Advani is all smiles as she makes a breathtaking debut at the 2025 Met Gala. In a historic moment, she became the first Indian actress to grace the Met Gala carpet with her baby bump. Draped in a custom couture creation by renowned Indian designer Gaurav Gupta, Kiara’s look celebrated both her cultural roots and her personal evolution.

Her ensemble, titled Bravehearts, was more than fashion—it was a tribute to femininity, lineage, and transformation. Crafted with sculptural precision, the gown featured an antique gold breastplate adorned with ghungroos and crystals. Two symbolic forms—Mother Heart and Baby Heart—were linked by a chain umbilical cord, visually narrating the bond of motherhood.

The look also paid homage to the late André Leon Talley, legendary fashion editor and Black icon, through a dramatic double-panelled cape—a nod to his iconic silhouettes and influence on the fashion world. By blending Indian craftsmanship with global symbolism, Kiara’s appearance was both a personal milestone and a powerful cultural statement.

This is a silent tribute to that — it’s a reminder that everything we do paves the way for the next generation.”
