Met Gala 2024: Natasha Poonawalla, Executive Director of Serum Institute of India, one of the world's largest vaccine manufacturers by volume, never stops surprising with her unconventional and striking fashion choices. Especially, if it's Met Gala, she has to be unique. Ahead of her red carpet appearance at the prestigious event, Natasha took to Instagram and dropped pictures of her look.
Natasha donned a quilt-like gown with a thigh-high slit and a pillow attached to her back. She wrote, “Sleeping Beauty Met Day!!! I couldn’t think of anything better than this Viktor and Rolf piece from their AW2018 collection to honour the opening of The Met’s latest exhibition; resuscitating iconic fashion and honouring legendary mastery in craft and design. Excited to be celebrating The Costume Institute later today!”

Last year, Natasha’s Schiaparelli gown, reminiscent of futuristic couture, showcased avant-garde design and bold silver hues. She opted for a sleek ponytail that she adorned with silver accessories.
Before that, she wore designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee's ensemble. Her saree with bustier and elaborate jewellery gave the red carpet a dash of Indian elegance. The designer wrote on Instagram, “Sabyasachi contributed to Natasha's vision by celebrating Indian craftsmanship with a gold handcrafted printed tulle sari and trail embroidered with silk floss thread and embellished with bevel beads, semi-precious stones, crystals, sequins, and applique printed velvet.”
The Met Gala, often hailed as 'Fashion's Biggest Night', will uphold its tradition by returning on the first Monday of May. This year's theme is 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion'. Unlike previous themes, this year's focus will be on reviving unique garments from various centuries, offering a novel perspective to fashion enthusiasts. While the gala will celebrate the Costume Institute's new exhibition, 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,' the official dress theme is 'The Garden of Time.'
This year's exhibition will feature significant pieces spanning over 400 years of fashion history, showcasing iconic designers such as Elsa Schiaparelli, Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, and Hubert de Givenchy. Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Chris Hemsworth, and Bad Bunny will serve as the night's co-chairs. The theme aims to celebrate delicate pieces of fashion that are often deemed too fragile for wear, affectionately termed the 'sleeping beauties'.
