The wait is over, the steps are sizzling, and Kiara Advani has officially dropped jaws at the Met Gala 2025! After months of anticipation, our Bollywood beauty made her grand (and glowing) debut, flaunting her baby bump like an absolute queen. The theme was Tailored For You but, this moment was tailored by her and for the history books.
Kiara Advani and her baby bump debut at the met gala 2025
Looking like a literal work of wearable art, Kiara stunned in a custom Gaurav Gupta gown that screamed elegance with a side of fierce. Ditching the usual soft glam, she went full fashion mode in a sculpted black number featuring a golden breastplate – one side representing her heart, the other her baby’s, joined by a chain symbolizing the umbilical cord. Who else could turn anatomy into high fashion? No one. That’s who.
The floor-sweeping striped cape brought the drama, while her soft waves and dainty braids added just the right touch of whimsy. Add some delicate makeup and a whole lot of poise, and you’ve got a red carpet debut that’s one for the Met legends list.
Sidharth Malhotra = Husband Goals Unlocked
Cheering her on like the supportive hubby he is, Sidharth Malhotra flew into NYC just in time to hold her hand and heart on the way to the Met. From clicking fan selfies to escorting his queen into the venue, Sid gave us a rom-com moment live from Manhattan. Can someone give this couple a Netflix special already?
From Pizza Slices To Pep Talks: Behind Kiara’s Big Moment
Before serving couture on the Met carpet, Kiara Advani kept it real backstage. Her prep involved pep talks to her baby bump and a solid slice of pizza. Because what’s a Met Gala moment without a little carb loading?
In her own words, “My brief to Gaurav was this is the next phase of my life that I want that to be a part of the expression and of this outfit… I love the way we have interpreted the theme and the way it tied up with me doing this for my baby like André Leon Talley paved the way for the next generation”. She also mentioned, while eating a big slice of pizza, “It’s my MET diet”. She further said, “I just want to tell you all that after a long time, I know this is my new body, but I am really feeling hot in this new body.”
Kiara’s look wasn’t just Met-worthy – it was meaningful. Styled by the ever-iconic Anaita Shroff Adajania, her outfit titled Bravehearts was a tribute to individuality, motherhood, and the legacy of icons like André Leon Talley. If that’s not how you mix culture and couture, we don’t know what is.
Bollywood at the Met: Kiara Joins the A-List League
Sharing the global stage with legends like Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, and Diljit Dosanjh, Kiara’s debut cements her as not just a style icon but a cultural force. While this year’s theme spotlighted Black Dandyism and tailored excellence, Kiara made sure India’s glam was loud and proud.
