Actress Kiara Advani showed off her baby bump in an exquisite outfit by renowned couturier Gaurav Gupta when she walked into the 2025 MET Gala at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
Kiara went to Instagram, where she posted a series of photos in Gaurav Gupta Couture with the caption 'Bravehearts'. She sported a gold sculpted breastplate with two hearts and a sweeping white cape.
The actress captioned, "Mama's first Monday in May."
Her actor husband, Sidharth Malhotra, could not take his eyes off his wife as he posted the photos on his Instagram stories and captioned, "Heart emoji both brave hearts."
This year's Met Gala theme is "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style."
The designer, who had also dressed Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt for Paris Fashion Week for the first time, deconstructed the outfit and said that the outfit the actress wore had a deeper significance.
"Kiara Advani (@kiaraaliaadvani) in bespoke Gaurav Gupta Couture entitled 'Bravehearts' at her first Met Gala. A celebration of rebellion, heritage, and beginnings. Bravehearts is founded on the ethos of the Black Dandy — those who defied convention and redefined culture with elegance, power, and uniqueness," Gupta said.
He continued: On the pregnant Kiara Advani, the look becomes more profound, symbolizing how identity is passed down and reinterpreted across generations. At its essence, a gold sculpted breastplate with two hearts - mother and child—joined by an abstract umbilical cord. She is surrounded by a dramatic white cape reminiscent of André Leon Talley's 2010 Met Gala look; the piece is armor and offering.
The fashion designer boasts a celebrity clientele who have worn his designs, including personalities like Beyoncé, Shakira, Jenna Ortega, Jr. NTR, Bebe Rexha, Sharon Stone, Jeena Ortega, Sharon Stone, Ashanti, Luis Fonsi, Lizzo, Kylie Minogue, Megan Thee Stallion, Saweetie, Paris Hilton, Mindy Kaling, Angela Bassett, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Kriti Sanon, Janhvi Kapoor, and Kareena Kapoor Khan.
