Global superstar Priyanka Chopra Jonas ushered in the festive season in true Bollywood-meets-Hollywood style at Anjula Acharia’s pre-Diwali bash in New York City on October 11. The star-studded affair, titled “All That Glitters”, brought together leading South Asian creators, entrepreneurs, and artists for an evening of sparkle, joy, and cultural pride.
Priyanka shared a heartfelt note on Instagram, reflecting on the emotional power of Diwali:
“To see the incredible South Asian community and our allies turn up in gorgeous, sparkling Diwali outfits to celebrate the victory of good over evil was so emotional… Wishing everyone love, peace and prosperity this Diwali season.”
Priyanka Chopra’s Bold Indo-Western Look Steals The Show
While most guests opted for traditional silhouettes, Priyanka broke the mold with a stunning ivory Indo-Western pantsuit by Zuhair Murad. Her three-piece ensemble redefined festive glamour:
- A halter-neck bralette fashioned from a white sarong with criss-cross detailing, offering a modern twist on the traditional choli.
- A sheer, full-sleeved embroidered jacket with intricate mirror work that sparkled under the Diwali lights.
- High-waisted flared pants, completing the coordinated ivory look with shimmer and sophistication.
Her styling was kept minimal yet impactful — a delicate maang tikka, diamond drop earrings, and a fluffy white clutch accentuated her look. With dewy skin, soft nude lips, and voluminous lashes, her makeup exuded understated glamour.
Adding a nostalgic Bollywood touch, Priyanka’s hair bun adorned with white roses and gajra paid homage to Indian tradition while complementing her contemporary attire.
