Twitterati has lots to say about Deepika and Priyanka's Met Gala looks

With halos and Pope-inspired dresses, the red carpet of the Met Gala 2018 saw Indian actors Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone making a statement with their ensembles, in line with the 'Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination' theme.



Priyanka, who made her debut internationally with the American drama series Quantico, opted for a wine red strapless Ralph Lauren gown with a billowing train paired with an embellished gold chain headdress reminiscent of a medieval knight. She completed her look with subtle make-up and maroon lips.

Deepika, who made her debut at the Met Gala last year, sported a red draped gown with a thigh high slit. Her ensemble was designed by Prabal Gurung. She accessorised her look with towering red heels.

However, Twitterati had some reservations in regards to both the actors' looks last night. While many tried to unfold what had happened to PeeCee's hairdo, some called Deeps outfit a tad too basic and totally out of place.

Here are some of the best tweets we gathered!

Is that Priyanka Chopra? Honestly I'd have a seizure if I saw her like that in the middle of the night.

This Twitter user had a better suggestion than Deeps stylist.

Imagine if this had happened. Just. Imagine.
