Wow! Kamala Harris looks absolutely stunning! 😍 That Off-White gown is such a departure from her usual power suits but she carries it with equal confidence. Indian designers should take note - we need more global representation at events like these!

While the outfit is elegant, I wonder if such extravagant fashion events are appropriate when the world faces so many challenges. Our own Bollywood stars attend similar events while farmers struggle back home. Priorities need to be balanced.

The black-and-cream combination is giving me major Sabyasachi vibes! 🇮🇳 Harris is rocking the global stage just like our own Indian leaders should. When will we see our women politicians make such bold fashion statements?

Interesting to see how Western politicians balance serious work with fashion. In India, if a female politician dressed like this, she'd be criticized for being "too showy." We really need to move beyond these double standards.

The designer nailed it by combining elegance with power dressing. Reminds me of how our sarees can be both graceful and commanding. Maybe next year we'll see fusion outfits blending Indian and Western styles at the Met Gala!

Not really feeling the outfit if I'm honest. The scarf looks like an afterthought. Our Indian designers create much more cohesive looks for our celebrities. The Met Gala theme deserved something more innovative from a VP.
