When it comes to red-carpet dressing, Priyanka Chopra never holds back on serving Old Hollywood glamour. With a penchant for dazzling, formfitting gowns, the actor often chooses to wear major brands like Versace, Halpern, and Dolce & Gabbana, and up-and-coming designers like Robert Wun. But the head-turning hue that she can’t get enough of? Red, of course. And Chopra’s latest appearance proves why it’s her favorite color.
At the London premiere of the Amazon Prime Video show Citadel this week, the Indian-born actor was the ultimate red-carpet bombshell while posing on the step-and-repeat of the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. The focal point of the ensemble was most certainly her custom red satin Vivienne Westwood dress, which was complete with a corseted bodice, an off-the-shoulder drape, and a dramatic floor-length skirt. Chopra finished off the glamorous look with Bulgari jewelry pieces, as well as a matching red lip and a voluminous blowout hairstyle.
Previously, Chopra has worn numerous iterations of memorable red dresses. Whether it’s a sexy cutout Cult Gaia number for her 40th-birthday celebrations, or attending the UNICEF Snowflake Ball in an asymmetric gown by Salvatore Ferragamo, the star consistently shuts down the red carpet in scene-stealing red.
A break from the Barbiecore trend that dominated our social media feeds last year, deep reds appeared widely on the autumn-winter 2023 runways, notably at Ferragamo in Milan, David Koma in London, and Proenza Schouler in New York. However, Priyanka Chopra has been wearing the shade for a number of years, proving that she’s long been ahead of the curve.
