Dia attended the Met Gala wearing a custom creation by Mayyur Girotra featuring shola craft. Shola craft is one from Bengal using the milky-white of the Indian cork plant and is predominantly seen in the crowns that adorn the Devi during Durga Puja festivities. Although, nowadays, you can see shola flowers and framed art pieces as well.
The using of the craft to make a gown was so very fascinating. I really liked it.
Update: Turns out they used shola art as an inspiration but used other materials to mimic the effect. Which kind of is a killjoy for me.
