Alia Bhatt stuns in a backless gown for BAFTA Awards 2026
For her debut appearance at the 79th BAFTA Awards, Alia Bhatt wore a custom silver sequin halter-neck backless gown by Gucci. It is worth mentioning that Alia is Gucci’s first Indian global ambassador. The much-loved actress paired the backless gown with a sheer wrap, which was a tribute to icon, Marilyn Monroe. During a conversation with British Vogue, Alia Bhatt was quoted as saying:
“I was like, ‘Hey, it’s gonna be really cold and the dress is backless…I’m very excited about the look. Because I’m a presenter I wanted to bring the glam, but also keep it really elegant, nothing overwhelming. It sits really lightly on the body.”
