The actor, who is representing Grey Goose at the event, reveals that her clothes will reflect the theme 'Live Victoriously'. “The clothes I wear will have drama. At the same time, as an Indian actor on a global platform, I have the responsibility of endorsing our weavers and wearing outfits that reflect our rich cultural heritage. My stylist Ami Patel and I have been brainstorming for a few weeks. We, along with Falguni and Shane Peacock, are designing a unique saree. The idea is to revive the forgotten weaves and bring them to the fore so that the world is more aware of our rich fabrics and culture,” says Ranaut. Ranbir Kapoor FINALLY REACTS to Kangana Ranaut's apolitical comment on him One of the most fashionable actors in the business, Ranaut says she isn't one to worry much about a red carpet appearance for months. “I can only give one week," she laughs, "I was so busy with Panga. I had to gain almost 10 kilos; Ashwini (Panga’s director) wanted me to have thunder thighs. During trials, I realised I have to lose some weight.” Citing the Met Gala's theme of Camp this year, Ranaut emphasises that having a unique style of dressing is essential at such international galas. “In 2012, I attended Rakesh Roshan’s birthday party without eyebrows. So dressing riskily has never been a deterrent for me. I was one of the first actresses to start wearing sarees to the airport. I use fashion as an expression of myself. When I was seeing the Met gala pictures, I thought to myself that in India, the real queen of camp would be Rekhaji. It’s wonderful how our women Priyanka (Chopra Jonas) and Deepika (Padukone) are making their mark there.
