Mumbai: Alia Bhatt made a breathtaking appearance at the BAFTA Film Awards 2026, held at the iconic Royal Festival Hall in London. As one of the presenters, Alia walked in and made one of her most memorable red carpet moments in the international stage as fashion lovers and fans looked in amazement.
The actor chose a custom-made silver sequinned gown by Gucci, which shimmered beautifully under the bright lights. The smooth halter-neck fit has clung to her body, and the cut at the back gave it a touch of daring. The general appearance was contemporary, sophisticated and easily graceful and hit the right chord between glamour and elegance.
Old-Hollywood Glam Meets Modern Elegance
To give the dress an old-fashioned feel, Alia Bhatt made her dress with a white fur stole that she wore around her arms and it fell loosely. This detail brought in classic old-Hollywood glamour and toned down the shine of the sequins, making the look polished and sophisticated.
She finished off with fine drop earrings, radiant natural make up, and gentle curls in the parting. Alia made sure that the statement gown was the central point in her look by keeping her jewellery basic and keeping her beauty choices simple. Again, she demonstrated that subtle glamour could be extremely effective.
Alia on Her Look and Inspirations
In an interview with British Vogue, Alia Bhatt clarified her dress selection, and indicated that, being a presenter, she wanted a dress that was sexy and at the same time, elegant and comfortable. She pointed out that the gown was lightweight on the body and she could move freely, yet be making a big statement.
She also revealed her style inspirations for the evening. For her hair, she looked to Brigitte Bardot. In the general mood, she was inspired by Monica Bellucci. And in honor of beauty, she gave a tribute to the Indian movie legend Rekha, with a lot of pride of introducing a bit of her origins into the international arena.
From Girl Next Door to Global Fashion Star
Alia Bhatt is culturally adored in India because of her girl-next-door, simple, and soft fashion decisions, but when it comes to international red carpet events, she has proven to be bold and experimental. Since her dreamy white ball dress by Prabal Gurung at her Met Gala debut, all the way to the dramatic saree by Sabyasachi at her second attendance, Alia has continued to push boundaries in style.
Even her look at the Red Sea International Film Festival last year stood out for its effortless glow and global appeal, proving her versatility as a fashion icon.
Final Thoughts
Alia Bhatt’s appearance at the BAFTA Film Awards 2026 was more than just a fashion moment. It was a celebration of confidence, elegance, and her growing presence on the global stage. Her gorgeous Gucci dress, considered styling, and inspirational meaning once again demonstrated as to why she is one of the most sought-after style idols of her generation.
Alia Bhatt is taking her fashion game to the next level with as much excitement as she can sustain as she keeps upon the international platforms as an ambassador of the Indian cinema and her audiences are in every sparkling moment.
