The name of the event is Le Défilé “Walk Your Worth,” and the Paris Fashion Week has always stood for innovation in the world of fashion and beauty, while simultaneously spreading the message of self-worth and the bonding between women. The theme this year, ‘Walk Your Worth,’ absorbs well into Bhatt’s rising global influence and her commitment to women’s empowerment. As Alia Bhatt walks down the runway, it would be at the confluence of fashion and beauty, representing a new breed of Indian talent making a dent in the global platform.
That Bhatt finds a place in this prestigious program is a sure shot indication of her rise in status in the international arena, joining the lines of Aishwarya Rai, who has been a long-serving representation of Indian beauty and fashion to the world. The bars that Rai have set among Indian actresses on international events are very high, and Bhatt’s appearance in Paris Fashion Week marks her arrival as a topmost international icon with an assorted charm and talent to present to the world.
She will be joined on the runway by an impressive cast of international ambassadors that also includes Aishwarya Rai, Leïla Bekhti, Marie Bochet, Cindy Bruna, Viola Davis, Jane Fonda, Luma Grothe, Kendall Jenner, Liya Kebede, Aja Naomi King, Eva Longoria, Andie MacDowell, Bebe Vio, and Yseult. To feature among such a multicultural and renowned assembly underlines Bhatt’s position as an important player within the international fashion and beauty arena.
On this milestone Alia Bhatt averred, “Firsts are always special and I am very honoured to walk for Le Défilé at Paris Fashion Week. Being amidst such inspiring, powerful, and confident women is a huge moment of pride for me. Really looking forward to joining them on this platform that celebrates sisterhood and empowerment.”
The fact that Alia Bhatt marks her debut at the Paris Fashion Week is not a personal triumph alone; it is a proud moment for Indian cinema. Another feather in her cap further cements her status as a modern-day global icon and puts her remarkable journey into perspective far ahead in the world of fashion and beyond.
