Priyanka Chopra made a stunning appearance at a high-profile dinner event in New York City, joining Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o and 'Euphoria' star Hunter Schafer.
The evening saw the actresses dress their best in shades of black as they celebrated a new collaboration between fashion designer Olivier Rousteing and a popular label. Priyanka stepped out in a shimmering black gown and wore her hair down in waves. Lupita Nyong’o opted for a striking monochrome look, while Hunter Schafer chose a bold mini-dress with tiny wings.
Photos from the event saw the ladies pose together for the shutterbugs and also catch up over drinks. It marked PeeCee's reunion with Lupita, who has been seen attending various other A-list parties and events.
The gathering came just ahead of the Met Gala, set to take place on May 5 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The ladies, who are known to turn heads in their dramatic fashion-forward ensembles, will have all eyes on them to see how they interpret the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”. Unlike past shows that highlighted the work of very famous designers like Karl Lagerfeld or Charles James, this exhibit includes a number of up-and-coming designers.
