writes,
‘@aishwaryaraibachchan_arb
wears
the
‘Heiress
of
Clam’,
a
custom
creation
imagined
in
a
draped
form
and
spiritual
detail.

‘The
gown
is
hand-embroidered
with
an
abstract
rendition
of
the
cosmos
in
bursts
of
silver,
gold,
charcoal,
and
black,
accented
with
micro
glass
crystals
to
capture
dimension
and
light.’

‘Enveloping
her
is
a
Banarasi
brocade
cape
handwoven
in
Varanasi,
India,
inscribed
with
a
Sanskrit
shloka
from
the
Bhagavad
Gita.

कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते
मा
फलेषु
कदाचन।
मा
कर्मफलहेतुर्भूर्मा
ते
सङ्गोऽस्त्वकर्मणि
—
Which
means
‘You
have
a
right
to
perform
your
actions,
but
not
to
the
fruits
of
those
actions.
Let
not
the
fruits
of
action
be
your
motive,
nor
let
your
attachment
be
to
inaction.’

Aishwarya
greeted
spectators
with
a
namaste
and
flying
kisses.

She
wore
bold
red
lips
and
statement
earrings
and
was
styled
by
Allia
Al
Rufai

Aishwarya
with

Helen
Mirren
and

Cara
Delevingne
on
the
red
carpet.
