Alia Bhatt’s dresses are perfect for hot summer days, so start taking notes

Alia Bhatt is turning heads while promoting her upcoming film, Raazi, and for good reason. If her breezy dresses don’t make you think ‘why did I ever wear jeans’, we don’t know what will. Scroll for pictures.

There are so many reasons to love Alia Bhatt. From starring in some of our favourite movies to being an outspoken advocate for animal rights, it’s clear that she’s beautiful both inside and out — which is why it was no surprise at all that Alia’s fluorescent pink Burberry midi dress (her latest of many #summerfashiongoals outfits) had her looking casually stunning, while promotion her upcoming film, Raazi.

Alia accessorised her $1,195 ( ₹79,850) short puff-sleeved dress, featuring a tie neckline, delicate pintucked and empire waist, in matching pink pointed high heel pumps. Animated with irreverent doodles, Alia’s fluid silk dress is airy and the ankle-skimming silhouette with a side slit is great for movement. The 25-year-old styled her shoulder-length locks in soft curls and chose minimal eye liner and a pale pink lip for make-up.

With summer in full swing, you’d be looking to swap your jeans, leggings and sweatpants for dresses like Alia’s doodle print silk dress, as they are not only very on-trend (just look to Anushka Sharma and Priyanka Chopra), but they can also be styled with everything from white sneakers to tights.

Now that we’ve convinced you of the styling prowess and versatility of summer dresses, scroll through to see some of our favourite dresses Alia wore, while promoting Raazi that releases May 11, 2018.
