Love her or hate her, you definitely can’t ignore Priyanka Chopra Jonas. On one hand, the actress has been showered with praise for her work in Ethiopia as the UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. And on the other, mercilessly trolled for her bold and unusual Met Gala ensemble.

She is no stranger to negative comments online and in the most recent incident, the point of contention was an international magazine cover shoot for which she received a lot of social media hate.

Priyanka was the face of InStyle Magazine for their July cover in which she wore a shimmery Tarun Tahiliani hand-embroidered couture saree. While people from the film and fashion industry lauded her for showcasing an Indian outfit and its versatility on a global platform, desi fans were far from impressed.

Here is the cover shared by Priyanka on Instagram.

Netizens were of the opinion that she disrespected the saree by choosing to skip wearing a blouse. In addition, they said that the focus of the cover was on her bare back rather than the saree which she claimed to be promoting.

People took to the comments section to express their displeasure saying that this isn’t how a saree is worn traditionally.

Did Priyanka dilute the significance of a saree by reinventing how it is worn or was it cool for her to style it this way because fashion is all about pushing the boundaries? The debate is still on but we think she should get full points for pulling off the experimental look and bringing the heat #SareeNotSorry.
