Penélope Cruz has brought her fabulous sense of style all the way to India for a special night out.

The star was one of many celebrities to attend the star-studded opening of the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, a new multi-disciplinary cultural space in Mumbai.

The gala commemorating its grand opening saw the likes of Zendaya and Tom Holland – plus the former's stylist Law Roach – Priyanka Chopra with Nick Jonas, Gigi Hadid, Derek Blasberg, Emma Chamberlain and more attend.

For the special night, Penélope broke away from her usual Chanel picks – the actress is a longtime ambassador of the French fashion house – and opted for a Tamara Ralph dress instead.

The stunning gown was in a perfect light pink color, and featured an off the shoulder cut, an impossibly high slit, plus a whimsical feather trim in a lighter pink shade throughout the hem of the gown's lengthy train.

She had her hair styled in a voluminous mod ponytail with her side-swept bangs perfectly framing her face, plus burgundy lipstick, gold pendant earrings, and sky-high, strappy silver pumps.

The star had a pretty in pink moment

Fans had nothing but praise for the Spanish star's choice of look, taking to social media to write: "She looks gorgeous, the dress looks great in movement," and: "She's looks amazing," as well as: "Best look in years," plus another fan cheekily suggested: "She looks like a glamorous sea anemone and I am 100% here for it," as others left strings of heart-eye and fire emojis.

Penélope is set to make her return to the Met Gala as co-chair after four years this May

This year, the Oscar-winning actress will be in attendance not only as a guest, but also as co-chair of the annual event, alongside Michaela Coel, Dua Lipa, Roger Federer, and of course with Vogue editor Anna Wintour steering fashion's biggest night.

The annual ball is traditionally on the first Monday of May, which this year falls on the very first day of the month, and this year's exhibit at the Met Costume Institute honors the one and only Karl Lagerfeld, who helmed Chanel from 1983 until his death in 2019.
