These Outfits Prove I'm Right to Be Obsessed With Priyanka Chopra Jonas's Style
She's an actress, philanthropist and was voted one of the world's most beautiful women. We dare ask, is there anything that Priyanka Chopra Jonas can't do? Having long dominated the Bollywood film scene, Priyanka's metamorphosis into the Hollywood star that she is today began in 2016, when she won critical acclaim for her role in the gritty drama series Quantico. Now she's easily one of the most in-demand actresses working right now, having starred in a slew of successful films in just a few short years. That said, there's more to Priyanka than just her movies. In 2018, she became a key investor in Bumble, the dating, work and friendship app, proving she's just as comfortable in a board meeting as she is walking the red carpet.
Speaking of the latter, Priyanka has also demonstrated undeniable sartorial flair. In fact, she's easily one of the most unique and daring dressers on the celebrity circuit. Of course, she wears couture gowns extremely well, but what we find ourselves continually impressed with is her off-duty ensembles—the looks she compiles without the aid of a glam squad.
From bold hues and clashing prints to more brazen trends like white leather and neon, Priyanka Chopra's style knows no bounds. As such, she's fast becoming one of our favourite celebs to look to for outfit inspiration. Keep scrolling to see her best-ever looks. Trust us—Priyanka is a fashion force to be reckoned with.

Even Priyanka can't resist the allure of a chic designer logo belt.
Perspex sandals and a pastel skirt suit? This outfit is the epitome of '90s styling.
Priyanka knows that midi skirts and high-neck tops will always make for the chicest attire.

Having tied the knot in December 2018, Priyanka found herself once again in a wedding dress (only this time, it was a creation by Georges Hobeika, which she wore to Cannes Film Festival in May 2019).
This Emilio Pucci lace-insert dress looks like it was made for the actress.
Giving Angelina Jolie a run for her money in a sultry, custom made sequinned Roberto Cavalli dress complete with a thigh-high split.
Layering icy hues to excellent avail for a day of meetings in New York City back in April 2019.

Looking every inch the Hollywood siren in a draped sequinned gown, diamond necklace and nude heels.
White leather with neon trims shouldn't work, but somehow, on Priyanka, it really, really does.
Can we wear this combo of a checked coat, jeans and nude boots for the entirety of autumn/winter 2019, please?
Walking in a Broadway show in £15,000 worth of Chanel? If only we could swap live with Priyanka, even just for a day…
This is all the proof you need that you can never, ever go wrong with monochromatic outfits.
Looking every inch the elevated working girl in a chic skirt suit from one of her favourite designers, Dior.
Take note—this is how to wear one colour from top to toe. We love how she effortlessly clashes her heritage-check coat with a more casual plaid shirt.

Even python prints are no match for this sartorially blessed star.

Yes, it seems that Priyanka is a firm fan of tonal dressing. Well, if it ain't broken…
Looking like a modern-day Marie Antoinette in a jacquard gown from Vivienne Westwood for the premiere of her latest film, Isn't It Romantic, in February 2019.
We hadn't considered wearing a floral suit with a matching shirt (until now, that is).
Proof that her brains match her beauty, Priyanka invested in Bumble's Mumbai launch at the end of last year. This sequinned rainbow dress from Elie Saab is what she chose to ring in the celebrations. We probably would have, too.
On 2 December 2018, Priyanka and Nick hosted a lavish concert for their wedding guests ahead of their nuptials. We don't know about you, but we don't think Priyanka's ever looked so radiant.
Camel and tomato red might not be a classic colour combination, but we think it should be if they look this chic together.
Priyanka looks the '90s style part in this sheer slip dress, which she expertly pairs with a diamond collar and clear sandals.
We'd gladly wear this printed midi dress–and–coral court shoe combination day in and day out.
Taking in Kate Spade's latest collection (while wearing an ensemble from the brand) during New York Fashion Week in September 2018.
Having been friends for years, it came as no surprise that Priyanka received a much-coveted invitation to the royal wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. So what does one wear to the biggest event in one's social calendar? A designer favourite, Vivienne Westwood, of course!
For the Met Gala in 2018, the theme of which was Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination, Priyanka wore a decadent velvet gown and gold headdress from Ralph Lauren.
For her first Met Gala attendance in 2017, Priyanka turned heads (and secured the next year's invite) in a Ralph Lauren trench coat/gown.
Simple but highly effective, every woman should have a white midi dress in her outfit repertoire.
Priyanka sets herself apart from the usual red carpet suspects in this sculptural Zuhair Murad gown, which she chose to wear for the Oscars in February 2017.
Nothing looks more elegant than a printed midi dress, strappy sandals and a top-handle bag.
For her first Oscars after-party in 2016, Priyanka looked stunning in this silver embellished two-piece from Jenny Packham.
From the moment Priyanka started making waves in Hollywood circles, we knew she'd become a fashion force to be reckoned with. Case in point? This Vera Wang gown, which she wore for the 2016 People's Choice Awards.
