As I sat at my work from home set-up waiting for Priyanka Chopra Jonas to enter our Zoom call, I thought about the last time I had spoken to the actress. I interviewed her back in 2017, right around the time Quantico was coming to an end. Obviously, a lot has changed for the actress as her career has blossomed in the US since then.

Priyanka was excited to chat about her new role as creative director for the sparkling seltzer brand BON V!V, but she also spoke openly about her style evolution, favorite red carpet moments, and dressing cozy for the holiday season

While dressing up for the holiday season is most definitely different this year due to COVID, that dthe actress also seems to be following what most of us have been doing, and that’s staying cozy.

“My holiday season starts with Diwali, which happens in November. Then, we go into Thanksgiving, and the [Christmas] tree comes up right after. I’ll be on set a lot, but I think that this year, fashion will have to be comfortable and elevated at the same time. That is one of the big reasons why my BON V!V x Priyanka Chopra Jonas Holiday Kit ($100) is super fun. It has this amazing 100 percent silk pajama set, [designed] by Helena Quinn, a Los Angeles-based female-owned brand. These pajamas are amazing! One is an emerald green color and the other one comes in champagne/rose gold, and they’re so comfortable. They feel like pajamas, but at the same time, you can take a picture in them and feel like you’re dressed up.”

Since brides still try to recreate Priyanka’s wedding looks, for which she incorporated South Asian designers, I asked her to name more of her favorite labels. We discussed what being South Asian means to her, as she’s one of the few Bollywood actors who have managed to pave their way in Hollywood. In a powerful statement, Priyanka said, “[Being South Asian] is my identity. It’s who I am. It’s where I came from. It leads into every single thing I do. It’s everything that [I am], from the walk I walk, the talk I talk, the clothes I wear, and the legacy I leave behind. It’s all going to come from my home, which is India.”
