The occasion was the launch of the Chivas Studio in India, a chain of global luxury brand items from the house of Chivas Regal.

Goa designer Wendell Rodricks presented his collection 'On the Wings', with garments layered with feathered strokes and breezy fabrics.

Using a variety of fabrics from cotton and silk to paper and latex, the designer played with the garments unconventionally.

The showstopper for the evening was not a Bollywood celebrity, but the veteran Sri Lankan all-rounder Sanath Jayasuriya who walked the ramp in style wearing an elegant suit designed by Wendell.

The cricketer praised the designer for his collection after the show.

"It is very nice and comfortable to wear all these. That's the way his clothes have always been. So I love to wear his clothes," said Jayasuriya.

On asked whether he was nervous before walking the ramp, Jayasuriya said, "I was a bit nervous but Wendell Rodricks briefed me everything before."

The occasion also saw the participation of celebrated artistes from various fields like music, fashion, photography and others.
