Much has been written about the slick and sophisticated show at the Ramani Fernando Sunsilk Academy Graduation, but little has been said about the elite invitees to the occasion. There were many dazzling stars from the big and small screen and from the creme-de-la-creme of the style conscious world. There were the leading designers, apart from the two who contributed to the show, many a hairstylists and beauticians joined in to cheer the creativity and innovative ideas on the catwalk. Geetha Kumarasinghe made a statement in a saree that sparkled and glittered. The pale pinky biege background was foil to a irregular border design in pink mother of pearl sequins. Crystals glittered at the base of her neck, and a broad bracelet adorned her wrist, and she carried a stone studded silver handbag to be the embodiment of glitz and glamour. Sangeetha on the other hand favoured a traditional look and wore a saree of black silk checked in gold with little gold motifs in the check. There was a narrow red and gold border to the saree and a glittering gold woven pallu. Her blouse was in a shot silk and she wore a large collar necklace and kudu eardrops to finish a picture of eastern oomph. A dress was the choice of Anarkali Akarsha. The bare shouldered black dress had a shimmering silver spun into the fabric and was vaguely splashed in a terra-cotta and white. Designer Ruchira Silva had her long evening gown in a black and white print, with the bare shouldered top from the empire waist upwards patterned in a contemporary design, belted at the waistline in a broad band of diamanthe. Sadira Wimalasekera teamed a halter necked bouson top, which had a design of flowers in black only on one side of the V neckline, with a just above the knee slim black skirt. A white saree with sprays in a gleaming bronze which was embossed Maeve Martenstynne wore with a deep brown sleeveless blouse and a necklace of two strands in white and bronze pearlised beads. Colourful was the top Cheryl wore in kurta style, the fabric patterned in large dots, and the front worked elaborately in aquamarine and pink for sheer distinction. The winner of them all though was Ramani herself who wore a black silk saree with a border rising from the hemline in licks of flame like print in amber shading into white, she wore with a high necked blouse worked in front in subdued gold. With her impeccable sense of style she wore the saree draped in the traditional style with no gimmicks to make a perfect ensemble.
