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. (ANI)
