The young actor hit her Cinderella moment at the right spot as she looked elegant and flamboyant at the same time. Designer Falguni and Shane Peacock were presenting their "Bonjour Amer" collection at the fashion gala.

Incidentally, in Sara's spectacular debut, she found audience in co-star and rumoured boyfriend Kartik Aaryan and brother Ibrahim who were sitting next to each other in the front row and couldn't stop gushing over her poise walk and 'ada'.

I was very comfortable and had a lot of fun here. Thank you Shane and Falguni for this wonderful experience. I feel very grateful.

The 23-year-old actor said it was Falguni who reached out to her for turning showstopper for their collection and it was a perfect opportunity for her to make her ramp debut. Falguni said, "Sara is young, beautiful and peppy. She is the modern Indian bride."

The designer duo's collection was dedicated to the rich architecture of Jaipur's famed Amer fort and its sublime artwork.

They presented a range of bridal outfits, both womenswear and menswear, with the affluent use of hues like Spanish vanilla, lavender fog, smoke green, pewter, ballet pink, prism silver, scallop shell, Tuscan gold and midnight blue. The silhouettes weaved a web of modern eccentricity and the lehengas were juxtaposed with red carpet-worthy gowns, their asymmetrical layers cascading into long, sweeping trails.

The ongoing fashion week in the capital has so far witnessed so many designers displaying their collections with different showstoppers from Malaika Arora to Aditi Rao Hydari and Rakul Preet Singh. 

Indian Couture Week runs till Sunday, July 28.
