His friends from the fashion industry hosted a fashionable soiree for designer Wendell Rodricks in Mumbai last night.

The reason? Because the Government of India has honoured him this year with the prestigious Padmashree Award.

Wendell told us, “It’s a win for the entire industry and I’m happy that the Indian fashion industry is finally being recognized.”

Of course, some his favourite muses, models and style mavens attended this do. Among them were Malaika Arora Khan, Evelyn Sharma, Pooja Bedi, Pia Trivedi and Payal Khandwala.

Take a look at what they wore:

Evelyn Sharma is one of the hottest new girls in Bollywood and now, she’s also trying her hand at fashion design. Last night, she wore a floral maxi that was of her own design. She accessorized it with a gold necklace and an interesting watch/cuff on her wrist. Like?

Malaika Arora Khan was without doubt, the hottest woman in the room. She wore a black one-shoulder jumpsuit by Wendell, which was belted at the waist. A thick cuff on her arm and a blingy black clutch finished off her look. Isn’t she a dazzler?

Designer and artist Payal Khandwala is almost always seen in her own designs and last night was no exception. We liked the way she paired her purple skirt with a textured white camisole and that statement red beaded floral necklace.

Catwalk queen Pia Trivedi wowed us with this cowled skirt by Stella McCartney and that gold clutch by Valentino. And don’t you love that cute tie-up at her neckline?

And finally, Pooja Bedi flaunted her sexy figure in a bottle-green strapless dress by Gauri & Nainika. Check out the cute bows on her peep-toes and on her clutch with a crystal bug in the middle.
