Paradise island of Sri Lanka is a must-visit to show off an eclectic and effortless style

The views and vibes of Weligama make for a stunning scape and the perfect backdrop to showcase fashion staples and separates
Sri Lanka

As a part of a global collaboration—Vogue on Wheels—teams across the world made their way to distant countries to create visual narratives interweaved with fashion. Vogue India's initiative was shot in Sri Lanka—a multi-cultural paradise island bursting with creativity. As models, Ashley Radjarame and Shivaruby play muse for tropical dressing replete with fluid silhouettes and pops of colour.

Ahead, soak in the Sri Lankan sun and fashion.

The views and vibes of Weligama in Sri Lanka make it a must-visit to show off an eclectic—and effortless—style.

FLOATING POINTS

On a boat docked near Weligama’s fish market, model Ashley Radjarame blends a Polo Ralph Lauren top and striped maxi skirt with her vivid surroundings. Earrings from Otiumberg.

IN THE SWIM

Radjarame tests the waters (and gathers the sun on her shoulders) in a Stella McCartney dress.

JUNGLE LAND

Lush, green surroundings are the ideal counterpoint to Shivaruby’s bold-striped Bottega Veneta dress and Sapir Bachar earrings

RUNNING THE TABLES

Shivaruby pulls off that rare trick of being elegant with beachy ease in a Prada dress and Maison Margiela shoes. Sapir Bachar earrings

ONE OF EVERYTHING

A quick stop at a local store doubles the colour-and-pattern effect of Radjarame’s Ferragamo dress and shirt. Mejuri ring.

The fun never ends for Shivaruby, who wears a Dior shirt and shorts paired with Maison Margiela shoes and Prada socks. Sapir Bachar earrings. Ralph Lauren tie.

SEA CREATURES

Lounging by the sea, Shivaruby merges with the habitat in frog-shaped shoes by JW Anderson paired with a top from Amesh Wijesekera and pants by Karu Research. Mejuri earrings

ROCK THE BOAT

Seconds away from heading to sea, Shivaruby’s Wales Bonner shirt dress matches the nautical theme in a whole new way. Otiumberg earrings

SEEING GREEN

Shivaruby takes respite in the shadows, feeling
the breeze in a Moonray top


NET GAINS

Shivaruby is quite the catch in a billowing Alexander Mcqueen dress and Sapir Bachar earrings.
