Jacqueline Fernandez sparkles at IIFA Fashion show

Jacqueline Fernandez dazzled in a Manish Malhotra creation at the IIFA Fashion Rocks show on June 3 at Colombo, Sri Lanka.

The 26-year-old Sri Lankan beauty was the show stopper for the Manish Malhotra show.

She wore a maroon velvet lehenga with heavy gotta borders, and an ankle length heavily sequined nude sheer mesh top that was flared at the helm; with a plunging neckline, empire waist and long sleeves.

Sans jewelry, she wore very light make up. Her waist length layered cut hair, styled in loose waves, framed her face.

She walked the ramp with Sri Lankan cricketer, Kumar Sangakkara, who was dressed in a blue and white sherwani by Manish Malhotra.

She was also the show stopper for the Sri Lankan designer Yolanda who designed a fusion dress for her keeping with her international image.

Jacqueline will be performing at the IIFA show.

"Actually, this year it's going to be very different for me. I am not going to perform on any songs from my films. I am going to perform with a Sri Lankan dance troupe. Being a Sri Lankan, I want to do the opening numbers, I want to do the welcome number and want to perform with Sri Lankan dancers," Jacqueline told NDTV.

She said she will be supporting the Sri Lankan cricket team during the IIFA charity match as Kumar Sangakkara is her buddy.

The Sri Lanka team won.
