Arpan Vohra has opted for a nautical theme with his latest offerings at the LFW.

Inspired by and named after the Styx song I'm Sailing Away, designer Arpan Vohra presented his Sail Away collection on Day One of Lakme.

The line is representative of an adventurous, carefree spirit and the styles have key elements connected to all things nautical -- ropes, chords, anchor-inspired metal studs and knots.

What's more, the designer roped in Bong beauty Riya Sen to model his showstopping number -- check it out.
