Colourful sarongs, Modrian-esque accessories and floaty beachwear defined Indian fashion designer Wendell Rodricks's aesthetic. Alongside, the Goan designer created ethereal gowns and eveningwear in vibrant whites, as well as menswear in relaxed silhouettes.

Rodricks, who passed away suddenly on Wednesday, February 12, established his label in 1989 and was active for neatly three decades after.

He was working on a costume museum in his home state at the time of his death.
