Grey Goose Altius x Amit Aggarwal: A Dazzling Dialogue Between Couture and Cocktails

When French elegance entwines with Indian creativity, the result is nothing short of extraordinary. At the second edition of Cocktail Couture with Exon: The Code of Light, GREY GOOSE Altius partnered with visionary designer Amit Aggarwal to create a spellbinding evening that redefined the idea of elevation, across couture, cocktails, and cultural expression.

A Couture Language of Light & Transformation

Known for his sculptural, futuristic silhouettes, Amit Aggarwal's innovative designs drew inspiration from Altius' glacial smoothness and French luxury heritage. The runway became a crystalline corridor, alive with alpine resonance, where garments shimmered like radiant codes carried by the body.

Amit Aggarwal described the collaboration as an "homage to brilliance"—an immersive translation of purity, fluidity, and elegance into ethereal, futuristic couture. Translucent fabrics, sharp geometric lines, and metallic shimmer mirrored the ice-reflecting light of the French Alps, giving life to ensembles that were as powerful as they were poetic.

The Altinis: Alpine Smoothness in a Glass

The evening wasn't just about couture—it was a multi-sensory journey. Master mixologist Avinash Kapoli unveiled a collection of bespoke Altinis, cocktails designed to embody both French finesse and Indian richness.

Each creation fused locally sourced ingredients with Altius' signature smoothness:

Together, they transformed couture's artistry into liquid poetry, offering guests an elevated taste of glacial brilliance.

Couture Beyond the Runway: Bespoke Barware

Amit Aggarwal extended his vision by unveiling exclusive couture-inspired barware, sculptural pieces in icy blues and teals, echoing fractured glaciers and refracted light. These objects blurred the lines between fashion and function, embodying Grey Goose Altius' essence of refinement in every detail.

A Starry Evening of Elegance

The night unfolded in layers of spectacle:

• Kalki Koechlin opened the event with a bilingual French-English toast to duality and artistry.
• Sahil Vasudeva's live piano score set a mood of crystalline intimacy.
• Showstoppers Ibrahim Ali Khan and Sharvari glided down the glacier-blue runway, embodying Aggarwal's sculptural couture masterpieces.
• The celebration crescendoed with DJ Nina's high-energy set, transforming the space into a luminous afterparty where couture and cocktails danced together.

French Luxury, Indian Creativity – Perfectly Elevated

As Siddhant Kapoor, Brand Manager – Bacardi India, reflected: "This edition of Cocktail Couture goes beyond indulgence to craft cultural moments that elevate luxury into a lived experience."

Indeed, the night was more than fashion, more than cocktails—it was a convergence of craft, culture, and celebration, proving that the peak of luxury lies in the seamless dialogue between artistry and elegance. This collaboration exemplifies how luxury fashion transcends traditional boundaries, creating immersive experiences that celebrate both Indian creative excellence and international sophistication.
