The inaugural edition of Vogue Values: Women of Excellence, presented by Tira and hosted in partnership with Mercedes-Benz, Roku Gin and FnP Luxe, brought together visionaries from sport, culture, entrepreneurship, entertainment, social impact and beyond, for a day of conversations and an evening of recognition.
Among those celebrated was Jyothi Yarraji, honoured for her record-breaking performance and continued dominance on the track. In the afternoon, she took the stage as part of a sport-focused panel, sharing the platform with Paralympian Sheetal Devi and Jinisha Sharma of Capri Sports.

For the evening, Yarraji stepped onto the carpet in a Sharnita Nandwana creation that gave the classic black dress a new edge. The asymmetric neckline cut across the collarbone, secured by a hand-embellished strap that doubled as detailing. The corseted bodice defined the waist, before flowing into a floor-length skirt punctuated by a high slit. Hand-beaded tulle layered over the gown adds texture, while geometric patterning across the surface gives it a sharp, architectural finish.
For accessories, a sculptural serpent ear cuff from Swarovski wrapped around Jyothi Yarraji’s entire ear, coiling into a crystal-studded design. On her feet, black Jimmy Choo pumps finished with glittering bows added a polished yet playful touch. Her hair was worn open with a subtle side part, tucked neatly behind one ear to spotlight the jewellery. Makeup stayed clean, with neutral tones and defined eyes.
