The actress walked the ramp for designer duo Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna on the fourth day of the Amazon India Fashion Week Spring/Summer '16.

"I am not here to become a fashion icon. Whatever I wear comes naturally to me. I don't want to make a statement when it comes to fashion. I am very simple and minimalistic when it comes to dressing up in my personal life," Athiya told PTI.

"Walking the ramp was a part of growing up for me. I obviously wanted to be a part of this. I always liked dressing up, make-up and hair. For me it is a dream come true and I feel very excited when I have to walk the ramp. I am a big fan of Sabyasachi (Mukherjee) and I would definitely love to walk the ramp for him some day," she said.

Athiya also said that Sonam Kapoor is the real fashion icon.

"Sonam is a fashion icon. She is amazing when it comes to experimenting with her looks, clothes, and always ends up doing an amazing job. She has created a position for her own," said Athiya.
