Ace fashion designer Manish Malhotra, who has styled Bollywood's biggest stars, recently shared a special memory about dressing pop legend Michael Jackson.

The designer took to Instagram to post a throwback moment from 1998 when he was asked to create an outfit for Jackson for the Bollywood Awards in New York. Malhotra, in a long note, recalled the time when he had only "one day" to prepare the outfit and had to do so "without any measurements". The post also included a compilation of videos and pictures, including one where he posed with Jackson.

"Throwback: It was an honor and so exciting to be dressing the fabulous @michaeljackson at the Bollywood Awards held in 1998 at Nassau Coliseum, Long Island, New York. I won a Costume Award for @karanjohar's #KuchKuchHotaHai. When I got a message from Kamal Dhandona and the late S P Hinduja, the sponsors of the show, to dress #MichaelJackson, I was thrilled. At that time, in 1998, I wanted to blend a global infusion into the traditional sherwani cut, so I worked on a shorter sherwani with trousers and a shawl/stole in textured handloom with woven silk and brocade borders. All of it was made in one day and without measurements," read Malhotra's Instagram post.
