Manish Malhotra, Bollywood’s favourite designer turns 47 today! Starting of as a costume designer, he literally changed the way the industry dresses onscreen by banishing those dowdy dresses and frills that spilled over from the 80’s into the 90’s. Known for his spectacular runway shows, it was he who introduced the concept of showstoppers. On the occasion of his birthday I’ve decided to round up his all time top 5 showstoppers… enjoy!

And we just have to give an honorable mention to our own MissMalini, who walked the ramp for Anmol in a Manish Malhotra creation at India International Jewelry Week this August.
