The internet couldn't keep calm.

Another comment read, "So beautiful."
Manish Malhotra gave a detailed description of his creation. An excerpt from his post read,
"This look reimagines the Indian sherwani—rooted in heritage menswear—through an androgynous couture lens. The custom-made sherwani becomes a canvas where structure meets softness: tailoring that asserts power yet carries modern sensuality.
"The 10-inch diamond-embroidered cuffs transform the sleeve into a statement of modern regalia—part armour, part adornment. They extend the gesture of 'wearing your heart on your sleeve,' amplifying both strength and vulnerability in equal measure."
Here's a BTS video where the queen was getting ready for the ramp.
