Michelle’s Ball Dress Designer Better Known for His Work with Trannies
Thursday, January 22nd, 2009LOL-tastic!
Michelle Obama’s dress on inauguration night did not go over well with most of you.
The designer, Jason Wu — who didn’t even know Michelle would be wearing his design until he stepped out in it! — was previously an unknown in the fashion industry. In fact, his most notable achievement prior to this had been designing clothing for a line of high-end dolls in the image of celebrity tranny RuPaul. Sounds more like a Project Runway challenge than a career!
“I really didn’t know she’d be wearing it until I saw her on TV last night, just like everyone else,” he told Teen Vogue.
“I dropped everything when she walked out — and, yes, I did cry a little bit.
“It’s an incredible moment for me.”
Wu was perhaps best known for creating a range of RuPaul dolls for top-end retailer Integrity Toys, with some of his creations selling for up to $300.
Just goes to show that your life can change completely overnight!
Jason is the hottest thing in the fashion world right now!
