New York, January 22 (ANI): Little would have Jason
Wu known that by the evening of the Inauguration Day, he would have
become a household name, all thanks to Michelle Obama who chose to don
his dress for an inaugural ball.

The First Lady wrapped herself in Wu''s white
chiffon, one-shoulder gown at the inauguration night, which had
prompted her President-hubby Barack to say: "First of all, how good
looking is my wife?"

And now the 26-year-old, who bagged the Fashion
Group International''s Rising Star Award for women''s ready-to-wear
last year, has his name associated with the historical event.

The once-doll-designer revealed he did not even have
the slightest idea that the mum-of-two, hailed by fashion experts, had
selected his creation for her better half''s big night.

"I found out when the whole world found out," the New York Daily News quoted Wu as telling Us magazine.

"I said, ''It looks white. It looks like mine...'' I
had a box of pizza and I nearly fell over. I was sitting there with my
friends, and they were screaming," Wu added. (ANI)
