Renee Swanberg of Neon Tommy, for example, said that the designer was “the star of the night and crowd favorite” and that he “drew gasps from the audience.”

Michael’s designs were mostly black, but all of them were all shining, shimmering and splendid.

In an interview with NewYorkFashionTimes.com, Michael said that he was “inspired by the culture of the Middle East” and “women who are veiled, who always wear black and who wear henna tattoos on their body.”

Recently, Hollywood stars like Britney Spears and Lady Gaga donned creations from the designer.
