Biography

Hudson was born and brought up in Ridgeway, South Carolina.[1] His sister was a model. He studied fashion at Bauder College.

In 2013, Hudson won Bravo TV's "Styled to Rock" fashion competition show. The $100,000 prize allowed him to launch his eponymous label the following year.

The designer made his New York Fashion Week debut in September 2020.[2] For his Spring/Summer 2022 collection, he collaborated with a number of veteran models, including Beverly Johnson and Veronica Webb.[3] [4]

He is best known for dressing Vice President Kamala Harris and Michelle Obama during the 2021 US presidential inauguration proceeding,[5] with both outfits making headlines,[6] [7] [8] although it wasn't the first time Michella Obama donned his clothes.[9] He has also dressed a number of celebrities, including Beyoncé, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Tiffany Haddish, and Issa Rae.[10]

His ready-to-wear brand has since been picked up by numerous luxury fashion retailers, including Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus.
