He was catapulted into the spotlight when America's First Lady, Michelle Obama, wore one of his gowns to presidential inauguration ceremony in 2009. Since then, Wu's label has gone from strength to strength, quickly establishing him as a designer to make a date with every New York Fashion Week.
Having added the likes of Hollywood starlets Emma Stone, Michelle Williams, January Jones to his celebrity dressing portfolio, there is no stopping the Taiwanese-born designer.
Wu let the cameras capture him adding the finishing touches to his newest collection, for Resort 2013.
"I was inspired by two things: the idea of a man made nature mixed with the elegance of 60s couture shapes. I used Swarovski Elements to create "mechanical" bugs that also bring to mind 60s fine jewellery," he explains.
Every detail counts for Wu, and he believes that his collections should tell a story.
Oh, and as you can see, he's quite a dab hand with a needle - surprisingly, not all designers are.
