Jason Wu (Chinese: 吳季剛; pinyin: Wú Jìgāng; born September 27, 1982) is a Canadian artist and fashion designer based in New York City.

Jason Wu was born in Yunlin, Taiwan and emigrated to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada at age nine.

[10] From 2013 to 2018, Wu served as the art director of German fashion house Hugo Boss overseeing the entire womenswear range.

[13] Michelle Obama wore a Miss Wu green shift in 2012 — before it hit the shelves — while on the campaign trail for reelection.

By 2024, the brand also signed a licensing and distribution deal with Concept One Accessories for an "aspirational" collection of handbags and small leather goods; it had been handling the production of its bags in-house before.

Obama bought four dresses from Wu early in the year, wearing one of them for a segment on Barbara Walters Special shortly before the November 2008 election, prompting many in the media to consider her his "career-launcher".

[20] On April 2, 2009, Obama paired a "traditional looking" teal Wu dress with a blue-patterned cardigan designed by Junya Watanabe on her visit to the Royal Opera House.
