Phuong My said the crew of Beyoncé requested her to design a costume for the award ceremony.

"They asked me to design both the costume and accessories in just one week," she said.

Phuong My caught the eye of international celebrities after she presented her Fall Winter 2019 collection at New York Fashion Week in February and showcased a wedding dress collection in April.

She was one of only two Vietnamese designers to participate in New York Fashion Week 2019 in February, presenting her collection named Sayonara (Goodbye). She has also worked on production and styling projects for key fashion magazines such as Elle, Harper's Bazaar and Vogue.
