Michelle Yeoh recently found herself at the center of a viral sensation after sharing an article on her Instagram story about Tracy Kauffman-Wood, a mother who made headlines by boldly asking to wear Yeoh’s dress from the SAG Awards to her daughter’s wedding. The gown, an exquisite creation by the fashion house Armani Privé, mesmerized Kauffman-Wood. Her unexpected ask became an internet sensation and captured the hearts of people around the world. Yeoh, who gifted the dress to the museum, said she was flattered and told how the dress came to exist.
The saga started when Tracy Kauffman-Wood’s daughter, Amity Wood, tweeted this screenshot. It included the viral Facebook post her mom sent to International Movie Star Michelle Yeoh. The message read, “Hello, I messaged you before to ask you about the dress you wore to the SAG awards.” Kauffman-Wood’s request went viral almost immediately as she offered the wedding invitation to the actress with a #BlackHercules hashtag.
