Mugler is known for dressing some of our favorite fashion girls, including creating the costumes for Beyoncé’s 2009 I Am… World Tour as well as stylish looks for Cardi B, Rihanna, Normani, and more.And most recently, his two-toned, curve-hugging leggings have had our favorite girls in a chokehold as they’ve been spotted on beauties like Joie Chavis and Shantel Jackson who always seems to wear the look to perfection.
