For Anne Hathaway’s 2026 Met Gala custom Collection look, Michael tapped fellow FIT alum, longtime friend, and renowned artist Peter McGough to create a one-of-a-kind painting on the sculptural black gown.
Hand-painted over the course of 60 hours, the gown features motifs inspired by John Keats’ poem “Ode on a Grecian Urn.”

Take a peek into Daniel’s day in the Hutch offices and showroom on Fashion Avenue, located in the center of the Garment District—just a few blocks from FIT.
After gaining technical mastery of principles he still uses today, Daniel founded his label in 2010. Since then, Hutch has become a beloved brand at retailers nationwide—you can find Hutch at Anthropologie, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and on the brand’s website.
The brand’s effortlessly feminine, size-inclusive designs all start as sketches by Daniel himself, who believes that every woman deserves an “I feel pretty” moment. With bold colors and prints, Daniel’s infectious positivity shines through the collections of dresses, swimwear, and bridal ensembles that emphasize the individuality and spirit of the women wearing it.
