‘RHODubai’ star Lesa Milan will ‘never forget’ when Beyoncé wore her design
What does it feel like for an aspiring designer when one of the world’s most influential and glamorous women unexpectedly wears their clothes?
Mina Roe founder and “Real Housewives of Dubai” star Lesa Milan tells Page Six exclusively that she will never forget the moment she found out Beyoncé had picked out one of her dresses for the singer’s baby shower in 2017 when she was pregnant with her twins, Rumi and Sir.
“I was home when I found out,” Milan, 33, tells us. “It was late at night for me, and my phone started going off like crazy.
“I got messages from my mom and friends, and I’m like, ‘What’s going on?'” she recalls, “That’s when people were like, ‘Beyoncé is wearing Mina Roe!'”
The designer-turned-reality star says she “will never forget it” — especially since Queen Bey, 40, helped her sales.
“My web developer guy made me aware that the website just crashed,” she remembers, “I just chalked it up to the Beyoncé effect. It was incredible.”
Stars including Gigi Hadid, Khloé Kardashian and Serena Williams have also worn Milan’s pieces.
But she tells us, “I feel [excited] regardless of who wears my stuff. If I see you in the mall rocking Mina Roe, I’m gonna hype you up.”
The former Jamaican beauty pageant queen started her clothing line six years ago with the help of her husband, Richard Hall, an investment banker.
The couple married in 2014 and moved to Dubai, where they are now raising three boys.
“The Real Housewives of Dubai” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
