Tadashi Shoji was born in Japan and studied fine art in Tokyo. He moved to the United States and went to university in Los Angles. It was there, as a student he had the opportunity to work with 70's famed costume designer Bill Whitten and designed for flashy musicians such as Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Neil Diamond, The Jacksons, and Earth, Wind, & Fire. He went on to launch a successful ready to wear line in 1982. In 2007, he launched Tadashi Shoji Signature Collection and since then, his high end evening wear graced the red carpet on plenty of stars including Tyra Banks, Emily Rossum and Debra Messing.
