60 Minutes<\/strong> had a great interview with Anna Sui<\/strong> on Sunday. Sui<\/strong>, who is single and jokes that she’s too busy to get married, is part of an extended Chinese family that comes out in force for her New York fashion shows.<\/p>\n

Today she’s proud to be part of a small group of Chinese-American designers that now includes Vera Wang, famous for her wedding gowns, and Jason Wu, who created Michelle Obama’s inaugural gown.<\/strong> But as a kid, Sui<\/strong> never doubted she could go all the way \u2026<\/p>\n

"At the point when I wanted to become a designer, I didn’t think about, ‘Oh, but I’m a woman,’ just like didn’t think about like, well, ‘I’m Chinese’ or that "I’m in Michigan.’ You know, none of those things were obstacles to me. I just had this idea that this is what I had to do."<\/p>\n

Still, Sui<\/strong> says that when she first told her immigrant mom and dad about her interest in a fashion career, they said, "Why do you want to be a dress maker when you could be a doctor?”<\/p>\n

We’ll post video as soon as we can.<\/p>\n
