Fashion designer Michael Costello has an impressive resumé. The talented dressmaker has worked with stars like Jennifer Lopez, Beyoncé, and Alicia Keys, among others, but in December 2019, the designer turned his talents to making 13-year-old J. Lo fan Adalia Rose Pallante’s dreams come true.
Costello had met the fashion-loving teen, who suffers from a rare genetic condition called progeria, a few months previously. The pair chatted about all things fashion, and Costello cooked up a plan: he designed and made two beautiful dresses for Adalia’s birthday in December.
