    Fashion designer Bach Mai burst into tears following a speech by chef Angie Mar this week, at Mar’s luxe restaurant, Le B.

    Guests at the event to honor Mai included famed ballet dancer Misty Copeland and “Avatar: The Way of Water” star Bailey Bass.

    Mar said she thought about the parallels between haute cuisine and haute couture when arranging the four course meal with OpenTable.

    “It is so much an expression of one’s creativity and one’s soul in its purest form, before we get into the economics and whatever of it all. It is the truest expression of one’s self,” she said. “Bach, you do that so well everyday.”

    Mai’s work has been worn by Venus Williams, Heidi Klum, Lucy Liu and Tessa Thompson. The designer will show at New York Fashion Week in September.

    Mar went on to call the designer — who was born to Vietnamese immigrant parents in Texas before going on to work at Oscar de la Renta, and under John Galliano at Maison Margiela in Paris — “the epitome of the American dream.”

    “Your father is so proud of you,” Mar said.

    Mar’s own grandparents arrived in America from China.
