Born on February 25, 1963, March was originally from Alameda, California, where he worked as a costume designer for the Long-running musical revue, Beach Blanket Babylon. During the fourth season finale of Project Runway, March, who had become popular with avant-garde creations, gained notoriety when he showcased human hair on his designs. In the end, however, he was eliminated from showcasing at Bryant Park during New York Fashion Week. His client list included Madonna, Cirque du Soleil,[1] Prince, Beyoncé Knowles (he constructed the costumes for her I Am... Tour),[1][2] Lady Gaga,[2] Thierry Mugler[1] and Meryl Streep.[3][4] His costuming efforts were recognized with a Drama Desk Award nomination in 2002 for Christmas With the Crawfords.

March resided in New York City and appeared on several episodes of The Real Housewives of New York City as a friend of Sonja Morgan.Шаблон:Citation needed

Accident and death

In June 2017, March fell in his apartment and hit his head. After lying unconscious for four days, he awoke and was able to call 911 and was rushed to the hospital, where he was kept in a medically-induced coma for the next two months.[7] Upon awakening, March discovered that he'd lost functionality in both legs as well as his right hand and arm.[8]

He returned to California with hopes of recovering, and was admitted to a long-term care facility in Stockton, where he continued designing until his death.[9]

On September 5, 2019, March died of a heart attack.[10]
