Christian Siriano Spring 2010 Collection




I was very much impressed by Christian Siriano’s show at the Promenade during Mercedes Benz Fashion week. He is very talented and I have been following him since his debut on Project Runway. He is a young designer with youthful and innovative designs. His Spring 2010 Collection consisted of chic professional wear, party dresses, and exquisite formals. His collection had a lot of Mediterranean influence, and had a “resort” wear appeal. Christian himself noted that it was “a lush take on Mediterranean Travel”. There were lots of ruffles and pleats which provided structure and femininity to the designs. His choice of color palette consisted of khaki, white, coppers, vibrant reds and hues of blue. Fabrics were sheer and delicate, with the use of chiffon, organza and satin. His Collection really focused on the everyday woman, besides a few exceptions for the Red Carpet of course. I love his choice of bringing big hats and bangles as accessories back on the runway. What I thought was also interesting was all the models on the runway were wearing his shoes from his Spring 2010 Payless line, which included gladiator heels, pumps, and booties. Christian is one of the hottest new seasonal designers, and I know we will see more of him in the future!
