Award-winning CFDA designer Christian Siriano launched his eponymous collection in 2008 following his studies in London under Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen. Known for whimsical and show-stopping design, the collection is shown each season at New York Fashion Week and sold in retailers across the globe. In 2012, the first flagship Christian Siriano store opened in NYC. Then in 2018, "The Curated NYC" opened in Midtown Manhattan, and his most recent retail venture, "The Collective West," has opened in Westport, CT. Siriano’s designs have been worn by current FLOTUS Dr. Jill Biden, former FLOTUS Michelle Obama, Angelina Jolie, Oprah, Zendaya, Ariana Grande, Julianne Moore, Lady Gaga, Tiffany Haddish, Billy Porter, Cardi B, Amy Adams, Scarlett Johansson, Whoopi Goldberg, and Julia Roberts, to name a few. Siriano was named among Time’s 100 Most Influential People for his leading contributions to body diversity on the runway and red carpet. He is also the youngest person to ever appear on Crain’s "40 Under 40" list and a member of Forbes "30 Under 30." Christian has been widely recognized for leading the PPE charge during the COVID-19 pandemic. His atelier shifted entirely from clothing production to mask-making, and to date, he and his team have shipped over one million masks to frontline workers in the New York area. In 2020, Siriano launched his own digital BRAVO talk show, "So Siriano," where he broke down fashion and pop culture with guests including Drew Barrymore, Leslie Jones, Billy Porter, Ashley Graham, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Sia. He also fulfilled a longtime passion by adding interior designer to his list of accomplishments with the debut of Siriano Interiors and a full custom furniture collection. With over a decade of fashion experience, the Siriano design studio continues to celebrate beauty and diversity in an ever-changing fashion industry.
Most recently, the prestigious SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design) Museum of Art presented his first-ever solo retrospective, *Christian Siriano: People Are People*, which ran in Savannah from October 2021 to January 2022 and later moved to Atlanta, where it remained on view through October 9, 2022.
In 2017, he added author to his credits with the release of a photographic retrospective book with Rizzoli titled *Dresses to Dream About*, now in its third printing. Due to high demand, a new version was released in Fall 2021 titled *Christian Siriano: Dresses to Dream About Deluxe Edition*, featuring new images from his growing body of work.
