Similarly, streamlined silhouettes were effective when it came to his more experimental fabrics. These included a cerulean blue suit with a corseted waist, several sculptural blazers with flared hems, a midi-skirt suit in leather so shiny Neo would be proud, a floor-length trench with an attached scarf, and a powder blue leather dress with coordinating gloves.
While Siriano will likely never be a designer whose clothes whisper rather than shout-nor should he necessarily be, considering his legion of celebrity fans-his subtler looks were the best. “If they’re spending $200,000 a season, they should be here,” he said. But while those names were notable, half of the guests were Siriano’s loyal customers. The cast walking the runway was equally buzzy Siriano favorites Karen Elson, Candice Huffine, and Coco Rocha opened and closed the show. The designer staged his fall 2022 collection on the concourse level of the Empire State Building tonight, with notable guests as wide-ranging as Drew Barrymore and Susan Sarandon, drag superstars Aquaria and Symone, and Tika the Iggy (an Instagram-famous dog that was fitted in a custom Siriano look that used fall 2022’s dark patent leather). “Without the shows and the glamour and the front row and all my great girls, this business really sucks.” “It’s why I still love fashion,” he said. But Christian Siriano will do his best to convince you that celeb-filled front rows and exuberant catwalks won’t go the way of the dodo.
In a season when many marquee names are missing from the New York Fashion Week calendar, it’s easy to hem and haw over the fate of the runway.
