The Collection
Christian Siriano has grown up. I really liked the way he put together an eye popping show using organza and chiffon to create clothing that breathes and looks very comfortable. The color palette went from beige to blue, then an array of orange to red. There was even a full body jump suit with blue blotches. The shoes where from his new line for Payless. The trains in the final looks were over the top and stunning. He gave some of the models floppy hats that are emerging as a trend.
Note: I just read the other coverage of this show, we've been saying he's been growing up for a while. So let's say he's matured and come into his own away from the Project Runway haze.
The Vibe
Throngs of people are waiting to get in and there's excitement in the air, editors are getting interviewed on the runway. I'm being shooed off it. It's a fun, young and sophisticated feel. Marc Jacobs was swarmed by cameras, I couldn't even see him.
Celebs in Attendance
Tim Gunn and Nina Garcia, Tori Spelling, Eva Mendes, Anmeri, Veronica Webb, Alessandra Ambrosio and Kelly Rowland. Bill Cunningham was here snapping shots. I said I love his work. he stared at me, judging my look. I bowed away and headed to my seat, he headed next to Fern Mallis.
