Christian V Siriano


What happens when the Sahara desert, and the Nile River intermingle with high couture; you get Christian V Siriano. You may remember him as the ruling king from Project Runway Season 4. 

I believe that he is the new designer on the block, although packed with of experience, as he has interned with Vivienne Westwood, and Alexander McQueen. 

His clothes take my breath away. Every time I see his clothes I experience this heavenly, tingling feeling, that travels all the way from my toes, till my head, just like what I encounter when I sink my teeth into Charbonnel et Walker chocolates. Now who can beat that? 

Siriano’s clothes are totally "fierce." So, it's a shame he doesn't retail in India. 

He began designing at the young age of 13, which forces me to run to my room, in comfortable Converse, and get a book and a pencil, to try and design clothes. Who knows, maybe somebody, I can be the ‘new designer on the block.’ One hour, and fifteen minutes later, I decide to stick with writing. 

I am saving up to buy one of his immaculately "fierce" dresses. All my money will go in my piggy bank, labelled "Fierce Money."

My favorite piece from his Autumn/Winter collection 2009

Beautiful, thought provoking craftsmanship, and flawless, impeccable designs, with a hint of "fierceness" define Christian V Siriano.
