Christian Siriano at New York Fashion Week

Most of us remember his as the ever so loud, little brat on Fashion Runway who designed the most edgy outfits that show has seen.



Christian began designing at thirteen and attended the Baltimore School for the Arts and the American Intercontinental University in London, where he interned with punk legend Vivienne Westwood, and with Alexander McQueen. Upon returning to the United States and moving to New York City, Christian's break came when he earned a spot on season four of Bravo's hit program Project Runway. He became the show's youngest winner, fan favorite, and a rising star in the fashion industry with his clothing sold in Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, and stores around the world.
