NY Fashion Week : Christian Siriano SS 2010

Being the fabulous  and well informed fashionistas that you are, I don’t have to tell you that we’re in the midst of one of the best times of the year! My dears, it’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week! Anyone who is anyone in the industry (and some of our resident bloggers too!) are basking in the glow of the wonderful Spring and Summer 2010 collections.

While we can’t physically be there mingling with the designers, celebs, taking in all the fashions and taking home amazing swag bags, we have the wonderful world wide web and all the pretty clothes, shoes and accessories are merely a click away!

I browsed through a few of the designer collections that were shown the past three days and the clothes, shoes and accessories are just to die for.  One collection in particular caught my eye straight away and I was surprised to find out it was by Project Runway winner, Christian Siriano.  If you’re a fan of the show, you’ll know this “fierce” designer is truly a talented individual and his Spring/Summer RTW line shows it.

There are a few dresses that were just stunning in design, colour and style…

This dress is so perfect for a spring or summer dinner party or even as something one would wear to a wedding. The blue is fantastic and the hat adds a bit of a whimsical touch.

This dress is where Christian incorporated the neutral tones in the beginning of his collection and meshed it with variations of red. It’s one of those dresses I picture a Hollywood starlet wearing to the Oscars or other awards shows. I’m loving the full skirt and tiers of light and airy tulle!

Here’s another statement dress, this time in deeper shades of reds, burgundy with hints of copper and gold.  The simplicity of the strapless top balances out the flounce and intricate folds and large ruffles of the skirt.

And lastly, my favourite gown from his collection…

Isn’t it breath-taking? It reminds me of ocean waves crashing along the shore. I love all the different shades of teal and blues mixed with the black and white – wow.  I love how the top of the dress with the asymmetrical design of the one-shoulder is sleek and sophisticated, while the bottom of the skirt is voluminous and fun.

Christian Siriano’s collection started off with a neutral tone of creams, ivory and beige but then came a cool splash of iridescent light and deeper blues. At the end he capped it off with rich reds, it was such a gorgeous colour palette and I adored all of it!
