And <strong>New York Fashion Week</strong> is busting at the seams with them. We&#8217;re talking about <strong>boobs</strong>. Once relegated to the awkward nip slip, now the tits forward march dominates catwalk, and we love the sheer audacity. These are looks that may remind your man how sexy you can look in that see-thru floor length <strong>Yigal Azrouël</strong>, if only he buys it for you. Share your desire to replicate these runway looks at home alone with him, then layer into them when you step out in the big bad sadly non-nudist world. Because while <em>you can&#8217;t see tits on the radio</em>, you can see them on the runway. Happy Valentine&#8217;s Day. <span

He edited the organza sculptures he had become known for. <strong>He even gave up his trademark word fierce.  </strong>Siriano may be evolving as a designer, but who for? <span
id="more-230252"></span>Himself? The CFDA? The fashionistas of the world? Or the women who actually shop?  <strong>Eric Wilson</strong> explores all these channels in this week&#8217;s Thursday Styles section of the NYTimes, where we discover a more mature, more approachable Siriano than we&#8217;ve grown used to knowing. <a

My brand spankin&#8217; new Macbook pro, that I would have died without. Frequented that AOL StyleList blogger&#8217;s haven with it on the regs.</div><div>2. Multiple sparkly <a
href="http://fashionindie.com/win-a-sparkling-valentines-day/" target="_blank"><strong>Milani</strong> </a>nail polish. I did my nails everywhere, painting over layers to change up the colors constantly. There was a rotating slew of colors that cycled through the bag this week.</div><div>3.

/> 5. Several <em>WWD</em>s and <em>Daily Front Row</em>s. I do admit I love reading the Daily.<br
/> 6. Tickets. Many. Some I&#8217;ve disposed of, some made it. Some standing, some seats. None actually with my name on it.<br
/> 7. Various runs of show. Ones that have lingered in my bag: <strong><a
href="http://fashionindie.com/timo-weiland-trips-with-gloria-vanderbilt-and-keith-richards-for-fall-2011/" target="_blank">Timo Weiland</a></strong>, <strong><a

/> 8. ESSENTIAL: Blackberry. Can&#8217;t believe it took me this long to talk about it. Maybe because I&#8217;ve done so much damage on it that it actually just broke. Fashion Week broke my phone&#8230;. now&#8230;. iPhone?<br
/> 9. Because that&#8217;s not an iPhone, that&#8217;s an iPod touch and it&#8217;s been keeping me cat walking myself from place to place.<br
/> 10. Biggie camera. I spent 3 years, that&#8217;s 6 seasons in the PIT with this guy. Not this year. Now I just got to use it on celebs backstage, at presentations and the like.<br
/> 11. WIRES. OMG. My bag was like a radio shack. Heaven forbid I should be without a charge.<br
/> 12. Small purse. Vintage. Used it when I stashed the big lady mama at the after party coat checks.<br
/> 13. Wallet. Duh.<br
/> 14. Deck of cards? The last free gift to remain in this bag. They&#8217;re usually the first to go when I get home.<br
/> 15. Voice recorder, which I ditched for my Blackberry video camera.<br
/> 16. Pashmina &#8211; much lighter than a laptop case. I didn&#8217;t wear it, my MacBook did.<br
/> 17. Vintage Korean flower cardi I wore yesterday. I took it off when the world got mild.<br
/> 18. Urban Zen literature &#8211; got my reikis healed (?) in the AmEx Skybox. Still confused about the process, but I felt great after.<br
/> 19. My handy dandy notebook. All of my show notes are in this little thing.<br
/> 20. Napkin from Timo Weiland&#8217;s after party on which <strong>Paul Steiger</strong> (as in <strong>Walter</strong>&#8216;s son) drew shoes for me. I&#8217;m going to the press sample sale today! <img

One could finally imagine the type of woman &#8212; and she&#8217;s not necessarily a girl &#8212; the diminutive designer is trying to dress.

id="more-184796"></span></p><p>That is not to say that Christian Siriano will soon be dressing dowagers and divorcees. There was still a lot of playfulness and even a mature sensuality to the clothes, particularly in the number of sheer blouses that popped up from time to time.</p><p>The black of those first 24 looks subtly transitioned into a moss and then mauve palette as the collection transitioned from day to night. Known for his fantastical finale gowns, there was also a demonstrated restraint in this area.</p><p>Two very pretty tulle gowns were followed by a smart closer: a silk charcoal chiffon short sleeve blouse paired with a mauve silk organza ruffled skirt. Sexy and sophisticated with a good dose of whimsy, this finale look might have seemed a bit out of place but it was the best kind of surprise &#8212; unexpected, but completely welcomed.</p><p>Much like the show itself.</p><p><strong>Photo</strong>: <em>Style.com</em></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://fashionindie.com/marked-maturity-at-christian-siriano/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Which Fashion Designer Has A Secret Stripper Past?</title><link>http://fashionindie.com/which-fashion-designer-has-a-secret-stripper-past/</link> <comments>http://fashionindie.com/which-fashion-designer-has-a-secret-stripper-past/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 15 Nov 2010 23:29:32 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>McArthur Joseph</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[RANDOM COOL SHIT]]></category> <category><![CDATA[TOTALLY GRATUITOUS]]></category> <category><![CDATA[albert elbaz]]></category> <category><![CDATA[christian siriano]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Karl Lagerfeld]]></category> <category><![CDATA[male designers]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Marc Jacobs]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Strippers]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Tom Ford]]></category><guid

id="more-157267"></span></p><p>An hour before the show, the backstage area was tame compared to the storm of publicity that swept through once the front row took its seat, including my personal fave, Miss <strong>J. Alexander</strong>. Then the lights dimmed and<strong> Sessilee Lopez</strong> stomped out in the first look, a simple brown leather safari jacket and white pant.</p><p>Simplicity was not a central theme, though as graphic prints were slowly introduced and ornate gowns swept the floor. A collective gasp went up in the air when the finale dress came down the runway, a mass of tulle and ruffles whipped up into a fit of ecstasy.</p><p>The Haus of Siriano certainly knows how to do a statement gown.</p><p>The entire collection had an air of the 70s with a very palpable <strong>Halston</strong> influence throughout. The use of white and beige and the flow of the caftan-like dresses in particular come to mind. However, there was a lack of cohesion.</p><p>As Christian tries to grow his brand and be taken seriously as a designer, it&#8217;s understandable that he would try to do everything and appeal to everyone. But a little judicious editing might have resulted in a stronger collection.</p><p>Still, the young designer is coming into his own and this is no doubt his best collection yet.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://fashionindie.com/christian-siriano-ss1/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Christian Siriano Never Met a Mass-Market Deal He Didn&#8217;t Like Sellouts</title><link>http://fashionindie.com/christian-siriano-never-met-a-mass-market-deal-he-didnt-like-sellouts/</link> <comments>http://fashionindie.com/christian-siriano-never-met-a-mass-market-deal-he-didnt-like-sellouts/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 22 Jun 2010 22:49:12 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>The Fashion Web</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[BACKSTAGE]]></category> <category><![CDATA[christian siriano]]></category> <category><![CDATA[gettypic]]></category> <category><![CDATA[highly-amusing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[logical-step]]></category> <category><![CDATA[projectrunway]]></category><guid

id="more-101003"></span></p><p><strong>Who inspired you to work in fashion?</strong><br
/> I don’t think it was ever anyone specific, I just loved fashion, clothing, hair, make-up, style, etc&#8230; and I knew it was a business and industry that I wanted to learn as much as I could.<br
/> <strong><br
/> Best moment of your career so far? </strong><br
/> Wow, I have had a lot of dream moments that have come true. Showing a collection each season is a pretty great moment each season. Going to Victoria Beckham’s house for a private fitting was a nice moment and I think waking up one morning to Rihanna in my dress was also a great moment in my career.</p><p><strong>Can you tell us what projects you are working on next?</strong><br
/> I am really working hard to grow my business and brand. I have already started my next collection, collecting fabrics, new shoe ideas for my collection for Payless and I&#8217;m even working on a fun new bridal collection.</p><p><strong> Tell us about your show &#8220;Having a Moment&#8221;?</strong><br
/> The show is really simple, it’s not planned at all it was just two cameras following me and my team around during fashion week and it&#8217;s just to show what it takes to create a collection and build a business. I think people will learn a lot from this episode and they also will see that there is life after project runway.</p><p><strong>Who would you love to do a collaboration with?</strong></p><p>I would love to do collaborations with a massive clothing retailer and the list is long, but that will have to wait until I grow my other clothing business.</p><p><strong>What is your typical day like?</strong><br
/> It isn&#8217;t always that exciting, I come into my studio and face all the problems of selling a collection to stores all over the world, which always keeps me on my toes, and I will work with my factories for a few hours a day and the team in house. Some days we will be making wedding gowns the others could be for a celeb who knows every day is different that&#8217;s what is so great about this business you never know what will happen.</p><p><strong>What did you learn during your internships that you still use?</strong><br
/> I learned everything I could. I think the most is how to treat your staff and how to never stress over the small things. It’s better to spend the time resolving the problems rather then talking about them all day.</p><p><strong>What sets you apart from the other Project Runway winners?</strong><br
/> I think drive, ambition and aesthetic!</p><p><strong>What advice would you give to young designers?</strong><br
/> I think the best advice to give is to love what you do and to find that one item that you really perfect. Meaning start small and then build your brand from that one item or product.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://fashionindie.com/interview-christian-siriano-designer/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>2</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>VIDEO FIRST LOOK: Christian Siriano on BRAVO&#8217;s &#8216;Having a Moment&#8217;</title><link>http://fashionindie.com/video-first-look-christian-siriano-on-bravos-having-a-moment/</link> <comments>http://fashionindie.com/video-first-look-christian-siriano-on-bravos-having-a-moment/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 02 Apr 2010 20:12:39 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Rebecca Alexander</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[bravo]]></category> <category><![CDATA[christian siriano]]></category> <category><![CDATA[having a moment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[ny fashion week]]></category><guid

A true New York social climber, Adrien gives us the dish and dirt on what&#8217;s hot on the New York Nightlife scene. From the best new DJ&#8217;s to the exclusive invite-only parties he loves to frequent, Adrien gives you the insider look into the world of champagne and flashing lights.</p><p>Enjoy his first column and tell us what you think in our comments section:</p><p>When you are single and fabulous  in New York City, the majority of your going-out happens during the  week: charity parties, art openings, society benefits, etc. all compete  for the precious 7-9PM timeslot Monday through Thursday so that by the  time Friday hits, you’re ready to trade in your Berluti shoes for  a tub of Ben and Jerry’s.</p><p>Last weekend began on a rather  odd note as I had an event to attend on a Saturday evening.  Now  normally my Saturday nights are reserved for “me time”&#8211;instead  of mingling with the masses that make their way over the bridges and  through the tunnels in their Mazda Miatas to party at Marquee, I can  normally be found in my bathrobe flipping through fashion magazines  or watching old episodes of Sex and the City (I actually haven’t yet  figured out whether this is the cause or effect of my perpetual single-status).</p><p>Anyway, back to the party. I ventured out west with my trusted companion, recording artist Alexandra  Alexis, to the Ward-Nasse gallery for a private reception celebrating  the launch of Amanda Dolan’s exhibition.  You could say that  everything followed a similar theme: from Amanda’s Cyndi Lauper-inspired  look (crimped hair and all) to the sweet pink cupcakes and even more  saccharine art featuring an overdose of cute, it was like inhabiting  the mind of a lovesick single girl where shoes and the artist’s dog  were reoccurring images.  Heart attack indeed.</p><p>On Monday night, it was a slightly  different vibe as we headed to the northern-limits of our Manhattan—14<sup>th</sup> street—for yet another art event.  This one was a loft party  and silent auction featuring works inspired by the <a
class="zem_slink" title="The Notorious B.I.G." rel="homepage" href="http://www.atlanticrecords.com/notoriousbig">Notorious BIG</a>.   Though supposed guest Russel Simmons was nowhere to be found, we did  spot a woman who looked exactly like <a
class="zem_slink" title="Victoria Gotti" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Gotti">Victoria Gotti</a>, complete with Malibu  Barbie bleached blond hair and an entirely white ensemble, topped off  with a sun hat and long French manicured nails.</p><p>The next night, since I had  started my week early (and I wasn’t invited to anything exciting)  I ditched the social scene and instead met up with my friend Sara from  Belvedere for a little partying à la français.  Her company sponsors  the members-only French Tuesdays, a gathering for euro-business types,  so <em>nous sommes allés</em> to 1Oak at the very sensible hour of 8PM  for some champagne binging.  We drank like royalty as we hovered  around the Vice President of Moët-Hennesy’s table where <a
class="zem_slink" title="Dom Pérignon" rel="snooth" href="http://www.snooth.com/wines/Dom+P%C3%A9rignon">Dom Perignon</a> and rosé Moët flowed as abundantly as Bernie Madoff’s tears during  his first night in prison and probably cost a sum only his investors  could have once afforded.</p><p>From champagne to vodka, Alexandra  and I were reunited the next day for a night of fun and VIP treatment  at the Absolut Mango party.  Absolut took over the Lotus Event  Space on 26<sup>th</sup> street in Chelsea and transformed it into a  tropical paradise.  As we walked in, we were greeted by the sight  of a woman peeling mangos in front of artificial palm flora.  The  accompanying fauna was to be found deeper inside in the form of the  event’s guests—no notable attendees to report, just free vodka enthusiasts  dressed mostly in post-work attire (a no-no if you want to be photographed).   Alexandra and I took a seat in one of the “reserved” cabanas, observing  the crowd from our rarified perch.  After lounging languorously  and sipping cocktails for some time, we decided we’d had enough of  the tropics and head back into the New York tundra, though not before  leaving with a mango on a stick.</p><p>Thursday was undoubtedly the  highlight of the week: the Vanity Fair/USA Network party for the new  book/exhibition <em>Character Project</em>.  “Characters” were  definitely the theme of the night: as yours truly walked the gigantic  step and repeat (Adrien, look here!  This way!), one photographer  bewilderingly shouted, “Bring back the Devil!” which I thought must  be a reference to the Prada belt which cinched the waist of my vest.   It wasn’t until I had regained my nerves and was halfway into my first  glass of champagne (one of many that evening) that I actually noticed  the devil casually strolling around the exhibition with a detached look  on his horned-face (the underworld must be <em>so</em> much more entertaining).   The man was dressed in a suit, painted entirely red and wore platform  shoes.  I still have not yet figured out the meaning of this.   Among the more celestial guests were <a
class="zem_slink" title="Christian Siriano" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Siriano">Christian Siriano</a>, <a
class="zem_slink" title="Lucy Liu" rel="imdb" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005154/">Lucy Liu</a>, <a
class="zem_slink" title="Mena Suvari" rel="imdb" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002546/">Mena  Suvari</a>, <a
class="zem_slink" title="Rose McGowan" rel="imdb" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000535/">Rose McGowan</a> and others who stopped by for champagne with a  side of culture.</p><p>Hot DJ of the moment Sky Nellor  spun the tracks while the crowd mingled and reveled in their general  fabulousness.  I caught up with Gossip Girls Dreama Walker and  Amanda Setton, whom I’d both met during this past Fashion Week.   Dreama and I traded secrets about our provenance (we’re both too fabulous  to be associated with the states in which we grew up) and she dished  that you shouldn’t expect to see her on the season finale—which  they’re still taping—as she’s missing the filming for her sister’s  wedding.  I made a few more trips around the room, saying my mandatory  hellos and after drinking so much champagne that I almost went up to  speak to the devil, I knew it was time to head home.</p><p>By the end of the week, I was  back with my two most reliable boyfriends: Ben and Jerry.</p><p>Adrien Field</p><p><span

In a recent article, the newspaper described myself and my company as a bunch of wanton renegades set to unhinge the fashion industry with our careless disregard for protocol. These accusations were based off of unfounded facts that a reporter from the publication had garnered from a competing online media company. The result has left us seeking legal council and addressing the issue through interviews with other New York publications and blogs.</p><p>We are sorry for all those who were looking to attend our events or were seeking honest opinions and coverage of New York Fashion Week. We still will be hosting our closing party at Citrine and will be sending invites to members on Thursday, unfortunately there is limited capacity so we will be unable to accommodate all guests.</p><p>For further information on the pending class-action lawsuit or to receive more information on Fashion Indie Media&#8217;s positive influence on the fashion blogging world, please contact me personally at saynt@fashionindie.com.</p><p>Regards,</p><p>Daniel Saynt<br

Now,  I heard through sour grapes on the grapevine that someone,  somewhere was sippin on a haterade martini beverage because Daniel Saynt was gonna crash Siriano&#8217;s showing at Fashion Week.  You people just better thank Anna Wintour&#8217;s wig set that I wasn&#8217;t there to crash the show.  The carnage I would&#8217;ve poured out on those poor little door people with their precious little lists.
