NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Hello. I die for this coat. (The fur here, like all the fur in this show, is faux.)
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This looks a bit like Christian got bored of adding fur to this; having said that, if you're thinking you've seen a lot of this rust color, you are correct. It is back.

Also happening right now are wide-legged pants. I kind of like a wide-legged pant, except as a short person with short legs, it's hard to find a pair that don't make me look like I'm standing in a ditch.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This coat is cozy.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Did I have a bodysuit that looked just like this back in 1993? I did. But I wore it with short overalls.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This is perfect for when one of your arms is always much, much colder than the other one.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Remember when I mentioned that velvet is back? Velvet is really, really back.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Christian has always been good about casting diverse models, and for the last few seasons, he's also cast plus size models and so-called "straight size" models in the same show with no fanfare. I will never understand why other designers act like this is an impossibilty, but you basically never see it anywhere is. Doesn't it make sense for your show to reflect the world, albeit a very beautiful version thereof? (My hope is that he'll also start casting older women as well.)

I don't love these boots, but this dress is super cute, and I'm sure it'll make an appearance on a Hailee Steinfeld or a Yara Shahidi.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This feels a bit like Bridesmaids By Siriano.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Somewhere, Sarah Hyland is marking this for the Emmys.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This zipper reminds me of an autopsy, which is...not ideal.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I should not like this, but I do. Funny how that works.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I think this is pants. I also think it would be great if you work as a depressed magician who still wants to have a little pizzazz.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
It's hard to tell in this picture, but these are separates: a bustier, pants, and a mesh turtleneck. Please don't make me ever type "mesh turtleneck" again.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I'd actually like this without the shrug. It feels very early-90s Madonna, which is one of my favorites of the Madonnas.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Hah! This is whimsical. I used to work at a store that sold a lot of notions, and we literally used to pin tassels to a black wall. It looked just like this. I never thought to wear it?
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This fabric is great. Would this be better if the X bit of the straps was axed?
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Also pants. Christian is really into trousers right now.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I also wish these sleeves were not puffed, but as it is, this feels VERY MUCH like an outtake from Bonfire of the Vanities.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Someone send this to Evan Rachel Wood!
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
A very simple gown. For a moment, I thought those were INSANE CUFFS, but it's actually a coat trailing off her body.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This is very good and quite wearable.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I actually love this. I KNOW. What can I say? I contain multitudes.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I also like this and hope someone has the stones to wear it on a red carpet.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
For when you wake up feeling like you're in the mood to dress like a super fancy fish.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
SHINY!
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Oh, okay. We're in the shiny section of this show. (I'm all about the shiny section of anything.)
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Yes, this is a jumpsuit.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Yes, this is over the top.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This color is great, but mostly I want those shoes.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I stand strong against armpit vents. (But continue to dig this color.)
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Anne Shirley would be in paradise this season. So many sleeves!
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This is cute.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Someone will for sure wear this.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
...I feel less confident about this one.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Juliette Lewis was at this show and I quite sincerely hope she wears this.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
DITTO.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Someone is gonna show a LOT of leg in this eventually.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Oooh, pass. Pass. Pass on this one.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This is really pretty. Constance Wu could rock this.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
I don't want this. Please don't make me take this.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
However...I sort of embrace the full-grown version. Sans visible white panties, of course.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
And Christian's tendency for Gown Bombast finally kicks in! This is not...my favorite.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This is very pretty, though, and for sure someone is going to wear it to something. (That's the kind of piercing analysis you expect here, right? "Someone" will wear clothes to "something.")
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
In which Christian gives Gucci a shout-out?
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Despite the sheer aspects of this, it's very pretty.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
"This is a lot of look," Tim Gunn murmurs to himself over a nice cup of coffee.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This is bonkers, but in a great way.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
And this is VERY pretty. I saw some other shots of this on Instagram -- we didn't go to Fashion Week this season, so I can't report from the field this time -- and it looked very cool in motion. I wish Christian would do a show in Los Angeles, honestly. So many of his celeb clients live here. Tom Ford's doing it!
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
Yeah, I love that Depeche Mode song, too.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
This is going to be perfect for that 80s movie I want Christian to costume.
NYFW: Christian Siriano Autumn/Winter 2017
But we're ending on a high note. I love this. Someone call this in for the Oscars!
