Christian Siriano knows the future of fashion is inclusive, diverse, and, of course, glamourous. The return of red carpets—and Project Runway—proves he's always ahead of the curve.
“That was always my goal, to have all these different types of people and cultures and shapes and sizes,” the 35-year-old says while pointing out that his inclusive approach to fashion is part of his ethos. “I was doing that from day one. People just didn’t realize until later. They’re like, ‘Wow, you have so many Black models on the runway.’ I’m like, ‘No, I always have. It’s not a new thing.
“I think the big brands always will survive in their world because it just is what it is. But I do think any independent company that hasn’t been around for 50–100 years, has to pivot and figure it out. I think we’re all finding our daily struggles,” he says. From face masks to loungewear and comfy athleisure, 2020 didn’t have time for glamour.
