NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Hidden behind cream curtains, designer Christian Siriano transformed the athleisure aisles of the Herald Square Macy\u2019s department store into a cinematic universe as he ushered his New York Fashion Week<\/a> runway show attendees on a journey through film from black-and-white gowns to full Technicolor looks.<\/p>\n

Much like his inspiration for his runway show, the VIP guestlist was straight out of Hollywood. Whoopi Goldberg sat between Oprah and singer Lizzo. Front row celebrities cheered as longtime Siriano muse Coco Rocha opened the catwalk in her classic high powered supermodel strut, wearing a black-and-white stripe and polka dot organza blazer paired with a mini skirt and matching hat.<\/p>\n

For his spring 2026 collection, Siriano said he drew inspiration from actor Marlene Dietrich and how she played with both feminine and masculine styles.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of the collection is black-and-white, but a lot of texture,\u201d he said. \u201cWe have this beautiful plaid sequin, polka dot, stripes … that she\u2019s worn in her kind of repertoire of clothes and then we end in this idea of like, what if all of a sudden the film turned to color?\u201d<\/p>\n

Sticking with the old Hollywood glamour theme, models wore their hair in slick backed buns with one pin curl wave. In a modern twist, some models wore their structured blazers with only tights.<\/p>\n

From tailored blazers to voluminous bubble dresses, Siriano played with patterns and structure throughout his collection.<\/p>\n

Stripes, polka dots and plaid<\/p>\n

Siriano relied on his color palette to transport attendees to the silver screen with black-and-white patterns from polka dots, stripes and plaid at the top of his show before transitioning his looks to Technicolor fabrics including a tiffany blue ball gown and a barbie pink deconstructed tuxedo dress.<\/p>\n

The show was a first for \u201cWhite Lotus\u201d star Natasha Rothwell.<\/a> \u201cI want to spend an insane amount of money,\u201d she said after the show. \u201cFor my first fashion show, it was everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

Attendees came dressed ready for the drama in their tulle and corsets. Singer Adam Lambert arrived in a bronze belted blazer coat with matching oversized bronze sunglass shades. <\/p>\n

On the runway, Siriano dressed models of all sizes, genders and backgrounds in his designs. The designer continues to champion inclusivity while others have pulled back.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just important to have a mix of beautiful people, he said. <\/p>\n

Hats galore<\/p>\n

Siriano accessorized his designs with an array of flat top and oversized whimsical hats. The designer himself has worn his fair share of hats. <\/p>\n

Siriano, who won the design competition \u201cProject Runway\u201d in 2007, recently returned to offer his expertise as a mentor to emerging designers on the newest iteration of the show, which features image architect Law Roach and supermodel Heidi Klum.<\/p>\n

Siriano is also serving as creative director for Macy\u2019s ready-to-wear I.N.C. brand as it marks 40 years. Siriano said by bringing fashion week to Macy\u2019s he hoped to bring customers back to retail shopping. <\/p>\n

Minutes before the start of the runway show, Siriano\u2019s backstage crew were sewing and touching up the final look of the night worn by Rocha, whose showstopping moments have become a signature element of Siriano\u2019s shows. In a black-and-white polka dot billowing gown, Rocha elegantly posed as she sauntered in the off-the-shoulder tulle look to close the catwalk<\/p>\n

\u201cI love my shows to be a little bit more like a performance too,\u201d Siriano said. \u201cI want people to feel like when they walk in the room, they\u2019re in a different world. We work so hard on making all these beautiful things, and I think it\u2019s escapism. We need that so much right now.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Hidden behind cream curtains, designer Christian Siriano transformed the athleisure aisles of the Herald…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":153948,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[57],"tags":[71233,2224,236,2692,39899,94457,88,3976,25378,845,149,29039,94458,2005,1999,14300],"class_list":["post-153947","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-adam-lambert","tag-arts-and-entertainment","tag-celebrities","tag-celebrity","tag-christian-siriano","tag-coco-rocha","tag-entertainment","tag-fashion","tag-heidi-klum","tag-jwd-evergreen","tag-lifestyle","tag-lizzo","tag-natasha-rothwell","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-whoopi-goldberg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153947","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=153947"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153947\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/153948"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=153947"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=153947"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=153947"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
