MY PROM MAKEOVER: Fashion Week : Off to a good start

Day One was Great

Heidi Klum promised it and Project Runway's Christian Siriano gave it. Color and fantasy.Christian Siriano (born November 18, 1985) is an American fashion designer and the winner of the fourth season of American reality show Project Runway. Siriano is the show's youngest winner. What we really like about Christian is this:

He began designing clothes at age thirteen, while working as a hair washer and styling assistant at Bubbles Salon in Annapolis, and eventually began sewing clothes for the salon's annual hair shows! Siriano attended high school at the Baltimore School for the Arts, but spent his freshman year at Broadneck Senior High School. The school allowed Siriano to choose fashion design as his course of study.

Ever been turned down?

After being rejected by the Fashion Institute of Technology, Siriano chose to study abroad at American InterContinental University in London, England. Following the recommendation of a teacher during his senior year, he began interning at Vivienne Westwood, and later, at Alexander McQueen, whom Siriano has stated is his favorite designer. Siriano moved to New York City after graduating from college.
So it should come as no surprise that the PR season 4 winner won a spot to show a twelve-piece final collection at New York Fashion Week. Here are our favorite formal designs by Chrisian Siriano.
