The color palette was decidedly Mediterranean – cool sea blues mixed with pearly aquas, neutral khakis,
Baltimore Orioles Hats, and firey volcanic shades of red, all offset by crisp white. If you’ve ever seen photos of Santorini,
Cheap Batman Hats, for example, you can see where his color influences came from.
CF Runway Review:
A quick back story before we get to the collection: When I received my invite to Christian’s Spring 2010 runway show, I was ecstatic – he’s one of my favorite Project Runway designers EVER, and I’ve been following his line since it debuted. I can’t tell you how excited I was to be invited,
San Francisco Giants Hats sale! Unfortunately, I then realized I couldn’t attend – his show was set to begin only an hour after my flight touched down in New York – if you know NYC traffic,
Cheap Philadelphia Phillies Hats, you know how impossible it would have been to make it from JFK in only an hour. SO upsetting!

Want to know what all the buzz is about? Here are some of my favorite looks from Christian’s Spring 2010 RTW collection, followed by a review of the collection and a breakdown of the trends and themes present.
What do you think?
As for the pieces, in typical spring fashion,
Cheap Mulberry Shoulder Bags, dresses were the basis of the collection – from pretty cocktail numbers adorned with Christian’s signature pleating, to long, draped statement gowns ideal for the red carpet. Accessories included big, floppy, wide-brimmed hats, chunky silver cuffs,

If there was a doubt in anyone’s mind about Christian’s staying power after Project Runway, this collection surely erased it. Far more than just a follow-up from a former reality show contestant, Christian’s Spring 2010 collection proved his indisputable talent as a designer, and will surely keep his momentum and buzz going into next season and beyond. He’s surely one to keep any eye on – I know I’m a fan,
Jordan Hats!
Fashion Cliff-Notes:
Sadly, I had to watch Christian’s runway show online,
cheap Cincinnati Reds Hats, instead of from inside the tents. I was even more bummed to miss it when I saw the photos – his collection really delivered and is one that everyone seems to be talking about,
Gianmarco Lorenzi slae! It’s okay,
Wholesale Kansas City Royals Hats, though – hopefully I’ll get to see his stuff in-person next season.
According to the Associated Press, the collection was essentially a “lush take on Mediterranean travel”, which, while perhaps a more appropriate theme for resort collections, seemed to work splendidly for spring.
Now I want to hear your thoughts,
Famous stars Hats! Do you love Christian as much as I do? What about this collection – did you think it was fierce? Which look was your favorite? Let us know by leaving a comment here!
Footwear was also a major focus – Christian’s models were all wearing shoes from his Spring 2010 Payless line,
wholesale Bape Hats, including fierce metallic gladiator heels, satin platform pumps, and printed ankle booties, all finished with a curved, horn-like heel. Who knows if we’ll see the shoes in any actual Payless stores (you know how that goes), but here’s hoping the designs available in stores will at least be similar!
Christian Siriano’s Spring 2010 collection was an extremely wearable group of pretty cocktail dresses, well-cut separates, with the occasional high-end gown thrown into the mix. With the right combination of over-the-top and retail-ready looks, it’s a collection you’d expect from a seasoned designer,
cheap St. Louis Cardinals Hats, not someone showing at Bryant Park for only his third time!
