People Are People honors famed American designer Christian Siriano’s electrifying contributions to fashion. Drawn from his extensive archive, the exhibition features bold creations from Siriano’s decade-plus career that celebrate self-expression for every body at every age. Since launching his fashion house in New York in 2008, Siriano has become beloved for statement-making looks, combining beautiful craftsmanship with a unique point of view that has endeared him to the fashion industry, celebrities, and the public alike. From glamorous gowns to gender-defying showstoppers, Siriano’s creations have been the focus of unforgettable Fashion Weeks and red-carpet moments, and worn by the world’s biggest stars, top models, pop icons, legendary divas, LGBTQIA2+ heroes, first ladies, and more. Garments worn by Michelle Obama, Janelle Monae, Celine Dion, Lady Gaga, Lizzo, Billy Porter, Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, and many others will be featured.
'Christian Siriano: People Are People' is organized by the SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion + Film.
The exhibition is complemented by the interactive gallery, Atelier to Runway, where visitors can explore fashion design from sketching to draping and strut their own creations or ready-to-wear looks on the runway.
