Determined to gain as much exposure as he could in the fashion world, Siriano studied at American InterContinental University in London, England, soaking up everything pertaining to high fashion, including making couture dresses and bridal gowns. After high school, Siriano applied to the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, but was rejected. He worked as a styling assistant at a salon in Annapolis, which gave him a chance to show off his clothes at the salon's annual hair shows. He began showing his creative streak in his early teens, when he would make dresses for his older sister, Shannon. Christian Siriano was born in Columbia, MD. Siriano went on to conquer the retail world, selling his collections at both high-end and more mainstream stores, dressing up everyone from celebrities to the everyday woman, and proved that he was undeniably one of the fiercest and most inventive designers of his generation. For displaying a deft hand in manipulating fabrics, colors and patterns, and consistently making show stopping creations - such as a voluminous avant-garde gown coupled with an edgy biker chic outfit deconstructed from several pairs of jeans - he emerged as the clear winner.

With his edgy, daring, and unexpected designs, Christian Siriano carved out his own place in the highly elite world of fashion design.
