“I've been really into a light, bright playfulness that's been missing. I looked at these '60s and '70s photos of Jackie O. She went to Capri every summer, but she was always a little more playful, a little more colorful, than she was in 'normal' life. And it was exciting to see her a little bit "off duty." The colors are from awning stripe umbrellas, from a really clear ocean, and from ripe citrus.” LittlesLightBitsClearMissingColorDutyNormalOceanSummerLittle BitExcitingRipeColorfulNormal LifeUmbrellaJackieStripesPlayfulnessCitrusCapriJackie O Author:Christian Siriano

“And even with traditional fashion models, where it's their job to be a certain size and a certain proportion, you have to make adjustments once you see your clothes on a real live person. Now imagine doing that with more sizes, more proportions. You really have to play with every piece. So timing is a big part of it.
