For the catalog store Spiegel, Christian Siriano debuted a limited edition line in February 2011 under the moniker “Christian Siriano for Spiegel.” He was chosen as the first designer for the “Signature Styles” category of designer collaborations in the catalog.
In 2011, Siriano’s line at Payless was enlarged, and this year, it will feature four collections per year, including a more expensive “Gold Collection.” The New York Times pegged his label’s sales in 2012 at about $5 million.
The first Christian Siriano flagship store debuted in September 2012 on Elizabeth Street in Manhattan’s Nolita district. Celebrity guests like Heidi Klum, Allison Williams from the HBO series Girls, stylist Brad Goreski, and DJs The Misshapes attended the store’s opening.
For the Home Shopping Network in January 2013, Siriano debuted a small range of reasonably priced dresses, pieces, and accessories under the brand name “Striking by Christian Siriano.” After being rejected in 2011, Siriano was finally accepted into the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) in June 2013.
