Christian Siriano: People Are People runs now through August 4, 2024, at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art featuring 35 pieces.
This new exhibit gives guests a close-up look at high-fashion pieces from award-winning designer Christian Siriano that reflects his celebration of “self-expression for every body at every age.”
“He has redefined what fashion can do with regard to celebrating the full spectrum of gender, body types, and identities, and the museum is thrilled to bring his creative genius to Memphis,” exhibition site curator Dr. Patricia Lee Daigle said in a release.
Apart from his thriving fashion empire, Christian has been the host and mentor for Bravo’s hit series “Project Runway."
The museum also offers "Atelier to Runway," an interactive gallery to complement the exhibition, allowing visitors to engage with the fashion design process and display their own designs or ready-to-wear looks on a runway.
The Brooks Museum said additional free educational and public programs will accompany the exhibition throughout its run.
Christian Siriano: People Are People is organized by the SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion + Film and sponsored by archimania and Grinder Taber Grinder. All exhibitions at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art are underwritten by the MBMA Exhibition Fund.
