Meeting Designer Christian Siriano and His New Collection with Lane Bryant

So a couple of Thursdays ago, I was invited to tag along with my friend and colleague to a fashion event where Christian Siriano and Lane Bryant would be celebrating their new collection! Of course I told her I was coming, as someone who has loved Siriano back since Project Runway days. Since then, he’s become a leading figure in the fashion industry, predominately for being a designer that includes all races, sizes, and demographics in his collections. BlackGirlMagic can always be found in his collection, so of course I had to see what it had to offer with Lane Bryant for plus-size ladies as well.img_0519

I have to admit, as someone who doesn’t consider herself “small”, it was really encouraging to hear of a designer partnering with a brand to bring beautiful and special collective clothing to women who are…dare we say…a little thicker than a snicker. Now, I’m not technically considered “plus-size” either, but it just felt encouraging to know someone wasn’t just looking out for the size 2 girl.img_0522

On styling actress Leslie Jones and the huge controversy around it:

Of course I had to see a dress in action, and chile, did she work it! I’m definitely a fan.
