“Christian Siriano: People are People,” the new exhibit at the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, is still going strong.
“It’s been great,” says Brooks chief revenue officer Jeff Rhodin. “In the first week we had more than 2,500 people.” The preview party was mind-blowing. More than 900 people attended the event honoring the American fashion designer on March 21st, the night before the exhibit opened to the public.
Thirty-six Siriano creations, including over-the-top gowns in over-the-top colors and shapes on mannequins of different sizes, are featured in the exhibit. As the news release from Brooks states, “Since launching his fashion house in New York in 2008, Siriano has become beloved for statement-making looks. … From glamorous gowns to gender-defying showstoppers, Siriano’s creations have been … worn by the world’s biggest stars, top models, pop icons, legendary divas, LGBTQIA2+ heroes, first ladies, and more.”
So, anybody who wants to get their mind blown has until August 4th to view the exhibit of fashions worn by Taylor Swift, Michelle Obama, Lady Gaga, and others.
