There is also a look inspired by Siriano's Resort collection for 2018.
Siriano has received praise for his designs, and has been willing to dress actresses and celebrities of various body types, including former First Lady Michelle Obama, Baltimore native Jada Pinkett Smith, and comedienne and actress Leslie Jones, who wore his dresses for both the 2017 Emmys and at her premiere for the reboot of "Ghostbusters."
