Fashion designer and TV host Christian Siriano is no stranger to celebrity. The Annapolis native dressed Oscar-winning actors Halle Berry and Whoopi Goldberg for this year’s Academy Awards.
He co-hosted the most recent season of “Project Runway” with style icon and model Heidi Klum. And he has a boatload of famous fashion fans, including Cardi B., Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey and even Zendaya.
But last week, Siriano stitched up his Hollywood bonafides with the sartorial patronage of another global megastar.
Siriano revealed on social media that the superstar entertainer recently wore a stylish piece from his new collection. “Well when @Beyonce is one of the first to wear the new collection I guess we did something right! So chic in a Siriano black corseted velvet gown,” he wrote.
Fashion insiders identified the gown as “Look 53” from the designer’s Spring/Summer 2026 lineup. And while the look won’t break your soul, it may break the bank: A quick search of Siriano’s collection shows the dress retails for just under $6,000.
The occasion for Beyoncé’s look was a lavish party for the 100th birthday of hip-hop mogul Jay-Z’s grandmother, Hattie White. The couple attended the black-tie event in New York City last week, which included a performance by Stevie Wonder, according to reports of the private celebration.
No need to feel left out. With a required 6 to 8-week pre-order, Siriano’s glam gown should arrive just in time for your own New Year’s Eve fete.
