Since launching his label in 2008 after studying in London under Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen, Siriano has become a prominent force in fashion. He has dressed international figures including Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, Julia Roberts and Michelle Obama, and recently marked the 15th anniversary of his brand.
“It’s a wonderful opportunity to be part of Cunard’s iconic Transatlantic Fashion Week and I am excited to headline next year’s voyage,” Siriano said. “What a unique way to showcase my designs that celebrate both the heritage of fashion as well as its future. I can’t wait to show guests on board a fabulous and once-in-a-lifetime experience!”

During the crossing, Siriano will present archival highlights in an exclusive runway show held in the Queens Room. His headline presentation will be followed by additional runway shows from other designers to be announced. Siriano will also appear for an intimate Q&A in the Royal Court Theatre and hold book signings across the seven-night voyage.
The 2025 event will mark the fifth Transatlantic Fashion Week since the series began in 2016. Previous headliners have included Dame Zandra Rhodes, Julien Macdonald, Virginia Bates and Stephen Jones OBE.
“Christian Siriano is a true visionary, and we are delighted to have him lead our 2025 Transatlantic Fashion Week. His bold old-school glamour mirrors Cunard’s own blend of timeless elegance and modern luxury,” said Katie McAlister, president of Cunard. “Our Fashion Week voyages have become must-attend events, attracting celebrated designers from around the world, and there’s no better venue for such an occasion than Queen Mary 2 — the world’s most glamorous ocean liner.”
