Designer Christian Siriano will headline the voyage with his
first-ever runway show at sea, presenting highlights from his
celebrated 16-year archive in the ship's Queens Room. The TIME100
honoree, whose custom designs have been exhibited in museums around
the world and worn by everyone from Oprah to
Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie, Halle
Berry, Zendaya, Ariana
Grande, Billy Porter, Lady
Gaga, and Michelle Obama, will debut
a one-of-a-kind nautical-themed dress, designed exclusively for
Cunard and displayed throughout the voyage. Fashion lovers will
also enjoy an intimate Q&A with Siriano in the Royal Court
Theatre and have the opportunity to meet him during book
signings.
"I am honored to headline the return of Transatlantic Fashion
Week and partner with a brand that has such a longstanding history
with the fashion industry and its icons," said Siriano. "The new
custom piece I'll be unveiling on board draws inspiration from the
sea and celebrates classic glamour synonymous with Cunard."
Fashion and costume design legend Bob Mackie, whose
creations have been worn by stars like Cher, Diana
Ross, Miley Cyrus and Madonna, will display pieces
specially selected from his personal archive onboard the voyage.
This includes celebrity gowns and pieces from his couture
runway collections. Some Bob Mackie
sketches will also be up for auction. In addition, guests will
be treated to a special screening of his new documentary
"Bob Mackie: Naked Illusion," which
will be followed by a live Q&A with the designer himself.
"I've always believed fashion should be fabulous and a
bit fearless, and a ship as glamorous as Queen Mary 2 offers the perfect
setting to showcase these designs and connect with fellow
fashion lovers," said Bob
Mackie.
Accompanying Siriano and Mackie is supermodel, advocate, and
entrepreneur Coco Rocha, offering guests unique insight into her
20-year career in the fashion industry. Having graced over 100
magazine covers, she's been shot by the world's top photographers
