Christian Siriano and Bombay Sapphire gin have joined forces to create an extraordinary cocktail couture collection. The collaboration was sparked by Siriano’s fascination with Bombay Sapphire gin cocktails, resulting in the breathtaking French 75-inspired haute couture gown. This stunning piece made its grand debut at the Spring/Summer 2024 NYFW show, held at The Pierre Hotel in New York City. The gown perfectly captured the essence of the French 75 cocktail, with its effervescent bubbles, tangy lemon juice, and vibrant gin undertones. It was meticulously crafted, incorporating elements that echoed the elegance of champagne and paying homage to the iconic blue-tinged bottle of Bombay Sapphire.
However, the collaboration didn’t stop at the runway. Siriano has also created a limited-edition capsule collection, drawing inspiration from three beloved gin cocktails: the Bombay Sapphire Gin & Tonic, Martini, and Collins. This highly anticipated collection is set to launch just in time for the holiday season and will be available on ChristianSiriano.com. Each piece in the collection reflects the unique flavor profiles and aesthetics of these iconic cocktails.
In discussing his creative process, Siriano expressed his excitement for pushing the boundaries of garment construction. Through the ‘Saw This, Made This’ campaign with Bombay Sapphire, he was able to transform classic cocktail culture into high fashion. Siriano hopes that his exploration of creative boundaries and unconventional sources of inspiration, such as the silhouette of a French 75 cocktail, will inspire others to embark on their own imaginative journeys.
This collaboration between Bombay Sapphire and Siriano builds upon the success of last year’s ‘Saw This, Made This’ campaign, led by renowned film director Baz Luhrmann. The campaign’s goal is to encourage individuals to seek creative inspiration in their surroundings. By partnering with Siriano, Bombay Sapphire has discovered a remarkable new avenue for creative inspiration within the fashion industry. Jaime Keller, the brand director of Bombay Sapphire, expressed their delight in working with Christian Siriano and witnessing the boundless power of imagination. They believe that visual cues have the potential to transform into beautiful and tangible creations. Through this partnership, they aim to inspire audiences to tap into their own creativity and explore the abundant inspiration that lies within their everyday lives.
