Feb. 12, 2012 : Christian Siriano, mostly known for winning Project Runway with his crazy gothic designs, subdued his necessary statement factor and in result, came out with a lovely, sophisticated and edgy collection.

According to style.com, Siriano’s inspiration was the 1933 film, “The Vampire Bat,” but the beauty in the collection came from Fay Wray, who “is just so glamorous and stunning in the whole movie.”

Siriano’s collection always leaves viewers with the anticipation of how he will innovatively use his favorite color, black, in new and inspiring ways. Once again, Siriano successfully transformed the “LBD,” to a statement wearing dress.

Here are my three favorite LBD’s from the collection

How did you like Siriano’s toned-down, less provocative collection?
