Christian Siriano: Hillary Clinton Needs To Be In Gowns And Sequins (VIDEO)

Former Project Runway winner Christian Siriano talked fashion fierceness with Washington Life at the DC area's Westfield Montgomery Mall on Monday. He sang the praises of Hillary's pantsuits, but dished out some style advice for the secretary, saying, "Hillary for evening, we could change. Because she's great during the day...I love her little powersuit moment going on, but for evening, let's vamp her up...she needs to be in some gowns and some sequins." He also shared some tips from his upcoming book and explained just how excited he is about jackets, coats and layering.

I think it's a great idea: Christian Siriano drapes Hillary's ample figure in sequins and we watch train wrecks for TWO egotistical wannabes. But fair warning, the runway footage may start a bidding war among Bravo, Lifetime and Comedy Central.

"Ample figure"?

You want MO in on this?

Yes Hillary could step it up a bit in the evenings; she shouldn’t be afraid of looking pretty. Hillary used to be beautiful as First Lady, however, now she seems to play her attractiveness down. Hillary’s got the job and people certainly take her seriously so I agree with Christian Siriano that she should punch it up in the evenings; Bill might like it.

He might have a point about the evenings... LOL.

maybe he doesn't know what HRC's job is.

She's a married professional not in her twenties. She doesn't need to "vamp it up."

[w0rld0fw0rcraft]

gowns and sequins for hrc!?!?! no way-power business suits all the way. she's the archetype and should dress the part.

[weatherwaxx]

Yeah, the Secretary of State really needs some cable show designer telling her what to do. Not.

[2Bfair]

so true, she's got the smile -and-greet firstolady thing down, land is smart enough to steer clear of real policy, diplomacy and fashion.

[wreckdiver]

... as opposed to the unemployed, jealous, obsessed Clinton-hater, who's got nothing down.
