Xcel Brands, Owner of the C Wonder Brand Announces:

Xcel Brands Inc., continuing to tap talent for its portfolio of brands, has tapped Christian Sirano as creative director of C. Wonder by Christian Siriano, which is expected to launch in spring 2023.

The fashion designer has helmed his own brand since 2008 and has been a member of the Council of Fashion Designers of America since 2013. Siriano will continue to design his own collection while bringing his signature to C. Wonder by Christian Siriano, characterized by Xcel in its announcement Friday as a brand for modern ready-to-wear and accessories basics, home and entertaining products, “with a cosmopolitan slant and available at an incredible value.”

Siriano will also serve as the public face and voice of the brand, including appearing on HSN’s broadcast and streaming service in 2023. (C. Wonder products are currently sold and can be bought at Walmart, Amazon and some specialty stores.)

Good news!  I have a couple of items by him that I enjoy.  And with HSN's sales I look forward to getting more.

Christian Sirano becomes the Isaac Mizrahi of HSN?

Thanks for the info, something exciting to look forward too!  IMO Christian is a fantastic designer.  What I like about him is that he designs for all sizes, shapes and price ranges. His Met Gala and Oscar creations are works of art.

I also enjoy him on Project Runway and can't wait to see him on HSN.

Christian could be the Lori Goldstein of HSN.

Remember,  she's an Xcel employee too.

I sure hope not.  He has more talent in his little toe than Isaac ever had.  Looking forward to what he brings.

I have a few C Wonder items and like them.  Just what I need another brand I like.  I only buy 4 brands now and good thing don't like any of the new brands, but I will like C Wonder and I sure don't need any more tempting!

@Johnnyeager   I have a feeling his offerings will have wider appeal.

@mspatmac    Don't underestimate Isaac.  We don't see anything he designs, just stuff that Excel has him sell.

I was on a cruise ship some years ago, before Isaac hit QVC, that had an Isaac boutique, his couture line.  They had beautiful things.

I like C Wonder designs, I like Christian SIriano, I like Project Runway!

I also have a HSN CC that I hardly use any more.

Not sure if I really need any more clothes, though....
