I hate the terminology of "costume" because my clothes are not costumes at all. i think they're high fashion, avant-garde, and more couture, definitely, and yes, some of my pieces are not particularly wearable, but i wouldn't say they're costumes, i'd say they're more couture.

More From Christian Siriano

I am, it seems, an avant-garde dramatist. it would even seem obvious since i am present here at discussions on the avant-garde theatre. it is all entirely official. but what does the term avant-garde mean?

Costume is always an asset. normal costume you have a lot to say about - if you're wearing suits or ties, and what color you want, and how it's going to be cut, and stuff like that, and whether or not you're going to wear a hat, and blah, blah, blah. but, when you're wearing a special costume, and of course, costume is probably the second ingredient in character, script being first, i always find that the costume does a lot to cement your character, to put it firmly in mind.

My work first engaged with the early russian avant-garde; the paintings of moholy-nagy, el lissitzky's 'prouns' and naum gabo's sculptures, but in particular with the work of kasimir malevitch - he was an early influence for me as a representative of the modern avant-garde intersection between art and design.

Now there is no taboo; everything is allowed. but one cannot simply go back to tonality, it’s not the way. we must find a way of neither going back nor continuing the avant-garde. i am in a prison: one wall is the avant-garde, the other wall is the past, and i want to escape.
Wall Past Escaping
The avant-garde understands itself as invading unknown territory, exposing itself to the dangers of sudden, shocking encounters, conquering an as yet unoccupied future ... the avant-garde must find a direction in a landscape into which no one seems to have yet ventured.
Encounters Avant Garde Landscape
An avant-garde man is like an enemy inside a city he is bent on destroying, against which he rebels; for like any system of government, an established form of expression is also a form of oppression. the avant-garde man is the opponent of an existing system.

Unless a thing can be defined by measurement, it has no place in a theory. and since an accurate value of the momentum of a localized particle cannot be defined by measurement it therefore has no place in the theory.
