Christian Siriano Used His NYFW Show to Endorse Cynthia Nixon

New York primaries are on September 13th, right at the tail end of fashion week. And so for his spring 2019 Hawaii-themed show, Christian Siriano used his considerable platform to endorse Cynthia Nixon's gubernatorial run. Every seat included a Cynthia for NY brochure, with a list of her policies: increased funding for public schools, justice reform, affordable rents, fixing the subway, Medicare for All, and protection of women's rights. As the slogan says: "It's time to fight for a New York that belongs to all of us, not just the few."

Siriano sent out a model in a "Vote for Cynthia" shirt, and wore one himself for his final runway walk. Nixon herself was seated front row.
