LESLIE JONES: PULL UP TO THE BUMPER, BABY!
Who, in a million years, would have guessed that the Project Runway winner in 2008 would go on to be named by Time magazine as one of The Most Influential People of 2018? Diminutive designer Christian Siriano made all the right moves on the show – and afterward. He started his own business with his winnings and has become a red carpet darling. And he’s not too uppity to dress women larger than a size 2. In fact, when he heard that SNL star Leslie Jones had nothing to wear to her Ghostbusters premier in 2016, (designers snubbed her) he volunteered to dress her and they’ve been besties ever since. He also created her Grace Jones tribute outfit for the Time 100 Gala.
