Britney Spears' Style Is 'So Real,' Christian Siriano Says
Britney Spears has made a career out of crawling around onstage and dancing through her videos in barely there outfits. But when it comes to really nailing down the one moment that Britney was at her most stylish, designer Christian Siriano says it's all about her understated look when she performed onstage with Madonna in 2008.
"My favorite Britney moment was when she was kind of having this tiny bit of a comeback, right at the beginning," he told MTV News. "And it was when she wore the beautiful black pants and that white blouse onstage with Madonna. I thought that was so chic and so not her, so that's why I really liked it."
Britney also dazzled Siriano's senses at the 2008 VMAs. "And then obviously when she won all of her music awards recently in that sequin dress," he recalled. "And she looked really chic, but I liked it. I think it worked."
She also could do no wrong at the 2001 VMAs. "She did wear a black Dolce and Gabbana mini-dress, like, years and years ago," he remembered. "That was good. That was really good. Even though it was crazy, that was good."
Siriano said he would love to tackle the challenge of designing a little something for the pop star. He's already got Lady Gaga on his résumé, so why not?
"I always say, 'Britney, I would love to do it,' " he said. "I would love to make something fabulous for her because fashion-wise, it's very interesting. She's one of the biggest pop icons but ... it's never about clothes ever. It's so weird, because every other of these pop divas it's so much about clothing and fashion, and it's not with Britney. It's very strange."
But, Siriano applauded her down-to-earth, girl-next-door sense of style. "On her down days, she's just a normal girl and in her cutout jeans and Uggs and cut-off T-shirt," he said. "And I think it's kind of cool that it's so real."

Thank god for Danja. I loved Keri Hilson producing/singing
backup for Britney too. I think her voice blends with Britney so well. When Max works with Kelly Clarkson he comes up with good songs that arent in the same
formula over and over again. I kinda feel like Max never thinks outside the box with Brit.
