Lemon aid: Alexa Chung wows in yellow as she supports fashion designer Christian Siriano at his after-party in New York
She’s known for being a fashion icon, so it’s little wonder Alexa Chung was invited to fashion designer, Christian Siriano’s private dinner and after-party held at Koi in Soho on Saturday night.
The event followed the fashion designer’s runway show, which was part of the Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week in which he showcased his looks for Fall/Winter 2014.
Alexa, 30, flew from Los Angeles to New York especially for NYFW and on Wednesday, she tweeted: ‘Annoying instagrams of LA fun end now. Annoying instagrams of NYFW will commence shortly….’
Fashion icon: Alexa Chung looked chic in her lemon ensemble at the Christian Siriano fashion show in NYC on Saturday
Chung, who has modelled before for the designer, looked fashion forward in a lemon fluffy jumper which she teamed with a matching lemon and metallic A-line skirt.
She kept her slim legs bare and added a pair of low-heel white Mary Jane’s to her ensemble.
A creature of habit, Alexa kept her trademark tousled hairstyle for the event, before tying it up into a ponytail later on in the evening, to keep her locks away from her face.

On her way to the venue, Alexa wore a simple grey overcoat to compensate for the freezing New York weather but she admitted she is not a fan of the cold climate.
On her way home from the party, she threw off her coat and posed alongside a snow-covered tree, writing: ‘The good thing about winter is NOTHING.’
She also carried her beloved kitten-print tote bag by Longchamp, which is now a few seasons old.
