As part of its ongoing global campaign, “Saw This, Made This,” Bombay Sapphire has teamed up with fashion designer Christian Siriano on a couture capsule collection inspired by classic gin cocktails. The collaboration was first announced in September, with a ball gown reminiscent of a French 75 taking center stage.
According to a press release, Siriano’s boozy capsule collection showcases an array of distinctive garments, including the Martini Clutch, Bombay Sapphire & Tonic Blouse and the Ultimate Collins Blazer.
Each item is now available for purchase through ChristianSiriano.com. All proceeds generated from the sales of the capsule collection will be donated to GLAAD, a non-profit organization dedicated to LGBTQ advocacy and cultural change by striving for fair, accurate and inclusive representation.
Led by acclaimed filmmaker Baz Luhrmann, the “Saw This, Made This” campaign centers on transforming the ordinary moments of everyday life into art. In line with this philosophy, every item in Siriano’s Bombay Sapphire collection integrates visual and story-telling elements from the classic gin drinks that inspired them.
“As a designer, I see fashion as a canvas for storytelling,” stated Siriano in the press release. “This collaboration with Bombay Sapphire allowed me to weave the narratives of iconic gin cocktails into the very fabric of style.”
“Each piece in this capsule collection tells a story of effervescence, sophistication, and celebration—capturing the spirit of Bombay Sapphire in a wearable form. It’s an exploration of creativity that goes beyond the expected, inviting individuals to infuse their own narratives into the art of fashion.”
Siriano began his fashion career in 2007 after winning the fourth season of “Project Runway.” As the show’s youngest winner, he achieved further success with the 2008 debut of his “Christian Siriano” collection, which was estimated to have generated $5 million by 2012.
The Bombay Sapphire Martini Clutch, inspired by the Bombay Martini, features subtle olive motifs and a cocktail glass-clear body. Meanwhile, the Bombay Sapphire & Tonic Blouse captures the bubbly essence of the Bombay Gin & Tonic with pearl-white buttons and light shimmering fabric. The blue and white flowers on the blouse also reflect the floral garnishes crowning the cocktail.

“We are thrilled by the overwhelming response to the Saw This, Made This campaign since its launch in 2022,” Jaime Keller, Brand Director of BOMBAY SAPPHIRE North America, stated in the release. “Our invitation encouraged people to recognize the creativity and beauty surrounding them.”
“Christian Siriano’s capsule collection stands as a testament to the intersection of creativity and elegance, encapsulating the spirit of this campaign. Through innovative design and inspired silhouettes, Siriano seamlessly translates the allure of BOMBAY SAPPHIRE cocktails into the realm of high fashion.”
In November, Bombay Sapphire introduced an edible art and cocktail experience exclusive to imbibers in the United Kingdom.
