Our coverage of Fashion week continues with a designer who has found great success since his time on Project Runway. Malan Breton has a great following and celebrity clientele but completely scrapped his original plans for his Fall collection in an effort to have his clothing reflect the times. NY1 Arts and Culture reporter Stephanie Simon has more from Madison Square Garden.

Designer Malan Breton has a saying to match his style "Wherever you go — shine!"

"When I was growing up my grandmother always told me wherever I went to shine, and she used to sing this song to me 'Look for the Silver Lining,' and so I line all of my clothes in silver," Breton said.

That exuberance for fashion and life has attracted Frankie Grande, who often sports Breton's bright colored suits. 

"I can't tell you how often I have looked at a red carpet in bed bored to tears I mean if I see another black Tuxedo I'm going to scream," said Grande. "Men, step up your game and this man has offered me so many wonderful options. I've made best dressed list so many times."

And speaking of best dressed lists, Jessica Pimentel's look dazzled at the Screen Actor's Guild awards.

"I felt like a queen, I felt like a goddess in that dress," Pimentel said. "I got so much love from people it was really overwhelming.

Last time we saw Pimentel she was rocking it  — but in a different way.

But when she's not thrashing on stage with her metal band Alekhine's Gun or playing Maria Ruiz on 'Orange in the New Black' — well she shines.

And you really can't help it in a coat like this. It's sort of like when 'The Matrix' has to go out to a fancy occasion.

But this season's shine is darker. A response to anti-immigrant sentiment.

"It's a very different time in America when I came here in '96 to New York it was a very open time and it was an opportunity for people to grow and develop in a new country and now it doesn't feel as welcome," Breton said. "And this collection really reflects that."

Malan orchestrated a runway show that yearns for the glitz and glamour of the 1930s but can't hold back the darkness of pre-World War Two Europe. Still he shows his hope with a romantic flair and a reminder that there's always silver lining.
