| Lexus GS |
Project Runway and Lexus teamed up for an awesome concept and challenge! The episode started with the designers meeting Heidi Klum on the runway to get an overview. Then, they headed to South Street Seaport to meet Tim Gunn to find out the details of the Lexus Team Challenge: Create an evening gown that best represents the Lexus GS’s bold, aggressive styling. This challenge also required the 14 designers to incorporate an assigned vehicle color into their look.
To make it even more difficult, they were only given $300 and one day to create a design for a former Project Runway participant to wear at the Emmys.
The designers were paired in teams of two, which of course coupled several polar opposites together for some good TV. The pairs were: Christopher and Andrea, Nathan and Sonjia, Buffi and Elena, Fabio and Ven, Gunnar and Kooan, Melissa and Dmitry, Alicia and Raul.

| I met Project Runway's Tim Gunn a few months ago! |
(spoiler alert) Elena stormed off and it was dram-ugh… a battle brews with Andrea and Christopher (which might be why she ends up leaving the show) ...and Kooan was kooky per usual, which is always fun to watch. :)
Ven ended up winning and Raul was sent home. Personally, I think Sonjia and Nathan's gold dress should have won because it was truly the only one Emmy-worthy. But they didn't ask me to be the judge so it doesn't really matter what I think! haha!
It's a great episode to watch because the drama is intense, fashions are fab, the Lexus-inspired styling is intriguing, Krysten Ritter was the guest judge, and Heidi's outfit was bangin' with some killer leg wear and shoes. So, if you didn't get a chance to watch tonight, make sure you catch it online!
Sounds like this won't be the last we hear of the Lexus/Project Runway, either. I did a little digging after the show and found that Lexus is connecting with PR fans in several different ways this season. Click here to learn more about the partnership!
