| Jane Metzler & Rosemary Lavan |
On September 7th I was fortunate to receive a ticket to the Project Runway finale show although the winner of the reality show could not be divulged at that time. It was being taped two months ahead and it was part of the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week held at Lincoln Center. With me were my tres fashionable cousins, Rosemary Metzler Lavan and Jane Metzler. We found our seats quickly and stared amazingly at the 50 or so paparazzi that were waiting to get the first photos of Heidi Klum, Jennifer Hudson and the two designer-judges as they strutted down the runway. The audience roared and clapped as the stars strolled by. We all had to admit that Heidi Klum in her gold lame and sequined gown looked pretty spectacular. She waved to the crowd and introduced the first designer who proceeded to then introduced his "line" of clothes worn by the models. The next 7 designers of the 8 remaining in the contest then introduced their individual lines of clothes, each designer hoping to win the grand prize for the season. Each line was different emphasizing the style of the particular designer. We in the audience picked out our own favorite gowns and outfits. The show was exciting and we all took lots of IPhone pictures which did not produce well due to the overhead spotlights and lights flashing from the paparazzi. As we were leaving we saw actress Emily Blunt signing autographs for fans. In the lobby I snapped a picture of a few of the designers from this season's show.
