News From Nick



Here is the schedule of Nick's appearances! Will he be in your town? Please let us know if you are available to serve as a BPR field reporter!

Katy Checks In


One thing we've learned after three seasons of Project Runway is that the designers don't have to win in order to end up as winners. BPR regular Katherine Gerdes checks in with her latest:
I'm crazy busy getting ready for the DIVA fashion show this Saturday! I've got a whole new collection which is going to be "split" into 2 fashion shows coming up, DIVA this week and Voltage April 11th. Don't worry though... I've made the designs work as a whole collection and look good as two smaller shows (that was a tricky one to figure out!). I've also been invited by LVMH to show the entire collection out at Foxwoods CT on march 24th. I'll send you more info on that as I get it.
Click here for ticket information on this Saturday's event. Anyone in the Minneapolis area available to send in a field report? E-mail the team at BPR. Good luck Katy!

Who Is The Mystery Guest??

Disappointing news from Andy Cohen today as he reports that 8-months pregnant Nina Garcia is unable to join him tonight on his weekly webcast, Watch What Happens. Nina was originally scheduled to appear with her Elle cohort, Top Design judge Margaret Russell.

However, Andy promises a "surprise guest that you are going to be excited about" and one that "if I tell you who the second guest is you will jump to conclusions". Could it be someone from Project Runway? Hmmmm.......

Meanwhile, join us tonight on Blogging Top Design for our coverage of Episode 4. The party room will be open!

BPR All-Stars Wildcard Poll

Attention Los Angeles - Suzette reports that a new Mood fabrics is opening soon in the mini-mall at the corner of La Cienega and Pico Blvd.

Here is a very unflattering look at Project Runway from US magazine. Of course in the interest of being the "Complete" source of Runway news I have to include it....sigh.

Question for producers: Is this show about finding the next Great American Fashion Designer or is it about finding the next Great Reality TV Star? Either answer is fine - but I just really want to know. Are we looking for designers with "Character" or just "Characters."

Tim Gunn and Michael Kors are both quoted in this article from the South Florida Sun-Sentinel about Oscar Fashions. Thanks Cat.

Project Dahl


BPR Field Reporters, Nancy T, Sarah T and Eric W visited Alison Kelly's "Project Dahl" event at the Jonathan Shorr Gallery on Friday night. Here is their report:

The moment we exited the subway in Soho, we could tell that it would be an auspicious night for the Blogging Project Runway correspondents. At the top of the subway stairs, a guy handed us postcards advertising a sale and Spring Preview at EMC2, Emmett McCarthy’s store. Pocketing the cards for later, we braved the ice and walked to the Jonathan Shorr Gallery, where Alison was displaying her new collection of dresses, tops, and jewelry in a show called “Project Dahl.” Everything shown will be available for purchase on Shopbop in late February.

A Note From Tim Gunn

Dear BPR,

The Bailey House event was wonderful and it broke all previous fund-raising records. There was a lot of media there, including Entertainment Tonight, so I don't know why there's such a dearth of coverage. And the crowd was huge in spite of frigid temperatures and icy conditions from the previous day's snowstorm. A good time was had by all!

I am loath to tell you that I was the cheap date of the live auction. I went for $3,250, Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan garnered $3,500 together, Barbara Walters went for about $7,000 (my memory fades here), and Anderson Cooper went for...$22,000!!!!! What can one say, except that he's worth every penny!

Also, Bravo was a big supporter of the event, and the executives turned up en masse. My new Liz Claiborne pals turned up, too, which was very touching.

By the way, I'm on Martha on Monday. We taped it this past week. I brought three recent graduates with me and we have a mini fashion show. Martha is more generous of spirit, thoughtful, warm, and welcoming than I can adequately describe. She is divine and sublime. And she looks even more fabulous in person than she does on camera.

Also by the way, I'm covering red carpet fashion for The Today Show, again, this time for the Oscars. I will do all that I can to make certain that I'm not asked any questions about stars whose clothes I haven't seen. I was mortified when Matt Lauer asked me about Angelina Jolie's Golden Globes dress and I hadn't seen her. How could I respond except with the truth? Accordingly, I was surprised -- delighted, but surprised -- when The Today Show called, again.

I received a SAG application as a result of the Ugly Betty appearances. I'm tardy submitting it, but I will!

No word yet on dates for the season four auditions. I trust that Blogging Project Runway will know before I do!

XOX Tim

Michael Knight in Seattle


Julie L reports from Seattle. (I can't quite get accustomed to "Mychael" - I'll work on it!)

Mychael Knight was my choice for fan favorite of Season 3. So when the opportunity to meet him in person at my old job (Starbucks Headquarters) presented itself – I knew I’d be asking my new boss for a long lunch in order to “Make it Happen”!

A few hundred employees (ex-employees), friends and family members chatted and waited in the 9th floor commons until Mychael was introduced to the stage. Everyone was clapping and hollering for him as he shyly smiled that great brace-filled sweet smile I came to appreciate on Season 3. Wearing a baseball cap, Starbucks T-shirt, bright green sweater jacket and jeans, he described his new collaboration with Starbucks in custom designing T-shirts that customers can choose depending on their favorite drink. They showed a short video that explained the idea, showed footage of Mychael on PR and meeting with the creative team at Sbux. He said that his favorite drink is a Grande Caramel Macchiato. After the video he said that he also really likes the Tazo Passion tea: “So yummy” – again with a grin from ear to ear.

From The Mailbox

Angela Keslar is scheduled to appear as the hostess at a children's charity fashion show at Penn State this weekend.

Austin Scarlett will be at the "Artful Wedding" event in Richmond on Sunday.

Here is another article about Michael Knight designing the Starbucks t-shirt. Also Attention Seattle:

Mychael Knight, finalist from the hit Bravo show Project Runway, will appear at the Olive Way Starbucks in Seattle, at 2 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 15. The designer will autograph and showcase his latest project, "My Starbucks" t-shirts by Mychael Knight.

Starbucks has collaborated with Mychael Knight on this limited run of customizable one-of-a-kind t-shirts. Each t-shirt will be modified with his design to display specific Starbucks® beverages allowing individual consumers to wear their favorite drink on their shirt.

"My Starbucks" t-shirts, by Mychael Knight, encourage individuality and personalization in beverage choices, fashion and life. Designed to showcase how easy and fun it is to customize a Starbucks® beverage, the t-shirts will be available on www.Starbucks.com beginning Feb. 15.


Here is an interview with Michael in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Celebrate with Emmett McCarthy at EMc2! This is a huge sale - up to 75% off!

Dear Laura and BPR Team:

Sorry to be out of the loop these past weeks, the death of my brother Lawrence took me off my tracks.

We are coming up on a year anniversary at the Emmett McCarthy EMc2 Boutique.

So much has happened in the last couple of months that I have been busy working trying to meet the demands of the business. We have two new members of the EMc2 team, Erin McDonnell [Ha. Another EMc!] in design and Melissa Vega in sales. Our new design studio on West 38th Street (just a few doors West of Mood Fabrics) Is where we now work.
Erin and I went to Milan to negotiate with Italian shoe manufacturers who will be creating our shoes available in our boutique in August for fall. We are busy working on both the shoe collection and the upcoming handbag collection.
At the same time we are working on filling the boutique with Spring and trying to jump ahead and get our fall collections designed on schedule with the industry.
We are presently busy with our Love 4 Sale! Sample sale and with the mentions in Daily Candy, TimeOut NY and the post we have a lot of traffic despite the snow and cold.

Thanks for your continuing support, and know when you don't hear from me it is because I am busy with work!

xoxo
Emmett

Live and in Tights!


Hiya BPR!

Well, it's been a while, and I have just filmed another episode of How Do I Look?, so I promise to write not one but two BTS passages about the experience for you guys. But, bigger news than that is that I am producing a dance piece with Jamie, and it is performing this weekend. He did the choreography and I did the costumes. It should be a lot of fun, complete with a piece where we dance a small duet. Those that can make it will get to find out who is "the sh*t". Literally. [Ed. note: no actual pooping is involved...] I've pasted the press release below, so BPR has all the info.

A Note From Malan Breton


Dear Laura,

I just wanted to say thank you for your support and coverage of my showing at Mercedes Benz fashion week. This season the collection paid homage to structure, architecture and a young Elizabeth Taylor. It was also an ode to the many new and wonderful friends I have made since my departure from the show.
Sadly, the looks list that was printed for the event was not the final copy so many of the details were not featured like the quality wools and silks etc. There were so many detailed sleeves and trousers this season, I am sorry that the lists were not accurate.

Click here for an accurate list of all of Malan's looks and models as well as the rest of his note to BPR.
