A New Interview with Project Runway Season 11 Winner, MIchelle Lesniak



Michelle Lesniak talks to "The Oregonian."

Highlights:

"I do not plan on leaving Portland," the 34-year-old says. "There are no rules, and if there is a rule that one has to live in New York City or Los Angeles, I plan on breaking that rule." 

Also,  For one thing, she and her husband are getting a divorce, which means she'll be going back to her family name, Lesniak. "It's very amicable," she says. "We put in 10 years of marriage." 

She is still waiting for her prizes! 

Her "Project Runway" victory was especially sweet, given that in the first several weeks of the season, she was on teams that consistently lost. She's still waiting, however, for delivery of her prizes, including $100,000, a 2013 Lexus GS 350 and a $50,000 technology suite by Hewlett-Packard and Intel.
