Michelle Lesniak Archives

We just can’t get enough of this talented chick! We got to catch up with the ingenious designer after the Stars of Project Runway Fashion Show who with her infectious personality and demeanor filled us in on the deets regarding her amazing collection. Michelle said her designs were inspired by hot air balloons which was a sort of symbolism of her life and falling back. We loved the details of ropes and tassels that brought Michelle’s vision to life.

Moreover, the swim-wear had us at hello and love at first sight due to the high-waisted bottoms that are simply perfection when hiding problem areas. The retro yet modern vibe of the swimsuits had us dreaming of a Dorthy Dandridge/Marilyn Monroe summer with a contempo twist. From start to finish Michelle Lesniak’s show had us crying tears of fashion joy.

Last night no designers were told “Auf Wiedersehen” which when translated means “goodbye” in German. The popular Heidi Klum send off to contestants eliminated from the fashion design competition show was replaced by oohs, ahs and much applause from the packed out house of stylish onlookers. The show included Project Runway alums: Dom Streater, Daniel Esquivel, Michelle Lesniak and Patricia Michaels. Although the show began with a video from Michael Costello stating that he would not be in attendance, Costello surprised one and all by showing his collection and walking the runway with the other designers in a celebratory finale extravaganza.
