Surely she has some ideas that can spark shock and awe, something a bit more high-fashion?įinally, he lands in Queens to see “crazy-cool artist” Kristina. What do I got? Blue crabs?” As she gives him a literal peek behind the curtain, he gasps at her works in progress so much is already finished! Still, there's a twinge of concern in his voice as he takes in all that macrame. Her collection, influenced by the embroidery of indigenous peoples in Mexico, spurs Christian's jealousy: “I'm from Maryland.

Tonight's episode starts as our remaining designers-Shantall, Coral, Chasity and Kristina-arrive in New York City to present their 10-piece collections for New York Fashion Week. But, really, couldn't we all see it coming? ![]() He deserves a second serving as thanks for his mid-season premonition, forecasting how tonight's momentous finale might wrap. ![]() Christian Siriano is pouring himself an extra glass of champagne tonight-and not only because he somehow survived another season hosting Project Runway. ![]()
