Project Runway Season Six designer, Christopher Straub showed a 24-piece collection to a sold-out crowd in St. Paul on April 25th.

From Christopher:

The inspiration was "all things in the air: Birds, clouds, parachutes, skyscrapers."

During rehearsal a spotlight fell on me and cut my head and face and bruised my arm...that's why I have a bandage on...blood was running down my face!

Click here for a new interview with Project Runway Season Two winner, Chloe Dao. A highlight: What do you think of this season’s “Project Runway?”

Chloe: I was watching up until Ping, the crazy Asian girl, got eliminated. They let 10 designers show at Fashion Week. It’s insulting to past seasons. What’s the point if [almost] every designer gets to show at Fashion Week? They could have waited and let three designers show. I was turned off and disgusted. I feel bad for both seasons [6 and 7], especially [sixth season winner] Irina [Shabayeva]. She didn’t have the experience of walking out with the crowd.
