Last year I wrote about Kirsty Doyle, the winner of 2006's Project Catwalk (Elizabeth Hurley's Project Runway spin-off). As I mentioned before Kirsty and fellow contestant Christopher Raeburn were my two favourites and I was shocked that Christopher never made the final. But as is the case with reality TV, it's not always the winner who comes out on top. Christopher has just had one of his designs photographed by Mario Testino and worn by Blake Lively for the Style Ethics page in the August issue of US Vogue. Not too shabby, huh?
I love Christopher's designs (check out his website - he does great menswear too - HERE), and the coat Blake wears is definitely the standout of his A/W 2010 collection. Being featured in US Vogue is obviously a huge deal for any designer and I'm thrilled that Christopher didn't disappear along with Elizabeth Hurley's TV presenting career.
As for Blake, she's Anna's favourite girl right now. Not only did she get her second Vogue cover this year she also sat with Anna at the couture shows in Paris. I wonder what they talk about. The Chuck and Blair love affair probably...
For a 2006 flashback check out this clip from Project Catwalk. 4 mins 30 seconds in is where it heats up as judge Julien Macdonald describes their work as a "loada' rubbish" and ELLE editor Lorraine Candy gives them a grilling.
What do you think of Christopher Raeburn's coat? And what do you make of Anna's love for Blake?
