Benito Skinner knows how to make an entrance. The 25-year-old comedian is known for his dead-on impressions, but he isn't one to shy away from a fun costume, either. Last Halloween, he pulled out all the stops for Lizzie McGuire's igloo dress, and this year for Heidi Klum's iconic Halloween party, he knew he had to outdo himself, so he re-created Kylie Jenner's 2019 Met Gala look. "I wanted something as big and grand as the Lizzie McGuire igloo dress, and I was stressed to find something that would be as absurd and Camp and me as that," he told Popsugar.
You can't scroll through Benito's feed without finding tons of Kardashian content, so when he and boyfriend Terrence O'Connor were watching the Met Gala back in May, they knew they'd found their costumes when Kendall Jenner and Kylie hit the carpet. "I just knew. I feel like so...

A familiar face returns as the designers are challenged with another competition that features many twists and turns — but who will be in and who will be out?
Host Alyssa Milano introduces a familiar face to the designers: Nina Garcia of Marie Claire and Project Runway judge! Having recently become a part of editorial platform HallofStyle.com, Nina asks the contestants to pair up with a blogger featured on the website to showcase a trend for 2014. Several twists make up this challenge; not only will the bloggers be the designers’ models, but in the look they must incorporate Pantone’s color for 2014, radiant orchid. The winning look will be endorsed by Nina in a video that will appear on Hall of Style’s home page that will be viewed by the websites some fifty million subscribers. The winner will also receive a prize package from Pantone worth over $10,000! Not too shabby.

The designers are told they have the night off and are invited to spend their evening at Jay-z‘s hot club, 40/40.

Milano, who has a licensed sports apparel line for women -- and is the daughter of a designer and granddaughter of a milliner -- says she loves being around the fashions from creation to execution.
The new "All Stars" season features designers Isaac Mizrahi and Georgina Chapman returning as judges, joined by newcomer Zanna Roberts Rassi of Marie Claire magazine. Guest judges include Kristin Chenoweth, Michael Urie and Nate Berkus.

Dmitry Sholokhov had to keep his "Project Runway" Season 10 win a secret for so long, he almost forgot about what happened. Zap2it caught up with the designer the morning after the finale, and he was very excited to finally be able to talk about his winning moment.
"It was very difficult not to talk about it, especially for the first week, then I kind of got used to it. Then I almost forgot," Sholokhov jokes. "Last night I had the chance to relive this moment again."
While Sholokhov was definitely one of the strongest competitors all season long, he didn't really start winning challenges until the second half. "I stayed positive throughout the competition, but I definitely felt like I was ignored for the first half. The thing is, I was never the designer who was on the bottom. I was always safe or on top, but I wasn't...

In case there was any doubt that it's Fashion Week in New York, a glance around Lincoln Center reminds. Here, the usual skinny -- social X-rays who attend opera and ballet by night -- are replaced by the fashionista skinny, models who look as if they not had a good meal in, well, years.
Tourists line up, cameras poised. More proof that "Project Runway" remains a phenomenon in its 10th season is how hot this ticket is, how many layers of security even invited guests go through and how many fans wait outside, just for a glimpse.
The season finale is a fashion show, and at Fashion Week it takes on a patina. Inside the theater, the hosts and guest host, walk the runway to pose in front of banks of photographers. Judge and producer Heidi Klum rocks a draped, sequined, backless dress, and looks remarkable, even more so for a mother of four.
