Synopsis:
Project Runway All Stars on the Lifetime Channel is a spin-off series of Project Runway. It features 11 designers from previous seasons who compete in weekly challenges. Contestants are challenged to design and create fashion within restricted parameters of time, material, and theme. In the season finale, the three finalists had five days to create a six-piece collection based on their national heritages and traditions – Spain, Liberia, and Ukraine, respectively. The finalists launched their collections at a runway show at United Nations Headquarters in front of an audience of UN delegates and staff. The episode was hosted by UNICEF National Goodwill Ambassador Alyssa Milano.
