If you’re a huge Project Runway fan like I am, then the thought of fan favorites from various seasons returning to compete gets you all kinds of excited. That’s the premise for Project Runway All Stars, the spin-off of the famous design-based reality show.

While this isn’t the first time nails have appeared on the runway, it is a rare occurrence. Hair and make-up are usually offered to designers and models, but nails are usually left out (or at least not filmed), which is funny considering their increasing presence at Fashion Week.

So I was particularly happy to see Lauren B Beauty sponsor nail art for the last week’s avant-garde challenge. The designers went all in with the nail looks, created with Lauren B products. Nail professionals Teresa King and Geraldine Holford contributed to bringing nail art to the runway.
