Top 5 Looks: 2nd Place


Amy Sarabi was an early favorite to take it all in Season 7. With a win and a top 3 finish in the first four episodes she quickly established herself as a force to be reckoned with. Her bold design choices and sweet nature made her a fan favorite this season and we were sad to not see her survive until the end. And although her design in the "Design Your Heart Out" garnered her a win, it was her top 3 look from "Fashion Farm" that turned out to be a big favorite of yours.

In episode 2, the Project Runway designers were literally sent off to the farm and challenged to create a party-worthy look out of a potato sack. Amy dip-dyed squares of burlap and layered them to create a stunning skirt with a handkerchief hemline. Using a different shade of the burlap, she made a cute, billowy top with a halter neckline and a bare back that her client-model Allison asked for.

Who knew a potato sack could be so fun and flirty? Amy nailed every aspect of this challenge and it was a big surprise when she lost out to Jay for the win. We can't change that decision but we can certainly give her a consolation prize. Congratulations Amy, you made one of the BPR Top 5 Looks of Season 7!

Tomorrow is finale day - check back in as we reveal your pick for the Top Look of Season 7!

Congratulations, Amy

You had an immediate connection with your model muse and you were committed in making her feel beautiful, sexy and confident. You created a flowing dress that Georgina Chapman called ethereal as she noted how happy your client looked. Michael Kors said your dress was elegant yet modern and admired how you handled the fabric noting the shine of the charmeuse through the chiffon. Nina Gracia also loved the fabric that you picked and stated that the gown was feminine. We agree with the judges that you picked the right silhouette for your girl. You judiciously used a soupçon of the branded fabric at the waistband while you rocked that Campbell's scarf headband yourself on the runway. Well played, Amy!
