Top 5 Looks: 3rd Place
We are still scratching our heads over Maya Luz. One of the youngest designers of Season 7, she consistently produced winning looks week after week that spoke of a maturity far beyond her age. So close to Bryant Park and she simply walked away.
In Episode 7 "Hard Wear", the 10 remaining designers were tasked with creating a garment and an accessory from a hardware store. It was the classic Project Runway unconventional materials challenge that always seems to bring out the best in the designers.
Maya created an open weave jacket with a high collar that was made out of rope from venetian blinds, covering a shift dress made out of window screen. The visual effect of the jacket drew your eyes to her killer accessory - a necklace fashioned from house keys, chain and mesh screen. It matched the dress and jacket perfectly and the judges swooned over it.
Many felt that this design was a more worthy winner over Jay's garbage bag dress. And one can't help but wonder if a win here would have given her the confidence to continue to the end. We will never know the answer to that question but for now, we can celebrate her successes.
Congratulations Maya, you made it on the BPR Top 5 Looks of Season 7!
Project Runway Season 4 Meets Season 7
We love it when seasons collide and it is apparent that Project Runway Alums are all part of one big family.
Jack Mackenroth and Kevin Christiana joined Maya Luz and Seth Aaron Henderson at Mila Hermanovski's viewing party last night.
From Jack: Hey BPR, Here are some cute pics from last nights viewing party in downtown New York. Kevin and I stopped in to meet Mila, Seth Aaron and Maya. Mila organized the event and it was great to meet everyone and all their friends and share war stories. I tried to get them to tell me who the winner was but they have all been very well trained. We will have to wait and see......:) OXO

No More Mystery
So this is what happened to Maya? Lifetime pretty much gives up the ghost to the question we've been asking ever since the fashion week finale filming. But they have added yet another riddle. Who is coming back?
This is getting juicy.
My, Oh Maya

What Happened To Maya?
That is the big question everyone is asking coming out of the tent at Bryant Park. After last night's elimination of Anna, there were still 11 designers left in the competition. We fully expected to see 11 collections today but Heidi said right at the beginning of the show there would be 10 shown. We initially passed it off as simply a misstatement on Heidi's part but in the end there were only 10 collections that walked!
Inexplicably missing was Maya Luz. She was in the crowd to watch the finale but did not show a collection. What happened? Her work has been among the strongest of any of the designers up to this point and many of us would not have been surprised to see her as a finalist. What could have transpired on the show that would have left her out? Your guess is as good as ours.
