"Project Runway" at NYFW

Host Heidi Klum attends the "Project Runway" Season 8 finale fashion show at Lincoln Center during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week on Thursday, Sept. 9, 2010, in New York.

Ten aspiring designers showed their collections, although several knew they already didn't make the cut and won't be the Season 8 winner. Extra designers needed to participate to keep secret the winners and losers of episodes that haven't yet aired on Lifetime.
