Are you a devoted fan? Can you be at Bryant Park in NYC on February 20th at 9:00 AM?

Want to Attend the Project Runway Finale Party?

Enter the Fantasy Runway contest. The prize is a terrific trip to the TRESemm� finale party in NYC. I can tell you from personal experience that this event is more fun than you can imagine. Last year I had the opportunity to speak with all of the designers that attended the event including the four finalists, Laura Bennett, Mychael Knight, Uli Herzner and the winner Jeffrey Sebelia. I sat down and chatted with Austin Scarlett and laughed with Jay McCarroll. And of course Tim Gunn was there as charming and soignee as ever. (Click here for my slideshow.) This year's party promises to be even more fun and we'd love for one of our readers to attend. But you have to enter first!

While you're entering, be sure to join the BPR league. You can join as many leagues as you like or you can even create one of your own; you don't have to have just one alliance so BPR really should be one of them.

There is also a 'Party Central' feature in which you can submit your viewing party pictures to win a TRESemm� product package.

This is a contest designed for Project Runway fans to make watching the show even more fun. The prize is fantastic and we want YOU to win. Sign up and make it work.
