Project Runway Premiere Party 7/28

The stylish masses convened at the Caterpillar Lounge this past Thursday to celebrate yet another of our talented local brethren's induction into the Project Runway hall of fame. Minneapolis' Danielle Everine passed the first challenge with an artful two-tone top and a perfectly tailored pair of high-waisted shorts. Upon being deemed "safe" Everine commented that being safe "wasn't good enough." And we agree! We can't wait to see what Miss Danielle comes up with next.

Last night's party was a packed house, with a who's who of local fashion in attendance. Beloved season six contestant, Christopher Straub even made a cameo and shared a couch and a few drinks with Danielle!

Join l'etoile at the Caterpillar Lounge each Thursday through the season to catch episodes, sip some drinks (including our drink special, The Everine Fizz!) and nosh on sushi to your heart's content. Click HERE for all the deets!
