Sep 30, 2011 @ 3:20 pm

Project Runway lovers will be happy to know that last night’s winning looks are now available online! Heidi Klum & Co. (with guest judge Olivia Palermo) charged the designer contestants with creating sophisticated ’70s-inspired looks. The prize: The top styles get produced for Piperlime.com! Anya Ayoung-Chee’s plunge-front printed jumpsuit won the top spot ($198 at piperlime.com). “It’s the easiest way to be stylish without being uncomfortable,” Ayoung-Chee said of her one-piece look. Palermo, the online store’s new guest editor, also surprised designer Bert Keeter by telling him his second-place two-tone little white dress also won a spot on Piperlime.com (on sale for $98). “It’s very simple, but it’s quite nice,” Klum said of the LWD. “It looks very elegant.” Tell us: Which of these Project Runway looks would you wear?

7 Holiday Jewelry Picks Under $100

Dec 16, 2010 @ 3:59 pm

Designer Shoshanna Gruss partnered with Judith Ripka to launch her second jewelry collection on QVC this week. One of our favorite items from the line are the gemstone-hued Freeform Shape Drop Earrings (shown in amethyst purple, $27; at QVC.com), which Gruss also loves. “If I wear my hair in a ponytail, they are a great statement look,” the designer told us. “And even if I wear my hair down, the purple color is bold enough that it peaks through and adds the perfect pop of color to my outfit.” Check out the gallery to see six other great holiday pieces, all under $100.

Mondo’s Piperlime T-Shirt to Benefit AIDS Research

Nov 29, 2010 @ 5:52 pm

When contestant Mondo Guerra announced he was HIV positive on last season’s Project Runway, it was one of the most moving moments in the show’s history. The designer has since become an AIDS awareness activist, recently creating a collection of limited-edition T-shirts to benefit the amFAR AIDS research organization. The $50 “Live and Love” shirts will retail at Piperlime starting this Wednesday, December 1st—$20 from each sale which will go directly to amFAR.
