Friday, October 06, 2006 by
We got a note from Nick Verreos today:

"Hi Tom and Lorenzo,

We're so excited about
this! Now hopefully I can make some Project Runway Fans dream come true....and a few Drag Queens too!!

Uncle Nick"



Windsor and Project Runway’s Verreos
Head to the Prom

Los Angeles–based young contemporary retailer Windsor will unveil a collection of dresses in January under the Nick Verreos for Windsor label. The new collection is designed by Nick Verreos, co-designer of contemporary label Nikolaki and veteran of the second season of Bravo TV’s hit fashion reality show "Project Runway."

He is so sweet and talented.
Best wishes, darling!

I'm glad he's doing well, unlike somebody else you guys just posted about.

That Barbie challenge will always be one of my favorite memories of him.

Love you, Nick!

That's great news for Nick! He is by far my favorite contestant from all three seasons. I loved his work and he's got a wonderful personality.

And he's so cute, with mezmerizing eyes. This is the first time I heard Nick had a partner, what a lucky guy.

If only I could meet someone like Nick around my age :)

I wish you the best of success!

There's actually a post here somewhere with a picture of Nick and his boyfriend. I can't find it now. Check the archives. He's cute too.

I love his sense of humor, and he surely has one of the biggest smiles I've ever seen.

I'll never forget his line: "I feel like a little Mexican kid - buy my gum, buy my Chiclet"?

It's fucking hilarious.

How fabulous! I hope I can buy one or two dresses.
Thanks for the info, fabboys.

Followed the link, scrolled down and viewed 3 of his dresses. Liked them all. Now, someone has to talk to his model about NOT looking as if she hates the world and everything in it. She should look as if she is "working it."

WOW! The vibe in this comment section is totally different from the Santino post section. Sure, some people gave the latter some love but in here it's unanimous. Can't wait to see Season2!

On another matter: it seems most of these brave, creative, beloved contestants are going forward into battle against a truly fiercesome Many-Headed Fashion Hydra... to wit: they're making dresses! Not all the time, I grant, but that seems risky because last I heard on the matter from my grandparents, women don't wear those anymore unless they HAVE to. Maybe the dress, long or short, is due for a comeback, and hopefully PR contestants can be on the crest of that revolution (I'm not opposed to seeing more leg, sayin').

Been there, wore those dresses late 70's early 80's. Love Nick though, he's sweet.

I love Uncle Nick and wish him well!

Lisette said...

Uncle Nick is the cutest! Now maybe he can erase Promslut-itis!

Suzanne said...

Is it me or does this model look wasted? LOL Maybe she's just hungry.

What's with that belt buckle? I thought it was an police badge at first. A fashion police badge!!! LOL..... I know, that was bad.

Mel said...

Almost makes me want to go back to high school and go to prom all over again. Remember I said ALMOST!
