Heidi Klum Launches Project Runway’s New Season with a Bang

Auf She Goes…

It’s a good summer to be Heidi Klum. She’s nominated for an Emmy. Her legs are insured for more than, well, everyone else’s. Project Runway premiered last week to record ratings on Bravo. The Swiss named a rose after her in Geneva. And she has a husband who wakes her every morning by gently singing “Kiss from a Rose” in her ear. No offense, Tyra, but we’d rather by Auf’d by Heidi than accepted by you. Klum is our pick of Supermodel-turned-Mogul any day.

Of course, great “Welcome to Project Runway” power comes great promotional responsibility. And so she’s doing the rounds, hitting up talk shows and red-carpet events, making sure we don’t forget that - A) Project Runway is better than Rock of Love, and B) she’s the crown jewel of the show’s brand.

On a recent visit to Conan, she showed off her $2 million legs in a pair of hot peep-toe pumps. Her sexy little black dress is by Nikolaki, the line co-designed by Runway alum (and ShoeMinx favorite) Nick Verroes.

The talk-show circuit is only successful if we all tune in to watch people make gowns out of produce. Which we did. Because we do what Heidi tells us. And while no one had any chance of surpassing Austin Scarlett’s first-season brilliance, there were shining moments of promise that will keep us tuning in.

Would we wear Kelli’s winning dress? Maybe. Would we wear her metallic shoes? Heck, yeah. Bluefly, anticipating our reaction, has picked out its best Project Runway-inspired metallic pumps just for us. So when you’re done stitching your coffee filters together, be sure to head on over and order yourself some bronze treasures.

We wouldn’t hesitate to put these Giuseppe Zanotti rounded-toe pumps on our shoe wall. And they’re handmade. Heidi would approve.

Nothing beats a corn-husk masterpiece. Farmers should thank Austin for making crops sexy.
