AceShowbiz - "Project Runway: All Stars" season 4 wrapped up with the winner being announced in the finale which aired on Thursday, February 12. Helen Castillo, Dmitry Sholokhov and Sonjia Williams were the remaining designers in the competition going into the finale.
For the final task, they had to create collections that represented the four seasons of the year. With only four days and $3,000 to complete the challenge, they began picking out fabrics for their collections.
Dmitry aimed for a timeless creation and one of kind piece, playing with the symmetry. Helen went with Wednesday Adams theme, while Sonjia designed for bold sassy and sexy women like her.
On the Final Runway at the Diamond Horseshoe, actress Mira Sorvino and Zac Posen joined the regular judges. Sonjia showed her collection first. Zac loved the red lace dress which he described as being "market ready," while her yellow coat was a standout.
Dmitry was praised for his signature cut-out technique. The judges liked the "marijuana leaf" dress. As for Helen's collection, the judges loved that it looked contemporary but they agreed that there wasn't a "wow."
After some deliberation, the judges declared Helen as the second runner-up. Dmitry was then crowned the champion, and Sonjia finished in the second place. Dmitry had previously won the 10th season of "Project Runway".
Following the season finale, viewers who loved Helen's creation took to Twitter to express their disappointment with the results. Valerie Nicole tweeted, "I just don't understand..he already won his season. Helen deserved to win and I'm kind of upset about this now #PRAllStars." Kevin Oberbeck added, "This season should have gone to @designer_helen! No more former winners."
