Project Runway Alums Design For The YSL Retrospective

File this under strange and unusual collaborations.

The Denver Art Museum selected eight Project Runway alums to design Yves Saint Laurent-inspired looks for a fashion show to celebrate the opening of the new Yves Saint Laurent: The Retrospective.

Michael Costello, Mondo Guerra, Rafael Cox, Danielle Everine, Cecilia Motwani, Becky Ross, Julie Tierney, and Fallene Wells each designed five looks for the show taking place on March 30th.

OK, we know Michael and Mondo, but who the heck are the rest of these people!?

You'd think they could have convinced some of the more well known alums like Christian Siriano, Chris March or even Santino to participate.
