Project Runway is a reality television show hosted by supermodel Heidi Klum. The show pits fashion designers against each other as they race to complete stylish clothing by a deadline. The show just completed its ninth season and its most recent winner is Anya Ayoung Chee. Anya is a native of Trinidad and Tobago, a sunny southern Caribbean island where Anya-fever has definitely taken hold. A country wide movement helped her win Project Runway’s fan favourite award ($10,000 US) via Twitter vote while her unique talent propelled her to win the overall competition. Competition prizes include $100,00S US for her to start her own fashion line, an editorial feature in Marie Claire magazine and the opportunity to sell a fashion line on Piperlime.com.
