Project Runway's top nine live out their dreams on the runway.
Host Heidi Klum warmed up the audience by walking the runway with her fellow judges designer Michael Kors, magazine editor Nina Garcia -- and guest judge, designer L'Wren Scott.
The reality show has become part of the fashion industry by discovering unknown designers and giving them a shot at success.
Some of the finalists' of the ninth season showed they clearly got the fashion memo on what established designers are showing, by flooding the runway with neon pink, and backless dresses.
The first look on the runway from Laura Kathleen sent a strong message with bronzed metal paillettes carrying out a warrior theme.
Anya Ayoung Chee drew on her Caribbean background to create clothes with a cool and feminine feel.
The cool kaleidoscope took another turn when New Yorker Kimberly Goldson, showed her collection.
One of her standout looks included a long flowing gown with strong colors which looked elegant and comfortable.
The finale, which will be aired in October, will feature only a handful of the nine finalists who showed their collections, and only one will walk away a winner.
