Designing garments exclusively using eco-friendly fabrics was the challenge for this week's episode of Project Runway and being a life long vegetarian myself, I was excited that Runway decided to give attention to a subject that is not only timely but also necessary for our future. To kick things off, Tim Gunn arrives to give the twist on this week’s challenge, and what a twist it was: the models had to choose the fabric for their designers and walk the runway!
