FOR AUCTION
The Clothes Off Our Back Foundation is a 501c3 organization that hosts charity auctions showcasing today's hottest celebrity attire. Items are put up for bid to the public with proceeds going to benefit children's charities. Clothes Off Our Back was founded by actors and philanthropists Jane Kaczmarek ("Malcolm In The Middle") and Bradley Whitford ("The West Wing") whose efforts, along with their celebrity and designer friends have helped improve the lives of children across the globe.

You're so incredibly talented and I can't tell you how upset my friends and I were last Wednesday. Santino's jumpsuit was ridiculous. It was pulling like crazy.; 5:23 PM
Christopher in Sacramento said...: Dear Nick,

This cause seems quite worthwhile. Thank you for posting that! Also, thanks so much for displaying so much class - not just on last weeks episode - but throughout the whole production.

You were by far our favorite, and we'll miss you. Keep the blogs coming.; 6:02 PM

I just wanted to send out some love and wanted to tell you that everyone where I worked was so sad that you were out. And much like everyone else we do say that you were so robbed!!! I loved your work every episode. So much that I would only wish that one day I could have the honor of wearing a dress you design.. like ... at my wedding (whenever that day comes I'm gonna try my best to look you up). I definately love your stuff and will be keeping my eye out for it whenever I'm on the west coast.

Lots of Love

It's nice to you that you are still doing amazing things!!! I am sooooooo excited to see you on the reunion show next week. I am sure you got some good lines towards some of the cast. I just got done watching the episode with Emon. Again Santino skates by again, why is he still there? Clearly publicity, but no one likes his designs......cRaZy!!!! Keep up the good work, hope to see you around NYC....:)

John Spomer said...: Nick, I wanted to say that you were my favorite designer for this whole season of Project Runway... and you were by far the hottest, too! I don't usually go for guys who are older than me, but you are hot with a capital H-O-T-T! I love your designs, and I wish you the best in your (obviously stellar) career.

(By the way, I think it's awesome you were born in St. Louis... it's my home town!); 8:34 PM
Erin said...: Nick,
I just wanted to say that you are an amazing person, and you seem like the nicest, sweetest person in the world, and you seem very approachable and warm towards everyone. You are also (of course) an amazingly talented designer. Of course I do not know you personally and only know what I have seen on t.v. and from what you write on your blog and whatnot, but I think that you are amazing. I just wanted to tell you to please never change and stay sweet and warm and approachable - there are too few people like you in the world. You are so loveable. I wish you all the happiness and success in the world.; 9:11 PM
Kane said...: Nick,

As I watched the last PR episode prior to the Fashion Week finale, I wondered what your gown would've looked like had you stayed in the competition. Then, I realized I already had a good idea, since I (and millions of other people) had already seen a gorgeous gown of yours at a red carpet event. I'm so glad that you were able to have that prominent opportunity before the finale of PR.

And while Brenda Strong is not Iman, she certainly has a runway model's height and a body to kill for, and you both made each other look so amazing.

Most heartening for me was the sense that your gown for Ms. Strong was very much in keeping with your style and your strengths, and you created glamour and simplicity with a point of view much better than your fellow contestants. I have no doubt that if you had stayed in the competition, Iman would have chosen your dress.

That said, you still scored a coup, on your own terms, with your own talent, and gained some very loyal fans and followers.
