A new designer has snagged the Project Runway crown! And said designer is a groundbreaking choice for the fashion competition. If you don't want to know which of the final four hopefuls is following in the footsteps of Christian Siriano, Dmitry Sholokhov and the 11 other previous title-holders, look away!
Ready? Congratulations are in order for Ashley Nell Tipton, the plus-size designer who beat out Candice Cuoco, Kelly Dempsey and Edmond Newton with a revolutionary collection never before seen on the show. That's right, the San Diego, Calif. resident, who sent an entirely plus size collection down the catwalk, was crowned the winner.
"I would describe my style as having fun and being funky, showing your personality through your clothing and having fun with it," Tipton told E! News ahead of the first part of the finale. "That's what I love to design—I love to design the clothing that is not out there for your average plus size woman, and I want to fill in the gap of that industry and not design cookie cutter things."
