Four former Project Runway All Stars come together to give a tribute to the late Mychael Knight for one night on the world's biggest fashion stage to honor their friend.
NEW YORK, Aug. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- On Sunday, September 9, 2018, fashion fans and industry insiders are anxiously anticipating "The MKKM Experience." The event is a Project Runway All Stars tribute to the late Mychael Knight, curated by Project Runway All Stars finalist, Korto Momolu. Mychael, affectionately known as the "Fashion King," was a finalist and fan favorite on Project Runway Season 3. He was also invited to compete in the prestigious Project Runway All Stars.
The event will be held at the Stewart Hotel NYC (371 7th Avenue) at 8:00 P.M. Hosted by Peach Carr (All Stars Season 2 and Project Runway 8) and Guy Lambert, TV/Radio Personality and Co-Host of the DL Hughley Podcast (The Hughley Truth).
During last year's spring/summer season, Mychael with his best friend and former castmate, Korto Momolu embarked on a partnership celebrating the past, acknowledging the present, and foraging the future. Unfortunately, Mychael passed away a little over a month after he unveiled his final collection in New York.
Joining the tribute along with Korto are Christopher Palu (All Stars Season 3 and Project Runway 10); Kimberly Goldson (All Stars Season 6 and Project Runway 9); Edmond Newton (All Stars Season 6 and Project Runway 14).
On this night, in New York City, the world's metropolis of style will focus on the thousands of supporters for these accomplished and talented fashion designers. Korto's collection will feature an array of styles in an all-white presentation which is Mychael's favorite color. Mychael's collection will be provided by his family. His presentation will show his love for American women's sportswear. It's his grown-up take on "Athleisure." The event is open to the public to see Mychael's final run on the New York fashion stage.
Cole Stevens Salon (Washington, DC) will serve as the Official Hair Design Team and Title Sponsor. This is a brand that transcends traditional styling techniques for textured hair, and the company is led by Diane Stevens, Nioxin Top Artist and Owner.
Additionally, this season, "The MKKM Experience" will also partner with Inglot Cosmetics, an international makeup brand, to serve as the Makeup and Cosmetics sponsor. "I'm honored and thrilled to partner with "The MKKM Experience" to bring this vision to life. Along with having makeup products of the highest pigmentation, Inglot Cosmetics is about giving back and creating partnerships that aim to grow women's empowerment and leadership." A statement by Kenya Pierce, Co-President, and COO of Voulez Beauté, who owns the Tyson Corner Center (VA) U.S. flagship store.
