Alexandria poured herself into this collection and made clothes that women want to wear.Īfter a tough deliberation, the judges named Dom Streater the winner of Project Runway season 12! But her materials look rich and easy to wear. Probably because it was the only hint of color in the collection. The collared vest paired with the ruffle-y skirt seemed out of place, though.
