You gotta love a good crossover moment between two hit shows. It even works in the reality realm!
The TV Fanatic has learned that some of our fave designers from Project Runway of seasons past will make a cameo on Top Design, season two.
First and second season alum Daniel Franco, second season alums Santino Rice and Andre Gonzalo, third season winner Jeffrey Sebelia and fourth season finalist Sweet P will all appear on the series.
The Design contestants will be challenged to create a room based on a garment from one of these former Runway designers.
I’m expecting spot-on impressions of Todd Oldham, a profession of love to new host India Hicks, some serious insulting of the contestants’ moms and lots of crying.
Top Design, season 2, premieres Wednesday, Sept. 3 at 10 p.m. on Bravo.

For the past several years punk rock Project Runway winner Jeffery Sebelia’s been outfitting celebs like Gwen Stefani and Tommy Lee with his edgy couture Cosa Nostra line. This fall, the 37-year-old L.A.-based designer launches his eponymous Jeffrey Sebelia collection — geared toward a younger audience. The line offers fans of Sebelia’s outrageous style the opportunity to cop his look at a fraction of Cosa Nostra’s cost.
The collection of 100 or so pieces is influenced, says Sebelia, by one of his favorite film heroines — Beatrice Dalle from the ’80s flick Betty Blue. Dalle’s playful, eclectic look is reflected in the line’s ruffled skirts, baggy blouses and ’40s-inspired silk dresses.
Sebelia hopes to see his collection in a range of retail locations in the coming months. Check back next week for an exclusive interview with Jeffrey — only in OK!
