Faith Hill judges Project Runway finale

"Faith Hill stepped into the toughest Project Runway guest judging seat of the season - the finale, which made her a deciding voice in naming the winner," said 'Runway' Executive Producer Sara Rea. "She took on the task with flying colors. Faith was invested and took the job seriously. She gave constructive, relevant criticism and had a strong point of view. We really enjoyed having her."

Hill flew to New York City Feb. 10. She attended the finale fashion show two days later along with Project Runway host Heidi Klum and judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia.

After seeing 10 'Runway' designers' collections, (10 designers had the opportunity to show at Bryant Park to throw off those in attendance from knowing who the identities of the 3 finalists), Hill, Klum, Garcia and Kors went to an undisclosed location in New York City, where the judges deliberations was filmed and a winner for season seven was chosen.

"What I saw was truly extraordinary and it made judging very difficult," Hill said. "All of the designers were creative and imaginative. But there were some whose craftsmanship was impeccable. Designers by trade are always capable of sewing their own clothing, but the tailoring that I saw was extremely impressive; a few in particular knocked me out. The passion that these individuals showed, and their eagerness to learn from feedback and criticism, should prove an inspiration for those that follow them."

Hill returned to Nashville following the taping to continue work on her forthcoming studio recording.
