A fan favorite from her “Project Runway” days. She’s still using her favorite fabric– jersey, but innovating this year by incorporating environmentally sound fabric—organic cotton. Her best works were hombre evening gowns that she dyed the fabric for. Imagine going to an event in a gown that’s actually a fancy tee. Plus, you can say it’s by Gerdes. What can we say, but she’s our Katy.

About Sara: Golden Valley native Sara Glassman lived and worked in New York City for eight years, but is happy to be sussing out style on Hennepin Ave. instead of Park Ave. While she was far from best dressed in high school, she found her passion for fashion as an art history major at Yale and more directly while searching for "real style" in high schools across the country for Seventeen magazine.
Sara's style: Dresses.
Favorite designers: Marc Jacobs, Phillip Lim and Diane von Furstenberg (today, anyway).
Style philosophy: If you love it, wear it!
