After more than 15 designers showcasing their garments for three days on the runway, there are just two designers left to show their wares today, Saturday, the last day of FashionNXT. 

Walter Mendez 

Up-and-coming Los Angeles designer Walter Mendez is returning to the FashionNXT runway, bringing plenty of texture and timeless styles fit for Hollywood stars. Mendez has designed gowns for celebs like singer Mel B. and public figure Sarah Stage. Get ready to see black and white cocktail dresses and hand-beaded nude mesh gowns swish down the runway.

Michael Costello

"Project Runway" and "Project Runway All Stars" alum Michael Costello designs lace and silk dresses with plunging v-necks as well as nude, sheer, exposed-back lingerie. Celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Kesha, and entertainment reporter Diana Madison have donned his gowns for the American Music Awards, Grammy Awards and for steppin' out on the town in L.A. 

After the show, make sure to checkout the after party at 1139 NW Couch St. (formerly PF Chang's), where you can meet the designers and take plenty of photos.
