PALMDALE To conclude its fashion competition ‘Project Style’, Antelope Valley Mall will host the Style Off Finale on Saturday, Sept. 24 where Nick Verreos, best known for his recurring appearances on the reality TV show Project Runway, will appear as a guest host.

Verreos has dressed celebrities such as Beyonce, Katy Perry, Carrie Underwood, Heidi Klum and Eva Longoria and has sold his line, NIKOLAKI, in more than 100 stores all across the US, Japan, and Latin America.

His other fashion claims to fame include his roles as a red carpet fashion expert on TV Guide’s LIVE Academy Awards Red Carpet; TV Guide’s Red Carpet Fashion Wrap, including the Oscars, Golden Globes, Emmys and Grammys; E! Countdown to the Academy Awards and SoapNet’s Emmy Awards Red Carpet Coverage.

Antelope Valley Mall’s ‘Project Style’ competition began in May.  It encouraged self-proclaimed stylists from the Antelope Valley, ages 13 and up, to select the best fashion-forward attire from Antelope Valley Mall and combine it into a single trendy outfit. Contestants were each given a $150 mall gift card to pick out their trend-setting apparel and submit a short video of their selections to Shoptopia.com. From there, the finalists were chosen by Shoptopia members who voted online each day for their favorites.

The top five finalists will compete one last time in the Style Off Finale, where one “Top Trendsetter” will win a $1,000 shopping spree. To learn more about the top five AV Mall finalists, go to www.antelope.shoptopia.com/project-style and become a member.
