From "Runway" to the "Jungle"
Salt Lake City designer Keith Bryce finally broke from the pack on Bravo's "Project Runway," winning a challenge that will put one of his designs on prime-time TV.

On Wednesday night's show, the 12 remaining contestants were challenged to design an outfit for Brooke Shields' character on the NBC series "Lipstick Jungle" - a professional woman who works both in the boardroom and in the evening social scene. Each of the 12 presented their sketches to Shields, who chose six designs to be sewn - including Bryce's.

The six chosen designers then paired up with the remaining six to produce the dresses. Bryce was paired with Bettie Page-lookalike Kenley Collins to create a chocolate-colored layered skirt with a floral-print top (pictured at left).

Bryce's dress won the round, and the dress will be worn by Shields in an upcoming episode of "Lipstick Jungle." (Yes, Bravo is owned by NBC Universal - how did you guess?)

Bryce - who owns the Salt Lake boutique Filthy Gorgeous - shouldn't rest on his laurels. As host Heidi Klum points out, "in fashion, one day you're in, the next day you're out." The designer who got eliminated, Kelli Martin, won the season's first challenge of designing an outfit based on supermarket products.
