Seth Aaron Henderson

Seth Aaron Henderson (born July 11, 1971) is the winner of the seventh season of Project Runway along with his model, Kristina Sajko.[1][2]

Seth Aaron also filled in for Tim Gunn as the head "casting judge" on Season 9 of Project Runway.[3] Continuing his commitment to a sustainable future, Seth Aaron's designs feature organic fabrics and those made from recyclable plastic bottles.[4] His 2010 Portland Fashion Week collection was sponsored and inspired by Solar World, a manufacturer of solar panels in Oregon, Henderson's home state.[5]

Henderson's show at Portland Fashion Week in October 2011 also featured sustainable fabrics.[6] He is collaborating with the New Hampshire-based Earthtec clothing company to create a sustainable line of clothing to be sold by an "as yet unnamed national retail chain".[7][8]

In 2012, Henderson custom-designed a dress for eminent philosopher Martha Nussbaum, who was being honored by Felipe VI of Spain with the Prince of Asturias Award.[9]

In 2013, Henderson became a contestant on Project Runway: All Stars (season 3).[10] In 2014, he was announced the winner of the season; he is the first to win both Project Runway and Project Runway: All Stars.[11] As part of his prize package, Henderson launched a collection on QVC later that year.[12][13][14]

The two-time Project Runway winner is collaborating with Feetz to launch the world’s first 3D printed designer shoe line at FashioNXT Week on Oct 13th.[15]

He lives in Vancouver, Washington, with his wife, Tina, and two children, Aaron and Megan.
