*From “Project Runway” to your closet? That’s the path for a version of Victorya Hong’s winning dress from Wednesday’s episode. It will be available as early as Friday as part of Sarah Jessica Parker’s Bitten line, sold at Steve & Barry’s stores nationwide. The “Sex and the City” star was the week’s guest judge on Bravo’s reality fashion show. The challenge put to the aspiring designer contestants was to create an outfit appropriate for Parker’s casual sportswear collection, known for its lower prices compared with other celebrity clothing lines. The Bitten interpretation of the dress will be offered in black or burgundy for $19.98 and the vest in gray or black for $14.98.
*CNN’s Nancy Grace took her son John David home from the hospital Wednesday. “She is praying that Lucy Elizabeth comes home soon too,” her rep told People. Grace, 48, gave birth to the twins Nov. 4, an early delivery because she had developed a pulmonary edema.
*Brad Pitt has pulled out of Universal’s political thriller “State of Play” because of script concerns, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Pitt and director Kevin Macdonald had been meeting for a couple of weeks to try to resolve the issues. But the script cannot be worked on because of the writers strike.
