Even we were a little nervous going into last night's episode of Project Runway. Why? The designers were tasked with creating a look to be worn by our very own fashion director Nina Garcia — probably the toughest judge of them all. (I mean, who doesn't remember Tim Gunn's express warning from seasons' past: "Don't. Bore. Nina.")

Even guest judges Kerry Washington and Joanna Coles, our editor-in-chief, weren't impressed with a lot of the looks.

"If Nina came to the office in this," Joanna said, "I would think that she was asking to be fired."

Yikes!

Still, it wasn't all shock and awe. Here, Nina gave us an inside look into her week with the designers. For even more pictures, visit Nina's Facebook page!
