Heads-up to Project Runway fans. If you've watched the weekend marathons, commented on the blog and stalked Chloe Dao, cease, desist and head to the Heinen Theatre for a live display of works by up-and-coming couturiers. At "J'dore Le Catwalk!" students from Houston Community College's Fashion Design and Merchandising programs will dispatch models down the runway in cutting-edge attire, so you can see what they've learned in classes like custom patterns, advanced draping and couture dressmaking. But this certainly isn't amateur hour: The models are pros, the music will be bumpin', and at the end of the night, the top designers will win awards and scholarships. Play Heidi Klum at 7 p.m.
