The gayest show on Australian television had its climax this week when flamboyant Melbourne designer Anthony Capon took out the title as the winner of the second season of Project Runway Australia.

Capon turned heads from the start with his penchant for wearing women's clothes, his outrageous designs and his out-of-the-box thinking. Capon often wore high heels and skirts on the show, talking up the benefits of wearing skirt . "They're more comfortable, they have more movement in the legs, and if you've got good legs you might as well show them off," he told the Herald Sun. "For me, you still have to have hairy legs, you don't do it to look feminine, I think that's the whole thing about it."
