Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on July 15, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Kelli Martin! From dazzling Tim Gunn on Project Runway's unforgettable fifth season to stitching together styles that scream chic and confidence, your designs always make heads turn faster than a supermodel at fashion week. Even Heidi Klum knows she never had it so good!

Through every stitch you've sewn since then—launching new collections or inspiring aspiring designers—you continue weaving elegance with flair (and impeccable wit!). May this birthday be as fierce as the runway walks you create and filled with more glamourous surprises than sequins in a sewing room disaster.

Keep rocking needles and threads—as only you can!
