It's Sew Time
Tuesday, 06 November 2007

A new season of "Project Runway" begins this month.

By: Mitra Asgarinik

 

For the fashion obssessed, Wednesday nights will be spent glued to the television screen once again beginning November 14th. Bravo's Emmy nominated reality show, "Project Runway", starts its fourth season this month. If you have not been up to date with the hit show, "Runway" features 15 designers who battle it out to sew the top fashion garments.

 

Each episode poses a common themed ?challenge? for the designers, in which they have a certain amount of time, money to spend on materials, and guidelines to follow. The designers are guided by former chair of the fashion department at Parsons and current chief creative officer at Liz Claiborne, Tim Gunn. Each episode a winner and a loser are chosen, and the loser gets cut from the show. The season finale showcases the top three designers at New York Fashion Week and the top designer is chosen to be the winner of Project Runway. The winner is awarded $100,000 to start their own fashion line, their own section on Bluefly.com, a spread in Elle, and a hot 2008 Saturn Astra.

 

The show is hypnotic, and I find myself diving for the remote when I get home so I can watch the newest episode. Viewers develop emotions for each of the competing designers, and half the fun of watching is the anticipation of your favorite designer winning the episode and the snotty designer losing. If you are interested in fashion, then ?Project Runway? is the show for you. The show routinely is judged by Heidi Klum along with designer Michael Kors, Elle fashion director Nina Garcia, and a guest judge who is usually a known designer, but is sometimes a fashion icon. The show is full of fresh new designs that could influence the forecasts for upcoming seasons, and constantly inspires a new wardrobe collection. Catch the new season, watch the designers ?make it work?, and get insight on new fashions.

Can?t wait until the season premiers? Check out Bravotv.Com for more ?Project Runway? info and bios for the season four designers.
