Project Runway’s Nina Garcia Out of One Job
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Gossip, News, Rumors,
Just last week, we reported that Project Runway was making a big move from its old home at Bravo to Lifetime. This week, we’re learning that one of the show’s judges may be out of a job. At least the one she does off-camera.
Women’s Wear Daily has reported that Nina Garcia, “fashion director at Elle”, is no longer working for the magazine her name’s been associated with. This move comes not-so-coincidentally after a new creative director was brought on board.
What this currently means for Garcia’s future with the hit reality show is unknown. Neither she or Michael Kors have yet committed to the series’ next installment.
Be looking for Project Runway‘s fifth season to hit the catwalk this
summer.

Project Runway Leaves Bravo
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, News,
I guess we won’t be tuning into Bravo to ‘watch what happens’ on Project Runway anymore.
While everyone has been busy wondering whether Scrubs would jump ship to ABC, another big deal was being brokered over in cable-land. Come this fall, we will have to program in a new channel on our DVRs: the Lifetime channel.
In a surprise move, The Weinstein Co. has made a five-year deal with the female-oriented network to start airing the hit reality show come this November. Needless to say, NBC (Bravo’s parent company) is not pleased with this decision. The company has filed suit in a desperate attempt to keep their ratings cash cow in place.
The program about fashion designers - hosted by Heidi Klum - will be heading into its sixth season at the end of this year.

Christian Siriano Wins Project Runway Season 4
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Editorial, News,
Christian Siriano is officially kind of a big deal tonight. The 21-year-old freelance fashion designer accomplished two major goals: his collection won Project Runway: Season 4 and he made guest judge Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham smile. In fact, the usually enigmatic pop star told Siriano she’d love to wear anything he designed.
It is no secret that Season 4 of Project Runway lacked the drama and suspense of past years. There was no big twist in the final show either- no extra “look” to cobble together in the 11th hour, no scandals involving outside sewing help and no shouting matches between fellow designers. But what the show lacked in reality TV drama it more than made up for in sophistication and style. Each of the three remaining designers offered something new and fresh to the usually jaded fashion world.

Project Runway Season 4: Chris March Eliminated By A Hair, Literally
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Editorial, News,
An innovative use of safety pins and hair, yes human hair, just weren’t enough to land San Francisco costume designer Chris March the third and final spot in the Project Runway: Season 4 final runway show.
The 44-year-old March was up against 31-year-old Los Angeles designer Rami Kashou in a sort of semi-final walk-off before the last official runway show, the big one at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City’s Bryant Park. Freelance fashion wunderkind Christian Soriano and Ralph Lauren illustrator Jillian Lewis already secured their spots during the “Art to Fashion” challenge in episode 11.
Tonight’s episode began with a rundown of the final challenge and a reminder of what’s at stake if they win. The final challenge had the designers creating a 12-piece collection. They got $8000 for materials and 5 months to complete their garments. The winner of Project Runway: Season 4 gets a coveted spread in Elle magazine, $100,000, a Saturn Astra and a chance to sell their line on Bluefly.com.

Project Runway Season 4: Sweet P Says Goodbye
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Editorial, Features,
There was a major twist on last night’s Project Runway Season 4 on Bravo. The last runway show before the remaining designers compete at New York Fashion Week produced two clear finalists: Christian Siriano and Jillian Lewis. The third finalist is still undecided.
The judges were deadlocked over whether to go with Chris March or Rami Kashou, so they decided to let both designers create their final collections for Fashion Week. Right before the actual runway show (which, of course, has already happened), the judges will rate Chris and Rami’s three strongest pieces to decide which designer is the official, third finalist.
Unfortunately, this episode was the last hurrah for Kathleen “Sweet P” Vaughn.

‘Project Runway’ Finale: Posh Sees Clear Winner
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo,
Project Runway: Season 4 fanatics will have to wait a few more weeks to find out which designer won the big prize. But people who saw the remaining contestants’ final runway shows on the last day of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City say it should be well worth the wait.
The only spoiler provided in the Bryant Park tents Friday was who will serve as the season finale guest judge: Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham.
The 1000 or so fashionistas in the crowd are none the wiser on who the finalists actually are. Since there are still two more episodes before the two-part season finale, all five remaining designers sent their collections down the runway. Two served as decoys to throw off the crowd. When the finale airs you’ll only see the three finalists’ collections.
Guest judge Victoria Beckham, a style icon known for making bold choices and setting major trends (i.e. the asymmetrical bob), said she saw a clear winner in the pack. Of the designer Beckham considers the best she says, “everything I saw I would wear myself”.
So what were the collections like? Insiders say the designers expanded on what they were already known for during Project Runway: Season 4.

Project Runway: Season 4: ‘Raw Talent’
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Features,
What is the polar opposite of high fashion? I’m guessing professional wrestling after watching tonight’s episode of Project Runway on Bravo. Tonight’s challenge had the six remaining designers creating a look for the Divas of WWE. (That stands for World Wrestling Entertainment for the uninitiated.)
This challenge took the lingerie and figure skating challenges of seasons past to a whole new and tackier level. You don’t need a degree from Parsons to know that under the best of circumstances it is hard to make spandex, stretchy lace and rhinestones classy or wearable.
Despite the violence they inflict in the ring, the Divas of WWE seem like fairly nice gals. They requested outfits that best showcased their wrestling alter egos… like the sexy tomboy or sexy gold digger or my favorite: the classy sexpot.

‘Project Runway’ Premiere Date
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo,
After months of waiting, Bravo has officially announced the premiere date for Project Runway. The 4th season will begin November 14th.
Why they strangely chose a start date so close to the holidays is unfortunately not mentioned on their website. Nevertheless, I’m just grateful it’s finally returning. (Can you believe it’s been over a year since the last season premiered?)
And don’t panic. Despite rumors he might not return, Tim Gunn will be around to critique the new designers (along with Heidi Klum, Michael Kors and Nina Garcia).
