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 Has a Date with Posh Spice
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Gossip, News
Were any of you wondering about Victoria Beckham’s comments on Project Runway the other night? Would she really wear Christian Siriano‘s designs…or was she just paying him lip service?
Well, it seems Posh Spice was being totally sincere. Or, at the very least, she’s willing to talk to Siriano again. In an interview with People, the 21-year-old winner revealed that he already has appointment to see Beckham very soon.
“I’ll be seeing her next week, so I made her a few dresses. Hopefully she likes them, so we’ll see how it goes. After the filming, we chatted and she really said some amazing things. And it’s such an honor because she can wear any designer she wants.”

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 Reunion: Christian Named Fan Favorite
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Editorial
Apparently it pays to remind people over and over that ‘you’re fierce and kind of a big deal’. That strategy netted Project Runway:Season 4 contestant Christian Siriano a cool $10,000. Siriano was voted this season’s “Fan Favorite” by a landslide. The results were unveiled during tonight’s Project Runway: Season 4 reunion show.
This season of the show featured some incredibly talented and professional designers. While it didn’t have the same sexy mix of volatile characters (see Wendy Pepper in season 1 or Santino Rice in season 2), the clothes themselves were fascinating as was watching the process that these talented designers used to come up with them. Not surprisingly, some of the designers have become role models for young children and even favorites of celebrities. Kit talked about how young girls are emailing her scans of their designs to ask for advice. She says she loves being a positive influence. Lovable kook Elisa also said she loves the message she seems to be sending young girls that it is okay to be different. Sweet P, who was eliminated in the last episode, said she’s heard from celebrities like Jack Black and Catherine Keener that she was their favorite on the show.

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: 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.
