Project Runway - Sew Good!

It is that time of year. The new season of Project Runway is starting on Bravo tonight at 9 pm (CDT). There are few reality shows out there that display truly talented and artistic people. This show is my absolute favorite reality show ever. It beats bachelor Brad, Amazing Race and Dancing with the Stars by a million.

If you have been living in a cave or possibly don't get the Bravo network on your TV, Project Runway is a reality show involving up and coming fashion designers in the US. Fifteen designers are given design tasks weekly with a myriad of twists and challenges. My favorite task each season is the recycle challenge where designers must make an outfit out of recycled goods - curtains, trash bags, aluminium foil - you name it, it's been done. The designers are given limited time to design, sew and fit a model for a runway show that happens at the end of each task.

Critiquing each runway show are the likes of Nina Garcia (fashion editor at Elle), Michael Kors (no need to explain), a guest judge and the ever beautiful host, Heidi Klum. Every week I am always more and more amazed by the talent and artistry that these people embody. It isn't a platform for the rude, beautiful, bitchy girl that seems to be high on reality TV talent scout lists. It is a place for talented artist to make their TV debut. Don't get my wrong, the show has its handful of divas. They're just usually not the girls!

Tune in. I promise you won't be disappointed. http://www.bravotv.com/Project_Runway/season/4/bios/index.php
