Project Runway Review Summary

Hosted by Heidi Klum, Project Runway is a reality show on the Bravo Network with contestants competing to design the best clothes while dealing with limitations imposed by the host. Project Runway breaks from the pack of reality shows in that, "It's not your typical reality show like so many that gets focused on the personalities of the contestants and the drama between them." Instead, it focuses on fashion. Popular because it appeals to both sexes, "It's about art and creativity and design and both men and women can enjoy that.. There is also the competitive nature that attracts viewers, as"The outfits are judged in a runway show, and the loser has to go home while the winner usually gets immunity and can not be eliminated from the next challenge. The vast majority of reviewers say, "yes!" to Project Runway

Project Runway is one of the very very few shows I make it a point to watch every single week.  It's the only show except Monday Night Football that my husband could tell you what night and time it airs.  It's that addictive.

It's not your typical reality show like so many that gets focused on the personalitys...

I have been a big fan of project runway since the beginning so naturally when the new season rolled in I was excited. Unfortunately, I find myself not really into this season for some reason, even though the designers are talented I find them a bit boring and are not getting my attention. I'm hoping... review »

Supermodel Heidi Klum hosts Bravo's "Project Runway". T

his reality show puts designers into a house and places them in clothing challenges. It's fun to see how they create a concept from scratch, run to the fabric store with $200, sew their own creations, give the hair and makeup input to the stylists and admire their garments on the runway. To them, fashion is art. Now, I'm not the snazziest dresser, but I can appreciate and love the designs. The challenges are exciting to see where the draw inspiration - one that stands out was they had to choose a style icon and create an outfit to match - some...

Project Runway is a Bravo Channel original reality show where fashion designers compete for a fashion week spot, a monetary reward and the title of top designer. The host, Hiedi Klum is also a producer of the show. Tim Gunn is the mentor and guide for the contestants, while Nina Garcia and Michael Korrs join Hiedi in judging the designs. The contestants are given a multitude of challenges, from creating a look based on their individual style to making a couture dress out of car parts, that must be executed in the time alloted, often 24 to 48 hours. Some challenges are in groups while others are...

I can't stand reality shows.  People thrown together into artificial situations for no reason besides my "entertainment"--that idea makes my skin crawl.  I love Project Runway, because although it is people thrown together into an artificial situation, they are all good at something I cannot do.  I love watching them make beautiful (or impressively ugly) clothes every week, I love watching the creative personalities clash (or work together in surprising ways), I love watching the judges tear apart the clothing on the runway, and I love Tim Gunn with all my heart.  The fact that the show remains... review »

    Project Runway is now in its 4th season and the designers are as talented, crazy and individual as in the past.  If you have never seen this show - you don't know what you are missing! Each week fashion designers create an outfit based on what the challenge is.  The outfits are judged in a runway show, and the loser has to go home while the winner usually gets immunity and can not be eliminated from the next challenge.  This immunity is not granted when the show gets closer to the end and only a few contestants are left.

   The designers are guided by Tim Gunn, a fashion expert who always...

Although you wouldn't know it to look at me, I've always been a frustrated fashion designer but I can't sew and would never have the patience.  I am very creative though and I think this show appeals to people on so many levels; Creativity, reality show, personalities and drama etc..  I love seeing what people come up with for the challanges and kind of play along.  This is one of few reality shows that actually depends on the person's skill and goes by some pretty strict rules that the contestants have to abide by.

This is by far my favorite TV show.  I have to admit I am an avid reality show watcher, but this show is the best.  It not only combines challenges of the contestants, but you also get to learn about their personalities and take sides with those you want to win and those that you are just hoping fail.  The premise of the show is to take a group of designers and fashion lovers who are dreaming to be discovered and highlighted on the cover of a magazine.  Each week you are not only subjected to the constant drama between contestants, but also get to watch unique challenges.  Just this week they... review »

I love the show Project Runway. I did not see it the first couple of seasons but have been a advit fan for the last few. It amazes me what they make every week. I love watching alot of reality shows and this is definetly one of my favorite. Last weeks was amazing. What they did out of newspaper was mindblowing. Half of the outfits you couldnt even tell it was newspaper. I wish I had that kind of talent. I find myself fighting with the judges alot because some times I think they kick the wrong people off but most of the time they get it right. If you love fashion and reality tv you will love this...

Project Runway

One of my faves, it has a little bit of everything you could want in reality TV.

Creativity, drama and drama queens, lots of attitude, real feelings and a lot more.

The shows hosts Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum are perfect at what they do. Gunn in his inimitable way is somewhat fatherly, somewhat best friendy and all business at the same time. Klum is adorable with her German accent and her Auf Wiedersehens and double cheek kisses when a designer is voted off the show.

I absolutely love when Gunn does his 'designers gather round' bit, and then takes them shopping for fabrics at MOOD with...

Project Runway is a reality show where designers have to design an outfit each week.  The challenge is usually based upon a certain client type or a particular fabric or theme.  The best designer of the week gains immunity for the next challenge and the worst designer is eliminated.  I love to see the quirky outfits the designers come up with and all the workroom drama between the contestants.  My favorite part of the show is Tim Gunn.  He always seems amazed(and not necessarily in a good way!) with what the designers are creating.  But even though he has a look of horror, he always try's...

Project runway had a masters show preceding the seasons premier all the stand out contestants from the last few seasons were there and it was great.  santino was in fine form and chris was there, although i'm not sure why korto made the cut she seems to have a piss poor attitude.  sweet pea was back and the one who won the challenge was daniel who has definetly grown since he was on the show and he was also so grateful  for his win.  i think that santino and chris should team up with michael p from the next food network star show and form a company i think they would make an amazing team and...

So, let's start by addressing the sound bite...  On one of the first episodes this season, the contestants all had to make menswear with generally horrible results.  Michael Kors, one of the judges and an incredible designer himself, says, "The crotch on those pants is insane!"

I was laughing hysterically (this isn't a comedy, by the way) and even my husband was amused.  He now watches Project Runnway with me!

I love seeing creativity at work.  The designers all have outstanding ideas and they are funny to boot.  I am not inclined to design or sew, so I think that is why I am stunned with the...

Project Runway is, in my opinion, the best "reality" show on television.  First of all, I LOVE fashion and seeing the next big thing, which is exactly what project runway is about.  The characters are always fun to watch, since fashion people are notoriously eccentric.  You will see everything from featherd phoenixes flapping down the runway to graceful glittering gowns worthy of the oscars.  I have yet to have a favorite win the show, but I'm still holding out hope!  If nothing else, it's worth it just to see Heidi Klum and the beautiful and sometimes extremely odd outfits and styles she... review »

I love Project Runway. I tried to never miss it. I also record all the shows on DVR. I also watch those I have already seen. There is always something I missed the first time. I like some of the designers more than others. I loved Michael from last season and read about his sucess in Eboney Mag. He is doing great even tho he did not win last season. I love it that the designers personality is shown. Each one is so different. They all are great. I used to sew and make clothes for my children when they were in school and yet I am always amazed by the outfits they come up with. I love Tim and always... review »

Project Runway is one of my favorite shows! In many reality shows, you only have drama, but with PR you also have beautiful clothes that make you really appreciate the challengers' skills while marvelling at their insanity. This show makes for truly great entertainment, and once you start watching, you can't help but be hooked. Besides the contestants, there are also the hilariously cute cast - Tim Gunn, Heidi Klum, Michael Kors, and Nina Garcia each have their own quirks that set this show apart from the rest of the pack. I find that I can't help waiting for the next season, and the next, and... review »
