Project Runway Season Six

Eleanthe Anderson
Season six of the hit fashion design show Project Runway is schedule to begin airing this fall, with the first episode scheduled for August 20th. The show has moved from Bravo to the myLifetime network. Although Project Runway has moved to a new channel, it will maintain the same format that it had in previous seasons. The show will still be hosted by Heidi Klum, and the designer's mentor Tim Gunn is staying as well.

Project Runway Season Six: The New Project Runway Website

For more information about the sixth season of Project Runway, take a look at the myLifetime website. The website features a clock that is counting down the minutes and seconds until the season premiere airs. It also features a lot of background information on the fashion designers that we haven't seen in previous seasons. These feature biographies of the contestants, along with video of their interviews, their portfolios and sketchbooks, and more.

Project Runway Season Six: Changes for Season Six

A few new elements have been added to the sixth season of Project Runway. One of these is that each designer will receive a detailed critique of their work by Tim Gunn. He will now evaluate every design on every episode. More attention will also be given to the creative process and the designer's sketches. Judging will also be ramped up, with extended evaluations and critiques.

The new changes should add a little extra pizzazz to an already fierce competition. Tune in to the myLifetime channel on August 20th to see premiere episode of Project Runway Season six.
