Fashion Runway Show

The models that wear the clothing on the runway each week also compete during the show. They sit through hours of hair and make-up after spending time being dressed by the designers. In some challenges, like the swimsuit one, the models have to be good sports because the tiny pieces of clothing are very revealing and uncomfortable. Each week a designer selects a model for the next challenge and the last model is eliminated.

The first season set the bar high when it aired on Bravo, transmitted by satellite TV into homes across America. Host and judge Heidi Klum was joined by Michael Kors and Nina Garcia, along with a guest judge that changed each week. The participants were all colorful characters with creative and unique styles. More and more viewers tuned in each week as word spread about 'Project Runway.' It was even nominated for an Emmy for outstanding competitive reality series.

The twelve designers compete each week in a unique challenge. Some are relatively straightforward, such as the 'Innovation' or 'Swimsuit' episodes. However, each has limitations about what materials can be used and a unique twist. In the Banana Republic challenge, the designers must make outfits that fit with the brand. The winner is Wendy, one of the designers who just did not get along well with the rest, particularly in the last weeks of the competition.
