^yep, it was aired. You see Cintia for a few seconds, and then you see Kara and Jay arguing a little over who gets to use her.

Sweet! Now I have an another excuse to splurge poor college student funds for the Season 1 DVD set (Will there be one? I think so but I'm not sure anymore). Or I can just tape the finale when they run a marathon before the next season starts, which I'm assuming they will do for publicity.

haha. yeah. i remember that episode. they were all fighting over the big name models. it was hilarious.

Sixteen Designers Announced For Project Runway 2

On Wednesday, December 7 at 10 p.m. ET/PT, Bravo will launch the second season of the Emmy-nominated, premier reality series focusing on fashion designers, "Project Runway." The premiere episode of the thirteen, one-hour episode run, will pit sixteen designers against one another on the Road to the Runway. These contestants will compete in weekly design challenges at Parsons The New School For Design in New York City, until only three remain and face off once again at New York Fashion Week in February.

Eager to give aspiring designers a chance to break into the notoriously difficult-to-crack fashion world, supermodel Heidi Klum will once again head a panel of industry luminaries, including top women's and men's wear designer Michael Kors and Elle Magazine fashion director Nina Garcia, who will serve as judges and industry mentors charged with selecting and molding the budding designers. There will also be guest judges each week based on the specific challenge. Tim Gunn, Chair of the Parsons The New School For Design, will return to guide the contestants through each of their challenges.

"The first season of 'Project Runway' generated incredible buzz and even more incredible designs," said Bravo President, Lauren Zalaznick. "We are thrilled to bring back this high quality, high drama series with new design challenges that inspire the creativity from the designers that viewers expect."

The new season's sixteen designers are:

Raymundo Baltazar, 24 -- Los Angeles, CA
Kara Janx, 29 -- Johannesburg, South Africa
Chloe Dao, 33 -- Houston, TX
Emmett McCarthy, 42 -- New York, NY
Marla Duran, 51 -- Allentown, PA
Santino Rice, 30 -- Los Angeles, CA
Kirsten Ehrig, 37 -- Los Angeles, CA
Heidi Standridge, 25 -- Atlanta, GA
Diana Eng, 22 -- Jacksonville, FL
Nick Verros, 38 -- Los Angeles, CA
Daniel Franco, 31 -- Los Angeles, CA
Guadalupe Vidal, 29 -- Los Angeles, CA
Andrae Gonzalo, 32 -- Los Angeles, CA
Daniel Vosovic, 24 -- New York, NY
Zulema Griffin, 28 -- New York, NY
John Wade, 24 -- Los Angeles, CA



The winning designer will walk away with $100,000 in seed money to help them launch their own line and a 2007 Saturn SkyRoadster, both provided by Saturn. The winner's designs will be featured in a spread in ELLE, photographed by the magazine's world-renowned Publication Director, Gilles Bensimon. They will also receive a mentorship from the Banana Republic Design Team.

DANIEL IS BACK???? WHAT THE HECK??

 

[jhaime]

It looks...erm...all...american and false...

Sorry if i'm wrong...but...american reality TV is so fake and cheesy...hell, so is British reality TV...

I never saw the first one...obviously a great oppertunity for the winner...

the only similar thing I have seen, which was 2 maybe 3 years ago...was on C4 (british channel 4)...i think it was based in Milan...and was mainly made up of British and european (mainly Italian) design tallent...

anyway, I'll shall probably watch this...

thanks Marianne...

 

[Curious]

Thanks sweet_marianne I was hoping there would be another season

 

[sweet marianne]

your welcome, i'm just suprised they brought back daniel. that they gave him another chance, i have this odd feeling he will be eliminated first again, hahaha.

 

[Mutterlein]

it's a broader spectrum this time. I think one of them went to MIT (their art and tech program) and one went to Cranbrook or Carnegie mellon for product design.

[Faith Akiyama]

S1 models were awesome indeed, loved Martinique and Olga!

A lot of large city dwellers in S2...guess the suburban housewife *cough Wendy cough* isn't working too well for them anymore

 

[fouroclock]

Morganza was from Elite?

Oh wow did she waste her chances when she got dropped.

 

[jennifer716]

Morganza was from Elite?

Oh wow did she waste her chances when she got dropped.

was morganza the one who was late for the first episode??

 

[funkalicious]

Yup. I've got a brilliant idea! JOin ANTM and Project Runway together!!

 

[Mutterlein]

Morganza was from Elite?

Oh wow did she waste her chances when she got dropped.

maybe but this past season she was in plenty of shows. I mean she did walk for Balenciaga even after the show aired.

 

[Chinor1z]

elite probably picked her back up again. First thinking that it would be bad press to have one of their models late for a show that was going to be aired nationally, then realizing that she was such a character that it could perhaps be good publicity to keep her on.

 

[Gina Michele]

One of the new constestants has a site http://www.karajanx.com/
I've seen her work before...

 

[CitraBenzoet]

why did they let daniel franco back? why? why? why?

morganza was my favorite.. i miss watching that show cant wait for the new season to start
