New York, NY(April 3, 2013) –
For the remainder of this season of Lifetime’s Emmy® Award-nominated Project
Runway, viewers and fashionistas will get their fill with three straight
weeks of extended two-hour episodes, starting Thursday, April 11th,
from 9:00pm- 11:00pm ET/PT, when guest judge multiple Grammy
winner John Legend lends his hand to decide which designers get to go to
Fashion Week as the remaining designers travel to Paris, Barcelona, Berlin and
London seeking inspiration for their final challenge.
Project
Runway’s two-part finale,
beginning April 18th, will showcase the
finalists working on their collections and hometown visits with co-host and
mentor Tim Gunn, concluding on April 25th with the eagerly anticipated final
runway show at Lincoln Center, where Michael Kors returns to the series as the
finale’s guest judge to help determine the winner with Heidi Klum, Nina Garcia
and Zac Posen.
On Thursday,
May 2, at 9pm ET/PT, Lifetime will air The Project Runway Season 11
Reunion Special, in which all 16 talented designers from Season 11 will
return one last time to have their chance to rant, rave and reminisce about
their experience on the show with host and Marie
Claire’s Senior Fashion
Editor, Zanna Roberts Rassi.
Are the two-hour episodes going to give us more content or are they simply an excuse to squeeze in more ads to pay for all of those fancy European trips? And it's a big surprise to see that a reunion special is happening, we haven't had one since Season 7. What do you think about all of this?
