Project Runway Philippines is ready to give you another season of delicious episodes filled with more innovative challenges, more exciting guests and a more talented group of brash, new designers. Expect to be glued to your TV screens as the season unfolds and reveals who’s poised to take the Philippine fashion community by storm with their unique vision and design supremacy.
Returning to spearhead the show is a powerhouse cast consisting of host and international model Teresa Herrera, fashion designer Rajo Laurel and supermodel Apples Aberin as judges, and fashion designer Jojie Lloren, who will serve as mentor to the contestants throughout their journey to Philippine Fashion Week.
Designers will be given challenges that will test their skills and allow them to present their design philosophies. Each week, one designer will be eliminated until it’s down to three contestants. The Final 3 will each be given a chance to showcase a collection at Philippine Fashion Week, where the judges will declare who has the best collection and is the winner of Project Runway Philippines. The ultimate designer will receive P500,000 in cash, an editorial spread in Preview Magazine, sewing machines from Brother International, a designer package from Mannequin Inc., and a summer scholarship package from School of Fashion and the Arts' European Partner school, Instituto Marangoni.
But is Season 2’s batch of designers ready for the rigors of reality TV? This competition may prove to be a baptism of fire for the many different personalities and stories converging on the runway.
What makes Project Runway Philippines unique—and very Filipino—are the deep friendships formed and the designers’ self-realizations as they travel the challenging road to Philippine Fashion Week. The show is not about the separate journeys of each designer; it’s about design excellence. This is what sets it apart from other editions around the world.
However, only one designer will be the winner of Project Runway Philippines. Who will it be? Find out as the season begins this August. Watch the season premiere on August 12, 2009 at 10 pm on ETC (SBN 21, Sky Cable – Ch. 16, Global Destiny – Ch. 30, Cable Link – Ch. 48 and Smart myTV).
