Corporate Press Release Theater: Project Runway Returns

Bravo announces the premiere date, and a new time, for the next season of Project Runway. For adults.

NEW YORK – June 12, 2008 – Fashion, fierceness and fun all add up to five seasons of fabulous. Bravo's highly-anticipated fifth season of the three-time Emmy-nominated and Peabody Award-winning creative competition reality series "Project Runway" returns Wednesday, July 16 in a new time slot – 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. Returning to the runway, host and supermodel Heidi Klum heads a panel of industry luminaries, including judges, top women's and men's wear designer Michael Kors, and fashion expert Nina Garcia, as they decide who is "in" and who is "out." Tim Gunn, Chief Creative Officer at Liz Claiborne, Inc. will once again act as a mentor to the designers as they take on weekly fashion challenges.

Despite earlier speculation, looks like Nina's still in. Also, no mention of the season being Runway's last on Bravo.
