Critics have touted the third season premiere of the series, which aired July 12 on Bravo, as "tantalizing", "engrossing" and a "piece of new pop culture obsession with the world of fashion."
PROJECT RUNWAY provides an opportunity for these budding designers to break into the notoriously exclusive fashion business.

Bravo President Lauren Zalaznick added: "At its core, PROJECT RUNWAY is nothing if not great storytelling. We are thrilled that NBC has chosen to air episodes one and two and believe that their support will embolden this franchise tenfold in the weeks to come."
The success of PROJECT RUNWAY is underscored by the performance of the program′s second season finale this past March. The highly-anticipated episode was seen by an audience of over 3.4 million making it the most viewed single telecast in the 20-year history of the network.
