Project Runway Poland


Project Runway is a competitive reality television series focusing on fashion design. In Poland it is shown on the TVN. The show follows a group of fashion designers as they compete against each other to avoid being "the next fashion victim" and win the competition. The programme is based upon the US reality show Project Runway.

Format

Project Runway is hosted by a celebrity and judged by a panel with three permanent judges and a 4th guest judge - typically a fashion designer, fashion model or celebrity from the fashion industry. Tomasz Ossoliński, fashion designer, appears as a mentor for the designers giving his criticism of their garments and offering support. The program takes place in Warsaw with designers using a workroom and living together.
The fashion models who work with the designers throughout the season are also in competition. At the beginning of each episode, the designer who won the previous week's challenge is compelled to switch two models, and at the end, the model who wore the losing design is automatically eliminated. Included in the prize package for the winning model is coverage in the Polish edition of ELLE magazine.
