I think the title is '' Fashion Show'' I could be wrong.. but there is a definite twist to this show.. The designs you see will be made available for sale the next day at stores we are all familiar with.
Obviously it had to have been taped a while back for them to do this. but this might be fun..
Don't worry about the who and whens Kitty. As it gets closer to the time they air it. you will see more and more commercials for it.

Date: 2/23/12 8:46 AM Jessica Simpson has something to do with this I think she's the host? Major networks trying to cash in on the popularity of Project Runway. -- Edited on 2/23/12 8:46 AM -- ------ quiltingwolf.blogspot.com |

The teasers haven't been real clear on this. but I think she may be a judge maybe.. I am not sure.. will try to pay more attention to the next teaser..
I do know its a bit different in format from Project Runway. The fact they have this slotted in prime time.. on a major channel tells us all that indeed.. its a year for design, fashion and sewing. FINALLY. |

Date: 2/23/12 8:54 AM It is called Fashion Star. According to IMDB:
The show, hosted by supermodel Elle Macpherson, will see designers from various fields compete for a contract that will put their fashion lines in retail stores. The Times said viewers will be able to buy the contestants' designs online, with NBC getting a share of sales.

Yeah, when I saw this I thought, "How in the WORLD can the designs be on sale the next day?"
Simply the *physical* logistics of getting the fabric, making the garment (in different sizes no less!), then the physical transportation - since it is most likely coming from a factory in China.
Yep. This show *had* to have been taped a while ago.
Admittedly, the jaded Gen-Xer in me thought, "Great. Another infommercial disguised as a fashion show / contest show."  ------ Evelyn: Pfaff Creative Performance

Hope I can check it out some ..... finally something we do not need cable to watch it!  ------ I am a gal from Kalamazoo.... oh what a gal... smile.... It is in Michigan... la la la ...love that Glen Miller classic!
