The auditions are done and Project Accessory is almost ready to launch. The reality TV spinoff, the latest addition to the Project Runway empire, will premiere on Thursday October 27 on the Lifetime Channel.
The competition will see 12 amateur accessories designers battling it out to take the title. With these talents specializing in bags, belts, hats, jewelry, and footwear, it’ll be interesting to see how their different disciplines come together for the challenges. I’m certainly curious to see what new handbag designers the creators have unearthed!
American model and actress Molly Sims will step into the hosting role alongside judges, fashion and accessories designer Kenneth Cole and InStyle’s editor Ariel Foxman.
Project Accessory will have every chance to succeed as it hits screens at 10:30 pm, after the Project Runway finale. That’s a fairly late time slot, but I’m sure plenty of Project Runway devotees will stick around to see what’s in store.
Project Runway has proved such a winner for the Lifestyle Channel; I only hope Project Accessory can continue the franchise’s winning ways. Bringing in a new host and judges is a bit of a gamble, but hopefully they can breathe some fresh life into the program. Will you be tuning in?
