Commenter Trillion sent in a link to a really fabulous website called Project Rungay. It’s obviously a one-off from discussing the incredible reality show Project Runway, which is returning tomorrow night on Lifetime. But Rungay also has great features on other fashion stuff, as well as information on former PR contestants. I enjoyed this piece, on Cristian Siriano’s line for Payless Shoes, which looks incredible. Little Gwyneth Paltrow-booties and knock-off Chanel-type Mary Janes. Wonderful.
The biggest news coming from the publicity machine surrounding the premiere episode isn’t that none of the returning judges have anything nice to say about guest judge Lindsay Lohan. No! The biggest news is that Nicole Kidman, The Epic Red Carpet Diva herself, has deigned to appear on a very fancy, very special “All-Star Challenge” episode of Project Runway. This will not be part of the traditional Project Runway series that is about to premiere - this is a special show that just been announced, featuring what I think will be former finalists from the first five seasons of PR. Nicole’s task is to help “set up” the contest for the designers.
From her Oscar gowns to her Chanel ads, Nicole Kidman sizzles with style. Next on her sartorial schedule: “Project Runway.”
Cable’s Lifetime network says the actress will make a cameo on a special edition of the franchise, “Project Runway: All-Star Challenge.”
She will help set up a design contest for eight top contestants from past seasons.
The special airs 8 p.m. EDT Thursday, just before the long-awaited debut of the series’ sixth season.
“Runway” regulars Heidi Klum, Michael Kors, Nina Garcia and Tim Gunn will also appear.

I actually think it’s really cool of Nicole to come on PR. My guess is that her daughter (Bella, not Sunday) probably loves the show, and got her mom to watch a few episodes. One thing I’ve always given Nic credit for - she can rule a red carpet like no one’s business. She takes fashion very seriously, and she knows a lot about the history of fashion, and what the next trends will be. She’s more of a student of fashion than most designers. Those PR contestants are going to worship her.
Thanks again to Trillion for the Project Rungay link!

thanks for telling us about project rungay, it’s a great blog!

The great thing about Nicole is that she has style. Her own style. She can look cool in Chanel or great is a street vendor dress she picked up and wore on Letterman a couple of years ago. And she is not afraid to try something new. She’s perfect for Runway.

she does have style
but I hope we don’t have to listen to her thoughts -
I don’t see why anyone objects to Nicole being on Project Runway. She’s got a really cool demeanor, presents herself with incredible poise at all times, and looks fabulous in her clothing. She even managed to get through the Tom divorce with grace and class - no hideous airing of personal grievances or woe is me bullsh** throughout the entire episode. To me she’s a really beautiful woman whose opinion regarding fashion would actually mean something. She’s about a million miles away from the likes of Lindsay Lohan judging on that show. I mean really, Lindsay of the horrible spray tan and leggings line judging a creative person’s efforts to design clothing? That’s just insulting.

We may see a side to her we didn’t know about. I felt that way when Posh was the guest judge. I thought she did a good job and came off very personable. I’m very interested to see how Nicole interacts with Gunn, the designers and, of course, the triumvirate (Garcia/Klum/Kors). Project Rungay (gotta love the name) is my daily web addiction, along with CB, bien sur! BTW, If you’re a lover of musicals, you must go there for their “Musical Mondays”: a fabulously faggy play-by-play ripping of everything from Mary Poppins to A Star is Born.

I’ve always liked her. She always comes off with class and grace. I also like her as an actress. I think she makes a much better choice as a style judge than Lohan! That episode is going to be a train wreck.
