The 16 designers of “Project Runway” season six were announced on myLifetime.com this morning. None of the designers are from Kentucky but one, Althea Harper, hails from Dayton, Ohio. And more than one contestant lives in the south including two designers from Charleston, S.C..
The site features video tours of the designers homes and closets, fashion tips, casting sessions and audition videos so you get a sense of who they are before the season even starts. Check out the Designer’s Portfolio section that includes sketches from the challenges in the upcoming season which debuts on Lifetime, Aug. 20 at 10 p.m.

While I grew up in small-town Kentucky I’ve always been fascinated with the cosmopolitan world of high fashion. On the other hand, I love a bargain and the thrill of shopping for just the right piece.
I have a degree in English from the University of Kentucky, and since 2002 I’ve written a column for the Lexington Herald-Leader about shopping, beauty and fashion. During that time I’ve interviewed everyone from designers to boutique owners about trends and style. And I’m still forever searching for the next big sale.
