This past Thursday night was the Premiere of Season 17 of "Project Runway", back on Bravo TV, the network that aired the first FIVE seasons of the reality competition show--of which I was part of in Season 2 and judged in Season 6. I am a Consulting Producer on the show and was lucky enough to have exclusive access to the behind-the-scenes action. Instead of recap'ing each episode, I will post fun "backstage" photos of what went on while doing my consulting producing duties.

First up is the Premiere Episode. For this first episode, the designers/contestants were asked to bring designs from home that best represented who they were as designers to a party-like atmosphere so the show's judges--Supermodel Karlie Kloss, Elle Magazine Editor-in-Chief Nina Garcia, Designer Brandon Maxwell and Journalist/Editor and former Editor-in-Chief of Teen Vogue, Elaine Welteroth--could ascertain the new designer's aesthetic. Here are photos from the first episode "party", as well as backstage model photos with the designer's designs + more--Enjoy!
