South Africa’s version of design competition Project Runway, is coming to Mzansi Magic. The episodes will broadcast from July.
The focus of the series is to give aspiring fashion designers a chance to compete for a big break into the industry.
“Project Runway has done well internationally. We are excited to have the local version on Mzansi Magic,” director of local entertainment channels at M-Net said.
“As a channel we have successfully introduced scripted content and reality formats into the market. Project Runway SA will add value and variety to our content proposition.”
Production
The series will be produced by Ndalo Pictures, and Rapid Blue.
“South Africa has impressive design talent that is absolutely ready for an international show like this,” said owner of Ndalo Media.
“It’s engaging, informative, enlightening and entertaining. It’s about talent, about mentorship, opportunity, and pushing creativity past all boundaries. We’re incredibly proud to be able to bring this show to our shores.”
In Project Runway SA, finalists will prepare for the 2019 Paris Fashion Week.
Entries open on 26th February.
