Get Ready for The Look
King 5 is launching a local version of Project Runway
By Seattle Mag February 14, 2013
Since November 30, ten local designers have been competing in The Look, a reality fashion TV show co-produced by King 5’s Evening Magazine, IADT’s Monir Zhanghoreishi and Rose Dennis, designer Luly Yang’s publicist.
Each week through February 7 the designers, including Lisa Vian Hunter, Tina Witherspoon, Julie Danforth, Justin Zachary Bartle (all former Seamless in Seattle contestants) and Maxwell Cunanan are presented with a challenge, and given only 14 hours to complete it. Each episode will have one winner and two losers, until only three designers remain at the finale, which was pre-taped at The Bravern on February 7 (with food by John Howie, truffled deviled eggs, yum).
Evening Magazine begins airing episodes of The Look on Monday, February 18 at 7 p.m. on King TV channel 5, ending with the finale airing on Friday, February 25.
Who will win? Who will lose? We know, but we’ll never tell. You’ll just have to tune in to find out.
