Future Fashion Stars: Project Runway Holding An NYC Open Call This Monday

Back in February we told you that Project Runway was looking for the best new fashion designers to star in its 10th season. If you didn't get your application together by the March 15 deadline, don't worry—you still have a chance to earn your spot as Tim Gunn's next protege.

Next Monday, April 9 Project Runway will be holding an open casting call right here in NYC. They'll be setting up shop at the Hilton New York at 6th Avenue and 54th Street from 10am to 4pm, so gather together your best creations and show them what you've got. Tim and Heidi probably won't be there, but you never know! Both of them do live here, after all.

Here are the details:

Please bring 5 or 6 of your garments that demonstrate your sewing skills and your fashion point of view. Please do NOT bring bridal, costumes or garments designed by you but sewn by someone else. Be prepared for only two of your garments to be looked at so choose accordingly. No models please. Also, bring a portfolio if you have one.

Whether you're an aspiring star or just discovering your love of fashion, there's always more to learn. Our many fashion classes can teach you everything from sewing and patternmaking to hatmaking and shoemaking.
