By Christopher Rocchio, 07/08/2009
Lifetime has revealed the identities of the 16 fashion designers competing on Project Runway's sixth season, which will premiere Thursday, August 20 at 10PM ET/PT.
Only three contestants avoided elimination and received the opportunity to show their own clothing creations at New York Fashion Week, which was held in February.
Project Runway's sixth-season winner will receive an editorial feature in an upcoming issue of Marie Claire magazine, a cash prize of $100,000 to start a fashion line, and a trip to Paris. Host Heidi Klum, mentor Tim Gunn and judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia will all reprise their roles for the show's sixth season, which will also include special guest judges from the worlds of fashion, music, film and television.
