Project Runway Australia Season 1

The premiere episode of Project Runway Australia kicked off with the twelve designers introducing themselves.

In this episode, Henry brought the designers to St. Kilda's Beach to draw inspiration from the beach for the Australian lifestyle of hanging out at the beach and partying at bars in the night. The designers had to create a garment that was versatile enough to be used at the beach and at the bar as well. For this task, they had 7 hours in the work room.

Singer Kelly Rowland is the client for this week's challenge- to create a glamorous, yet sexy outfit for her to wear onstage.

The remaining five designers are asked to create a day to night outfit for the Basque range of Myer's.

In this episode the designers were driven to a church in a luxury car. The challenge was initially, to create a wedding dress which could be used as a final, show stopping dress on any runway. The contestants were given 15 minutes and 500 AUD to choose their fabrics.
