Project Runway
天桥骄子

Project Runway is an American reality television series on Lifetime, previously on the Bravo Network, created by Eli Holzman which focuses on fashion design and is hosted by model Heidi Klum. The contestants compete with each other to create the best clothes and are restricted in time, materials and theme. Their designs are judged, and one or more designers are eliminated each week. During each season, selected competitors are progressively eliminated based on the judges' scores until only a few contestants remain; these finalists prepare a complete fashion collection for New York Fashion Week, from which a winner is determined. It won a Peabody Award in 2007 “for using the ‘television reality contest' genre to engage, inform, enlighten and entertain.”
《天桥骄子》是由艾利·霍兹曼制作的一档美国电视真人秀节目，先是在布拉沃电视网络频道播出，后转到Lifetime频道。该节目以时装设计为主，由著名模特海蒂·克鲁姆主持。选手们根据主题，在有限的时间内利用指定的材料，尽量做出最上乘的衣服。这些设计随即由评委评审，每周会淘汰一名到多名选手。每一季中选手的表现由评委打分进行逐级甄选，最终剩下若干名选手。这些选手将为纽约时尚周设计一整套的服饰，并在此环节中角逐冠军。2007年该节目荣获皮博迪奖，获奖理由是它“用电视真人秀比赛的形式，达到教育、启迪、娱乐和鼓励参与的目的”。

Each non-finale challenge (the scope of one episode) requires the designers to develop one or more pieces of new clothing to be presented at a runway show. The challenges range in creative diversity to test the designers' ingenuity while maintaining their personal fashion design aesthetic. These challenges may include creating a garment from non-traditional materials. The winner will be granted a foundation for starting his or her own fashion brand, and/or a double spread coverage in top magazines like ELLE ( Season 1-5) and Marie Claire ( Season 6-9), or sometimes an apprenticeship in a world-class fashion company.
每一期非决赛的竞赛中，选手根据要求设计一件或多件用于秀场的衣服。该节目用各种奇思妙想的考验，测试选手们如何一面保持个人时装的美感，一面发挥聪明才智应对各项挑战，包括利用非传统的衣质材料制作服装。胜出者可获得自有品牌的创立基金、《ELLE》(第1—5季)或《嘉人》(第6—9季)等高端杂志的跨页报道和参与世界级时装设计公司的学徒计划。
