Lifetime Should Broadcast Project Run & Play

Lifetime should broadcast Project Run & Play.  For real.  I LOVE Project Runway, and I LOVE Project Run & Play.

 

I’ve followed PR&P from the very beginning – the first season ran simultaneously with Shwin & Shwin’s Project Toddler Runway and I was a competitor.  Shauna from Shwin & Shwin competed in PR&P while hosting and sewing inspiration pieces for PTR.  It makes me tired just thinking about it…  I sewed along with the most recent season of PR&P in an attempt to mimic actually participating in the competition.

So Lifetime, if somehow you happen to read this – and Simple Simon, I seriously think you need to approach the producers with the idea.

Here’s how it could work – the designers need to create all the typical challenges, but things in the Run & Play world are a little more complicated than reality TV:

  • They would need to create all their looks while simultaneously caring for and keeping their children/models occupied.  Remember the challenge on Project Runway for Heidi’s new children’s fashion line where they had “live” babies?  Like that, only Tim won’t swoop in to babysit them.
  • Points will be deducted if their child/model throws a tantrum and refuses to wear their creation.
  • Points deducted if their child/model refuses to walk the runway.
  • In addition to the runway show, the designers need to stage elaborate photo shoots and use whatever means (cough * candy bribe * cough) necessary to accomplish cooperation.

Looks like I might lose some major points in my format.  This was how Hadley looked for all but ONE of the photos when I shot her for the Men’s Dress shirt challenge.  Here’s the keeper and you can’t even see the front of the dress:

Would you watch Project Toddler Runway on TV?  I know I would – it can’t be worse than Honey Boo Boo!!

    […] of pictures because photo shoots with Hadley can be… unpredictable.  And usually involve tears and some screaming.  I was pleasantly surprised to find that there were many nice shots from which to select. […]
