The Reality of Fashion


In true celebrity style, Rachel Zoe, America's top merry muffin celebrity stylist, has teamed up with Bravo to create a reality show! Excellent. The docu-drama, entitled The Rachel Zoe Project follows Zoe and her inner circle (assistants and a seemingly kind of creepy husband) as they endeavor to take Zoe's business to the next degree. Mmmm, think Project Runway meets celebrity sensations meet catty fashionista circles? Maybe?

Bravos eloquent writers are a little more elaborate in their description of the show, so I'll let them bust out synopsis of Project Zoe for you.

The series, the perfectly styled, go-to force among "it" starlets, fashion houses, beauty firms, and magazine editors will give viewers a fly on the wall look at how she juggles constant deadlines, fashion shows, and celebrity clients. Every week viewers will get to see Zoe and her team struggle to balance putting her at the forefront of a new design business, while insuring that she has plenty of time for the one-on-one requirements of her successful business as an A-list celebrity stylist, where she's on call 24-hours-a-day to shop, shape, and council, racing from meetings with designers at their showrooms to coast-to-coast hunting for unique clothes and accessories. Zoe will show viewers how her personalized touch has made her a household name by making over and styling models, private clients, advertising campaigns, editorial shoots, and runway shows in each episode.

Can't hold out? Want more info? Super, because you will also find an accompanying interview with R. Zoe herself attached. While the fashion world waits, Fabsugar graciously posted a preview for interested viewers. The 21-minute long video clip tore me between opinions, but I'll still check the debut.


PS. I am still weirded out by how identical Zoe and Nicole Richie look in appearance. I'm still uncertain of the details surrounding their fall-out, but my guess is sibling rivalry or the like.
