Gather round, fashionistas, I have wonderful news. All of the finest fashion television programming is beginning to return! Between Project Runway, The Rachel Zoe Project, America's Next Top Model, Project Runway: All-Star Challenge and Models of the Runway, my DVR is going to fill up awfully fast! It's time to critique and prioritize, and more importantly, not let Heidi auf you!

Project Runway
As far as I'm concerned, Project Runway is the Oprah of fashionista television -- it just doesn't get any better than this. In case you've been hiding under a rock, each of an initial 16 budding designers create custom creations based on a weekly project, and awesome design and drama result. Between Heidi Klum's delightful hosting and Tim Gunn's gentle, yet firm critiques of each designer's custom project, this show is an absolute must-see for any fashion or reality TV lover. It's back on the runway as of August 20 on a new network, Lifetime.

The Rachel Zoe Project
If you were wondering why all the hottest celebrities always seem to have such fantastic style, the answer is Rachel Zoe. Stylist to the stars, Zoe gained notoriety for her friendship with clients Nicole Richie and Lindsay Lohan at the lowest of their weights, sparking a controversy that Zoe was encouraging them to wear a size 0, or worse, giving them diet pills to help keep them rail thin. Zoe has vehemently defended herself against these terrible rumors, and continues to have a very strong clientele base. Look forward to this show for the celebrity fittings, incredible Birkin shopping sprees, and drama with her assistants. Back Monday, August 24.

America's Next Top Model
Tyra Mail, ya'll! If Tyra Banks' outlandish behavior and Miss J's outfits aren't enough reason to watch America's Next Top Model's 13th cycle, well, I just don't know what is. With a brand new crop of aspiring models -- all under 5-foot-7! -- this season is sure to be a winner. Look for more inspired photo shoots, tear-inducing makeovers, and, of course, drama among the models. Tune in Wednesday, September 9.

Models of the Runway
Models of the Runway is Lifetime's new spinoff show from Project Runway. In Runway's first season, the show did feature more of the models' point of view, but it was scrapped for viewers' increased interest in the designers. No more! All 16 models will appear on Project Runway, but also in their own reality series, documenting their experience and the behind-the-scenes life of a model participating in the show. It airs immediately following Project Runway.
