Bravo celebrated its upcoming seasons of “Mad Fashion” and “Fashion Hunters” with an intimate red carpet premier party in New York City at Hell’s Kitchen’s Yotel. “Project Runway” alum Chris March is making a return to TV with his own show, the eagerlyanticipated “Mad Fashion”, which finds March and his offbeat entourage of designer buddies, crafting outrageous, statement screaming looks for high-end clientele such as Jennifer Coolidge, Ruthie Davis and John Legend, who showed up to the party with supermodel girlfriend Chrissy Teigen to socialize with the cast.

In an exclusive interview, March said he is talented at pushing high-profile clients into crazy ensembles outside their comfort zone, such as Tracy Stern, founder of Tracy Stern & Salon Teas. “If you can walk in Central Park in the freezing cold in a Marie Antoinette outfit with a giant pink ostrich fan and rock it you’re okay,” says Stern.

March's team includes a wig connoisseur and a builder (yes, some of their creations required an actual team of wig impresarios), as well as the designer’s resident “seamstress/bedazzler” - Christine Brown. Brown showed up to the party in a bright pink Ballerina Barbie dress she sewed and spray-painted the day before. Brown says, “Mad Fashion is especially pointed for fashion lovers because it gives insight to the entire creative process, from listening to clients, to developing ideas to constructing the garments."

Bravo’s other new show, “Fashion Hunters”, will follow the pursuits of four stylish New Yorkers on the hunt for perfect pieces to sell in their consignment shop: Second Time Around.
“Mad Fashion” premiered on Bravo on Tuesday, September 27th at 10pm, and “Fashion Hunters” premieres on Tuesday, October 4 at 10:30pm.
