NBA x Project Runway crossover



This past Sunday, an interesting crossover between two properties that Solar Entertainment Corporation have rights to took place.

On the latest episode of Project Runway Philippines, the competing Pinoy fashion designers went to the NBA Store in Glorietta for their latest challenge: to create a fashion look out of the items available at the said store.

Overseeing the festivities in that episode is NBA Philippines country manager Carlo Singson, who also gave his own sense of fashion with his suggestions and tips for the designers. Acting as one of the guest judges for this episode is Rain or Shine's versatile swingman Gabe Norwood.

Replays of this NBA crossover edition for Project Runway: Philippines are as follows:

August 19: 10pm
August 20: 3am, 10am, 5pm
August 22 1pm
August 23 8am

The concept of basketball players becoming fashionable was an offshoot from David Stern instituting a dress code a decade ago in 2005. The then-commissioner noted that players should be wearing a "business casual" attire in all "team or league activities." In addition, certain players have decided to create their own unique style, like a Dwyane Wade or a Russell Westbrook. In fact, LeBron James designated Rachel Johnson back in 2006.

Nowadays, the pre-game and post-game scenes could be a witness to a fashion innovation or even a fashion faux pas.
