LIFETIME AND YAHOO TV PARTNER TO PREMIERE SPECIAL "ROAD TO THE RUNWAY" ONLINE

One Hour Project Runway Casting Special Now Available to Promote Emmy(R) Nominated Series' August 6 Linear Premiere

LOS ANGELES, CA (July 30, 2015) - In advance of Emmy(R) Award nominated Project Runway's (#ProjectRunway) upcoming Season 14 debut, Lifetime and Yahoo TV have partnered to premiere the hour-long casting special Road to the Runway online, effective immediately. Introducing this season's set of designers with home and closet tours of each contestant and giving a first look into what's in store for the series' 14th season, Road to the Runway will air linearly at 8pm ET/PT next Thursday, August 6th, leading into Project Runway's return at 9pm ET/PT.
