Bravo Heralds the Return of “The Rachel Zoe Project”

Bravo is trumpeting the return of “The Rachel Zoe Project,” which begins Tuesday, August 25 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

According to a release, Bravo says the second installment of this fashion-forward drama “delves further into the inner workings of Team Zoe as they jet from coast to coast throwing charity auctions, attending store openings and laboring to find the perfect gowns to adorn the red carpet during award season. “

The new season brings an impressive cast to viewers, including Giorgio Armani, John Galliano, Christian Lacroix, Karl Lagerfeld, Giambattista Valli, Diane Von Furstenberg and Matthew Williamson.

Here’s how the new season looks in short.

Rachel Zoe is as over-booked as ever and the constant tension between her hotheaded assistants, Brad and Taylor, only serves to escalate the drama in her already crazed schedule, leading to stress induced vertigo. The economic downturn presents yet another snag in the garment-hunting process and Team Zoe must get creative as the number of available couture gowns dwindle. There is never a dull moment as Rachel takes her team to Paris Fashion Week, continues to build her brand, and struggles to balance her personal life and spend time with her husband, Rodger.

“The Rachel Zoe Project’s” popularity grew throughout its first season, with the season finale delivering a series high across all demos with more than one million total viewers.

I wonder how it’ll do now that Lifetime has scooped up Project Runway.

We’ll see soon enough!
