TORONTO – Fast fashion takes on a whole new meaning as Corus Studios starts production and international sales on the new fashion competition series Stitched.
Hosted by Canadian fashion model Kim Cloutier, the 12×60 series counts style expert Joe Zee and Elle Canada’s editor-in-chief Vanessa Craft amongst its resident judges.
Introducing a new wave of talented fashion designers, the series matches wits and stitches over three rounds. In every high-style-meets-high-stakes episode, four competitors face off in dramatically themed challenges with one designer eliminated each round. Facing the resident judges and a new guest judge per episode, designers create ambitious outfits inspired by unique materials and concepts under tight timelines. In the end, the top designer from each episode rises to the top with a couture-level creation that earns them the $10,000 prize.
“From talented designers across North America and wicked critiques from our incomparable panel of judges to stunning high fashion creations, Stitched is fashion-forward competition at its best,” said Corus’ VP of original content Lisa Godfrey, in the news release. “Stitched marks an exciting new endeavor for Corus Studios as it continues to develop show-stopping original unscripted content for domestic audiences and international distribution.”
Produced by Forté Entertainment in association with Corus Studios for Slice, Stitched is shooting in Toronto and slated to premiere in fall 2018. The series is also available for international sales at MIPTV.
