Back in Fashion

Good news, Project Runway fans: The dust has settled on the legal battle that has kept the show’s new season from moving to its new home, Lifetime.

A statement issued today says that NBC Universal, The Weinstein Company, and Lifetime have resolved their disputes, and that all of the parties are pleased with the outcome.

Harvey Weinstein added that he wanted “to personally congratulate Jeff Zucker and NBCU on their success in the litigation and thank Jeff for resolving this in a professional manner.

“We look forward to working together on our ongoing projects.”

I wouldn’t count on that happening anytime soon since the blogosphere painted the legal battle with a nasty brush, but, hey – strange bedfellows are common in Hollywood.

The new season of Project Runway, which already has been shot in L.A. (with the finale runway show having taken place, as ush, at February’s Fashion Week in New York), will premiere…soon.

The show’s sixth season will air this summer.
