Meet Ari Fish. She is a Gemini who received her design training at the Kansas City Art Institute. She loves working with any type of fabric or material. How would she dress first lady Michelle Obama? With a “peach-colored, super-concentric stitched satin one-piece dress with an intense but comfortable collar.” If she were to name her own label, she’d call it “Made in America by Ari Fish”. Tune in to Project Runway on August 20 and watch designer Ari put her skills to the test!

Meet Logan Neitzel. He’s your go-to man for cool street wear or an edgy rocker look. If he wasn’t designing, he’d be a stuntman or a race car driver. Go ahead, ask him about his croc-embossed leather duffel bag (it’s the item he’s most proud of designing). But don’t let him catch you in public dressed a little too casual - the fashion faux pas that absolutely drives him crazy is sweatsuits!

Watch Logan and the rest of the Project Runway Season 6 contestants battle it out in the workroom on August 20.

Meet Carol Hannah Whitfield. She’s a self-taught designer who learned to sew from her mom. She realized she had designer potential when the results of a career survey in the fifth grade told her she was well-suited to fashion design. While her strengths include sewing fast, streaming a theme throughout several pieces and seeing things from a construction point of view, she admits that she can be indecisive at times.
