Bravo Announces Three New Shows With Bethenny Frankel, Christian Siriano, & Fabio Viviani

I just got the press release from Bravo: our old pals Bethenny Frankel, Project Runway’s Christian Siriano and Top Chef’s Fabio Viviani are all getting their very own shows. So, all the rumor mongering this summer about Bethenny’s solo-project were legit!

Variety reports that the title for Fabio’s show is the predictably cheesy “Fabio: A Catered Affair.” Fabio and Christian’s projects were produced by Magical Elves, the production company behind Project Runway and Top Chef, so you know it’s going to be excellent. Shed Media, the production company behind Bethenny’s show, is also responsible for Real Housewives of New York City and a bunch of other reality shows including Supernanny.

Description of the shows from the press release is below the cut.  Are you excited for this new crop of shows?

…As one of the breakout characters of “The Real Housewives of New York City,” Bethenny Frankel has shared her social life with millions of viewers, and in her new docu-series fans will get an up close and personal look at her career. Viewers will follow the outspoken New York City socialite as she juggles her happy love life, insanely busy schedule and career as a natural foods chef. Somewhere in her schedule she found time to write a book on healthy living – Naturally Thin: Unleash Your SkinnyGirl and Free Yourself from a Lifetime of Dieting that quickly became a New York Times bestseller – and continues to manage her line of “Skinny Girl” cocktails.

The Untitled Christian Siriano Project will follow the New York based designer as he takes his burgeoning fashion lines and career to the next level.  Tackling a challenging business environment as well as intense expectations from the fashion community and fans alike, Christian strives to build a groundbreaking career in fashion. Born and raised in Annapolis, Maryland, Siriano began his career in fashion at 13.  After interning for both Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood, Siriano showed his first small collection during London fashion week in the Fall of 2005, and since has shown three runway collections at New York Fashion Week (available at Saks Fifth Avenue and other luxury retailers). He also created a designer collection for Payless Shoes and an exclusive beauty collection for Victoria’s Secret Beauty. Siriano is the author of Fierce Style: How to Be Your Most Fabulous Self.

The Untitled Fabio Viviani Project follows the passionate chef and “Top Chef” finalist as he charms his way through the competitive culinary world of Los Angeles. The series focuses on the extravagant Viviani and his business partner Jacopo Falleni as they try to reach a wider and more diverse client base and cater high-end events. Viewers will see the pair deal with a new and challenging event each week, as they manage their demanding client list. Born and raised in Florence, Italy and currently residing in Southern California, Viviani is the owner and Executive Chef of Café Firenze Italian Restaurant and Martini Bar, where he incorporates Italian, French and Spanish influences in his dishes.
