Project Runway
Project Runway is the Spanish way to refer to the television competition show where designers compete to create the best clothing.
Since this is a specific title of a television program, the English name is used directly in Spanish to refer to the show.
Did you know?
- While English uses 'runway' for both planes and fashion, Spanish uses pista for airplanes and pasarela for fashion. Using pista in a fashion context would sound like the models are walking on an airstrip.
- The word pasarela is also used in Spanish to describe the narrow pedestrian bridges that cross busy highways, linking the fashion world to urban infrastructure.
- To describe the action of walking the runway, Spanish uses the verb desfilar. This is the same word used for soldiers marching in a military parade.
