Rachel Zoe is returning to Bravo with Season 2 of The Rachel Zoe Project. In her recent interview with WWD, Rachel talks about what we can expect from Season 2:

WWD: What can viewers expect in season two?
R.Z.: It takes us through awards season, and to Paris. We do a lot of editorial shoots. We did shoots for Marie Claire, Glamour and V magazines.

WWD: The second season was shot just as the economy crashed in the fall. Do viewers see the impact of the recession on your business during the show?

R.Z.: All throughout awards season we felt it. For years designers would come out [to Los Angeles] and set up suites for 10 days and this year there were barely any suites. People couldn’t make a ton of dresses. [Designers would say], “We can’t make 10 custom-made dresses without knowing that any of them would be worn.” It’s a gamble. And it’s always been, but in a different economy they can say, “Oh, we’ll make them now and if no one wears them now, someone will wear them later.”

The Rachel Zoe Project, returns Monday, August 24 at 10 p.m. ET/PT
