Previously, Bravo introduced a whole new cast after viewership continued to decrease following season 13.
It was the first-ever reboot in Real Housewives history.
At the time, Real Housewives executive producer and talk show host Andy Cohen said they wanted to bring in ‘a multicultural group of friends who really best reflect the most exciting city in the country.’
During BravoCon 2022, the Watch What Happens Live host said: ‘We were looking for a group of friends who were actually connected — women with interesting jobs.
‘We have Brooklyn, Tribeca, all over town,’ he added. ‘Really cool jobs, fashion, PR, model, influencer, all different types. Their energy and humor is great.’
The entrepreneur, who co-founded her namesake fashion brand with her brother Uri Minkoff in 2005, is no stranger to reality TV as she previously appeared on Project Runway as well as the Project Runway All Stars spin-off as a guest judge.
She also made appearances on Project Runway: Fashion Startup and So Cosmo.
She launched the Female Founder Collective — an ecosystem designed to help female founders around the globe to grow their business through community, resources, and education — in 2018.

Minkoff will be joining another fashion icon, former J.Crew executive Jenna Lyons — who confirmed she would be returning for the new season.
However, she said that she would be putting up boundaries as she prefers to keep certain aspects of her personal life private.
Earlier this year, she opened up to The New York Times about wanting to keep her relationship with Cass Bird out of the public eye.
‘I have a relationship, but I would not like to name her,’ she told the outlet. ‘I want to keep her out of the press. That is my commitment to her. It’s off the table. I joined the process. She did not.’
A release date for season 15 of the Real Housewives of New York City has not yet been announced.
