Yet I think it’s fair to say that Project Runway’s impact waned as the reality-TV genre expanded and Gunn and Klum left for their Prime Video series Making the Cut. From the very beginning, the show was great at casting passionate, distinct competitors who had a specific fashion perspective and work ethic, the apex of which was season four winner Christian Siriano, whose success afterward made him nearly as synonymous with the show as Tim and Heidi.

Back then, before reality TV was fully everywhere, it was a phenomenon with Tim Gunn’s “Make it work!” catchphrase and Heidi Klum taking time off from supermodeling to host and judge. I remember watching Project Runway in my college dorm room when it debuted, and then with my best friend in our first postgraduation apartment. But before then, let’s talk about how this All-Stars season fits into the series’ legacy.
These judging decisions, they make no sense - and we’ll get into that. Roxana Hadadi: Jason, I write this to you through tears over Rami Kashoú’s unjust exit in the semifinals of this 20th season of Project Runway.

Nearly 20 years later, they’re Bravo’s only remaining competition series, and both have become legacy institutions in the reality-TV space. In the early aughts, before Bravo became synonymous with Real Housewives, Scandoval, and the Andy Cohen empire, the cable network built on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy’s unexpected cultural omnipresence with Top Chef and Project Runway, a pair of competition shows ostensibly centered on, respectively, cutting-edge cuisine and high fashion. Best of all, more people tuned into the long-running fashion design show because of this new plus-size focus.Project Runway is increasingly an exercise in hoping for moderate success, for both the contestants and production. The designers had a new model for each challenge, and they each had a chance to design for plus-size models. After the show aired, the sisters deny that she was intentionally cheating, Nonetheless, this was the drama that dominated the first half of the season.įor the first time, Project Runway used plus-size models. Tim confronted Claire, and she admitted this was true. Then the designers disliked Claire because she brought a tape measure to her room. This also annoyed their fellow designers with their chaotic work style and emotional outbursts. While this may work in their design business, this clearly confused the judges. The two worked together so often that it was hard to determine who actually did what in their design aesthetic. Now they were on the Lifetime reality show competing against each other. Twin sisters Shawn and Claire Buitendorp had previously designed clothes for such celebrities as Katy Perry.

After laying low a few years, Sean was on guest judge on Project Runway New Zealand last year.He is currently competing on the finale season of Project Runway All Stars. He was fascinated by the betrayal of Julius Caesar, and used that for fodder for his winning collection. The New Zealand native’s collection was inspired by a Project Runway challenge trip to Rome. He sent down a series of garments with dramatic fringe. Then during the finale, Sean stepped it up. Both created spectacular garments for a unique rainway runway. During this season, Sean was pitted against Hawaiian-based designer Kini Zamora. Throughout season 13, menswear designer Sean Kelly wowed the judges.
