00:00This season on Project Runway.
00:04I'm back!
00:07Your look walk out.
00:08I was like, the cervix is dilated and she's crowning.
00:12No tea, no shade, no pink lemonade.
00:15It's fashion's pierces competition.
00:18You have to bring it.
00:19It really is pushing the boundaries of fashion.
00:22She's badass and flirty at the same time.
00:25This is special.
00:26You have done something that a lot of people cannot do.
00:31And that is to shut me up.
00:33With designers that will stop at nothing to win.
00:36You're the most untalented designer.
00:41Done.
00:42Shut up.
00:42Oh shit.
00:43We're in fashion, supposed to be competitive.
00:45I'm gonna fight to be here.
00:46She is drama.
00:48It's gonna be cutthroat.
00:50Judges who aren't afraid to be brutally honest.
00:52No one would wear that outfit.
00:54The dress was a complete mess.
00:57Is that inspiring?
00:58I don't know how to handle this.
01:00Ugh!
01:00I'm not gonna do.
01:01I do not come to look at a bunch of ugly clothes.
01:04This is unwearable.
01:05This is so weird.
01:06It's a new house with new rules.
01:09Alright designers, that's time.
01:11You are still sewing?
01:12Mmm.
01:13I wanna go home.
01:14Are you nuts?
01:15I want this so bad.
01:16Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
01:19Ah!
01:20I wanna be on top.
01:21In fashion, one day you're in, and the next day, you're out.
01:27For 12 designers, this is a chance of a lifetime.
01:31At stake for the winner is $200,000.
01:34Six months of representation from Agent 3 PR.
01:38A spread in Elle magazine.
01:40And a life-changing mentorship with the CFDA.
01:43This is Project Runway.
01:45And an eye to me.
01:48Woo!
01:49Wow!
01:51Let me spell it out.
01:52W-O-W-O.
01:54Let me spell it out.
01:56W-O-W-O-W.
01:58Wow!
02:00Oh, shit.
02:01Yo!
02:03Yo, you on Project Runway for real?
02:05Welcome to Project Runway,
02:07a.k.a. The Joseph McCray Show.
02:09Ooh!
02:10Listen, it's Joseph McCray, is one word.
02:13do not break it up, first and last together,
02:16and that's it.
02:19Uh-oh, you got a designer and a model.
02:24I'm a tall bitch.
02:32Hey Ziva.
02:33How are you, I'm Joseph McCray.
02:34I'm Ethan, but you may recognize me as Utica
02:38from RuPaul's Drag Race.
02:39You think I can eat that?
02:40Yeah, you can chew on it.
02:42Girl, this is crystals.
02:43Oh, we got another one.
02:45Hey, Ziva.
02:46How are you?
02:47Hola.
02:47Ethan, nice to meet you.
02:48VJ.
02:49I'm Joseph McCray.
02:50Hi, Joseph.
02:51No, no, no, you got to say that person.
02:53Hi.
02:54Hold on, VJ is Joseph McCray.
02:56OK, Joseph, right?
02:57Joseph McCray.
02:57Joseph Mac.
02:59McCray.
02:59McCray.
03:00Don't even split it.
03:00OK, Joseph McCray.
03:01Boom, easy, right?
03:05Hola.
03:06Hola.
03:07Hi.
03:08I'm Joseph McCray.
03:09Hey.

03:11Pleasure.
03:12Hey.
03:13Hola.
03:14Hi.
03:15Bitches, I am back.
03:18Jesus, nice to meet you.
03:19I'm Jesus Estrada from Project Runway season seven.
03:23I'm so excited.
03:25Jesus, we are concerned about your taste level.
03:28I was a baby.
03:29I was 21 years old.
03:31I'm 36 now.
03:32Hola.
03:32Back then, I didn't know who I was as a designer.
03:35Now coming back, I know my DNA.
03:38I have a very successful business.
03:39So Heidi has nothing to worry about this time around,
03:43about my taste level.
03:45I'm going to win, just so you know.
03:47So I hope you bitches are ready.
03:48Yes.
03:49What is going on?
03:51Yeah.
03:51I'm VJ.
03:52I'm Joan.
03:53Nice to meet you.
03:54Joan, nice to meet you, Joan.
03:55Hey, guys.
03:56Hey.
03:57Hey, what's up?
03:57Hi.
03:59My name is Yuchen.
03:59Hi.
04:00Hi.
04:04My name is Casey Black.
04:05I was on season 19 of Project Runway,
04:09and I left on episode one.
04:13I'm, like, cry laughing.
04:15Casey, you are out.
04:16Being eliminated in the first challenge,
04:19I didn't get to show who I was as a person,
04:22as a designer, as an artist.
04:24So I'm just hoping to prove who I am.
04:26Hi.
04:27Hi.
04:28Hi.
04:29Oh, my God.
04:30Hi.
04:31Hi.
04:32Honey, you look like you're ready.
04:34I mean, born ready, baby.
04:35You're right.
04:36Oh, shit, bitch.
04:38Are you guys ready to double the travel?
04:42Is that my twin brother?
04:44Oh, .
04:45Oh, no, no, no!
04:47Oh, my God.
04:48Oh, my God.
04:49Oh, my God.
04:50There's another one.
04:52The Estrada did not come to plan.
04:53Let them meet the winner.
04:58Wait, this one's my side, no?
05:00They want me here, though.
05:01You want to tell them that you want this side?
05:03Yeah, that's my side.
05:05Is that going to be a fight?
05:06Hi, I'm Antonio Estrada.
05:07I'm the winner of Project Runway season 21,
05:10and this is the first runner-up.
05:11No, I'm kidding.
05:13We'll see you on season seven?
05:14No, this is his first time.
05:17I waited 15 years.
05:18We're here.
05:19Yes.
05:20There you go.
05:22I always knew I wanted to do fashion.
05:23It was my dream to be on Project Runway, not my brother.
05:26I said my brother went in before me, so.
05:28But I never felt like I was living in his shadow.
05:32I'm talented.
05:34I'm excited to showcase my own creations,
05:36give me my own vision, my own style outside of my brother,
05:39and I'm here to win.
05:406, 7, 8, 9, 10.
05:41We're done.
05:42We're done.
05:43This is an act.
05:43We're done.
05:43Yeah, 12.
05:53Welcome home, Mama.
05:54Yes.
05:55Yes.
05:56Yes.
05:56Yes.
05:57Designers, welcome to Project Runway.
05:59I can't believe I'm saying this again.
06:01This is so exciting.
06:02I'm your host, Heidi Klum.
06:04What do you want?
06:05Yes.
06:06This is truly a magical place where dreams do come true.
06:11And no one knows this more than the world-renowned
06:13designer and icon next to me, Christian Siriano.
06:23I'm good.
06:25So you want to know your first challenge?
06:27Absolutely.
06:28OK, if you ask any designer where they first fell in love
06:31with fashion, I think one answer comes up more than any other.
06:35The Disney Princess.
06:40The princesses have inspired so many designers for decades.
06:43And as you know, behind every powerful princess,
06:47there's something lurking.
06:48Ooh.
06:51The Disney villain.
06:52Yes.
06:54Not only were they scary, but they were fabulously evil.
06:59OK, designers, we're in a new home with new rules.
07:03So for your first challenge, you will be forming fashion houses.
07:07Woo.
07:08Heidi, what are you doing to us?
07:11One house will be House of Princess,
07:14while the other will be the House of Villains.
07:17Mwah.
07:18Right now.
07:19Please stand on the side that your work is on.
07:22Right here, right here.
07:23Oh my god.
07:24Your house is the House of Princess.
07:27OK.
07:27No, I don't want to sew in all black.
07:29Yeah, me neither.
07:30That makes you House of Villains.
07:32Each house must create a cohesive collection.
07:36That's C word.
07:37For the very first runway show at the Enchanted United Palace.
07:42Ooh.
07:44You only have one day to create this look.
07:48Whew.
07:49You guys have 45 minutes to brainstorm, to sketch,
07:53and then you run off to Mood to get your fabric.
07:55Woo.
07:56Oh god, do you believe that?
07:58I'm so happy to be here, and I can't believe I'm saying this again.
08:01I'll see you on the runway.
08:02Yeah.
08:06Love you, Heidi.
08:08It's happening.
08:10I am having a moment of PTSD because my first challenge
08:15in season 19 was a group challenge.
08:19And now I'm in season 21, and it's also a group challenge.
08:23I'm getting hives.
08:25I'm sweating.
08:26I'm, like, having panic attacks.
08:29I cannot be eliminated first.
08:32Not again.
08:33Ah!
08:38OK.
08:38Here we go, guys.
08:39OK.
08:40All right.
08:41Our first challenge is a group challenge,
08:43so we have to sketch and figure out what we're going to have
08:46going on so we can bring these princess looks to life.
08:49It is game on.
08:51Let's go.
08:51What's that one thing that can thread all the collection?
08:55I think it's going to come down to the fabric selection.
08:57Fabric.
08:59I definitely got inspired by Ursula,
09:01and since I have a delicious, curvaceous girl as a model,
09:06I want to do a powerful suit fitted all the way
09:09below the knee, and then it's going to go out.
09:11I want to make sure her body looks, like, snatched.
09:14I think a villain has a good cape.
09:16Yeah.
09:17And if I can switch up the idea of having a cape,
09:20would we like that?
09:21Yes.
09:22I grew up on a farm.
09:23When I created Utica, it was a conduit for my queer artistic
09:28energy, because back on the farm, I am the gay community.
09:32I'm the mayor of Queerville.
09:35I mostly do these one-of-a-kind bespoke pieces
09:38for my community.
09:39But not everybody wants to ready-to-wear drag outfit,
09:43so I'm worried about that.
09:45It could get too costumey if I don't do it right.
09:49Oh.
09:51It has to be cohesive.
09:53So we should think of a theme, like a color palette.
09:56I work with my brother 24-7.
09:57So if I can win this for myself, it's proving myself.
10:02I'm excited to intimidate the other designers,
10:05and I'm excited to intimidate my brother.
10:07The color palette's great.
10:08Yeah, the fabric that I brought from home,
10:11it's literally that fabric, the butterfly, but it's in pink,
10:14and it has orangey tones.
10:18The butterflies are blue.
10:20So let's have the inspiration of our collection be butterfly.
10:24That's so butterfly.
10:26Butterfly, yes.
10:27Cool.
10:28Yes.
10:29OK, butterfly fabric is not going on my design.
10:33I'm really sorry.
10:34I don't know if it's Giving Princess.
10:36It's just not my style.
10:38So show me how you do it.
10:40My name is Madeline.
10:41My design point of view is inspired by historical fashion.
10:46I like collars.
10:47I like poofy sleeves.
10:49I like pants.
10:52I got to see this fabric, because if it doesn't speak to me,
10:55I'm not using it.
10:56That's fine.
10:56It's crazy.
10:57We're agreeing to this fabric that we've never seen.
11:01All right, guys.
11:01Here we go.
11:03What do you think?
11:05I am not feeling it.
11:06My name is Joan Madison.
11:10I'm years old.
11:13I'm a seasoned designer.
11:14I've worked in the garment industry.
11:16I've owned and operated my own bridal shop for the last 20 years.
11:20So this is my time.
11:22And I'm not here to use basic butterfly fabric.
11:25You know, I'm here to show them who's the queen.
11:28I feel like I want brighter.
11:30I want brighter, too.
11:31Yeah.
11:31Yeah.
11:32Antonio's butterfly fabric, it was pretty cool to me.
11:36But I already knew that I was going to do what I wanted to do anyway, so.
11:39Are you going to pull something from here?
11:43I don't even know.
11:45For me, the butterflies reprincess.
11:47But if they don't see it, they're crazy.
11:50All right, designer, $600 each, 45 minutes to shop.
11:59OK, go.
12:00Joseph McCray.
12:03Joseph McCray, you got to say the first with the last.
12:05Joseph McCray, you got to say the first with the last.
12:07Woo!
12:08Nah, this is too purple.
12:13Everybody's using this print.
12:15No, I'm the only one.
12:16But they all make sense.
12:18So we got sequin, we have velvet, we've got your print, we have tulle.
12:22Our team had a plan coming into this, but now we're running around the store, chicken
12:27with his head cut off.
12:28I'm like.
12:29And now we've got tweed.
12:31I don't know what's happening.
12:32Christian, this is 2025, baby.
12:34OK, listen, I work in 2025.
12:37I'm doing OK.
12:39Come, come, come, come.
12:40Villain team, can I please have you and beat it, please?
12:43We have to have a meeting right now.
12:44I've played this game before and I think at this point, I know what it takes and if someone
12:49has to take control, I think that person's going to be me.
12:52Great idea.
12:53Let's meet and make sure it makes sense together.
12:57I need to get lining, so I'll be back, OK?
13:00Lining?
13:01Lining.
13:02OK.
13:03Vijay is in her own bubble.
13:05She needs to be a team player.
13:07I don't know.
13:08My team is going everywhere, so I haven't been able to get them here.
13:11No meeting, hope it looks good.
13:17Fiddling, fiddling.
13:18Here we go.
13:21Did I cut enough?
13:23Can we sing Disney songs?
13:34It's a good thing that's not her day job.
13:38That fabric is gorge, take it, take off the file and put this on.
13:42Yeah, right?
13:43Don't you think?
13:43Yeah.
13:44That's gorgeous.
13:45I know, I think so too.
13:46Yeah.
13:47In season 19, I had a lot of ideas, it was really hard for me to edit down and I lost track
13:53of time.
13:54I don't want that to happen again.
13:55So this challenge, I just think Sleeping Beauty and tulle ball gown.
13:59I'm going to play with layers of tulle that I'm pamphleting.
14:05Casey, I remember her from season 19.
14:08Her aesthetic is very loud and yeah, it's pretty.
14:19Welcome to Project Runway season 21.
14:23My name is Vijay Floresca.
14:24Aside from being a fashion designer, I used to be a beauty queen.
14:30Here's my pageant wave.
14:35I was second runner up in Project Runway Philippines season 1 and first runner up in Dress My Tour.
14:42Being in those competitions will help me to finally win this competition.
14:47No more runner ups, but to win the competition.
14:51How's it going, Diva?
14:53This one, this one.
14:58I can't really get a read on Vijay.
15:00This is a team challenge and you have to be a little receptive to other people's critique
15:05and interest in what you're doing.
15:07She really is in her own zone and to us, it seems like she's being an asshole.
15:12Fire, we've got S-S-O-J-1.
15:17I know that I'm priceless, yeah, I can't even hide it.
15:21I know what you want, I know you like it.
15:24Let's do it!
15:26Woo!
15:27Let's get this party started!
15:29Get back to work.
15:32Color palettes coming together.
15:33And that transition couldn't be any more perfect.
15:36I'm feeling like my team is a winning team and I guess you can call me the team leader.
15:41Just because they actually fell in love with the fabric that I wanted to use for this challenge.
15:45But you know, I'm a Turner Strata, I can make anyone fall in love with anything.
15:50I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:51House of Princess, it's a lot of pink, it's a lot of ruffles, and there's some butterflies in there.
15:58It's not my flavor, I'm glad I'm not on Team Princess.
16:02Yeah, I hate it as well.
16:08Hey, BJ, how you doing?
16:09Huh?
16:11I think there's some people in my team that are not being team players.
16:16BJ's energy is very standoffish, it's a bit cheap.
16:20Why you don't have a machine?
16:21Huh?
16:22Where's your machine?
16:23Girl, these are all of our machines.
16:24No, I mean like, that was the one that I'm using.
16:26Okay, well I can use it too.
16:27Which one is the one that you were using?
16:29I'm using all of them because we're all using all of them.
16:31Okay, so you don't have like one of them?
16:32No, like everybody's using all of them.
16:35Come on, girl.
16:36You just decide to be lazy and not thread your own machine.
16:42This girl.
16:43The fight for the machine begins.
16:45Girl, relax.
16:47Like, you don't own the machines.
16:49You're using black thread, honey?
16:50I am as well.
16:51So...
16:52Which part of my story?
16:53I don't like that shit.
16:54This is competition.
16:55We're not here to meet friends.
16:56We're here to win this.
16:57And I think maybe Jesus wants to distract me.
16:59I'm not going to give him that power.
17:00I'm just going to ignore it.
17:01So this is my villain-in-law.
17:02Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
17:03You don't want to be in our bed tight.
17:04No, bitch.
17:05Hello.
17:06First day!
17:07How are you doing?
17:08Hey!
17:09There's a lot going on in here.
17:10Yes, it is.
17:11I don't like that shit.
17:12I don't like that shit.
17:13This is competition.
17:14We're not here to meet friends.
17:15We're here to win this.
17:16And I think maybe Jesus wants to distract me.
17:18I'm not going to give him that power.
17:19I'm just going to ignore it.
17:20Hey!
17:21There's a lot going on in here.
17:23Yes, it is.
17:28Casey.
17:29Yes.
17:30Hi.
17:31Hi.
17:32We meet again.
17:33I know.
17:34I already need a martini.
17:35All right.
17:36What's happening?
17:37She'll be like a cake dress and the flowers.
17:38She's a cake.
17:39I'm just thinking, you know, there's ways to make this feel a bit more modern and cool.
17:45Okay.
17:46Maybe this tool is in here and it's more of a tool overlay somewhere.
17:50The proportions and the fit will be important here.
17:53Yeah.
17:54The waist.
17:55Okay.
17:56For sure.
17:57There's just so many things you could do to make this feel really cool and interesting.
18:00Oh, no.
18:01I have done a waist like this before and I love asymmetrical.
18:04I do a lot of asymmetrical.
18:06So, I don't want to give that up.
18:08I think it's going to be gorgeous.
18:10Okay.
18:11Good luck.
18:13Wow.
18:14This is a little number, the Joseph McCray puffer.
18:19Beautiful shape.
18:20I like to play with shape a lot.
18:22I have a degree in electrical engineering.
18:23I think the engineering has very heavily influenced my design aesthetic.
18:27And you look at the structure and you look at the like silhouettes.
18:30So, I'm going to create a mean puffer jacket along with a wrap satin skirt in this midnight periwinkle repulsory fabric.
18:38People may not directly relate it to a princess, but listen, every princess needs a jacket.
18:43I'm feeling low-key Tinkerbell for real, for real.
18:45Making these cohesive is still part of the challenge.
18:48Don't just make a fabulous look for you.
18:50I know you don't want to listen.
18:52This is a skin situation, but.
18:54Wait, that's all out?
18:56No, it's not.
18:57Wait.
18:58Wait.
18:59Wait.
19:00This is Disney.
19:01I know.
19:02I know.
19:03Where are my pearls?
19:08Antonio, what is happening over here?
19:10So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to do this bubble dress laced up in the back.
19:14And then I want to do a coat over it with these two different colored tools all over the coat.
19:20So, it will be like a reveal.
19:22You're making kind of two dresses that you might not finish.
19:27Why can't this piece just be the moment?
19:29But this one's done already.
19:30I'm just waiting for my model.
19:31It's done because literally, like, my intern could sew that in 30 minutes.
19:35Like, that's not hard.
19:38What?
19:39What the ?
19:41Don't lose it completely.
19:42But, like, what else could this be?
19:43Could it have sculpture?
19:44Could it have some other element that anyone else has?
19:47Something's got to be cohesive.
19:49Like, don't you think the butterfly thing is because of you, right?
19:54Yeah.
19:55Okay.
19:56So, then you got to be amazing.
19:58I won't let you down.
19:59I feel like he kind of just, like, slapped me in the face.
20:03He was like, my intern can make that in 30 minutes.
20:05I'm like, okay.
20:07I'm a Gemini.
20:08I don't take critiques.
20:09I take critiques very, like, don't tell me what to do.
20:12But I'm going to step it up.
20:14Step me up.
20:15No.
20:19Yuchun, what is your work normally like?
20:22My work is more, like, very futuristic.
20:24Okay.
20:25Very edgy and very avant-garde.
20:27So, I think you should do that.
20:28Because this doesn't feel very futuristic.
20:30Okay.
20:31It doesn't feel that avant-garde.
20:32To be honest, I haven't made garments like this before.
20:35For my brand, I always, like, you know, making ready-to-wear.
20:38It's always very futuristic, very powerful.
20:41I'm here to challenge myself.
20:43My inspiration for this look is from Taka.
20:46So, I'm making this, like, tulle and lace dress with flowers and veins growing over.
20:52And with a veil.
20:54Please don't be ugly.
20:55Okay.
20:56Thank you, Christian.
20:57Jesus.
20:58Yes.
20:59What's happening?
21:00I'm basically doing a powerful coat dress.
21:02All right.
21:03I also have another dress underneath.
21:05Right.
21:06I think the challenge for you is how to make this feel more fashion.
21:11Like, something forward-thinking.
21:13I know in my head how the final product's gonna look.
21:17And I think it's elegant.
21:18Now, it's about how to make this feel, like, really modern.
21:22You know?
21:23Yeah, yeah.
21:25Okay.
21:26I would love a tour of the brain.
21:28Well, we know that a villain loves a cape.
21:31I'm doing my version of a cape.
21:34Where the cape is gonna connect to the top of the head.
21:37Love it.
21:38And then clean, simple, classic underneath.
21:42Mm-hmm.
21:43So, this is a pant and a top.
21:44Yep.
21:45Pant and a top.
21:46Then the twist.
21:47Oh, I love a twist.
21:48I will pattern in a curved glove pattern.
21:51I don't think they want it to feel too costum-y.
21:54So, I do think that that is important with your look.
21:59Because you have such a dramatic moment.
22:02Try not to get in my head about it.
22:03I'm used to grand drag on the stage.
22:07So, I am trying to edit.
22:10How's the team going?
22:11We've got some independent creatures.
22:13We do, of course.
22:14On our team.
22:15We have a bitchy one in here.
22:16You have a sassy one?
22:17Yeah.
22:18Ooh.
22:19This thing over there in the corner.
22:20Ooh.
22:21Vijay?
22:22Oh, yeah.
22:23Oh, yeah.
22:24She's what we call in the business.
22:25A .
22:26Mm-hmm.
22:27Interesting.
22:28Wow.
22:29I don't think there's a problem with being old .
22:32But when it's your own team, come on.
22:34We just have a rectangle and fabric draped on the mannequin.
22:38I don't know what, like, the vibe is.
22:41We have four more hours to finish everything.
22:43And then you will be sending your models to the Ulta Beauty Salon.
22:47And I'll see you guys in a little bit for model fittings.
22:50Don't turn into a pumpkin.
22:52Bye.
22:53Bye, Christian.
22:55We are meeting right now.
22:57I think the House of Villains didn't get enough great feedback from Christian Suriano.
23:02So I must demand a team meeting right now because I cannot go home on the first challenge.
23:07Let's step back.
23:08It doesn't look cohesive.
23:10We need to add an element.
23:12I think the cohesiveness is all about the flowers that we have.
23:15It is floral, right?
23:16You're also the only one with lace, so we have to incorporate lace somewhere.
23:20I don't have more lace at all.
23:22Well, you need to cut a little piece, so it needs to be cohesive.
23:25Have you ever made a collection?
23:27Yeah.
23:29Being cohesive is making it that it looks like it's from the same collection and same design.
23:34I know, but why lace?
23:35No one has lace.
23:36That's what I'm saying.
23:37No one has this leather.
23:38No one has this velvet.
23:39I'm adding velvet on mine.
23:41I'm adding your flower as well.
23:43Mr. Yushin, this is a team challenge.
23:46I'm not meaning taking his lace to, like, sabotage him.
23:48I'm just trying to do the best that I can.
23:50For the red, I mean, it's beautiful, but it seems like we don't have red for any other looks.
23:54I think it's okay.
23:55Yeah, yeah.
23:56I think if you do, like, a red top of color in there.
23:58I also am very competitive in there.
23:59I want all black.
24:00I don't really understand why I have to devote my lace.
24:03Why he's doing this to me?
24:04Well, he's the biggest problem in the team.
24:07I'm just saying, if we want to make the collection cohesive, you're the only one with lace.
24:13Wow, Yushin, he's definitely being a little shady bitch.
24:17If you're not here to be a team player, there's going to be a problem throughout this whole competition.
24:22Today's the first runway, and I'm just so scared what's going to happen.
24:30Not myself, but for other designers.
24:32She's part of team villains, so it's just slicked back.
24:37I want something like, you know, crying, smoky.
24:40Okay, thank you.
24:41You stand right here.
24:42This is great.
24:43Look at the proportions.
24:44Look, you can't see her waist.
24:45You've got nothing.
24:46But I'm not going to make her look like a pinata.
24:49But that's kind of what it looks like.
24:51Oh, my God.
24:52I'm running out of time, and then I have to do a belt for this coat dress.
24:55I didn't want to have her look like a loofah.
24:57Silence!
25:06Where's the model?
25:07Oh, my God.
25:08This is more stressful than Cinderella at the ball.
25:11You are still sewing?
25:13No, this one, like...
25:14Mmm!
25:15Cueing Heidi in three, two...
25:21Hi, everybody!
25:22Hi!
25:23Hi!
25:25All right, designers.
25:26That's it.
25:27That's time.
25:28You are coming.
25:29Come on.
25:30Please meet our Project Runway judges.
25:32My longtime friend, editor-in-chief of Elle magazine, Nina Garcia.
25:38Serious.
25:39Baby, that woman is powerful.
25:42I hope Nina Garcia sees my look, and she, like, sees me in my princess.
25:47CFDA award-winning stylist and image architect, La Roche.
25:53I'm thrilled.
25:54La Roche.
25:55Incredible celebrity stylist.
25:57He's worked with Zendaya.
25:59La Roche can tear me a new one whenever the man wants.
26:02Okay?
26:03And please meet again our mentor, Christian Siriano.
26:07Welcome to our first show of the season of Project Runway.
26:10As you know, in fashion, one day you're in, and the next day, you're out.
26:14And in my case, you're back in again.
26:20For our first challenge, our designers formed fashion houses.
26:23Two teams of six designers creating cohesive collections inspired by Disney princesses or Disney villains.
26:32Let's start the show!
26:42I feel so confident.
26:44This dress is really giving me a vibe of cool, modern.
26:49I would walk out of here without happy.
26:51I'm telling you, that girl is a villain.
26:53You can wear it now.
26:54It's not to cost me.
26:55I think it's beautiful.
26:59I'm a wizard gonna pull an ace.
27:01Seeing my look go down the runway, I'm really happy.
27:04I'm proud of it.
27:08Just to see the scarf dragging, so it gave some kind of sense of elegance and dramatic effect.
27:13The shape of my gown looks so clean and elegant.
27:19I love the way the light hits the velvet.
27:22The collar is exciting.
27:25It gives drama.
27:26It's made well, too.
27:27I couldn't be more pleased that this is the first piece that the judges see for me.
27:34I am so happy she's giving me a villain vibe.
27:39The leather is moving.
27:42The pants is well made.
27:44Perfectly tailored for her.
27:46It's like I'm so speechless.
27:49Wow.
27:50I'm pinching myself, seeing my look going down the runway.
27:53It's perfect, chic, and I feel like she looks like the villain.
27:59Mom, don't put your curse on me.
28:00I know.
28:01This look is the magnum opus of my mix between grand and sophisticated.
28:14Look at the detail of the glove.
28:16It's so witchy.
28:18It's harnessing wind, and it just feels like I have created something that is truly special.
28:25I hope that they get a good meal from what I'm serving.
28:30Yes!
28:37I feel the Joseph McCray princess gracing the space.
28:42I just cannot take my eyes off with my girl, because she is so beautiful.
28:46And I did that.
28:47Did you say a daytime princess?
28:48Daytime.
28:49You're going to lunch.
28:50I think it looks cute.
28:55I think she looks good.
28:56I feel good, actually.
28:58I just am not the kind of person to be like, oh, my God.
29:02Whoever did this knows how to sew.
29:03The construction is really great.
29:07When my model walks down the runway, it's definitely giving modern Jasmine for sure.
29:12And I see emotions being provoked when she's walking, and that's what I want.
29:17So I'm feeling confident about my look.
29:19It's a vibe.
29:22I'm feeling emotional and happy of the work.
29:24Seeing my model in my beautiful butterfly fabric that I brought from home makes me feel so nurtured, love, and accomplished.
29:33Is that camouflage?
29:35It's like a butterfly print.
29:36She is just floating in my gown, and it's exactly the feeling I wanted.
29:46It is modern princess feeling.
29:49I love how the tool floats.
29:52It's like a little dance happening on the fabric.
29:56I feel very proud.
29:57Seeing my princess slash queen garment, whoo, I think she definitely owned the space.
30:06I knew that it was over.
30:12Designers, congratulations.
30:13That was a very special first show.
30:16Well done.
30:18Now we have to see which house has a fairytale ending, and which one just ends.
30:23My heart is racing, and I love my look.
30:26I'm sure the judges want to see more of me.
30:28I mean, what is there not to love of Antonio, right?
30:31But you never know.
30:32It's anyone's game.
30:40Welcome to your home away from home, the runway.
30:43Amazing.
30:45This was a great first challenge.
30:47And applause to all of you guys, because really everyone did a great job.
30:51But we're going to start nitpicking now.
30:54Yeah.
30:56We have scored your designs, and only one house has risen to the top.
31:01The best look will come from the winning house, while the eliminated designer will come from the losing house.
31:09The winning house for this challenge is...
31:14House of Villains.
31:15This team was a hard one to work with.
31:17But we won.
31:18We won.
31:19We won.
31:20We won.
31:21Unfortunately, that means House of Princes.
31:22You are the losing house.
31:24You can leave the runway.
31:25We'll talk to you later.
31:27Oh my God.
31:28I didn't think I belong here.
31:30I am shocked.
31:31What just happened?
31:32This year is horrible.
31:33Oh.
31:34So congratulations.
31:35You guys are winning a house.
31:36Your clothes really spoke to the challenge, but also did in a way that felt really modern.
31:40That separated you from the other team.
31:41Your collection at least looked cohesive.
31:45All right.
31:46Let's talk to the top three.
31:47Our first team is a big one.
31:48I didn't think I belong here.
31:49I didn't think I belong here.
31:50I am shocked.
31:51What just happened?
31:52This year is horrible.
31:53Oh.
31:54So congratulations.
31:55You guys are winning a house.
31:56Your clothes really spoke to the challenge, but also did in a way that felt really modern.
32:01That separated you from the other team.
32:02Your collection at least looked cohesive.
32:08Let's talk to the top three of our favorite looks.
32:13Ethan.
32:14Ta-da!
32:17We also love Yuchin.
32:21And we had a little bit of a debate over the third spot.
32:26It is Jesus.
32:31Yes.
32:32Alex, Angelo, DJ, you're safe.
32:37You're safe.
32:38And you can leave the runway.
32:39Thank you so much.
32:40Thank you, baby.
32:43Thank you, guys.
32:44All right.
32:45Let's bring out your models.
32:49You were our three favorite looks tonight.
32:52All right, Yuchin.
32:53Let's talk about your looks.
32:55To me, this is now.
32:56I love this, especially now everything is about sheer.
32:59And so I feel like you're right on what's happening right now.
33:01And she looks beautiful.
33:03I would wear this too.
33:04It's gorgeous.
33:05I really like your dress.
33:06It's young.
33:07It's sexy.
33:08It's gothic.
33:09It's evil.
33:10I can definitely see Jenna Ortega in this dress at a premiere of Wednesday Addams.
33:16A slight change.
33:17I would have switched the styling with the boots, but I think it is a really, really great dress.
33:21And I think it is very commercial.
33:24The flower in the back is curious, but I love the ruching that you did on the bodice.
33:30If we change this black into pink, you could be in the princess.
33:35Yeah, thank you.
33:36Just say.
33:37Yeah.
33:38I'm versatile.
33:39All right.
33:40Oh, me too.
33:44Ethan, we're going to talk to you next.
33:45Hello, distinguished panel of judges.
33:48Okay.
33:49Your model is actually quite petite.
33:52However, she felt grandiose.
33:55It was like this dark shadow had just slithered through the stage.
34:00It wasn't just the clothes.
34:03It was a feeling.
34:04The construction was really, really good.
34:07The velvet was a great idea.
34:09Velvet always looked so rich.
34:11There was a little things that I noticed on the cape.
34:14There was a scene that I wish I didn't see.
34:16And a little bit of the hem is puckering, but you did such a beautiful job.
34:20Bravo, my love.
34:21It's giving me villain, but it's not giving me costume.
34:24I feel like if you don't have this cape on, you wear this jumpsuit underneath.
34:28It's like modern.
34:29It's cool.
34:30I would want to wear it.
34:31I love the nails because this little detail, I was like, yes.
34:36And she looks stunning.
34:38All right, Jesus.
34:40Jesus, it's so lovely to see you again.
34:43It was bold of you to choose a color when everybody else stuck to black.
34:50I think that's why you're up here is because in a sea of black, to have this fabrication
34:55that feels really rich and really luxe was really important.
34:58For me, it was very important to make her feel sexy.
35:01And I think that I embody that.
35:03I love the coat.
35:04I think it's fabulous.
35:06I hated it.
35:07I was the only one I was out judged.
35:10Hate is such a big word.
35:11It's a short word.
35:12It's only four letters.
35:13I'm sorry if you hate the coat.
35:16I hate the whole look.
35:21Aw, don't get emotional.
35:24We liked it.
35:26I love how your model looks.
35:28She feels regal.
35:30We need ambitious designers.
35:32Yes.
35:33Guys, I have to disagree with everything Nina said.
35:37To me, she doesn't look cool.
35:39She doesn't look young.
35:41She looks like a Nigerian auntie.
35:43I have clients of all different sizes, ages.
35:46And one thing you have to care about is the placement of the breast.
35:51Then you could have done something to lift the breast a little bit more.
35:55If you're going to say that you want to make a curvy woman feel beautiful and powerful and all those things,
36:00do you have to do it in your design?
36:03Does anyone disagree with any of that?
36:05Yeah.
36:06A lot of the times I feel like designers put a curvy girl into something so loose that we can't see the beautiful curves.
36:13Then I think you look beautiful.
36:15Okay.
36:16All right.
36:17Now it's time to name our winner.
36:19Congratulations, Ethan.
36:20You're the winner of this challenge.
36:21Yes.
36:22Shut up.
36:23Crown me, baby.
36:24Because the queen is on top this week.
36:41Yurika won.
36:42Ethan.
36:43Ethan.
36:44Ethan.
36:45Ethan.
36:46Ethan.
36:47Ethan.
36:48Ethan.
36:49Ethan.
36:50Ah!
36:51Feels right.
36:52La Roche was rocked.
36:53I'm so shocked right now.
36:55Shocked.
36:56Shocked.
36:57Shocked.
36:58It feels like I'm not on the top, even though I should be celebrating being on the top.
37:02I feel a little attacked.
37:05I'm gagged.
37:06But, and I think it's very critical for me moving forward to really listen to what the judges have to say.
37:13All I have to do is prove him wrong.
37:15What was the feedback for yours?
37:17What did they have to say?
37:18Oh, good.
37:19Yeah?
37:20And does it really get some, like, you know, very good advices, you know?
37:22But my advice to you is through this challenge, like, every time I would be like, oh, can we do this?
37:27You're like, no, no, no.
37:28Just, sometimes you do have, sometimes you have to listen.
37:32But, girl, I have to say what I'm saying.
37:34So, remember you talking about my lace?
37:36You're saying everyone take a piece of the lace from you.
37:39Did I say that?
37:40Everybody take a piece of his lace?
37:41We have the camera on there.
37:43Okay, bro.
37:44It was a team challenge, and that was just a request.
37:47I have my own opinion.
37:48I'm a very mature designer, so nobody needs to tell me anything unless I want to take it, okay?
37:53You're getting really offended.
37:55Really is throwing me off.
37:57All right, all right, all right.
37:58Like, seriously?
37:59Mm-hmm.
38:00You know what you're doing, girl.
38:01No, I don't know what I'm doing.
38:02You don't know.
38:03No.
38:04You don't know.
38:05Mm-mm.
38:06Child.
38:07Child.
38:08All right, let's bring out House of Princess.
38:17House of Princess, you made our least favorite collection.
38:20It was not cohesive.
38:22Unfortunately, there were three looks that were less Disney and more dismal.
38:28Belania, Madeline, Joan, you're safe and you can leave the runway.
38:35Thank you so much.
38:37Woo!
38:38Woo!
38:45Unfortunately, that means Casey, Joseph, and Antonio.
38:49You had the three bottom looks.
38:53Am I being punk?
39:02Am I being punk?
39:04No.
39:05Okay.
39:06Mm-mm.
39:07All right, let's bring out your models.
39:16Joseph, we're going to start with you first.
39:18Like, I did not see the inspo.
39:20I knew that that was you, but I just don't get Princess from this thing.
39:24I wish that you would have picked Elaine.
39:27You have volume, but then you have her wrapped up in this skirt that seems to be strangling her.
39:35It's a question of proportions.
39:37You're playing with too many.
39:39I disagree.
39:40I enjoy the way you play with proportions.
39:43I like the coat.
39:44He popped that coat off and it was a sweetheart bodice dress.
39:47But it isn't.
39:48I like it.
39:49I think she looks really cool.
39:51I can see some of my clients wearing this.
39:53We agreed to disagree.
39:54Yeah, we agreed to disagree.
39:57Can she turn around?
40:00Yeah.
40:01No, the back isn't great.
40:02This is not.
40:03I'm sorry.
40:04The back is a couch cushion.
40:06Okay, Antonio.
40:07If you had asked ChatGBT to help you make a John Batista Valley for $100, then that's what that look was.
40:15After Christian's critiques, I did change my look a few times.
40:19And there is another dress underneath.
40:22Is the dress still underneath or no?
40:23Yeah.
40:24Let's see it.
40:25Oh, yeah.
40:26Yeah.
40:27Well, Christian told me his intern can make that dress in 30 minutes.
40:29Blame it on everything on Christian.
40:31I just think this dress underneath an intern could make it in 30 minutes.
40:35It's a tube dress.
40:36You couldn't have shown that by itself.
40:38But, you know, why didn't you let it be open?
40:40I don't know why you put the belt on it.
40:43I didn't know you were going to cover up the butterflies completely.
40:45It's better this way.
40:47Yeah, because with that cute little mini dress under it, at least you see her body.
40:51It's charming.
40:53But this is not how we saw it.
40:54She just looked like a big loofah.
40:56When Christian was criticized, I was like, don't think it's going to be a pinata.
40:59Stop blaming it on Christian.
41:01You're here now.
41:02No, we're not blaming Christian.
41:03I wrote some emails.
41:04I'm a Gemini and I don't like people telling me what to do.
41:08And I was like, you're an adult.
41:10You're going to listen to Christian.
41:11He's here for a reason.
41:12He's your mentor.
41:13And I did listen to him.
41:14And that's why I changed my look three times.
41:15And, you know, you pushed me to be better.
41:18The inspo of the butterfly comes from which princess?
41:22Which princess?
41:23I mean, every princess.
41:25Antonio, but you're being so defensive.
41:28No, I'm not.
41:29We're just trying to understand your work.
41:30You are.
41:31I'm trying to explain myself.
41:32I'm sorry if I'm coming out.
41:33Right.
41:34But I don't think there's any reason to be defensive.
41:35No, I'm not being defensive at all.
41:36I'm just explaining myself.
41:37Sorry if I'm coming out.
41:38I think Lena's right to call that out.
41:40I think you are being defensive and also a little bit rude.
41:44It's okay to be criticized and to be, you know, let down by the criticism.
41:51But to kind of like throw it back.
41:54Your response has really been really quite nasty.
41:57I'm just letting you know.
41:58Okay.
41:59One girl to another.
42:00Maybe it's my Latina side.
42:01Maybe.
42:06Next.
42:08Casey, let's talk about your look.
42:11I really love this Jacquard.
42:13And I wish that all this other stuff would disappear.
42:17I don't know.
42:18To me, it looks like a nightgown.
42:20You know, it's very lackluster in terms of like shape and everything.
42:24And what you then wrapped around to me looks like an afterthought.
42:27Can she turn around?
42:29Yes.
42:30The ribbon is what I hated.
42:31Yeah.
42:32What if I stood back?
42:33A hundred percent.
42:34I want to see like more design.
42:36It's not inspiring.
42:37I love the deep plunge.
42:38I just think it was a miss because you had everything to make something so beautiful and so fairytale-like.
42:46And you kind of missed it.
42:48I hear you.
42:49All right, designers, we have to make a decision.
42:52You can leave the runway.
42:54This is so much fun.
42:55I love this job.
42:56I can tell.
42:57I don't know if they're going to make it out alive at the end.
43:10Oh, Casey.
43:11What's happening?
43:12You're good.
43:13You're fine.
43:14But you know what?
43:15You're fine.
43:16I'm still willing to drive.
43:17Yeah.
43:18I guess we can all agree that Joseph is not going home, right?
43:23There's so much going on, but the color was really beautiful.
43:27The combination of fabrics were very wonderful.
43:30He's like, I'm making what I make.
43:33Couches.
43:34Casey, Nina, what did you think?
43:36The dress was a complete mess.
43:38It was horrible.
43:39It was a mess.
43:40And boring too.
43:41It literally like she took a staple gun.
43:42It was just like.
43:43No, it was awful.
43:44I'm an adult and I'm going to take criticism about bitch.
43:46When you're putting words in my mouth, like.
43:48Antonio, what were your thoughts?
43:50That dress when he opened it up was really cute.
43:52Like 30 minutes to make that dress.
43:54Yeah, but the coat made.
43:55I like that it was a coat.
43:56I know.
43:57But what if he didn't have that coat?
43:59Yeah.
44:00No.
44:01He needed that kind of.
44:02He's like, whoa, your attitude.
44:03I'm like, oh, bitch.
44:04That attitude is so bad.
44:07Then he said, it's probably just the Latino in me.
44:09Girl.
44:10I was like, yeah, all right.
44:13That's not an excuse.
44:14So with my Nina, baby.
44:15Yeah.
44:16You could be very talented, but if you have a bad attitude
44:20and you can't work with others in this industry,
44:23we have seen it.
44:24Bad attitude is a problem.
44:27I'm so proud of myself.
44:30It's just very emotional, you know, and intense.
44:34Like, it's just intense.
44:37I just feel like I'm in shock a bit right now.
44:41Like, I actually really loved my dress.
44:44Being in this position again.
44:46I never thought I'd be in the bottom three.
44:48At this stage of the competition again, like,
44:50after being eliminated on episode one of another season,
44:53like, it just feels like a bad joke.
44:55I don't want to go home.
45:00They're so mean.
45:01Why am I here?
45:04I didn't think my design was the worst,
45:08but being in the bottom three, I feel, like, shattered.
45:11Do I really need to be here?
45:12Do I really need this?
45:13It's like, let's just go home.
45:15So do we say home the bad dress or the bad attitude?
45:20I want to go home.
45:23Ooh.
45:24If I say my attitude's gonna be worse.
45:29It's not worth.
