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.
01:09All right, designers, that's time.
01:11You are still sewing?
01:12Mm.
01:13I want to go home.
01:14Are you nuts?
01:14I want this so bad.
01:16I want to be what's up.
01:23In 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.
01:37A spread in Elle magazine.
01:40And a life-changing mentorship with the CFDA.
01:43This is Project Runway.
01:45It's on me.
01:46Oh, shit.
02:01Yo, uh...
02:03Yo, we on Project Runway for real.
02:05Welcome to Project Runway, a.k.a. The Joseph McCray Show.
02:09Ooh!
02:11Listen, it's Joseph McCray.
02:12It's one word.
02:13Do not break it up.
02:14First and last together.
02:15And that's it.
02:19Uh-oh.
02:20Hola!
02:20You got a designer and a model.
02:24I'm a tall bitch.
02:32Hey, Ziva.
02:33How are you?
02:33I'm Joseph McCray.
02:34I'm Ethan, but you may recognize me as Utica from RuPaul's Dry Grease.
02:39You think I can eat that?
02:40Yeah, you can cue on it.
02:42Girl, this is crystals.
02:43Oh, we got another one!
02:44Hey, Ziva.
02:46How are you?
02:46Hola.
02:47Ethan, nice to meet you.
02:48Vijay.
02:49Vijay, I'm Joseph McCray.
02:50Hi, Joseph.
02:51No, no, no.
02:52You got to say that first to that.
02:52So...
02:53Hi.
02:54If I want...
02:54Hold on, Vijay, it's Joseph McCray.
02:56Okay, Joseph, right?
02:57Joseph McCray.
02:58Joseph Mac...
02:59McCray.
02:59McCray.
03:00Don't even split it.
03:00Okay, Joseph McCray.
03:01Boom.
03:02Easy, right?
03:05Hola.
03:05Hola.
03:05Hi.
03:06I'm Joseph McCray.
03:09Hey.
03:10Madeline, nice to meet you.
03:11Madeline, pleasure.
03:12Hey.
03:13Hola.
03:15Hi.
03:15Bitches, I am back.
03:18Jesus, nice to meet you.
03:19I'm Jesus Estrada from Project Runway Season 7.
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, about my taste level.
03:45I'm going to win, just so you know.
03:46So I hope you bitches are ready.
03:48Yes.
03:49What is going on?
03:51Girl.
03:51I'm Vijay.
03:52I'm Joan.
03:53Nice to meet you.
03:54Joan, nice to meet you, Joan.
03:55Hey, guys.
03:56Hey, what's up?
03:58Hi.
03:59My name is Yuchen.
03:59Hi.
04:00Hi.
04:01My name is Kasey Black.
04:05I was on Season 19 of Project Runway, and I left on Episode 1.
04:13I'm like cry laughing.
04:15Kasey, you are out.
04:17Being eliminated in the first challenge, I didn't get to show who I was as a person, as a designer, as an artist.
04:24So I'm just hoping to prove who I am.
04:26Hi.
04:27Hi.
04:27Hi.
04:28Hi.
04:28Hi.
04:28Hi.
04:29Hi.
04:32Honey, you look like you're ready.
04:34I mean, born ready, baby.
04:35Yes.
04:36Oh, shit, bitch.
04:38Are you guys ready to double the travel?
04:42Is that my twin brother?
04:43Oh, shit.
04:44Oh, shit.
04:45Oh, shit.
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?
04:59They want me here, though.
05:01You want to tell them that they want this side?
05:03Yeah, that's my side.
05:04Is that going to be a fight?
05:06Hi, I'm Antonio Estrada.
05:08I'm the winner of Project Runway Season 21, and this is the first runner-up.
05:11No, I'm kidding.
05:13What's he on season seven?
05:14No, this is his first time.
05:17I waited 15 years, we're here.
05:19Yes, there you go.
05:22And I always knew I wanted to do fashion.
05:23It was my dream to be on Parcher 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.
05:40Six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
05:41We're done, we're done.
05:42This is an act.
05:43We're done, yeah, 12.
05:46Here you go.
05:47Yeah.
05:49Yeah.
05:53Welcome home, Mama.
05:54Yes.
05:55Yes.
05:56Designers, 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.
06:0321.
06:04Yes.
06:05This is truly a magical place where dreams do come true.
06:10And no one knows this more than the world-renowned designer
06:13and icon next to me, Christian Siriano.
06:17Yes.
06:18I'm good.
06:23So you want to know your first challenge?
06:25Absolutely.
06:26Absolutely.
06:27Not me.
06:28Okay, if you ask any designer where they first fell in love with fashion, I think one answer
06:33comes up more than any other.
06:35The Disney princess.
06:36Ooh!
06:37The princesses have inspired so many designers for decades.
06:42And as you know, behind every powerful princess...
06:45There's something lurking.
06:46Ooh!
06:47The Disney villain.
06:48Yes!
06:49Not only were they scary, but they were fabulously evil.
06:54Okay, designers, we're in a new home with new rules.
07:00So for your first challenge, you will be forming fashion houses.
07:07Woo!
07:08Heidi, what are you doing to us?
07:10One house will be house of princess, while the other will be the house of villains.
07:17Oh!
07:18I know.
07:19Please stand on the side that your work is on.
07:21Right here.
07:22Right here.
07:23Oh my god.
07:24Your house is the house of princess.
07:26Okay!
07:27No, I don't want to sew in all black.
07:28Jeff, be neither.
07:29That makes you house of villains.
07:31Yes.
07:32Each house must create a cohesive collection.
07:35That's C word.
07:36For the very first runway show at the Enchanted United Palace.
07:41Ooh!
07:42Ooh!
07:43We only have one day to create this look.
07:47Whew!
07:48You guys have 45 minutes to brainstorm, to sketch.
07:52And then you run off to Moo to get your fabric.
07:54Woo!
07:55Oh god!
07:56Do you believe that?
07:57I'm so happy to be here, and I can't believe I'm saying this again.
08:00I'll see you on the runway!
08:06Love you, Heidi.
08:07What's happening?
08:10I am having a moment of PTSD because my first challenge in season 19 was a group challenge.
08:18And now I'm in season 21, and it's also a group challenge.
08:22I'm getting hives.
08:24I'm sweating.
08:25I'm like having panic attacks.
08:28I cannot be eliminated first.
08:31Not again.
08:32Okay.
08:33Here we go, guys.
08:34Okay.
08:35All right.
08:36Our first challenge is a group challenge, so we have to sketch and figure out what we're
08:45going to have going on so we can bring these princess looks to life.
08:49It is game on.
08:50Let's go.
08:51What's that one thing that can thread all the collection?
08:54I think it's going to come down to the fabric selection.
08:57Fabric.
08:58I definitely got inspired by Ursula.
09:01And since I have a delicious, curvaceous girl as a model, I want to do a powerful suit,
09:08fit it all the way below the knee, and then it's going to go out.
09:11I want to make sure her body looks like snatch.
09:13I think a villain has a good cape.
09:16Yeah.
09:17And if I can switch up the idea of having a cape, would we like that?
09:20Yes.
09:21I grew up on a farm.
09:23When I created Utica, it was a conduit for my queer artistic energy.
09:29Because back on the farm, I am the gay community.
09:31I'm the mayor of Queerville.
09:34I mostly do these one-of-a-kind bespoke pieces for 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.
09:52So we should think of a theme, like a color palette.
09:55I work with my brother 24-7.
09:57So if I can win this for myself, it's proving myself.
10:01I'm excited to intimidate the other designers.
10:04And I'm excited to intimidate my brother.
10:06The color palette's great.
10:08The fabric that I brought from home, it's literally that fabric.
10:12The butterfly, but it's in pink and it has orangey tones.
10:17The butterflies are blue.
10:19So let's have the inspiration of our collection be butterfly.
10:23That's so butterfly.
10:25Butterfly, yes.
10:26Cool.
10:27Yes.
10:28Um, okay.
10:29Butterfly fabric is not going on my design.
10:32I'm really sorry.
10:33I don't know if it's giving princess.
10:35It's just not my style.
10:37So show me how you do it.
10:39My name is Madeline.
10:41My design point of view is inspired by historical fashion.
10:45I like collars.
10:46I like poofy sleeves.
10:48I like pants.
10:51I got to see this fabric because if it doesn't speak to me, I'm not using it.
10:55That's fine.
10:56It's crazy.
10:57We're agreeing to this fabric that we've never seen.
11:00All right, guys.
11:01Here we go.
11:04I am not feeling it.
11:07My name is Joan Madison.
11:09I'm years old.
11:12I'm a seasoned designer.
11:13I've worked in the garment industry.
11:15I've owned and operated my own bridal shop for the last 20 years.
11:19So this is my time.
11:21And 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.
11:29I want brighter too.
11:30Yeah.
11:31Yeah.
11:32Antonio's butterfly fabric.
11:33It was pretty cool to me.
11:35But I already knew that I was going to do what I wanted to do.
11:37Anyway, so.
11:40Are you going to pull something from here?
11:42I don't even know.
11:44For me, the butterflies reprincess.
11:46But if they don't yet, they're great.
11:48You see it?
11:49They're crazy.
11:55All right, designer.
11:56$600 each.
11:5745 minutes to shop.
11:59Okay, go.
12:02Joseph McCrae.
12:03Joseph McCrae.
12:04You got to say the first with the last.
12:05Joseph McCrae, you got to say the first with the last.
12:11Nah, this is too purple.
12:13Everybody's using this print.
12:14No, I'm the only one.
12:15But they all make sense.
12:17We got sequin.
12:18We have velvet.
12:19We've got your print.
12:20We have tulle.
12:21Our team had a plan coming into this.
12:23But now we're running around the store.
12:26Chicken with his head cut off.
12:27I'm like.
12:28And now we've got tweed.
12:30I don't know what's happening.
12:31Christian, this is 2025, baby.
12:33Okay.
12:34Listen, I work in 2025.
12:36I'm doing okay.
12:38Come, come, come, come.
12:39Villain team.
12:40Can I please have you and beat it, please?
12:42We have to have a meeting right now.
12:43I played this game before.
12:45And I think at this point, I know what it takes.
12:48And if someone has to take control, I think that person's going to be me.
12:51Great idea.
12:52Let's meet.
12:53Make sure it makes sense together.
12:55I need to get lining.
12:57So I'll be back.
12:58Okay.
12:59Lining?
13:00Lining.
13:01Okay.
13:02Yeah.
13:03Okay.
13:04Vijay is in her own bubble.
13:05She needs to be a team player.
13:06I don't know.
13:07My team is going everywhere.
13:09So I haven't been able to get them here.
13:10No meeting.
13:11Hope it looks good.
13:16Fiddling, fiddling.
13:17Here we go.
13:18Did I cut enough?
13:22Can we sing Disney songs?
13:34It's a good thing that's not her day job.
13:38That fabric is gorgeous.
13:39Take it, take off the file.
13:41Yeah, right?
13:42Don't you think?
13:43Yeah.
13:44That's gorgeous.
13:45I know.
13:46I think so too.
13:47When I was in season 19, I had a lot of ideas.
13:50It was really hard for me to edit down.
13:52And I lost track of time.
13:53I 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 pan fleeting.
14:04Jasey, right?
14:05I spent it all for space.
14:06Juicy.
14:07Put your hair to xD
14:09Alright.
14:10The wholeMo gand
14:19We have a bad sign.
14:19Vicefrom serie BG
14:22Dec may be discounted as a lot of image.
14:23Didn't use all the best cards.
14:24Lifeblocks are free.
14:25Its pretty fancy.
14:26You could give a big difference.
14:27I used to be a beauty queen.
14:32Here's my pageant wave.
14:35I was second runner-up in Project Runway Philippines
14:39season one, and first runner-up in Dress My Tour.
14:42Being in those competitions will help me
14:45to finally win this competition.
14:47No more runner-ups, but to win the competition.
14:51How's it drawn, Diva?
14:53This one, this one.
14:57I can't really get a read on VJ.
15:00This is a team challenge, and you have to be
15:03a 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,
15:10it seems like she's being an asshole.
15:25Let's do it.
15:26Let's get this party.
15:28Party!
15:29Get back to work.
15:32Color palettes coming together.
15:33Yeah.
15:34And that transition couldn't be any more perfect.
15:36I'm feeling like my team is a winning team,
15:39and I guess you can call me the team leader,
15:41just because they actually fell in love with the fabric
15:43that I wanted to use for this challenge.
15:45But you know, I'm a Turner Strata.
15:47I can make anyone fall in love with anything.
15:49I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:50I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:51I think we're doing it.
15:52House of Princess.
15:53It's a lot of pink.
15:54It's a lot of ruffles, and there's some butterflies in there.
15:58It's not my flavor.
15:59I'm glad I'm not on Team Princess.
16:01Yeah, I hate it as well.
16:07Hey, BJ.
16:08How you doing?
16:09Huh?
16:10I think there's some people in my team
16:13that are not being team players.
16:15BJ's energy is very standoffish, and it's a bit cheap.
16:20Why you don't have a machine?
16:21Where's your machine?
16:22Girl, these are all of our machines.
16:24No, I mean, like, that was the one that I'm using.
16:25Okay, well, I can use it too.
16:26Which one is the one that you were using?
16:28That's why I'm asking.
16:29I'm using all of them, because we're all using all of them.
16:30I'm almost done.
16:31So you don't have, like, one of them?
16:32No!
16:33Like, everybody's using all of them.
16:34Come on, girl.
16:35Um...
16:38You 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, so...
16:52Bitch, better not start.
16:54I don't like that shit.
16:55This is a competition.
16:56We're not here to meet friends.
16:58We're here to win this.
17:00And I think maybe Jesus wants to distract me.
17:02I'm not gonna give him that power.
17:04I'm just gonna ignore it.
17:06So this is my villain-in-law.
17:09You don't want to be in our bed tight.
17:11No, bitch.
17:17Hello.
17:18First day!
17:19How are you?
17:21There's a lot going on in here.
17:23Yes, it is.
17:27Casey.
17:28Yes.
17:29Hi.
17:30Hi!
17:31We meet again.
17:32I know.
17:33I already need a martini.
17:34All right.
17:35What's happening?
17:36She'll be like a cake dress and the flowers.
17:37She's a cake.
17:38I'm just thinking, you know, there's ways to make this feel a bit more modern and cool.
17:44Okay.
17:45Maybe this tool isn't here and it's more of a tool overlay somewhere.
17:49The 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.
17:59Oh, no.
18:00I 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.
18:12Wow.
18:13This is a little number.
18:17The Joseph McCray puffer.
18:19Beautiful shape.
18:20I like to play with shape a lot.
18:21Yeah.
18:22I have a degree in electrical engineering.
18:23I think the engineering has very heavily influenced my design aesthetic and you look
18:27at the structure and you look at the like silhouettes.
18:29So, I'm going to create a mean puffer jacket along with a wrap satin skirt in this midnight
18:36periwinkle upholstery fabric.
18:38People may not directly relate it to a princess, but listen, every princess need 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?
18:55No, it's not.
18:56Wait.
18:59This is Disney.
19:00I know.
19:01I know.
19:02Where are my pearls?
19:03Antonio, what is happening over here?
19:09So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to do this bubble dress laced up in the back.
19:13And then I want to do a coat over it with these two different colored tools all over the coat.
19:19So, it will be like a reveal.
19:21You're making kind of two dresses that you might not finish.
19:26Why can't this piece just be the moment?
19:28But this one's done already.
19:29I'm just waiting for my model.
19:30It's done because literally, like, my intern could sew that in 30 minutes.
19:35Like, that's not hard.
19:38What?
19:39What the ?
19:40Don't lose it completely.
19:41But, 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.
19:48Like, don't you think the butterfly thing is because of you, right?
19:53Yeah.
19:54Okay, so then you got to be amazing.
19:57I won't let you down.
19:59I feel like he kind of just, like, slapped me in the face.
20:02He was like, my intern can make that in 30 minutes.
20:05I'm like, okay.
20:06I'm a Gemini.
20:07I don't take critiques.
20:08I take critiques very, like, don't tell me what to do.
20:11But I'm going to step it up.
20:13Step me up.
20:14No.
20:19Yuchun, what is your work normally like?
20:21My work is more, like, very futuristic.
20:23Okay.
20:24Very edgy and very avant-garde.
20:26So 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.
20:37It's always very futuristic, very powerful.
20:40I'm here to challenge myself.
20:42My inspiration for this look is from Taka.
20:45So I'm making this, like, tulle and lace dress with flowers and veins growing over and with a veil.
20:53Please don't be ugly.
20:54Okay.
20:55Thank you, Christian.
20:56Jesus.
20:57Yes.
20:58What's happening?
20:59I'm basically doing a powerful coat dress.
21:01All right.
21:02I also have another dress underneath.
21:04Right.
21:05So I think the challenge for you is how to make this feel more fashion, like something forward-thinking.
21:12I know in my head how the final product's gonna look, and I think it's elegant.
21:18Now it's about how to make this feel, like, really modern.
21:21You know?
21:22Yeah, yeah.
21:24Okay.
21:25I would love a tour of the brain.
21:27Well, we know that a villain loves a cape.
21:31I'm doing my version of a cape, where the cape is gonna connect to the top of the head.
21:36Love it.
21:37And then clean, simple, classic underneath.
21:41Mm-hmm.
21:42So this is a pant and a top?
21:43Yep.
21:44Pant and a top.
21:45Then the twist.
21:46Oh, I love a twist.
21:47I will pattern in a curved glove pattern.
21:50I don't think they want it to feel too costum-y.
21:54So I do think that that is important with your look, because you have such a dramatic moment.
22:01Try not to get in my head about it.
22:03I'm used to grand drag on the stage, so I am trying to edit.
22:09How'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.
22:21VJ?
22:22Oh, yeah.
22:23She'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.
22:40You have four more hours to finish everything.
22:43And then you will be sending your models to the Ulta Beauty Salon.
22:46And I'll see you guys in a little bit for model fittings.
22:49Don't turn into a pumpkin.
22:51Bye.
22:52Bye.
22:54We are meeting right now.
22:56I think the House of Villains didn't get enough great feedback from Christian Suriano.
23:01So I must demand a team meeting right now because I cannot go home on the first challenge.
23:06Let's step back.
23:08It doesn't look cohesive.
23:10We need to add an element.
23:12I think the cohesiveness is all but 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?
23:26Yeah.
23:28Being 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.
23:43And it's for Yushin.
23:44This is a team challenge.
23:45I'm not meaning taking his lace to like sabotage him.
23:48I'm just trying to do the best that I can.
23:50But the red, I mean, it's beautiful, but it seems like we don't have red for any other
23:53looks.
23:54I think it's okay.
23:55Yeah.
23:56Yeah.
23:57I think if you do like a red pop of color.
23:58I also, I'm very competitive in there.
23:59I want all black.
24:00I don't really understand why I have to devote my lace.
24:02Why he's doing this to me?
24:04Well, he's the biggest problem in the team.
24:06I'm just saying if we want to make the collection cohesive.
24:10I know.
24:11You're the only one with lace.
24:13Wow, Yushin.
24:14He'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
24:21whole competition.
24:26Today'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.
24:39Okay.
24:41You stand right here.
24:42This is great.
24:43Look at the proportions.
24:44Look at, you can't see her waist.
24:45You've got nothing.
24:46But I'm not going to make her look like a pinata.
24:48But that's kind of what it looks like.
24:50Oh my God.
24:51I'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 looking like a loofah.
24:57Diners!
24:58In the top world!
25:02Where's the model?
25:03Oh my God.
25:04This is more stressful than Cinderella at the ball.
25:07You are still sewing?
25:08No, this one like.
25:09Mmm.
25:10In three, two.
25:11Hi, everybody!
25:12Hi!
25:13All right, designers.
25:14That's it.
25:15That's time.
25:16You are coming.
25:17Come on.
25:18Please need our project runway judges.
25:20My longtime friend.
25:21Editor-in-chief of Elle magazine, Nina Garcia.
25:23Seriously, baby.
25:24That woman is powerful.
25:25I hope Nina Garcia sees my look and she like sees me in my princess.
25:29The FDA award-winning stylist and image architect, La Roche.
25:30I'm thrilled.
25:31La Roche.
25:32Incredible celebrity stylist.
25:33He's worked with Zendaya.
25:34La Roche can tear me a new one whenever the man wants.
25:36Okay?
25:37And please need again our mentor, Christian Siriano.
25:40I'm thrilled.
25:41I'm thrilled.

25:45La Roche can tear me a new one whenever the man wants.
25:49Okay?
25:50And please need again our mentor, Christian Siriano.
25:52Welcome to our first show of the season of Project Runway.
25:55As you know, in fashion, one day you're in and the next day you're out.
25:58And in my case, you're back in again.
26:00For our first challenge, our designer is to launch a new one.
26:03I'm thrilled.
26:04I'm thrilled.
26:05La Roche.
26:06I'm thrilled.
26:07La Roche.
26:08La Roche.
26:09Incredible celebrity stylist.

26:11La Roche can tear me a new one whenever the man wants.
26:12Okay?
26:13And please need again our mentor, Christian Siriano.
26:16Welcome to our first show of the season of Project Runway.
26:18As you know, in fashion, one day you're in, and the next day you're out.
26:21Our designers formed fashion houses.
26:23Two teams of six designers created cohesive collections inspired by Disney princesses
26:30or 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.
26:48I would walk out of here with that, happy.
26:50Yeah.
26:51I'm telling you.
26:52That girl is a villain.
26:54You can wear it now.
26:55It's not so costuming.
26:56I think it's beautiful.
27:01Seeing my look go down the runway, I'm really happy.
27:03I'm proud of it.
27:08Just to see the scarf dragging, so it gave some kind of sense of elegance and dramatic effect.
27:12The shape of my gown looks so clean and elegant.
27:19I love the way the light hits the velvet.
27:22The collar is exciting.
27:24It gives drama.
27:25It's made well, too.
27:26I couldn't be more pleased that this is the first piece that the judges see from me.
27:34I am so happy.
27:36She's giving me a villain vibe.
27:39The leather is moving.
27:41The pants is well made.
27:43Perfectly tailored for her.
27:45It's like I'm so speechless.
27:49Wow.
27:50I'm pinching myself.
27:51Seeing my look going down the runway.
27:53It's perfect, chic, and I feel like she looks like the villain.
27:58Mom, don't put your curse on me.
28:00I know.
28:08This 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.
28:29Yes!
28:36I feel the Joseph McCray princess gracing the space.
28:41I just cannot take my eyes off with my glove, because she is so beautiful.
28:45And I did that.
28:47Did you say daytime princess?
28:48Daytime, keep going to lunch.
28:53I think it looks cute.
28:54I think she looks good.
28:56I feel good, actually.
28:57I just am not the kind of person to be like, oh my God.
29:01Whoever did this knows how to sew.
29:03The construction is really great.
29:06When my model walks down the runway, it's definitely giving modern Jasmine for sure.
29:11And I see emotions being provoked when she's walking, and that's what I want.
29:16So, I'm feeling confident about my look.
29:18It's a vibe.
29:20I'm feeling emotional and happy with the work.
29:24Seeing my model in my beautiful butterfly fabric that I brought from home makes me feel so nurtured, love, and accomplished.
29:31Is that camouflage?
29:32It's like a butterfly print.
29:33She is just floating in my gown, and it's exactly the feeling I wanted.
29:46It is modern princess feeling.
29:48I love how the tool floats.
29:52It's like a little dance happening on the fabric.
29:55I feel very proud.
29:59Seeing my princess slash queen garment, whoo, I think she definitely owned the space.
30:05I knew that it was over.
30:07Designers, congratulations.
30:08That was a very special first show.
30:09Well done.
30:10Now 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.
30:37Welcome to your home away from home, the runway.
30:42Amazing.
30:43Yes.
30:44This was a great first challenge, and applause to all of you guys, because really everyone
30:49did a great job.
30:51But we're going to start nitpicking now.
30:54Yeah.
30:55We have scored your designs, and only one house has risen to the top.
31:00The best look will come from the winning house, while the eliminated designer will come
31:05from the losing house.
31:08The winning house for this challenge is...
31:13House of Villains.
31:15Whoa!
31:19This team was a hard one to work with, but we won.
31:22We won.
31:23We won.
31:24We won.
31:25Congratulations.
31:26Unfortunately, that means House of Princes.
31:29You are the losing house.
31:31You can leave the runway.
31:33We'll talk to you later.
31:36Oh, my God.
31:38I didn't think I belonged here.
31:42I am shocked.
31:43What just happened?
31:45This feels horrible.
31:50So, congratulations.
31:51You guys are winning a house.
31:52Your clothes really spoke to the challenge, but also did in a way that felt really modern,
31:59that separated you from the other team.
32:01Your collection, at least, looked cohesive.
32:07All right.
32:08Let's talk to the top three of our favorite looks.
32:13Ethan.
32:15Ta-da!
32:16We also love Yuchin.
32:22And we had a little bit of a debate over the third spot.
32:28It is Jesus.
32:31Yes!
32:33Alex, Angelo, BJ.
32:36You're safe.
32:37And you can leave the runway.
32:38Thank you so much.
32:39Thank you, baby.
32:42Thank you, guys.
32:43All right.
32:44Let's bring out your models.
32:48You were our three favorite looks tonight.
32:51All right, Yuchin.
32:52Let's talk about your looks.
32:54To me, this is now.
32:55I love this, especially now.
32:57Everything is about sheer.
32:58And so, I feel like you're right on what's happening right now.
33:01And she looks beautiful.
33:02I would wear this, too.
33:03It's gorgeous.
33:04I really like your dress.
33:05It's young.
33:06It's sexy.
33:07It's gothic.
33:09It's evil.
33:10I can definitely see Jenna Ortega in this dress at a party.
33:13A premiere of Wednesday Addams.
33:15A slight change.
33:16I would have switched the styling with the boots,
33:18but I think it is a really, really great dress.
33:20And I think it is very commercial.
33:23The flower in the back is curious,
33:25but I love the ruching that you did on the bodice.
33:29If we change this black into pink,
33:32you could be in the princess.
33:34Yeah, thank you.
33:35ChassƩ.
33:36Yeah.
33:37I'm versatile.
33:38All right.
33:39Oh, me too.
33:43Ethan, we're going to talk to you next.
33:45Hello, distinguished panel of judges.
33:47Okay.
33:48Your model is actually quite petite.
33:51However, she felt grandiose.
33:55It was like this dark shadow had just slithered through this stage.
34:00It wasn't just the clothes.
34:02It was a feeling.
34:04The construction was really, really good.
34:06The velvet was a great idea.
34:08Velvet always looked so rich.
34:10There was a little things that I noticed on the cape.
34:13There was a scene that I wish I didn't see.
34:15And a little bit of the hem is puckering,
34:18but 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,
34:26you wear this jumpsuit underneath.
34:27It's like modern.
34:28It's cool.
34:29I would want to wear it.
34:30I love the nails because this little detail,
34:33I was like, yes.
34:35And she looks stunning.
34:37All right, Jesus.
34:39Jesus, it's so lovely to see you again.
34:42It was bold of you to choose a color
34:46when everybody else stuck to black.
34:49I think that's why you're up here
34:51is because in a sea of black to have this fabrication
34:54that feels really rich and really luxe
34:56was really important.
34:57For me, it was very important to make her feel sexy,
35:00and I think that I embody that.
35:02I love the coat.
35:03I think it's fabulous.
35:05I hated it.
35:07I was the only one.
35:08I was out judged.
35:09Hate is such a big word.
35:11It's a short word.
35:12It's only four letters.
35:15I'm sorry if you hate the coat.
35:17I hate the whole look.
35:18Aw, don't get emotional.
35:23We 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.
35:40She looks like a Nigerian auntie.
35:43I have clients of all different sizes, ages,
35:46and one thing you have to care about
35:48is the placement of the breast.
35:50Then you could have done something
35:52to lift the breast a little bit more.
35:54If you're going to say that you want to make
35:56a curvy woman feel beautiful and powerful
35:59and all those things,
36:00then you have to do it in your design.
36:02Does anyone disagree with any of that?
36:04Yeah.
36:05A lot of the times I feel like designers
36:08put a curvy girl into something so loose
36:11that we can't see the beautiful curves.
36:13Then I think you look beautiful.
36:14Okay.
36:15All right.
36:16Now it's time to name our winner.
36:28Congratulations, Ethan.
36:30You're the winner of this challenge.
36:31Yes.
36:32Shut up.
36:34Crown me, baby,
36:36because the queen is on top this week.
36:40Yurika won.
36:41Ethan, Ethan.
36:45Ethan, Ethan, Ethan.
36:48Ah!
36:49Feels right.
36:50La Roche was rocked.
36:52I'm so shocked right now.
36:54Shocked, shocked, shocked.
36:55It feels like I'm not on the top,
36:58even though I should be celebrating being on the top.
37:00I feel a little attacked.
37:03I'm gagged.
37:04But, and I think it's very critical for me moving forward
37:08to really listen to what the judges have to say.
37:11All I have to do is prove him wrong.
37:14What was the feedback for yours?
37:16What did they have to say?
37:17Yeah?
37:18And does it really get some, like, you know, very good advices, you know?
37:21But my advice to you is through this challenge, like, every time I would be like,
37:26oh, 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 one thing.
37:34So, remember you talking about my lace?
37:36You're saying everyone take a piece of the lace from your chest.
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.
37:46I know.
37:47I have my own opinion.
37:48I'm a very mature designer.
37:49So, nobody needs to tell me anything unless I want to take it, okay?
37:53You 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.
38:01I don't know what I'm doing.
38:02You don't know.
38:03No.
38:04You don't know.
38:05Mm-mm.
38:06Child.
38:09All right, let's bring out House of Princess.
38:16House of Princess, you made our least favorite collection.
38:20It was not cohesive.
38:21Unfortunately, there were three looks that were less Disney and more dismal.
38:28Balanya, Madeline, Joan.
38:31You're safe and you can leave the runway.
38:34Thank you for my...
38:36Woo!
38:37Woo!
38:38Woo!
38:39Woo!
38:40Woo!
38:45Unfortunately, that means Casey, Joseph, and Antonio.
38:48You had the three bottom looks.
38:53Am I being punk?
39:02Am I being punk?
39:03No.
39:04Okay.
39:05Mm-mm.
39:07All right, let's bring out your models.
39:16Joseph, we're gonna start with you first.
39:17Like, I did not see the inspo.
39:20I knew that that was you, but I just don't get Princess from this thing.
39:23I wish that you would have picked Elaine.
39:26You have volume, but then you have her wrapped up in this skirt that seems to be strangling her.
39:34It's a question of proportions.
39:36You're playing with too many.
39:38I disagree.
39:39I enjoy the way you play with proportions.
39:42I like the coat.
39:43He popped that coat off and it was a sweetheart bodice dress.
39:46But it isn't.
39:47I like it.
39:48I think she looks really cool.
39:50I can see some of my clients wearing this.
39:52To me.
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,
40:12then that's what that look was.
40:14After Christian's critiques, I did change my look a few times.
40:19And there is another dress underneath.
40:21Is the dress still underneath or no?
40:23Yeah.
40:24Let's see it.
40:25Yeah.
40:26Well, Christian told me his intern can make that dress in 30 minutes.
40:28Oh, you can't blame it on everything on Christian.
40:31I just think this dress underneath an intern could make it in 30 minutes.
40:34It's a tube dress.
40:35You couldn't have shown that by itself.
40:37But you know, why didn't you let it be open?
40:39I don't know why you put the belt on it.
40:41I didn't know you were going to cover up the butterflies completely.
40:44It's better this way.
40:45Yeah, because with that cute little mini dress under it,
40:48at least you see her body.
40:50It's charming.
40:52But this is not how we saw it.
40:53She just looked like a big loofah.
40:55When Christian was criticized, I was like,
40:57don't think it's going to be a pinata.
40:58Stop blaming it on Christian.
41:00You're here now.
41:01No, I'm not blaming Christian.
41:02Oh, he knows.
41:03I'm a Gemini and I don't like people tell me what to do.
41:07And I was like, you're an adult.
41:09You're going to listen to Christian.
41:10He's here for a reason.
41:11He's your mentor.
41:12And I did listen to him.
41:13And that's why I changed my look three times.
41:14And you know, you pushed me to be better.
41:17The inspo of the butterfly comes from which princess?
41:21Which princess?
41:22I mean, every princess.
41:24Antonio, but you're being so defensive.
41:27No, I'm not.
41:28We're just trying to understand your work.
41:30I'm trying to explain myself.
41:31I'm sorry if I'm coming out.
41:32Right.
41:33But I don't think there's any reason to be defensive.
41:34No, I'm not being defensive at all.
41:35I'm just explaining myself.
41:36Sorry about coming out.
41:37No, I think Nina's right to call that out.
41:39I think you are being defensive and also a little bit rude.
41:43It'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.
41:56I'm just letting you know.
41:57Okay.
41:58One girl to another.
41:59Maybe it's my Latina side.
42:00Maybe.
42:05Next.
42:07Casey, let's talk about your look.
42:09I really love this jacquard.
42:12And I wish that all this other stuff would disappear.
42:17I don't know.
42:18To me, it looks like a nightgown.
42:19You know, it's very lackluster in terms of like shape and everything.
42:23And what you then wrapped around to me looks like an afterthought.
42:27Can she turn around?
42:28Yes.
42:29The ribbon is what I hated.
42:30Yeah.
42:31What if I stood back?
42:32A hundred percent.
42:33I want to see like more design.
42:35Is that inspiring?
42:36I love the deep plunge.
42:37I just think it was a miss because you had everything to make something so beautiful and so fairytale-like and you kind of missed it.
42:48I hear you.
42:49I hear you.
42:50All right, designers, we have to make a decision.
42:52You can leave the runway.
42:59This is so much fun.
43:00I love this job.
43:01Yeah, I can tell.
43:04I don't know if they're going to make it out alive at the end.
43:08Casey.
43:09What's happening?
43:10You're good.
43:11You're fine.
43:12You're fine.
43:13You're fine.
43:14You're fine.
43:15You're fine.
43:16I'm still willing to drive.
43:17Yeah, I love it.
43:19I 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.
43:32Couches.
43:34Casey, Nina, what did you think?
43:36The dress was a complete mess.
43:38It was horrible.
43:39And boring, too.
43:40It's 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.
43:52I had like 30 minutes to make that dress.
43:54Yeah, but the coat made.
43:55I liked that it was a coat.
43:56I know.
43:57But what if he didn't have that coat?
43:58Yeah.
43:59No.
44:00He needed that kind of.
44:01He's like, whoa, your attitude, I'm like, oh, bitch.
44:04That attitude is so bad.
44:07Then he said, it's probably just the Latina in me.
44:09Girl.
44:10I was like, yeah, all right.
44:12That's not an excuse.
44:13So with my Nina, baby.
44:15Yeah.
44:16You could be very talented, but if you have a bad attitude
44:19and you can't work with others in this industry, we have seen it.
44:24Bad attitude is a problem.
44:27I'm so proud of myself.
44:30Give me three.
44:31It's just very emotional, you know, and intense.
44:34Like...
44:35It's just intense.
44:37I just feel like I'm in shock a bit.
44:40Right now, like, um...
44:42I 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.
44:50Like, after 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.
45:01I'm like, no.
45:02Why am I here?
45:03I 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.
45:16So do we say home the bad dress or the bad attitude?
45:20I want to go home.
45:23Ooh.
45:25If I say my attitude's gonna be worse.
45:29I will lose...
45:30hug.
