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 want to go home.
01:14Are you nuts?
01:15I want this so bad.
01:17Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
01:19Ah!
01:20I want to 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.
01:45Let me spell it out.
01:48Let me spell it out.
01:48W-O-W-O-W.
01:50Let me spell it out.
01:51W-O-W-O-W.
01:52Oh shit!
01:52Yo, we on Project Runway for real.
01:59Oh, shit.
02:01Yo, uh...
02:03Yo, we on Project Runway for real.
02:06Welcome to Project Runway, aka The Joseph McCray Show.
02:09Ooh!
02:11Listen, it's Joseph McCray is one word.
02:13Do not break it up.
02:14First and last together, and that's it.
02:19Uh-oh.
02:20You got a designer and a model.
02:24I'm a tall bitch.
02:29Hey, Diva.
02:32How are you? I'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!
02:45Hey, Diva.
02:46How are you?
02:46Hello, Ethan. Nice to meet you.
02:48Vijay.
02:49I'm Joseph McCray.
02:50Hi, Joseph.
02:51No, no, no. You got to say that first to that.
02:53Hi.
02:54Hold on. Vijay is Joseph McCray.
02:56Okay, Joseph, right?
02:57Joseph McCray.
02:57Joseph Mac...
02:59McCray.
02:59Don't even split it.
03:00Okay, Joseph McCray.
03:01Boom. Easy, right?
03:04Hola.
03:05Hola.
03:06Hi.
03:07I'm Joseph McCray.
03:08Hey.
03:09Madeline, nice to meet you.
03:10Madeline, pleasure.
03:11Hey.
03:12Hola.
03:13Hi.
03:14Bitches, I am back.
03:16Jesus, nice to meet you.
03:18I'm Jesus Estrada from Project Runway Season 7.
03:22I'm so excited.
03:23Jesus, we are concerned about your taste level.
03:27I was a baby.
03:28I was 21 years old.
03:30I'm 36 now.
03:31Hola.
03:32Back then, I didn't know who I was as a designer.
03:35Now coming back, I know my DNA.
03:37I have a very successful business.
03:39So Heidi has nothing to worry about this time around, about my taste level.
03:44I'm gonna win, just so you know.
03:46So I hope you bitches are ready.
03:48Yes.
03:49What is going on?
03:50Girl.
03:51I'm VJ.
03:52I'm Joan.
03:53Nice to meet you.
03:54Nice to meet you, Joan.
03:55Hey guys.
03:56Hey.
03:57What's up?
03:58Hi.
03:59My name is Yuchen.
04:00Hi.
04:01My name is Casey Black.
04:04I was on Season 19 of Project Runway and I left on Episode 1.
04:12I'm like cry laughing.
04:14Casey, you are out.
04:16Being eliminated in the first challenge, I didn't get to show who I was as a person, as a designer, as an artist.
04:23So, I'm just hoping to prove who I am.
04:26Hi.
04:27Hi.
04:28Hi.
04:29Hi.
04:30Hi.
04:31Hi.
04:32Honey, you look like you're ready.
04:33I mean, born ready, baby.
04:35Yes.
04:36Oh shit, bitch.
04:37Are you guys ready to double the travel?
04:42Is that my twin brother?
04:43Oh my God.
04:45Bitch.
04:46Oh, no to my God.
04:49There's another one.
04:51The Estrada did not come to plan.
04:53Let them meet the winner.
04:57Wait, this one's my side, no?
04:59They want me here though.
05:00You want to tell them that you want this side?
05:02Yeah, that's my side.
05:04Is that going to be a fight?
05:06Hi, I'm Antonio Estrada.
05:07I'm the winner of Project Runway Season 21 and this is the first runner-up.
05:10Bitch.
05:11No, I'm kidding.
05:13We're seeing you on Season 7?
05:14No.
05:15Okay.
05:16This is his first time.
05:17I waited 15 years.
05:18We're here.
05:19Yes.
05:20Oh my God.
05:21And I 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.
05:33I'm excited to showcase my own creation.
05:35It's going to be 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.
05:43We're done.
05:44We're done.
05:45Yeah, 12.
05:46There you go.
05:48Yeah.
05:49Yeah.
05:53Welcome home, Mama.
05:54Yes.
05:55Yes.
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.
06:03What do you want?
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 and icon next to me, Christian Siriano.
06:17Yes.
06:18I'm good.
06:19So you want to know your first challenge?
06:20Absolutely.
06:21Okay, 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.
06:37The princesses have inspired so many designers for decades.
06:43And as you know, behind every powerful princess, there's something lurking.
06:48Ooh.
06:50The Disney villains.
06:51Yes.
06:53Not only were they scary, but they were fabulously evil.
06:58Okay, designers, we're in a new home with new rules.
07:03So for your first challenge, you will be forming fashion houses.
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.
07:17I 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.
07:27Okay.
07:28I 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.
07:35That's C word.
07:36For the very first runway show at the Enchanted United Palace.
07:41Ooh.
07:43We only have one day to create this look.
07:47Whew.
07:48You guys have 45 minutes to brainstorm, to sketch, and then you run off to Mood to get your fabric.
07:55Oh God.
07:56I'm so happy to be here and I can't believe I'm saying this again.
08:01I'll see you on the runway.
08:06Love you Heidi.
08:08It'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.
08:23I'm getting hives.
08:24I'm sweating.
08:25I'm like having panic attacks.
08:29I cannot be eliminated first.
08:32Not again.
08:33Oh!
08:37Okay.
08:38Here we go guys.
08:39Okay.
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 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.
08:59I definitely got inspired by Ursula.
09:01And since I have a delicious, curvaceous girl as a model, I want to do a powerful suit fit 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.
09:14I think a villain has a good cape.
09:17And if I can switch up the idea of having a cape, would we like that?
09:20Yes.
09:22I grew up on a farm.
09:23When I created Utica, it was a conduit for my queer artistic energy 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 for my community, but not everybody wants to ready-to-wear drag outfit.
09:44So I'm worried about that.
09:45It could get too costumey if I don't do it right.
09:48Oh.
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 bright.
10:08The fabric that I brought from home, it's literally that fabric, the butterfly, but it's in pink and it has orange-y tones.
10:15The butterflies are blue.
10:19So let's have the inspiration of our collection be butterfly.
10:23They're so butterfly.
10:25Butterfly, yes.
10:27Cool.
10:28Yes.
10:29Um, okay.
10:30Butterfly fabric is not going on my design.
10:32I'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.
10:39My 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.
11:02What is that?
11:04I am not feeling it.
11:08My name is Joan Madison.
11:10I'm years old.
11:12I'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 and I'm not here to use basic butterfly fabric.
11:25You know, I'm here to show them who's the queen.
11:27I 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 anyways.
11:38Are you going to pull something from here?
11:42I don't even know.
11:44For me, the butterflies reprincess.
11:47But if they don't yet, they're crazy.
11:49All right, designer.
11:56$600 each.
11:5745 minutes to shop.
11:58OK, go.
12:00Joseph McCray.
12:02Joseph McCray, you got to say the first with the last.
12:04Joseph McCray, you got to say the first with the last.
12:06No, this is too purple.
12:13Everybody's using this print.
12:15No, I'm the only one.
12:16But they all make sense.
12:18We got sequin.
12:19We have velvet.
12:20We've got your print.
12:21We have tulle.
12:22Our team had a plan coming into this.
12:24But now we're running around the store.
12:27Chicken with 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.
12:33OK, I'm.
12:34Listen, I work in 2025.
12:36I'm doing OK.
12:38Come, come, come, come.
12:39Villain team, can I please have you and beat it, please?
12:42We have to have a meeting right now.
12:44I played this game before, and I think at this point,
12:47I know what it takes, and if someone has to take control,
12:50I think that person's going to be me.
12:52Great idea.
12:53Let's meet and make sure it makes sense together.
12:56I need to get lining, so I'll be back, OK?
12:59Lining?
13:00Lining.
13:01OK.
13:02Yeah.
13:03OK.
13:04Vijay 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 meaning.
13:12Hope it looks good.
13:17Fiddling, fiddling.
13:18Here we go.
13:21Did I cut enough?
13:22Can we sing Disney songs?
13:24It's a good thing that's not her day job.
13:37That fabric is gorgeous.
13:39Take off the file.
13:40Yeah, right?
13:41Don't you think?
13:42Yeah.
13:43That's gorgeous.
13:44I know.
13:45I think so, too.
13:46In season 19, I had a lot of ideas.
13:49It was really hard for me to edit down, and 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 pamphleting.
14:04Casey, I remember her from season 19.
14:08Her aesthetic is very loud, and yeah, it's pretty.
14:18Welcome to Project Runway season 21.
14:22My name is Vijay Floresca.
14:24Aside from being a fashion designer, I used to be a beauty queen.
14:31Here's my pageant wave.
14:33I was second runner-up in Project Runway Philippines season 1.
14:39And 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.
14:54This one.
14:57I can't really get a read on Vijay.
14:59This is a team challenge.
15:01And you have to be a little receptive to other people's critique
15:04and interest in what you're doing.
15:06She really is in her own zone.
15:08And to us, it seems like she's being an asshole.
15:24Let's do it!
15:26Let's get this party started!
15:28Got back to work.
15:29Color palette's coming together.
15:32Yeah.
15:33And that transition couldn't be any more perfect.
15:36I'm feeling like my team is a winning team.
15:38And I guess you can call me the team leader.
15:40Just because they actually fell in love with the fabric that I wanted to use for this challenge.
15:44But you know, I'm a Turner Strata. I 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.
15:51the house of princess.
15:52It'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, Vijay, how you doing?
16:10Huh?
16:11I think there's some people in my team that are not being team players.
16:16Biji's energy is very standoffish.
16:19It's bitchy.
16:20Why you don't have a machine?
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.
16:31So you don't have, like, one of them?
16:33No, 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, the fight for the machine begins.
16:46Girl, relax.
16:47Like, you don't own the machines.
16:49You're using black thread, honey?
16:50I am as well, so.
16:53Bitch, better not start.
16:54I don't like that shit.
16:56This is competition.
16:57We're not here to meet friends.
16:59We're here to win this.
17:00And I think maybe he just wants to distract me.
17:03I'm not going to give him that power.
17:05I'm just going to ignore it.
17:07See, this is my brother-in-law.
17:08Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
17:10You don't want to be in our bathtub, you know, bitch.
17:17Hello.
17:19First day!
17:20How are you?
17:21Hey!
17:22There's a lot going on in here.
17:23Yes, it is.
17:28Casey.
17:28Yes.
17:29Hi.
17:29Hi.
17:30We meet again.
17:30I know.
17:31I already need a martini.
17:33All right.
17:34What's happening?
17:35She'll be like a cake dress.
17:37She's a cake.
17:38And the flowers.
17:38I'm just thinking, you know, there's ways to make this feel a bit more modern and cool.
17:45Okay.
17:45Like maybe this tool is in here and it's more of a tool overlay somewhere.
17:50The proportions and the fit will be important here.
17:54Yeah.
17:54The waist.
17:55Okay.
17:55For sure.
17:56There'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.
18:05I 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.
18:16This is a little number.
18:18The 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
18:36periwinkle 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.
18:51I 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.
18:59This is Disney.
19:01I know.
19:02I know.
19:02Where 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 f***?
19:41Don't lose it completely.
19:42But, like, what else could this be?
19:44Could it have sculpture?
19:45Could it have some other element that anyone else has?
19:48Something's got to be cohesive.
19:49Like, don't you think the butterfly thing is because of you, right?
19:54Yeah.
19:54Okay, so then you've got to be amazing.
19:58I won't let you down.
20:00I 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.
20:08I take critiques very, like, don't tell me what to do.
20:12But I'm going to step it up.
20:14Step me up.
20:14No.
20:15You-Chun, 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.
20:31Okay.
20:31It doesn't feel that avant-garde.
20:33To be honest, I haven't made garments like this before.
20:36For 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, tool and lace dress with flowers and veins growing all over and with a veil.
20:54Please don't be ugly.
20:55Okay.
20:56Thank you, Christian.
20:57Jesus.
20:58Yes.
20:58What's happening?
20:59I'm basically doing a powerful coat dress.
21:02All right.
21:02I also have another dress underneath.
21:05Right.
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 going to look, and I think it's elegant.
21:18Now it's about how to make this feel, like, really modern, you know?
21:23Yeah, 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 going to connect to the top of the head.
21:37Love it.
21:38And then clean, simple, classic underneath.
21:42Mm-hmm.
21:42So this is a pant and a top.
21:44Yep, pant and a top.
21:45Then the twist.
21:46Oh, 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, because 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, so I am trying to edit.
22:10How's the team going?
22:11We've got some independent creatures on our team.
22:14We do, of course.
22:15Of course.
22:15We have a bitchy one in here.
22:17You have a sassy one?
22:18Yeah.
22:18Ooh.
22:19This thing over there in the corner.
22:20Ooh.
22:22BJ?
22:23Oh, yeah.
22:24She's what we call in the business.
22:25A b****.
22:26Mm-hmm.
22:27Interesting.
22:28Wow.
22:30I don't think there's a problem with being a b****, but when it's your own team, come on.
22:35We 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, and then you will be sending your models to
22:45the Ulta Beauty Salon, and I'll see you guys in a little bit for model fittings.
22:50Don't turn into a pumpkin.
22:52Bye.
22:53Bye.
22:55We are meeting right now.
22:57I think the House of Villains didn't get enough great feedback from Christian Soriano,
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.
23:11We need to add an element.
23:13I think the cohesiveness is all about the flowers that we have.
23:16Right?
23:16You're also the only one with lace, so we have to incorporate lace somewhere.
23:21I 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?
23:27Yep.
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.
23:40I'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.
23:54Yeah, I think if you do, like, a red pop of color in there.
23:58I also, I'm very competitive in there.
23:59I want it 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.
24:06I'm just saying, if we want to make the collection cohesive, you're the only one with lace.
24:14Wow, Yushin, he's definitely being a little shady bitch.
24:18If you're not here to be a team player, there's going to be a problem throughout this whole competition.
24:27Today is the first runway, and I'm just so scared what's going to happen.
24:31Not myself, but for other designers.
24:32She's probably a team villain, so it's just slick back.
24:38I want something like, you know, crying, smoky.
24:40Okay, thank you.
24:42You stand right here.
24:43This is great.
24:44Look at the proportions.
24:45Look at, you can't see her waist.
24:46You've got nothing.
24:47But I'm not going to make her look like a piñata.
24:49But that's kind of what it looks like.
24:52Oh, my God.
24:53I'm running out of time, and then I have to do a belt for this coat dress.
24:56I didn't want to have her looking like a loofah.
24:58Designers, get the top of the model!
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!
25:15Steering, Heidi, in three, two...
25:21Hi, everybody!
25:23Hi!
25:24All right, designers, that's it, that's time!
25:28You are coming!
25:29Come on!
25:30Please meet our Project Runway judges,
25:32my longtime friend,
25:33editor-in-chief of Elle magazine, Nina Garcia.
25:38Serious, baby, that woman is powerful.
25:42I hope Nina Garcia sees my look
25:44and she, like, sees me in my princess.
25:47CFDA award-winning stylist
25:49and image architect, La Roche.
25:52I'm thrilled.
25:54La Roche, incredible celebrity stylist.
25:57He's worked with Zendaya.
25:59La Roche can tear me a new one
26:01whenever the man wants, okay?
26:03And please meet again
26:04our mentor, Christian Siriano.
26:07Welcome to our first show of the season
26:09of Project Runway.
26:10As you know, in fashion, one day you're in,
26:12and the next day, you're out.
26:14And in my case, you're back in again.
26:16For our first challenge, our designers formed Fashion Houses.
26:19Two teams of six designers
26:21creating cohesive collections
26:23inspired by Disney princesses
26:26or Disney villains.
26:28Let's start the show!
26:30I feel so confident.
26:44This dress is really giving me a vibe of cool, modern.
26:49I would walk out of here with that, happy.
26:51I'm telling you.
26:52That girl is a villain.
26:55You can wear it now.
26:56It's not to cost me.
26:57I think it's beautiful.
27:02Seeing my look go down the runway, I'm really happy.
27:04I'm proud of it.
27:09Just to see the scarf dragging,
27:10so it gave some kind of sense of elegance
27:12and 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
27:28that this is the first piece
27:30that the judges see for me.
27:35I am so happy.
27:37She's giving me a villain vibe.
27:40The 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,
27:51seeing my look going down the runway.
27:53It's perfect, chic,
27:55and I feel like she looks like the villain.
27:59Don't put your curse on me.
28:01I know.
28:02I know.
28:03I know.
28:09This look is the magnum opus of my mix
28:12between grand and sophisticated.
28:15Look at the detail of the glove.
28:17It's so witchy.
28:18It's harnessing wind,
28:20and it just feels like I have created something
28:23that is truly special.
28:25I hope that they get a good meal
28:27from what I'm serving.
28:29Yes!
28:37I feel the Joseph McCray princess
28:39gracing the space.
28:42I just cannot take my eyes off with my girl
28:44because she is so beautiful.
28:46And I did that.
28:47Did you say daytime princess?
28:48Daytime.
28:49She's going to lunch.
28:54I 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,
29:00oh, my God.
29:02Whoever did this knows how to sew.
29:03The construction is really great.
29:07When my model walks down the runway,
29:09it's definitely giving modern Jasmine for sure.
29:12And I see emotions being provoked
29:15when she's walking,
29:16and 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
29:27that I brought from home
29:29makes me feel so nurtured,
29:31loved, and accomplished.
29:33Is that camouflage?
29:34It's like a butterfly print.
29:40She is just floating in my gown,
29:44and it's exactly the feeling I wanted.
29:46It is modern princess feeling.
29:51I love how the tool floats.
29:53It's like a little dance happening on the fabric.
29:56I feel very proud.
30:00Seeing my princess slash queen garment,
30:04I think she definitely owned the space.
30:06I knew that it was over.
30:09You know that we're late to you.
30:12Designers, congratulations.
30:14That was a very special first show.
30:16Well done.
30:18Now we have to see which house has a fairytale ending,
30:21and which one just ends.
30:24My 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.
30:42The runway.
30:43Amazing.
30:44Yes.
30:45This was a great first challenge,
30:47and applause to all of you guys,
30:49because really everyone did a great job.
30:52But we're going to start nitpicking now.
30:54Yeah.
30:55We have scored your designs,
30:57and only one house has risen to the top.
31:00The best look will come from the winning house,
31:03while the eliminated designer will come from the losing house.
31:06The winning house for this challenge is...
31:10House of Villains.
31:11This team was a hard one to work with.
31:22But we won.
31:23We won.
31:24We won.
31:25Unfortunately, that means House of Princes.
31:30You are the losing house.
31:32You can leave the runway.
31:33We'll talk to you later.
31:36Oh, my God.
31:39I didn't think I belonged here.
31:43I am shocked.
31:44What just happened?
31:46This feels horrible.
31:51So, congratulations.
31:52You guys are winning a house.
31:54Your clothes really spoke to the challenge,
31:57but also did in a way that felt really modern,
32:00that separated you from the other team.
32:02Your collection, at least, looked cohesive.
32:08All right.
32:09Let's talk to the top three of our favorite looks.
32:14Ethan.
32:16Ta-da!
32:18We also love Yu-Chin.
32:21And we had a little bit of a debate over the third spot.
32:25It is Jesus.
32:27Yes!
32:28Alex.
32:29Angelo.
32:30BJ.
32:31You're safe.
32:32And you can leave the runway.
32:33Thank you so much.
32:34Thank you, baby.
32:37Thank you, guys.
32:38All right.
32:39Let's bring out your models.
32:41You were our three favorite looks tonight.
32:44All right, Yu-Chin.
32:45Let's talk about your looks.
32:47All right, Yu-Chin.
32:48Let's talk about your looks.
32:50All right, Yu-Chin.
32:51Let's talk about your looks.
32:53To me, this is now.
32:54I love this, especially now.
32:55Everything is about sheer.
32:56And so I feel like you're right on what's happening right now.
32:59And she looks beautiful.
33:00I would wear this, too.
33:01Gorgeous.
33:02I really like your dress.
33:03It's young.
33:04It's sexy.
33:05It's gothic.
33:06It's evil.
33:07I can definitely see Jenna Ortega in this dress
33:09at a premiere of Wednesday Addams.
33:12A slight change.
33:13I would have switched the styling with the boots,
33:15but I think it is a really, really great dress.
33:17And I think it is a very, really great dress.
33:19And I think it is a very, really great dress.
33:21And I think it is very, really cool.
33:22And I think it is very commercial.
33:24The flower in the back is curious,
33:26but I love the ruching that you did on the bodice.
33:30If we change this black into pink,
33:33you 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.
33:41Ethan, we're going to talk to you next.
33:46Hello, 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 this 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.
35:12It's a short word.
35:13It's only four letters.
35:15I'm sorry if you hate the coat.
35:17I hate the whole look.
35:19Aw, don't get emotional.
35:24Please, we liked it.
35:27I love how your model looks.
35:29She feels regal.
35:31We need ambitious designers.
35:33Yes.
35:34Guys, I have to disagree with everything Nina said.
35:38To me, she doesn't look cool.
35:40She 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.
36:29Congratulations.
36:30Ethan, you're the winner of this challenge.
36:32Yes.
36:33Shut up.
36:35Crown me, baby.
36:37Because the queen is on top this week.
36:41Yurika won.
36:42Ethan, Ethan.
36:45Ethan, Ethan, Ethan.
36:50Feels right.
36:51La 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.
37:04I'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.
37:16What 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.
37:29Just, sometimes you do have, sometimes you have to listen.
37:33But girl, I have to say one thing.
37:35So, remember you talking about my lace?
37:37You're saying everyone take a piece of the lace.
37:39Did I say that?
37:40Everybody take a piece of his lace?
37:42We have the camera on there.
37:43Okay, bro.
37:44It was a team challenge and that was just a request.
37:47I know.
37:48I have my own opinion.
37:49I'm a very mature designer.
37:50So, nobody needs to tell me anything unless I want to take it.
37:53Okay?
37:54When you're getting really offended, really is throwing me off.
37:58Wait, wait, wait.
37:59Like, seriously?
38:00You know what you're doing, girl.
38:01No.
38:02Shut up.
38:03I don't know what I'm doing.
38:04You don't know.
38:05No.
38:06You don't know.
38:07Mm-mm.
38:08Child.
38:10Alright, let's bring out House of Princess.
38:17House of Princess, you made our least favorite collection.
38:21It was not cohesive.
38:22Unfortunately, there were three looks that were less Disney and more dismal.
38:29Balania, 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.
38:53I'm not being punk.
38:54Am I being punk?
39:03Am I being punk?
39:04No.
39:05Okay.
39:06Mm-mm.
39:07All right, let's bring out your models.
39:17Joseph, we're gonna 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.
39:26You 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's looked really cool.
39:51I can see some of my clients wearing this.
39:53To me.
39:54We agreed to disagree.
39:55Yeah, we agreed to disagree.
39:58Can she turn around?
40:01Yeah.
40:02Now the back isn't great.
40:03This is not.
40:04I'm sorry.
40:05The back is a couch cushion.
40:07Okay, Antonio.
40:08If you had asked ChatGBT to help you make a John Batista Valley for $100, then that's what that look was.
40:16After Christian's critiques, I did change my look a few times.
40:20And there is another dress underneath.
40:22Is the dress still underneath or no?
40:24Yeah.
40:25Let's see it.
40:26Yeah.
40:27Well, Christian told me his intern can make that dress in 30 minutes.
40:29Blaming everything on Christian.
40:32I 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 piñata.
41:00Stop blaming it on Christian.
41:01You're here now.
41:02No, we're not blaming Christian.
41:03I wrote...
41:04He knows.
41:05I'm a Gemini.
41:06And 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.
41:17Oh, he's spicy.
41:18The inspo of the butterfly comes from which princess?
41:22Which princess?
41:23I mean, every princess.
41:26Antonio, but you're being so defensive.
41:28No, I'm not.
41:29We're just trying to understand your work.
41:30No, you 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 about coming out.
41:38No, I 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-
41:47I'm taking the criticism.
41:48And to be, you know, let down by the criticism,
41:51but to kind of like throw it back.
41:54Charby's post 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.
42:10I 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.
42:28Can 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.
42:39I 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.
42:49I hear you.
42:50All right, designers, we have to make a decision.
42:52You can leave the runway.
43:00This is so much fun.
43:01I love this job.
43:03Yeah, I can tell.
43:06I don't know if they're going to make it out alive at the end.
43:11Can you see what's happening?
43:13I 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.
43:31He'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.
43:39And boring too.
43:41It's literally like she took a staple gun.
43:43It was just like...
43:44No, it was awful.
43:45I'm an adult and I'm going to take criticism about bitch.
43:47When you're putting words in my mouth, like...
43:48Antonia, what were your thoughts?
43:50That dress, when he opened it up, was really cute.
43:53I had like 30 minutes to make that dress.
43:55Yeah, but the coat made.
43:56I like that it was a coat.
43:57I know.
43:58But what if he didn't have that coat?
43:59Yeah.
44:00No, he needed that kind.
44:01He's like, whoa, your attitude.
44:03I'm like, oh, bitch.
44:04That attitude is so bad.
44:07What did he say?
44:08It's probably just the Latina in me.
44:10Girl.
44:11I 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.
44:25Bad attitude is a problem.
44:27I'm so proud of myself.
44:30It's just very emotional, you know, and intense.
44:34It's just intense.
44:35It's just intense.
44:37I just feel like I'm in shock a bit.
44:40Right now, like, I actually really loved my dress.
44:45Being in this position again.
44:47I never thought I'd be in the bottom three.
44:49At this stage of the competition again, like,
44:51after being eliminated on episode one of another season,
44:54like, it just feels like a bad joke.
44:56I don't want to go home.
45:01They're so mean.
45:02I'm like, no.
45:03Why am I here?
45:05I didn't think my design was the worst,
45:09but being in the bottom three, I feel, like, shattered.
45:12Do I really need to be here?
45:13Do I really need this?
45:14It's like, let's just go home.
45:16So do we say home the bad dress or the bad attitude?
45:22I want to go home.
45:24No.
45:26If I say my attitude's gonna be worse.
