“Fashion has always been a reflection of what’s happening in the world, and this show will be a reflection of what’s happening in the world,” said Welteroth during the Television Critics Association panel for the show in February.
Despite this familiar format, the feel of the show is more energetic and unabashedly progressive. By the end of the series, the three finalists create an entire collection for judgment.
Competitors are challenged each episode to design an original outfit, and the one with the worst design is eliminated. The rebooted “Runway” still has the same formula though. With these personnel changes comes a revitalized purpose for “Project Runway” to democratize fashion and make it accessible and all-inclusive for everyone in an age when identity, acceptance, and self-expression have become paramount. Also, Elaine Welteroth and Brandon Maxwell join veteran Nina Garcia for a freshened judges’ panel.
#KARLIE KLOSS PROJECT RUNWAY SERIES#
Their departures sparked an overhaul of the series in front of the camera, starting with model Karlie Kloss and designer/former winner Christian Siriano replacing the host and mentor, respectively. But whatever.Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn may be out, but the 15-year-old “ Project Runway” is still very much in as it returns to its old Bravo stomping grounds after 11 seasons on Lifetime. Of course, Karlie could avoid all criticism if she just never married into the family of billionaire slumlords who are handmaidens to Trump. “I’m professional, so what I said earlier had no hidden agenda, no meaning, nothing like that.” She smiled and thanked Tyler for his apology. “Karlie, I want you to know that I’m not a jerk,” he said. “Can I?” he began to say, as Karlie cut him off, “You can say anything you like.” “Thank you for being here,” Karlie said as she stood up to give Tyler a kiss on the cheek, which she does with all eliminated contestants. Once he and the others were brought back out onto the runway, Karlie announced that Tyler was in the bottom three, then revealed the judges had voted to send him home. “It did not come out how I meant it,” he explained, taking a seat on one of the couches. Once backstage, one of the contestants approached Tyler to give him a hug. You really missed the mark here on all accounts.” And if this is your aesthetic then that’s that, but this was about my aesthetic and the influence of my stylist. The fabrics are poor choices I think they look cheap.
“I know that this is not what I asked for. “You may not know, but I know,” Kloss stated. I can see you wearing it at some point!” Neasloney defended. That was your challenge here,” she fired back. “That’s your husband!” Karlie was not having it. Once he realized that his joke was not taken well, though, Tyler backtracked. 6U49xGmgiE- Joshua Conkel January 3, 2020 This Project Runway take down of Karly Kloss Kushner is so ducking good. And Karlie… Karlie looked like she was about to murder him. The judges clutched their metaphorical pearls and looked like they were about to explode. “Oh, no! Tyler, don’t say that out loud!” one of them muttered to herself, as another’s mouth dropped open: “Holy shit.” Another added, “I’m gonna throw up. “Not even to dinner with the Kushners?” Tyler innocently asked, with a smirk. “I cannot see Karlie wearing it anywhere, honestly.” When the supermodel asked contestant Tyler Neasloney to explain his look, he said it was “made from four pairs of pants” and that he was “gong for a very traditional like Montauk, Martha’s Vineyard, Cape Cod, Americana vibe.”ĭesigner and judge Brandon Maxwell was decidedly unimpressed. On Monday night’s episode, the designers were tasked with creating a look for Karlie to wear in Paris, using only donated clothing from a local Goodwill. Omg, Did you SEE the epic takedown of supermodel/Kushner bride Karlie Kloss on last night’s Project Runway?
