Y'all some fickle snowflakes. Korto has been this strong black woman every season. But y'all really taking this editing this serious? I didn't see this energy for Brittany her season, when she age shame that lady and talked mad shit. Literally got caught shading her, with Nancy around the corner. LITERALLY THE EXACT SAME EDIT they are giving Korto. With Brittany everyone was like "she's tired", " "she's just frustrated"......why do y'all think she is being so quiet now????? Because she doesn't want that edit again. Korto stays herself the whole rip. And she did not tell one lie. The unconscious biased is real.

For one, she’s stunning.

She’s gorgeous.

She’s vivacious.

And she’s the most welcoming of the regular judges to guest judges.

I like her and I would want her to be my friend.

What’s the deal with all of the criticism here?

With the exception of Anna, I dig all of the remaining designers. Has anyone seen the Sami Miro insta where she isi n the PR space designing with denim? She had some interesting looks. I am a bit weary of Anna's excuses to date. One more thing, Kiki on RHOM wore a dress that had the same 'cage' with ruffles that they used on PR.

I love this season, the humor and banter with everyone is great, Christian and Chris are my favorites but my god.. I've lost count of how many times almost all of them have said tr*nny through the season. Am I overreacting and being a snowflake or does anyone else feel the same way?

kinda random, but ethan taking the megaphone out of lisa ann walter and calling her ‘bitch’ left a sour taste in my mouth. i feel like gay men are too comfortable saying that

He is a spirit breaker.

He’s soooo vindictive over Joseph McRae…it’s a personal problem not any design problems. Contestants if they had extra time would always make a matching accessory with their model.

Having Elizabeth being SOOOO terrified to go on stage…girl…she’s not even anxious cause he’s a big deal but anxious because he’s just a bully.

The producers probably love him for giving them little clickbait promotional drama clips. But holy cow this show makes me NOT like him outside of the show. And makes me question the character of his clients that hire him.

He's literally said this many times....... he's getting paid to be the villian. And yall are eating it up actually with saying how much you hate him.

Sounds like a job well done to me.

Get them my Chicago sistah! 💁🏿‍♂️💁🏿‍♂️💁🏿‍♂️💁🏿‍♂️💁🏿‍♂️

So I just recently started watching project runway because I love fashion design, I decided to start with the first season back in 2004. I was liking it so far but then I got to one episode where they had to try to get the attention of an older gentleman that I think was like a fashion designer. Anyway, it was the swimsuit challenge and they were literally parading the young models in front of him. It was really gross, he was definitely checking them out and a few of the models were only sixteen. He even says something like, "I probably shouldn't look at her ass while the camera is watching me right?" Then proceeded to try to block the camera with his hand, while still staring at the model (who btw literally told this man she was only sixteen). Anyway I was pretty disgusted by this pedo behavior so I stopped watching the episode but I was wondering if the later seasons get any better? I don't have Netflix, I want to watch next in fashion but any recommendations for similar shows if it doesnt get any better would be appreciated too. I love RuPaul's drag race and Dragula too.

I apologize if this offends anyone, but every time I watch Project Runway, I can't help but feel that designing for plus-size models is much harder than designing for standard-size models. The exact same outfit might look amazing on a standard-size model, but it just might not work for a plus-size model.

Not only do designs for plus-size models rarely win challenges, but I also hear the judges say things like 'Where is her waist?' or 'This design makes her look even bigger.'

On the other hand, with standard-size models, designers don't have to worry about these restrictions. They can be incredibly bold and experiment with puffy silhouettes, avant-garde structures, and voluminous designs.

With all the steps forward we have made in body positivity, I can’t believe Law Roach’s disgusting breast shaming. Women with larger breast should not be shamed into pushing them up to appease your preference. Lirisc has said she felt sexy and loved the natural hang of her natural breast. Let’s start normalizing natural bodies.

THE POST

We get it. You hate law so so so much. I spent a lot of time defending him last season on this sub because it got weirdly racist. I’m not going to even try this season because now it’s constant law posting 24/7. Not even racist. Just CONSTANT. It’s like people are spamming hate posts about him. It makes the sub unfucking usable mods. I DONT HATE LAW. I just want to talk about the fucking show with people who don’t go into diatribes about how law is the worst person on the planet earth because he said something a lil rude. I don’t care. I truly don’t. Argue with your mama.

Use the search function. Go reply to someone else’s hate post. Have a fucking ki and yap it up. We do not need a new fucking post every 2 hours about how someone hates law. This sub has become so hateful and nasty and rude and people are talking and behaving in the exact same way they bash on law for. I’m so over it.

You’re allowed to not like law. But can you at least not talk about it for five fucking minutes? Or maybe do it in one place? We hear you. Can we talk about the fashion now?

I was shocked on E2 with Tim’s workroom rounds—he was so rude and nasty, all this tough love bravado for people who had just arrived and were all trying their best. But his treatment of the designer FKA Swapnil (now Saisha) for the “crew makeover” challenge was totally unwarranted. Saishawas certainly not doing good work, but she wasn’t rude or dismissive or mean to the crew member as other PR designers have been, without being told off so angrily. And the whole storyline that Swapnil was somehow lazy or not living up to potential or arrogant—where?! She was in the top SO OFTEN, and the design she said she’d given 200% to was actually my favorite in the Broadway challenge—but Tim insulted her to her face about it. She spent time smoking because she was anxious—Tim spent so much time counseling other contestants about their anxiety, but not for Saisha. The whole attitude seemed to be “you’re not grateful enough to be here” which any immigrant will tell you is a really common assumption by people in authority.

There have been a few moments where Tim has really shown himself to be a not nice person, but this was a really big one imo.

Victoria has been high in 5 challenges and has won 1 challenge. So she has been in the top 6/10 episodes.

She has been in the bottom only 3 times which is as many times as Sergio, Nancy and Geoffrey.

So no the judges didn’t give her another pass. She has one of the best track records in the competition right now.

Korto is a Project Runway legend already with her previous two seasons. Miss maam got second position twice! I hope she secures a top 3 or at least a top 5 this time around.

I feel like this Reddit is filled with people hating Law, but omg I love him. I watch a lot of reality competition shows and over the years, whether it be Project Runway or any other show, it feels like the judges are constantly being nice lately, no matter if what the contestant did was awful. It’s like everything is sugar coated. There’s some outfits on this show that are god awful and judges will say something like we love the fabric and the vision but it’s not up to the standards we set for you. Fine it’s BARELY a critique but It’s like all the judges are constantly walking on their tippy toes to try to be nice when in reality the shit looks fucking awful.

It is honestly amazing to finally have a judge who JUDGES. Who sees a piece of shit and literally just calls it out for what it is - a piece of shit. I honestly don’t even think the majority is mean! He’s saying what over half of us are thinking in our heads. Sure I guess the truth hurts and the truth can be mean, but it’s the blunt truth and people need to hear it.

I am so utterly pissed off after watching last week's project runway (Season 16, Episode 9: "A Little Avant Garde") that I'm no longer sure if can continue to watch the rest of the season.

Ok, Ok, the twins were annoying, we get it, but Michael and Margarita were even more annoying with their catty high-school-mean-girl act.

First, they were all over Claire because her top slightly resembled Margarita's previous win, but when she changed it they were all how claire apparently designs her clothes to look like the ones she wears. Finally, they managed to make some of their bitch-spaghetti stick to the wall by reporting that Claire uses a tape measure in the apartment, which is against the rules.

Second, to WALTZ OFF STAGE like an entitled diva in "protest" is so unacceptable that they should have cut him immediately. It's not the god damn Michael Show. Then Margarita also jumps off to go find him?! Cut 'em both! It was like watching a daycare run rampant.

Third, to take the win and $25K away from Claire was a bit heavy handed, but since using a tape measure in the apartment is against the rules the decision is, unfortunately, warranted. However, on the other hand, walking off stage in the middle of the previous judges critique is apparently rewarded since Michael's garments was the winner this week. I'm sorry, but Michael's Ellen Ripley at the Disco was terrible! I think it should have been on the bottom or safe at the very best, but to win?! AND SURPRISE you also get $5k! What the fuck, Heidi?!

And don't even get me started on their ridiculous decision to unnecessarily cut Amy! Amy was awesome and it was refreshing to have a designer with a mature perspective. I guess Project Runway would rather reward talentless, 20-something divas who kick and scream when they don't get their way, instead.

The more I see posts like this and the comments under them…the more I’m beginning to wonder if there is some collective micro aggression towards Law???

How can one singular person be to blame for a shitty season? Michael Kors, Zac Posen & Brandon are just as snarky if not more but no one is giving Law the same grace or admiration. Just feels very off constantly reading these comments constantly that focus on bashing Law.

Rewatching All Stars season five. Sam is the most sickening person ever. That coat made from fire hoses and looked like a rectangle on the model and all the judges were drooling over it. When the model walked past Isaac, he grinned. Not just smiled. He grinned. Gross. That coat was maybe number one in my top 10 ugly garments. And that smirking flirt was vomit inducing.

She's a) just too emotional and b) keeps talking about how she struggled to pay her rent when this really isn't the venue for that.

Talk about your talent and why you deserve to be there, not how bad you need the money.

Huge turn off.

Surely others have had financial struggles but they don't bring it up.

It doesn't seem appropriate to bring this up as a reason to go to NYFW.

New working conspiracy theory: After Joseph’s crazy vote off last season, what if he sued and in arbitration the show agreed to give him the stupidest path to the finals ever as restitution?

Either that or they think his collection will sell.

No matter what, this was producer driven 10/10 times and it’s bullshit. Sorry.

Justice for Nahim

I just got done watching some of season 17 on Netflix. I've noticed there's still an element of "cut throat" that feels very off-putting. I am glad there is less drama and bickering, but I still can't help but feel really sorry for some of these designers. At the end of the day many of them are struggling artists. They wave $250,000 that's donated by an extremely wealthy corporation, wave it in front of desperate designers' faces, then beat them down. This isn't merchandising college or an internship. Their opinions don't actually sell; 99% of all contestants aren't getting anything out of the competition.

They slave way, blood sweat and tears only to have their work torn into. I've watched it for many, many years and I'm just at a point now where I question why they feel it's appropriate to demonize contestants and professionally demolish them. Nadine, for example, was scolded as if she was a spoiled narcissistic child ... For calling her model curvy. Yes, she squirmed into an excuse because the pressure was on, but she didn't call her model overweight nor did she attempt to blame her.

Yet the judges reemed her and wouldn't let off that "she insulted her model, blamed her, and essentially called her fat". That's not what happened. Does ANYONE in their right mind actually believe this grown woman who's lived a life, paid her own bills, built her own skill-sets and crafts ... Decided to "worm her way onto Project Runway" to abuse the models and call them fat?

And yet this is absolutely the narrative the judges ran with. They smeared her. They destroy reputations, and self-esteem.

It's not right. Entering a competition out of desperation in an extremely tough society as an artist where paying bills and getting seen is very difficult — should not be grounds for privileged wealthy folk to destroy your reputation, self-esteem, to put you down and demonize you.

Nobody even asked if she was calling her model overweight; they simply insisted she did, and insisted she was attacking her model. That's the story they wanted, so that's the story they went with. It's beyond insane. You don't do that to another human-being, let alone a full grown professional adult. You aren't her therapist, the police arresting her for a crime.

And the judges' choices are sometimes questionable. The fact that some of them have capitalist success is not an excuse to ruin someone's life.

It's traumatic, and people will walk away with a very hostile and negative opinion of Nadine. What was her crime? She needed money, and she's an artist ... The show needed adults to manipulate like some form of hunger-games for entertainment, where some artists are glorified and treated like saints while many are torn down and demonized for no reason. For every person they help, they destroy many others. It's insane.

I don't think I can keep watching. I walked away for a while after some insane stuff Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum were doing to, and saying about contestants. I gave it another chance with the new hosts and wow I don't find it amusing. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I get that he has to take a close look at the designs, but he doesn't have to touch their boobs all the time. I hope the models consented to all of the touching, or were at least briefed beforehand.
