Check out the full lineup below.
The Project Runway Season 21 cast has been revealed
E! News dropped all of the tea about the upcoming season of Project Runway, which features two past contestants and a RuPaul’s Drag Race alum. Heidi Klum will lead the show, with Nina Garcia and Law Roach serving as judges. Christian Siriano is going to be a mentor for the designers in the workroom.
That’s already a solid lineup, but the guest judges are like the icing on the cake. Tyra, who hosted America’s Next Top Model for ages, will bring her expertise to the panel in addition to Jenna, who leveraged her J. Crew success into a stint on The Real Housewives of New York.
Other A-listers slated to appear throughout the season include Sofia Vergara, Joan Smalls, Mickey Guyton, and Nikki Glaser. Plus, there are a ton of famous designers like Christian Cowan and Michael Kors. Freeform is pulling out all of the stops to make sure the show’s jump from Bravo is successful.
In an interview with E! News, Christian teased the dynamic on the judges’ panel. He said that fans can expect to see Law delivering his signature, unfiltered commentary. And since everyone has different tastes, some of the judges don’t always see eye to eye.
He teased, “Having Law as a judge is incredible, because you’re getting very real fashion in the moment.”
“It’s incredible Heidi being back makes it so fun and amazing,” Christian continued. “Her and Law don’t like the same things, and Nina doesn’t like the same things.”
Project Runway returns Thursday, July 31, at 9/8c. on Freeform.
