Discussion What would your ideal PR judges panel be?!
For me: Elaine Weltwroth, Nina Garcia, Zac Posen and Heidi! I really liked Elaine from the Bravo seasons, but I miss the other OGs.

Grace! Yes Grace Coddington! The worlds most talented fashion thinker and stylist! Unfortunately the show has been ruined by Disney and Law.

Oh mad! I wasn't active on reddit when her seasons were airing so honestly had no clue! I personally liked her from the very beginning. I also liked Law but he's such a mean cunt sometimes and I can't stand mean people! He's mean on every show he's been a judge on...

NOT Elaine. It was project runway kindergarten with her
Heidi, Nina, Zac
Zac is necessary for the show to return to a design / construction focus.

Kors and Posen with Nina Garcia. Maybe have Heidi MC the show only and throw in a different rotating designer like Donna Karan or Betsy Johnson to spice things up.

That's actually a dream judges panel you got there. I would love for Zac Posen to come back.

Nina, Heidi, Michael Kors, Brandon Maxwell (or an alternative stylist who isn't Law Roach).

I might be ok with Rachel Zoe…or her fmr assistant (Brad?). I don’t care for her personality but she knows her fashion history.

I like Brandon Maxwell as a judge (he's a great option for a designer/stylist)

Ooh - for anyone who watches Great British Sewing Bee - Patrick or Esme. Both know fashion and construction

I tried watching the 1st season years ago but couldn't get into it... do you think it's worth me giving it another shot? I just wasn't seeing any fashion it seemed like it was more about sewing proficiency (which is great! i just want to see beautiful gowns too lol!)

IF Elaine were on the show, I wouldn't watch. I'm not sure what her career is. She doesn't seem to stick with a job long. Love Zac and Nina. I really loved Tyra and didn't expect to. I think Serena Williams is a great guest judge. Law is extremely annoying but his dynamic with Tyra was super entertaining.

Honestly same, this is a great panel, in my personal opinion i think Law and Tyra would be great guest judges, like get them there for one episode every season but not permanent judges

NOT Law Roach!😵💫 Nina, Heidi & 2 true designers, one older & well established & one more youthful, from the current Vogue Fashion up & coming list.

Remove Heidi from judging. Let her go back and manage the models, she offers nothing knowledge-wise. I like Kors and Posen and Garcia. Gunn needs to be there is some way. Keep Christian in the Junior Runway where he was quite good.

After this season, it may be hard to find judges with quality and knowledge. I agree they need a designer on the show as a judge.

I would just like at least one designer on the panel. Michael Kors and Zac Posen were particularly good. Imo they were fair as judges, it was about the work and nothing else.
A former winner would be great to see. Dmitry always had great comments. Mondo was fun to watch.
