Season 21 of Project Runway is turning up the temperature with eye-catching challenges and a judging panel that’s anything but predictable. Returning host Heidi Klum and EIC Nina García are joined by newcomer Law Roach—whose razor-sharp feedback is already igniting strong viewer reactions.

Law Roach: The Project Runway Season 21 Judge You Love to Hate (or Maybe Love to Love)
Law Roach’s arrival on the panel has sparked a wave of controversy—and excitement. On one hand, his brutally honest critiques—like telling a design he “hated the whole thing”—have left contestants in tears and fans divided.
But others are embracing his fierce commentary as much-needed edge: “Reality competitions have gotten too nice,” argues one piece, calling his blunt truths “great TV.” Another calls him “the best judge on reality TV just arrived,” praising his unapologetic presence.
Midseason Meltdowns & “Complimentary Couture” Drama
Project Runway Season 21 Episode 5—aptly titled “Complimentary Couture”—hit the halfway mark with high stakes. The prior peer-vote elimination saw Joseph exit; then, contestants faced a one-day challenge of crafting a fabric-based look to match their unconventional-materials piece. Tensions exploded around the twin brothers, with accusations of co-dependence. Veejay took the win, while Belania, Madeline, and Antonio landed in the bottom. Judge Nina Garcia remained composed, tactfully avoiding cringeworthy terminology on-air.
