Season 16

For the first time in Project Runway history, Season 16 breaks out of the conventional modeling mold and celebrates body diversity by incorporating size inclusive models on the catwalk.

As a true reflection of all women across America, models range from 0 to 22, and this season's designers must show off their skills and ability to make stunning creations, for any size.

Hosts and dynamic duo Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn return to the runway alongside fashion authorities Nina Garcia, Marie Claire's Creative Director; and Zac Posen, designer and creative director for Brooks Brother Women.

Guest judges making their way to the runway this season include Demi Lovato, Katie Holmes, Olivia Munn, Yolanda Hadid, Kate Upton, Maggie Q, Kelsea Ballerini, Dove Cameron, China Anne McClain, Asia Kate Dillon, Carly Chaikin, Maddie Ziegler, Sophia Stallone, Georgina Chapman, Rachel Brosnahan and Anne Fulenwider.
