The Road to project RUNWAY Season 21: July 21, 2025

Ladies and Gentleman, The 12th Klumette is Revealed for Season 21 of Project Runway, Please Welcome Roberta Little!

Congratulations and we wish you the best as your journey begins in 10 days right here on Freeform for Sesaon 21 of Project Runway and DOTSGR has got you covered!

The Road to project RUNWAY Season 21: July 4, 2025

Well We Now Know the Models and the Decoys who are here this season, but we have a big announcement....

For the First Time Ever we are now under partnership with... 

(SCROLL DOWN HERE)

THE JACKING FACTORY!

All New This Season we are now under partnership with The Jacking Factory for this season however the roster will also include women who danced and also cheered in the NFL, the NBA and others as well as those women who are part of a High School or College Dance or Drill Team or also part of a High School Choir however they will perform with their full body but that's not all they will also perform with only the entire lower half of their body so their upper half will disappear as magic and will reappear at the end, get it?

The New Season of Project Runway will begin on July 31, 2025 on Freeform and to see all the fun of The Jacking Factory of Lower Halves in NBM Form, click this link.

Breaking News to Start Off Right Away: The Models of Dress My Tour will be Decoying This Season!

You Heard It Correct if you saw Hulu's Dress My Tour which is like Project Runway is coming to decoy this season on project RUNWAY and it will be exciting but what about the catch?

The Answer: It will be All Women Only because they will now be a part of the season 21 project RUNWAY Klumette Sisterhood.

So The Roster that these women will each be assigning a Klumette to paired up this season are in order of the skin color

Light (11): Amanda Lacount, Bella Bruno, Brittny Sugarman, Caho Kitaori, Corrie Wyse, Deanna Jenkins, Madison Asanye, Maycee Steele, Meagan Nugent, Ragon Miller, Yuki Murauchi
Dark (12): Angel Inniss, Candice Savage, Camryn Bridges, Charlize Glass, Da'nelle Garrett, Danielle H. Hawkins, Idaliz Christian, Janna Osborne, Jhana Waddell, Latoya Siplin, Myrosia Palmer, Nadja Hayes

So All Models paired with a Decoy Model of their own choosing but it has to be in the opposite skin color (So All Light Skinned Models paired with Dark Skinned Women on Decoy while All Dark Skinned Models will be paired Light Skinned Women on Decoy)

However Meagan Nugent will team up with Heidi Klum to choreograph all season long however we can maybe see those pros from dancing with the stars performing as well.

Season Starts July 31st so Don't Miss It.

We're Back for Season 21 of project RUNWAY and.....

Dancing on the Solid Gold Runway has got you covered with the return of Heidi Klum as Host and a New Set of Klumettes for Season 21 of project RUNWAY because they're here!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I Give You the Season 21 project RUNWAY Klumettes!
