New workspace, new host, and new mentor!

This season, 16 contestants will compete in brand-new facilities in an attempt to win the grand prize — a chance to show their collection at an exclusive runway show in front of industry insiders and the show's largest cash reward to date (over $250,000). Also worth looking forward to are the inclusion of plus-size models, flash sales, fast fashion, and a challenge involving Elton John.

Throughout the high-stakes competition, the contestants will have guidance from industry big shots like Kendall Jenner's personal stylist Marni Senofonte, Siriano's muse and actress Danielle Brooks, designer Dapper Dan, and rapper Cardi B.
