Luna Kayne Biography & Facts

The twentieth season of Project Runway was announced to air with a two-part premiere on Bravo on June 15, 2023. To celebrate this milestone season, the show invited fourteen designers from across all nineteen seasons to return for an All-Stars format competition instead of appearing on its separate spin-off show, which was retired after the bankruptcy of its former production company, The Weinstein Company. Elle editor-in-chief Nina Garcia, fashion designer Brandon Maxwell, and journalist Elaine Welteroth all reprised their roles as judges, while season 4 winner Christian Siriano reprised his role as mentor on the show. They were joined by guest judges on the panel each week. The winner was Bishme Cromartie, who returned after initially competing on Season 17, and received a cash prize of $250,000, a mentorship with the Council of Fashion Designers of America, and a spread in Elle magazine.
