Judging the Judges: Heidi, Michael & Nina

The Duchess and his two backup singers hit Good Morning America to pole-dance for the new season of Project Runway. Let’s assess.

stop by ‘Good Morning America’ in New York City.

What a shocking sartorial turn of events for M. Kors! We’re rendered speechless by his risk-taking!

Okay, let’s move on to the ladies.

It’s not our favorite look in the world – shiny animal print, after all – but this provides some decent coverage for Frau Samuel, who failed to learn the English words “decent” and “coverage” somewhere along the way. We like the shoes. Yes, we can sometimes give a stamp of approval to T-straps. To our thinking, these work because there’s an elegance to the proportions on them. Too often, the straps are too thick or hit the ankle at a bad spot. The real tragedy here is that belt. Leopard skin AND a spiked belt? She’s like the bad girl in a John Hughes movie.

We just knew Nina chica wouldn’t let us down. We take issue with the color here, because it’s a bit close to her skin tone, but we love the simple elegance and the criss-crossed belt. A perfectly chic Manhattan day look. And a bit of an ass-kiss tip of the hat to her co-judge. Heidi’s like the Honey Badger. She don’t give a shit. She’ll wear what she wants, no matter which designer is sitting next to her.

Here, the ladies tease with some tidbits (including first challenge and how many are going home) for the premiere:
