Tyra Banks, Ciara to Appear as 'Project Runway' Season 22 Guest Judges
Hulu confirmed recurring judge Tyra Banks joined Project Runway Season 22, with the official trailer released in June 2026 offering viewers a first look at her new role.
The 22nd season, renewed by Disney last October, premieres July 9, 2026, across Freeform and Hulu after season 21 brought new challenges and drama.
Host Heidi Klum, mentor Christian Siriano, and judges Nina Garcia and Law Roach return to anchor the panel, maintaining continuity with previous seasons.
Footage from the trailer highlights Banks in her recurring role, featuring a tense exchange where she tells Roach, "No, you're overstepping." That dynamic signals fresh judging-panel conflict.
The season features 22 designers competing for the title alongside guest judges including Ciara, Iman, and Ice Spice, expanding the judging roster beyond the core panel.
