Utica Queen, a memorable contestant from RuPaul's Drag Race season 13 has been announced as a designer on season 21 of Project Runway. While she didn't win any challenges on Drag Race, her unique style and personality made her a standout. This season also features the return of Heidi Klum as head judge, along with veteran judge Nina Garcia and guest judges like Tyra Banks and Michael Kors. Utica, whose real name is Ethan Mundt, emphasized the significance of this crossover for the fashion and drag communities.
This moment marks the first ever Drag Race crossover onto Project Runway, and that's not lost on me. It's more than a look, it's a symbol.
Utica/ Ethan joins the franchise alongside 11 other contestants for the season, which will also mark the return of Hallowe'en queen Heidi Klum as head judge.
Though she never won a challenge on season 13 of RuPaul's Drag Race, there's no denying that the season wouldn't have been the same without her.
Utica truly made her mark on the Drag Race ecosystem, showcasing stunning runway looks and becoming an unexpected lipsync assassin.
