Project Runway Season 16 is the sixteenth season of the television show Project Runway, appearing on Lifetime. The season began on Thursday, August 17, 2017.[1] There are 16 designers competing to become "the next great American designer." Supermodel Heidi Klum, Marie Claire creative director Nina Garcia, and fashion designer Zac Posen are all returning as judges this season. Tim Gunn maintains his role as the workroom mentor.

Season 16 will be the first time the show will emphasize diversity and inclusivity in the size of its models who will range from sizes 0 to 22.[2]

In May 2016, Lifetime renewed Project Runway through its eighteenth season, in a deal with The Weinstein Company.[3]
