Project Runway's Coral Castillo mocked for sequined loungewear: 'Her look was a mess'

Several fans took to Twitter to mock Coral for thinking sequins were comfortable

When thinking of comfortable loungewear what's the first thing that pops in your head? Pajamas, plaid sets, an airy kaftan? Well, for 'Project Runway' designer Coral Castillo it's sequins. The recently aired episode of Bravo's hit 'Project Runway' featured the designers being tasked with the challenge of creating luxe yet comfy loungewear, something that can be worn both inside and outside the house. Considering we spent a little over a year in these loungewear outfits, you'd think that the designers would find this challenge a cakewalk, but you'd be dead wrong to assume that.

From picking the right fabric to creating a flattering silhouette, the designers struggled really hard to put together a piece for the challenge. In the end, the designers sent the models down the runway for the judges Nina Garcia, Brandon Maxwell, Elaine Welteroth, and guest judge Maria Cornejo. Although Octavio Aguilar and Zayden Skipper were eliminated from the competition, the judges were still struck by Coral Castillo's eye-catching sequined number. While the outfit looked absolutely stunning, they wondered who would wear sequins while lounging on their couch eating a pizza.

The judges felt that Coral failed to understand the theme or instead chose to focus on the "going out" aspect of the challenge without considering the comfort aspect. In the end, the judges advised her to pay closer attention to the theme and the details going forward and declared that she was still in the competition. While the judges gave Coral a pass, fans however didn't. Several fans took to Twitter to mock Coral for thinking sequins were comfortable.

A fan tweeted, "How did Coral escape elimination?!? Her look was a mess!!! Who lounges around sparkly metallic sequins?? Sad to see Zayden go but it was time, he’s been regressing. #ProjectRunway." Another fan wrote, "Just running to Duane Reede for tampons! In my sequins. As one does. #ProjectRunway." "We all wear sequins when we are hanging out on the couch. Coral missed the challenge #ProjectRunway," commented a fan.

Another fan shared, "How is sequins loungewear? Lol #ProjectRunway." "Coral lost the plot as soon as she picked SEQUINS FOR A COMFORT CHALLENGE. #ProjectRunway," declared a fan. "Sequins are never comfortable #ProjectRunway," added a fan.

'Project Runway' Season 19 airs every Thursday at 9/8c on Bravo.
