'Project Runway': Prajje fails unconventional materials challenge, fans are shocked

Fans didn't agree with the judges' decision to eliminate Prajje and took to Twitter to express the same

The much-awaited "unconventional materials challenge" is finally here on 'Project Runway. The Bravo show's mentor Christian Siriano and judge Brandon Maxwell invited the remaining eight designers in the competition to a bar and revealed that they would have to design a cocktail dress using the materials from the bar. From upholstery to straws, the designers could pick anything from the bar to design their dream dress.

Thankfully the designers had two days to create the cocktail dress that would impress the judges- Nina Garcia, Elaine Welteroth, Brandon, and special guest judge for the challenge, fashion designer Christopher John Rogers. From coffee filters to exit signs, the designers got really creative with their designs, unfortunately, Prajje Oscar Jean-Baptiste's design failed to make its mark on the judges, which led him to get eliminated from the competition.

Prajje channeled his Haitian heritage to design a dress using doilies to create a lace effect. When Christian saw Prajje's design he warned the designer that the excessive use of doilies might make it look like an arts-and-crafts project but Prajje didn't pay any heed to his feedback and confidently continued to use doilies in his dress. As Christian predicted, the judges felt that Prajje's model was drowning in the doilies and labeled the dress as an arts and crafts project. Although he was in the bottom with Anna Zhou and Chasity Sereal, the judges decided to save the ladies as they felt that they nailed the structure and silhouette that Prajje's design lacked. 

Fans didn't agree with the judges' decision to eliminate Prajje and took to Twitter to express the same. A fan tweeted, "WHAT!!!! Prajae? Nah man, that’s a mistake #ProjectRunway." Another fan wrote, "Ugh. I’m so sad! Prajje was such a fun personality on the show. #ProjectRunway." "Losing Zayden and Prajjé back to back. I am not okay. #ProjectRunway," added a fan.

Another fan shared, "Silver dress should've won over the black straws. Too bad someone had to leave this week. I think the wrong person went home too #projectrunway." "Aaawww. Prajje!!! Why am I ugly crying? #ProjectRunway," expressed a fan. "Mm Prajje did not deserve to go. Yea would have gone with chastity #ProjectRunway," commented a fan.

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