Johnny Weir appears on Project Runway
Last night’s episode ‘Go for the Gold… Sequin’ focused on something a little different, seeing Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir ask designers for something for them to wear live when commentating during the 2022 Winter Olympics.
Other than boasting the title of a two time U.S. Olympian, three-time U.S. National Figure Skating Champion and 2008 World bronze medalist, Weir is also a self-proclaimed fashion icon.
In fact, the figure skater was the perfect choice guest client for ‘Go for the Gold… Sequin’, because he’s definitely worn his fair share of all things glitz, glam and sequin.
