Nicole Richie And Jeremy Scott Are Making The Cut Season 3’s Judges

Making the Cut is back with Season 3 and a few judges are making their return, too. Following a successful second season, the fashion competition series on Prime Video will make its highly-anticipated comeback this summer.

The new season will feature 10 talented designers taking on even more rigorous creative challenges in hopes to score not only the first-place title but quite a stacked grand prize, as well. Though more information on the third season is rolling out over the following weeks, the first glimpse into the upcoming episodes so far reveals Nicole Richie and Jeremy Scott are joining alongside the show’s beloved mainstays Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn on the judging panel.

“I am excited for Making the Cut to return this summer for its third season,” said Heidi Klum in an official statement. “I was so happy to be reunited with Tim, Nicole, and Jeremy as we searched for the next great global fashion brand among our most talented group of designers yet! This season’s fashion far exceeded our expectations and there are so many amazing looks that I cannot wait to wear myself.”

Tim Gunn also added, “After watching the success of our past designers, including winners Andrea Pitter and Jonny Cota, I’m tremendously excited for fans to see what this season’s enormously talented group of designers has in store.”

The New Season Will Be Set In Los Angeles

Similar to Making the Cut’s second season from 2021, the upcoming episodes are also filmed out in Los Angeles, with its diverse fashion scene continuing to serve as the show’s go-to backdrop.

With the show’s premise featuring a rotating panel of judges, including the likes of Naomi Campbell, Carine Roitfeld, Joseph Altuzarra, and more in the past, Season 3 will include the return of some of our favorite industry icons who will join Klum and Gunn. This time around, actress and House of Harlow 1960 creative director — not to mention, Y2K superstar — Nicole Richie, along with top designer Jeremy Scott will serve as judges, with other guest judges throughout the episodes to be revealed at a later date.

Season 3 Will Be Full of Even More Over-The-Top Challenges
