"PROJECT Runway" isn't alone in switching allegiance from Elle magazine to Marie Claire.
One of the show's three judges, Nina Garcia , who was fashion director at Elle until recently, is said to be going to Marie Claire, too. The show's winning models and designers will now be featured in the Hearst title rather than Elle.
A Marie Claire rep said: "We have no personnel announcements at this time." A rep for Garcia didn't return calls.
