For those following the saga of Nina Garcia's role with Elle magazine and Project Runway, the verdict is still out.
The Colombian-born fashionista got her start in the 1990s working in the PR department at Perry Ellis. She became the fashion director for Elle in 2000. Sources reported last Friday that she was let go as fashion director for the magazine. As such, she may lose her spot as a guest judge on the famed Project Runway show.
This morning, it was reported Nina had been offered a "small consulting role" with Elle, which may allow her then to remain as a guest judge for at least one more season on Project Runway. Should Nina decide against accepting Elle's offer, sources say it would be difficult to allow her to guest judge Project Runway due to the magazine's relationship with the show.
