Chris March no more

Project Runway’s Chris March dead at 56.

Chris March, the fashion and costume designer, who competed in Project Runway Season 4 and designed for Beyoncé, Gaga, Madonna, Meryl, Prince and many legendary downtown drag queens, died at the age of 56 following a long health battle.

According to Eonline, Chris, who’d appeared on Project Runway All Stars, landed his own series Mad Fashion and launched a successful costume and accessories line with Target, had suffered a near-fatal fall in his apartment in 2017, which left him in a coma for the next two months. A GoFundMe launched on Chris’s behalf to help offset the financial woes of his ongoing medical treatments raised nearly $60,000 of his $100,000 goal. Following his hospitalisation, Chris entered a nursing facility.

Then, just a few months ago, Chris shared another update on his health, revealing he had “run into several setbacks in my recovery” and “there is a long road of physical therapy ahead of me.”

Here’s wishing peace and love Chris’s loved ones at this time.
