Over the course of 13 seasons and more than a dozen spinoff series, hundreds of drag queens have sashayed into and away from the Werk Room on “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” Over the years they’ve raised the fashion bar — some of them even challenging RuPaul Charles’ title as Supermodel of the World. Now the Great Pop Culture Debate wants to look back and decide: what are the Best Runway Looks from “RuPaul’s Drag Race” Seasons 1-6?

Host Eric Rezsnyak and panelists Curtis Creekmore, Gary Jackson, and Karissa Kloss head to the mainstage as they start at the first in a series, this time focusing on the best fashions from Seasons 1 through 6.
