** Also from that season, * Andrae Gonzalo (and his bubbly, outgoing personality) being the glue that kept the boys of room 35D (himself, Santino Rice, Nick Verreos, and Daniel Vosovic) together. For their last week together, the four guys took a lot of selfies together and had their own party on the rooftop.
* Nick's journey with his models starts with Zulema's memorable "walk-off" between Rachael (her original model), Tarah (Nick's model), and Danyelle (Andrae's model), ultimately choosing Tarah and leaving Nick upset. During the entire first day, Nick was constantly sulking about the model change, and even Tim started to talk badly about Rachael's body. After the first fit, Nick realizes that he has to change his mindset about the situation and treat Rachael better, and it's clear after this that the poor girl just had it rough with Zulema the entire time. Right after Nick starts to get more positive and bonds with Rachael better, Tarah looks from afar and runs to hug Nick because she just misses working with him that much, not helped by Zulema ''also'' treating Tarah badly.
** For the Reunion episode, Heidi and Tim invite Zulema and Rachael to give their inputs about the "Walk-off", and both agree that Nick was the best and sweetest designer they have worked with. Sure, Zulema didn't do anything wrong by requesting to switch models, but the way she treated the girls took away any point she had.

! Season 7
* Mila and Maya's IntergenerationalFriendship.

! Season 8



* After Season 9's Kimberly suffered a series of DisasterDominoes including ''sewing through her own finger'', she was clearly on the verge of a meltdown. Cue Tim Gunn coming around for his usual critique. He took one look at her and realized she most needed a giant hug, which he promptly gave her. Awwww.
* For Season 9's "What Women Want" challenge, the designers had to help male clients design a dress for their significant other. While most of the clients had trouble coming up with ideas, Anthony's client knew ''exactly'' what he wanted: a recreation of his wife's favorite dress, which she had lost at an airport years ago. Awww!

* [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Franco Daniel Franco]] in Season 2: although he was making a strong showing, he wound up as the leader of a losing team one week. When the team members were asked which should go home, Daniel stepped forward, accepted responsibility for the team's designs, spoke to the talents of his team members, and tearfully demanded that he be eliminated instead of either of them. Both of his teammates were left bawling their eyes out on the runway. In a situation where contestants often begin looking for someone to place blame on, or even set the situation up in advance to get their competition eliminated, Daniel sacrificed himself for his teammates.
** Also from that season, Andrae Gonzalo (and his bubbly, outgoing personality) being the glue that kept the boys of room 35D (himself, Santino Rice, Nick Verreos, Daniel Vosovic) together.

[[AC: Main Show]]



* The All Stars Season 4 challenge in which the designers had to create a party dress inspired by their own past, present, and future loves had plenty of tender moments. Special mention, however, goes to Justin [=LeBlanc=], who spoke of the fact he never expected to find love because he never wanted to be a burden on someone else due to his hearing disability, and then how he found a loving boyfriend who actually took the time to learn sign language just for him. Mentor Zanna Roberts Rassi is outright bawling throughout Justin's entire story.

[[AC: Project Runway Junior]]
!! General
* The show focuses less on cutthroat competition and more on supporting younger designers. Tim is more nurturing in his critique.
!! Season One

!! Season Two
* Cristian Syriano is one of the judges for the runway. As the hostess puts it, he's been in the younger generation's shoes and now is on the other side of the catwalk.
* Everyone is heartbroken when Molly gets eliminated not because her design was bad, but because by default it was the least put-together of all the stylists. The judges expressly tell her that she's going to do great things and should keep designing. The other competitors hug her.
* During the unconventional round, the other competitors comfort Akai when he believes he's going to get eliminated.
* Tim tells the competitors that their avant-garde competition was the best in the show's run.
* Tim uses his save to [[spoiler:keep Akai from getting eliminated]], though this causes a MassOhCrap with the other designers.

** Best part was that the husband looked like he was straight out of ''SonsOfAnarchy'', but was totally determined to give his wife back her dress. And when she walked the runway, you could tell how thrilled and happy she was.
