Next In Fashion has become Netflix’s latest one-season wonder despite proving to be a hit with viewers and critics.

The series, fronted by Alexa Chung and Queer Eye’s Tan France, saw 18 budding designers compete for a seriously impressive prize of $250,000 (£198,000) and their own collection sold on Net-a-Porter.

However, it’s now been confirmed that the workroom has closed for good with Variety quoting France, 37, as saying: “We’re not doing a second season.”

“This is a one-season show, we don’t know what will happen in the future,” he continued. “But it was honestly one of the proudest things I’ve ever worked on. I love the show and Alexa so much.

“My focus is definitely on Queer Eye and moving forward with that.”

We won't spoil it in case you still haven't watched it, but the series wasn't without its drama as the designers first battled in pairs before going up against each other individually in a bid for the prize.

The show was also in keeping with Netflix's global approach to television, with contestants hailing from East London, Shenzen, Brooklyn and everywhere in between.

Next In Fashion is the latest in a long line of Netflix shows canned over just outing.

Messiah, which debuted earlier this year, has suffered the same fate, as has figure skating drama Spinning Out.

Queer Eye, which first brought France to our attention, has thankfully stood the test of time with a fifth series debuting today.
