Karlie Kloss and Christian Siriano take over for Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn on Project Runway


Talk about a whole new look!

When Project Runaway returns in 2019, it will be on a different network and feature different hosts.

It was announced this summer that the reality competition show was moving from Lifetime back to its original network, Bravo. And in September, Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn announced they were leaving the series to launch their own Amazon Studios project. Now we know who will be taking their place for season 17: Karlie Kloss and Christian Siriano.

Kloss will also serve as executive producer. In addition, Elle editor-in-chief Nina Garcia will return as a judge — but this time she’ll be sitting next to fashion designer Brandon Maxwell and journalist and former Teen Vogue editor-in-chief Elaine Welteroth.

“As someone who grew up watching Project Runway, I could not be more excited to host and produce a series that provides a platform to aspiring American designers as they pursue their creative and entrepreneurial dreams,” Kloss says in a statement released to EW. “I am equally as thrilled to work alongside an incredibly talented group of fashion innovators — Brandon Maxwell, Elaine Welteroth, Nina Garcia, and Christian Siriano — to inspire, support and help guide these designers as they realize their visions and build everlasting brands and businesses.”

“Project Runway has offered such wonderful opportunities for so many and I’m excited to take on this role as a mentor,” adds Siriano, who won the competition in season 4. “I hope to guide and inspire the new talent on the rise.” 

Pre-production has already begun on season 17 of Project Runway.

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form. There have been a record nine theatrically released superhero movies based on comic books this year alone, each claiming a major piece of the glo...
