Project Runway's Christian Siriano Reveals How He's Different Than Tim Gunn as a Mentor

Project Runway‘s new stars Karlie Kloss, Elaine Welteroth, and Christian Siriano sit on stage while discussing the show during the 2019 Winter TCA Tour on Tuesday (January 29) in Pasadena, Calif.

Karlie is the new host of the show, Christian is the new mentor, and Brandon Maxwell and Elaine are joining the returning Nina Garcia on the judging panel.

Christian opened up at the event about how he will be different than previous mentor Tim Gunn.

“What’s really great about this season is that, for the first time, the mentor for the designers gets to be a designer,” Christian said (via Vulture). “Tim was never a designer. He never worked in the business. He was a teacher. When the designers have a red-carpet challenge, I can actually give them real feedback because I’d just dressed people at the Golden Globes the week before. I’m giving them real, fashion-industry feedback that can, hopefully, only help them.”

The 17th season of Project Runway will mark the show’s return to Bravo.

FYI: Karlie is wearing A.L.C. pants.
