'Project Runway': Why Christian Siriano is the perfect fit for the revamped runway competition

If you think that Siriano cannot show us what we haven't seen, you're wrong. He fits into this season's new look like a pair of cashmere-lined vintage gloves and for good reason

'Project Runway' is making a comeback this March and it is no secret that everyone's watching. Not only because it is one of the most iconic fashion competitions we've had on television, but also because some of the people who've built the face of the show — Heidi Klum, Michael Kors and mentor Tim Gunn are a no-show. Instead, they've been replaced by supermodel Karlie Kloss, Brandon Maxwell and a former 'Project Runway' winner, fashion designer Christian Siriano. Siriano, out of the three new choices, perhaps has the largest shoes to fill — that of mentor Tim Gunn.
