Tim Gunn Continues on 'Project Runway'

Bravo announced Thursday that handsome fashion guru Tim Gunn will be back to mentor young wannabe fashion designers for the fourth season of Bravo's hit show 'Project Runway.'

"I am thrilled to make it official that I will be back in the workroom for season four of Project Runway," Gunn said. "We are in the midst of casting the designers now, and I can already see that it will be another amazing season."

Host Heidi Klum, together with judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia, have all long been ready for the new season, while Tim Gunn was the only Runway player without a new deal, and insiders speculated that Gunn might not return to the show.

In recent months, Gunn has moved from chair of fashion at Parsons The New School of Design to chief creative officer of Liz Claiborne. He has also gotten his own series on Bravo, Tim Gunn's Guide to Style.

The casting process for the fourth season of 'Runway' kicked off last week in Los Angeles. Auditions for the show will then move to New York, Miami and Chicago.
