 'Project Runway' unveils season full of high stakes and fashion stars
"Project Runway" returns July 31 with Heidi Klum and Law Roach as 12 diverse designers compete for a career-changing win. 

LOS ANGELES -- New season, same fierce runway - Project Runway returns to discover fashion's next big star.

Twelve designers from diverse backgrounds will compete for a career-changing opportunity in this high-stakes reality competition.

"We're in a new home, with new rules," said returning host Heidi Klum.

Joining her are judges' celebrity stylist Law Roach and Elle magazine editor-in-chief Nina Garcia. Former "Project Runway" winner and designer Christian Siriano serves as contestant mentor.

The competition is intense as designers aim to impress and make their mark. The trailer teases both dazzling designs and devastating blows.

"That is a grandma skirt, girl. And I love my grandma, but no," Siriano says in one moment from the trailer.

This season also features a star-studded lineup of guest judges, including Christian Cowan, Harris Reed, Jenna Lyons, Joan Smalls, Michael Kors, Mickey Guyton, Nikki Glaser, Sara Foster, Sofia Vergara, Tyra Banks and Zac Posen.
