The show is back (this time on Lifetime) and after much ado, the names of the contestants for this season have been revealed. Not surprising, they are from all over the world--and, of course, most live New York City.
Nicolas Putvinksi, Gordana Gehlhausen and Irina Shabeyeva are from Russia, Bosnia and the Republic of Georgia, respectively. Louise Black claims that she first thing she ever sewed was her wedding dress; when asked who his favorite designer is, Malvin Vien insists "me."
This season, set to air August 20th, looks to be more drama-filled than past ones. Maybe that's what LA does to fashion. "Look out for the girls," Klum said on Wednesday. "The girls are very strong on season six. There's a lot of crying, there's fighting going on, there's a lot of drama going on — but especially with the girls."
