Finally, the fabled sixth season of Project Runway is gearing up. The seemingly lost season of TV's top fashion design show has just announced the cast list for the upcoming, and much delayed, season. The cast who has been waiting a year for their show to air includes:

• Althea Harper, 24 - Hometown: Dayton, OH; Resides in Brooklyn, NY
• Ari Fish, 26 - Hometown/Resides in Kansas City, MO
• Carol Hannah Whitfield, 24 - Hometown: Anderson, SC; Resides in Brooklyn, NY
• Christopher Straub, 30 - Hometown: St. Louis Park, MN; Resides in Shakopee, MN

• Irina Shabayeva, 27 - Hometown: The Republic of Georgia; Resides in New York, NY
• Johnny Sakalis, 30 - Hometown: Long Beach, CA; Resides in Los Angeles, CA

We still have a little bit of a wait until we can actually watch the next season of Project Runway. It doesn't premier until August 20. There will be a few changes as well. The next season takes place in Los Angeles instead of New York and the show will be airing on Lifetime instead of Bravo. But otherwise, we can expect the same kind of tears, threads and high-strung snits we've come to rely upon from Project Runway.
