'Project Runway All Stars' Brings Together Old Faves With Angela Lindvall (PHOTOS)

After tons of fun speculation, Angela Lindvall has been confirmed as host of "Project Runway All Stars," People reports, but those aren't the only details about the upcoming series.

Also at the helm will be Isaac Mizrahi and Georgina Chapman of Marchesa as judges (leaving room for a weekly guest judge, we hope). Editor-in-chief of Marie Claire Joanna Coles acting as the contestants' mentor à la Tim Gunn.

The "All Star" contestants coming back for second chance at design glory include fan favorites such as the flamboyant Austin Scarlett, the very tatted Kathleen "Sweet P" Vaughn and the adorable Season 8 runner-up Mondo Guerra, writes the Hollywood Reporter.

The 13 contestants will compete for what Lifetime calls "the most lucrative prizing ever in 'Project Runway' history" -- an exclusive designer's boutique in select Neiman Marcus stores and on NeimanMarcus.com, $100,000 dollars in technology and office space from HP and Intel, $100,000 cash from L'Oreal Paris, a feature spread in Marie Claire, for which he or she will serve as a guest editor for one year and a sewing and embroidery studio from Brother International.

One thing this winner won't receive? The chance to show in the storied Bryant Park tents, an obsession of past "Project Runway" contestants.

Have fun at Lincoln Center, kids.

The 12-episode season of "Project Runway All Stars" will premiere later this year on Lifetime. Click through below to see who of your favorites are back to compete.

They shouldn't do an all star show. It's a watering down of the franchise. And I'll probably right in front of the TV for the whole thing.

Mondo should have won his season, not that wannabe hippy, Gretchen.

So much dirt, so little time.

Looks to me like they're bringing them back because they were controversial contestants, not the cream of the crop in terms of talent. Except for Mondo. Mondo was robbed.

Me too! I'd called it quite several times before, because frankly, I thought Jeffery didn't deserve his win, and neither did the woman who won the one season they were in LA, but Mondo was just robbed robbed robbed. I'd just had it with that one. He so very much deserved to win.

Maaloc, I am giving it one more chance, but if they do any more stunt guest-judging, like with Kim Kardashian, I just may give up on it. No WAY should that whateversheis be given that kind of recognition!

After they dissed Mondo for that god-awful Gretchen last year, this show is dead to me.

I am shocked that they are still trying to force Mizrahi on us.
Why can't they accept his irrelevence.

I would want to see that African--American lady who was rather round faced, who designed that dress with the lettuce collar. She designed great clothes, and she could use another chance. Unfortunately I don't remember her name?

There are only two reality shows that I like---One is America's Best Dance Crew, because the judges are always positive, upbeat, and supportive. There is never a mean word spoken on that show and I think that is great.

The other is this show, because it is creative and at least partly based on real talent. The up-against-the-clock competitiveness is a bit much, but it still beats all those catty model shows. I would remove the elimination each week, and give fewer people several weeks to compete. We can all have a bad day.

Was Elisa the one who worked with puppets and spit on everything to mark it instead of using chalk?
