Harvey Weinstein included as an exec producer on the show
Designers, Tim Gunn has news for you.
The often imitated but never replicated mentor on “Project Runway” has received his own fashion competition titled “Under the Gunn.” Show will air on Lifetime, the same net that boasts “Runway.”
Series will bring “Runway” alums Mondo Guerra, Anya Ayoung-Chee and Nick Verreos on board as mentors to teams of designers that battle it out in a series of fashion competitions. The panel of critics lining the judges’ table on “Under the Gunn” include designer Rachel Roy, celeb stylist Jen Rade and Marie Claire’s senior fashion editor Zanna Roberts Rassi.
Lifetime will debut the 13-episode first run on Jan. 16.
“Under the Gunn” is produced by The Weinstein Company and Bunim-Murray Prods. Executive producers include Bob and Harvey Weinstein (Co-Chairmen of The Weinstein Company), Meryl Poster and Barbara Schneeweiss of The Weinstein Company, Jonathan Murray, Sara Rea and Teri Weidman of Bunim-Murray Productions and Gunn. Eli Lehrer, Mary Donahue and David Hillman of Lifetime also executive produce.

My distaste for Anya overwhelms my liking for Tim Gunn and Mondo.
So happy for you, such a class act, you are a pleasure to watch, you command such respect from peers.
This is going to be awesome! Tim is always brutally honest and will ensure only the top notch makes it to the end.

Will Tim stick around on Runway? Is this welcome competition to the Runway and Elves team?
Can’t wait to see it!
Great, something to look forward to this winter. Current TV programing, for the most part, is full of options that aren’t worth watching. Looking forward to an intelligent creative show.
Can’t wait!
Anticipation reigns!
Finally, I can not wait. Tim is inspiring and has such an honest and pure way about him. He is absolutely the best, there is a saying in our house now when things start to get frustrating,and it puts a smile on our faces and we keep on moving forward. It is “Make It Work”. Thank You Tim, you have inspired my family as well. congratulations look forward to your show.
Cannot wait!!!!!!!!
Tim Gunn has a brilliant eye for fashion, style and what is marketable. I have a feeling this show will be delightfully brilliant and entertaining, as well as unique and refreshing.
