Supermodel and fashion icon Iman will be the new co-host of the second season of “The Fashion Show.”  

She will join designer Isaac Mizrahi who will be returning to the fashion competition series on Bravo.

“Breaking barriers in the fashion industry, Iman is a true pioneer and her unparalleled credibility will inspire the contestants and be a perfect match to the always exciting, Isaac Mizrahi,” said Frances Berwick, general manager and executive vice president of  Bravo Media.

Iman added, “I am so excited to be joining the Bravo team and to be working again with Isaac Mizrahi, my close friend of many, many years. I am also looking forward to all of the behind-the-scenes excitement and drama that is generated through the creative process of these undiscovered fashion designers. This will certainly be a show any follower of fashion will want to see.”

 Iman began her career in 1975 as a model and has challenged the prevailing notions of beauty ever since.   Her first modeling assignment was for Vogue in 1976. She was an instant success in the fashion world, and a muse for fashion designers including Yves. St. Laurent, Versace, Calvin Klein and Donna Karan.  During her 14 years as a model, she worked with top photographers Helmut Newton, Richard Avedon, Irving Penn and Annie Liebovitz.
