This is the first time when as many as 20 new fashion designers will be allowed to compete for their chances.

The show will feature Heidi Klum along with her trusty co-judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia.

Mentor Tim Gunn and a bevy of celebrity judges including Kim Kardashian, Christina Ricci, Zoe Saldana and Malin Akerman will also be featured.

On the premiere of the new season, 20 chosen fashion designers will have to stand before judges and each contestant will explain why they deserve their chances.

Klum, Kors and Garcia will then choose 16 out of those 20 and will guide the contestants to "one of the toughest first challenges in the series' history."
