'Tim Gunn's Guide to Style' Returns in October

Gretta Monahan steps in as new fashion accomplice

Tim Gunn is back to offer women some much-needed fashion guidance.

The fashion guru returns for his second season of "Tim Gunn's Guide to Style" on Thursday, Oct. 2 at 11 p.m. ET/PT, before moving to its regular timeslot on Thursday, Oct. 16 at 10 p.m.

This time around, he's accessorized with a new fashion accomplice, Gretta Monahan, a fashion expert, stylist and salon/spa owner. She replaces model Veronica Webb who aided Gunn in his freshman season.

"I am absolutely crazy about Gretta and together she and I want every woman to achieve her perfect signature look," says Gunn. "It takes hard work and commitment to look good, but it should also be fun – our hope is that we'll inspire women everywhere to put their best foot forward and with cute shoes, too!"

Monahan adds, "For years, I've been styling a range of clients from real women to red carpet celebrities both on and off-camera and in my experience, I have never encountered a show like this, which proves style is not superficial."

In each episode, Gunn and Monahan will team up to help the self-proclaimed style-challenged make themselves over using Gunn's rules. Monahan will guide the women's choices on shopping challenges.
