Hilary Swank might not be the first person you'd think of when asked for a list of fashion-forward celebs, but you've gotta admit that she's got style. The Oscar-winning actress has rarely seen the wrong side of a Best-and-Worst-Dressed slideshow, and even when she makes less-conventional dress choices (like the high-necked, long-sleeved, surprise-backless navy number she wore for her 2005 Best Actress coup), she always looks impeccable on the red carpet. So while "Pat Sajack, but hotter" wouldn't have been our prediction for her next role, it's not totally weird that Hilary has been tapped to host a fashion-related game show on The CW.
The project is still untitled and in development, but don't expect a "Project Runway"-style elimination game—according to Vulture, it's a studio show that tests a group of alleged fashionistas on their knowledge of all things clothing and couture. (Though no details have been released, I'm assuming the show will be virtually identical to a game my parents used to play every morning, called, "You Can't Wear A Floral Tie With A Plaid Shirt, You Dolt.") Winners will receive big, fashion-related prizes. Losers will go home wearing nothing but a burlap sack.
Probably.
