Macpherson had announced she would no longer host Fashion Star but continue to serve as one of the show's executive producers in June.
"As executive producer of Fashion Star I'm really excited by our choice of Louise as host for the second season, I think her presence will energize and surprise," Macpherson reportedly said in a statement.
Roe said her new gig on Fashion Star is "an absolute dream job" for her, according to the website.
