‘Project Runway’ warm up

Posted by shopgirl

Posted: July 13, 2008 - 9:53 pm

I fell in love with this “Time” interview with Tim Gunn. The best parts: his opinion of Crocs and “the comfort trap,” and this quote: “Fashion is really a form of semiotics. It sends a message.”

Don’t you just love how he says exactly what you’re thinking, but he makes it sound so much better? I do!

More excited for the “Project Runway” season five premiere on July 16? Good, me too.
