The fit of jeans can be worlds apart from brand to brand. If you can find the right fit, skinny jeans can be very flattering.
Tim Gunn
As I've matured, I've developed more confidence in pattern mixing and in having a slimmer fit and in taking some risks, and I enjoy it!

I have one brand I go to, and it's Suit Supply, and it's fantastic. I was spending $3,500-$4000 on a suit, and the suit I'm wearing today was $500. And they last you forever. The shoulders are set in by hand, it's phenomenal.

Don't give up! You're too talented. You're too good!

I believe that it's very important to get to know people with whom you can have a substantive dialogue about design and its development. In addition, read everything about fashion that you can get your hands on. A palpable point of view is what makes a designer, so you need to be confident about yours.

It's so important to reach out to people you trust, and who can give you honest feedback, and keep those people close to you. You don't want to surround yourself with enablers.
Tim Gunn
Remember someone is going to be out, so don’t make it you.
Tim Gunn

Tim Gunn
It was very challenging to mentor the mentors, and yes, you do see more sides of my personality.
Tim Gunn
Things are recalibrated according to new perspectives and perceptions. It's fascinating to me.
Tim Gunn
I was a teacher and an administrator at Parson's School of Design, and as an administrator, I was associate dean. And in that role, I went around fixing things that were broken. And the Parson's fashion program was broken.So fashion chose me. It needed to be developed and evolve. I don't know if it comes naturally to anyone.
Tim Gunn
I just think the Kardashians have an absence of taste and I don’t think that that should be perpetuated. I’m sorry I’m sounding like an old farty, snob, but it bothers me.
Tim Gunn
I'm not sure what the moral is here...I really just wanted to tell that story.
Tim Gunn
I really cherish having my private time and being alone and being able to decompress. It's my own version of meditating.
Tim Gunn
May I respond by merely saying, I hate crocs. May they please go away.

Everyone has a best feature, so find clothes and accessories to accentuate those, whether it’s your shoulders or your long legs!
