More quotes by Tim Gunn
The element of fashion I'd like to see more often? Clothes that fit people well. For me it's not so much about the clothes.
Tim Gunn
The clothes we wear send a message about how the world perceives us.
Tim Gunn
At all costs, avoid clothes that are too big. The more volume your clothes have, the more volume you appear to have.
Tim Gunn
If you're wearing a jacket, as I always am, the sweater vest always needs to be buttoned, with the exception of the bottom button. But if you're going sans jacket, you can leave it open.
Tim Gunn
When it comes to dressing, comfort is overrated. A little discomfort probably means your clothes fit and they're not pajamas.
Tim Gunn
Being in the moment is everything. So being in the moment for me is just letting the narrative play out, listening to the designers and giving them helpful feedback about what they're doing.
Tim Gunn
If you want to write an angry e-mail, write it but don't send it. It's based on my experience that whenever I have acted out in some manner, I have always regretted it.

If you want to, you can share my teaching refrain: I can't want you to succeed more than you do.
Tim Gunn
If you had pockets, you were associated with a labor force. It meant you had things to carry yourself. Otherwise, your lady's maid or your manservant would have done it for you.
Tim Gunn
Life is a collaboration, it's not a solo act.
Tim Gunn
I believe in the semiotics of clothes. They send a message about how the world perceives us. For me it goes beyond clothes, it's grooming. It's accessories. It's the whole head to toe look.
Tim Gunn
I'm so lucky. I've met a lot of famous people.
Tim Gunn
We can wear whatever we want and get away with it. Just be confident about being who you are and dressing for that person.
Tim Gunn
There's nothing I like better than going to my apartment, closing the door, cooking my little dinner for one and just tuning out. My apartment really is my haven. It's a nest where I go to heal.
Tim Gunn
Leggings are everywhere, indeed. Personally, I'm not crazy about them, but they can look great with the right look, a tunic, for instance, or a long cardigan. Just don't try to dress them up!
Tim Gunn
I believe that treating other people well is a lost art.
Tim Gunn
It's not an area where designers want to focus or pay attention - women who are larger than a size 12.
Tim Gunn
If I could predict the trends, they would already be there.
Tim Gunn
Being a student in an art & design school, that was the moment for me, that was when I began to develop a lot of self-confidence and really come into my own.
