Tim Gunn
If you want to, you can share my teaching refrain: I can't want you to succeed more than you do.

The clothes we wear send a message about how the world perceives us.
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.

I'm really not a trend promoter because I feel that people push trends on people they shouldn't.
Tim Gunn
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.
