There seems to be no one more qualified or equipped to ponder or even, dare I say, dictate 'quality, taste, and style' than Tim." -Sarah Jessica Parker, actor/producer

Editorials

From Barnes & Noble

Style has been defined as an expression of individualism mixed with charisma; the perfection of a point of view; and a possession beyond any price. However we think of it, style is sought by us all. Every week on Project Runway, Parson fashion design chair Tim Gunn offers the show's millions of viewers valuable insights into this elusive subject. In his first book, he covers a wealth of topics, many of which are not discussed on the show. He explains, for instance, how to dress for everyday occasions; how to shop rich or poor; how to buy clothes for a man; and how to be your own best fashion designer. Remember: Fashion fades, style is eternal.
