Project Runway’s Tim Gunn lands his own show on Bravo
Well, we have all heard the rumors about Tim Gunn not bring brought back for the fourth season of Project Runway. Well, it turns out Tim will have his own show on Bravo, and they both seem to be coy about saying whether or not Tim will also be back to do Project Runway as well.
The show, Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style, will show Tim has he turns a hapless fashionless guy into a stylin guy.
Using the book “Tim Gunn: A Guide to Quality, Taste & Style” (co-written with Kate Moloney) as a manual, Gunn will tutor everyday people on his style philosphy and how to “make it work” — from finding the right fit and revamping closets to proper grooming and selecting a fashion role model.
“I’m practically delirious that Bravo has given me this incredible opportunity and together, we vow to redefine ‘makeovers,’” says Gunn. “This series aims to be one-part education and two-parts fun, and you’ll see me being a fashion therapist, not a svengali.”
I suspect the success of this show will actually hinge on whether or not Tim is brought back to Project Runway. There is a lot of cross-promotion possibilities, but you also have to consider who the audience is for his new show and whether there is enough of that audience that will watch. That said, it would be a great show to put on right after Project Runway.
