Tim Gunn and a Mini Project Runway Challenge

June 9, 2010 By 7 Comments

Last night I met Tim Gunn.  He is one of the most kind, genuine people I have met.

I walked into the room feeling decidedly fashion-less…..but a man like Tim can change that.  He issued a challenge to our group of women (we were on teams) – take a T-shirt and a secret bag of ‘goodies’ and create something that is “stylish, innovative and says ‘fashion’”.  I’d say our team of lovely ladies did pretty well.

This evening was part of an event sponsored by Procter & Gamble and included a trip to P&G’s global headquarters to learn about fabric care: Tide, Downey and Bounce.  I learned so much – will definitely be sharing more soon!

    Danielle, this looks like so much fun! I am working with a producer from Project Runway right now and he says that Tim is one of the nicest, most genuine guys in the biz. You are so lucky to have worked with him on this! It looks like you guys had a blast and your design was very innovative. ;) You are adorable! xoxo. B

    Britt – he really is THAT genuine. So kind, attentive and supportive of all of us….. and as his caliber of celebrity – you just know that he doesn’t have to do it…but he does.

    Can’t wait to hear what you are working on!
