Tim Gunn was in Atlanta on Saturday for the Lucky Brand Fashion Show at the Perimeter Mall.
Tim generously granted an interview to BPR before the show. Thanks Tim!
BPR: Any news on Season 10?
TG: Season 10 is a go!
BPR: Contract signed, sealed and delivered?
TG: We're working on it. You know that I will be with Project Runway until the very end.
BPR: So will we of course!
BPR: Tim, will you rank the season 9 finalists in the order that you believe they should have finished?
TG: Viktor, Kimberly, Josh, Anya
BPR: Was Kimberly your favorite?
TG: Kimberly and Anthony Ryan
BPR: Awww... I thought you liked Anthony Ryan...
We loved the "Tim Gunn Behind the Seams" program.
TG: Thank you. The audience for "Behind the Seams" pulled in 2 million more viewers than the Project Accessory lead-in.
BPR: It was really great. Where was Joshua?
TG: He had another commitment. I believe a speaking engagement.
BPR: Were you surprised that Josh came in second in the finale?
TG: Yes.
BPR: What is the status of "Tim Gunn's Fashion Bible?"
TG: We have finished writing it, but there is still more work to do. It is scheduled for release in September 2012.
BPR: How long is it?
TG: It's 85,000 words. I'm not sure how many pages it will be.
BPR: Are there illustrations?
TG: Mostly photos, unless we couldn't find a photo of what we needed.
BPR: Tim, please describe what "The Revolution" Show is about.
TG: "The Revolution" follows a woman's five-month journey in five days. We cover an amalgam of issues - health, fitness, relationships, style, (personal fashion and home.) There are experts in various fields who assist each woman in her journey.
BPR: And you are the style expert.
TG: Yes.
BPR: Are you on every episode, every day?
TG: We haven't filmed all of the days yet. I'm not sure how it will be put together.
BPR: Is there a studio audience?
TG: Yes
BPR: Tim, you are always so busy!
TG: I'm the luckiest guy in the world!
