"Mad Men"
"The Slobification of America" -- Tim Gunn on "Tim Gunn's Guide to Style"
I heard
Tim Gunn
use this great expression in one of the commercials
for upcoming episodes he said, "...the slobification
{sp?} of America" on his new reality, makeover show,
"Tim
Gunn's Guide to Style".
This is something that's bothered me for years
and
Tim Gunn
has so saliently summed up this American style crisis
with this fantastic expression. I have to say I
wasn't sure about the show before it started but I
want to go on the record and state that I'm really
enjoying the show and I like the interaction between
him and
Veronica Webb.
Based upon what we know of
Tim Gunn
from his mentorship role on
Bravo's
hit, "Project
Runway"
he steps right into this role with absolute
credibility. His resume is certainly impressive and I
was thrilled to read about his new role at
Liz Claiborne.
He strikes me a genuinely sincere man with incredible
knowledge to help these women really see themselves
and come out on the other side with the confidence
and knowledge to dress, and shop. Shopping is fun,
it's some sort of magic when you put on the perfect
article of clothing, its transformational in the
context of the immediate boost of confidence it can
instill. So, back to "Tim
Gunn's Guide to Style"
give it try it's on on
Bravo TV
on Thursdays at 10 / 9c. I myself joined the
time-shifting
DVR
set years ago and I can't imagine living without
a
DVR.
I love to setup a series recording for a show like
this and then I can watch it when it suits me. Don't
forget Tim Gunn's book, "Guide
to Style"
- his knowledge and mentorship are available for
on-going reference if you buy yourself a copy.
