Tim Gunn is a fashion god!By Melissa WayneTim Gunn is a fashion god and ANYONE with even a passing interest in fashion; fashion history; or who has clothes in their closet should own this book! Written in Tim Gunns appealing voice; this book is unusual; informative; and a fabulous read! Not only does the reader learn about where our modern clothes comes from; but also why this history is important for all of us to understand on some level. Filled with tips; I cannot recommend this book highly enough!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
