Arlington, TX

Fashion designer and television personality Tim Gunn will be making an appearance at the Dillard’s in the Parks at Arlington Mall this Saturday, November 17 at 1:00 p.m.

Gunn, a native of Washington, D.C., has appeared as a mentor and judge on Bravo’s show Project Runway since its first season in 2004. Project Runway is a reality competition show in which contestants compete to create the best clothes within the limitations of time, materials, and theme. Their designs are judged and one or more are eliminated each week. Gunn is known to Project Runway viewers for catchphrases like “Make it work” and “Carry on.” He also has another series, Tim Gunn’s Guide To Style, which debuted this season on Bravo. It it, he gives advice to fashion-challenged individuals. If you’re not familiar with his Bravo shows, you may remember him from a couple of Ugly Betty episodes he appeared in, as himself, last season.

In addition to his television credits, Gunn served Chair of Fashion Design at Parsons, The New School for Design until earlier this year. He is currently the chief creative officer for Liz Claiborne and the author of the book Tim Gunn: A Guide to Quality, Taste & Style.

The event this Saturday at Dillard’s will feature a holiday fashion show, along with giveaways, music, refreshments and prizes! Shoppers who spend at least $100 on regular-priced merchandise will be professionally photographed with Tim Gunn and receive a personalized signed copy of his new book, Tim Gunn:A Guide to Quality, Taste and Style.
