gatsbyswidow:everythingsbetterwithbisexuals:nokki1:cypheroftyr:tiny-vessels:achubbycupcake:Tim Gunn on Plus Size Clothing“Have you seen most of the plus-size sections out there? It’s horrifying. Whoever’s designing for plus-size doesn’t get it. The entire garment needs to be reconceived. You can’t just take a size 8 and make it larger. In my travels, I’ve been an advocate for larger women. I’ve been talking to designers, but only a half-dozen make an effort. Most say, ‘I don’t want a woman who’s a size 10 or 11 wearing my clothes.’ Well, shame on you! It’s not realisticLove him.“You can’t just take a size 8 and make it larger.”Praise Jesus and all the saints for him saying this because damn, most “PLUS SIZED” clothing is fugly.Amen. The plus sized clothing out there is crazy and makes me just…I’m not surprised he said this. Ever since the first season, when they’ve had to do garments for everyday people who aren’t models, there’s always one designer (at the very least) who flips out as though they’ve never in their life considered that people who aren’t a size 0 might wear their clothes. Tim always looks at them like he wants to drown them in a lake.I love Tim Gunn so much and this is just one of the reasons. The other is that he is asexual and has copped a lot of flack for it in the media but he isn’t ashamed of what he is/is completely happy with who is. Next to Diane Von Furstenberg, he is one of my favourite people in the fashion industry. -- source link
