Tim Gunn

And Tim Gunn asks, "Turn down for what?"

"We’re arch enemies. We’re sparring partners. We’re constantly spitting venom at each other."

In Kanye West's words: "She was controversial; she's controversial."

So far, the ratings for the "Project Runway" spinoff "aren’t that good," Tim Gunn admitted as he took the stage with author and curator Valerie Steele at the Brooklyn Museum Thursday evening.

Tim Gunn fans, you're about to get your dose doubled.

1. What if Justin actually IS Beyonce? That would explain so much, actually. 2. Would anyone be thrilled if Alexandria won... including Alexandria? 3. Also, can someone please remind me again why Kate's not in this finale? 4. OMG can everyone PLEASE just stop crying? Group hug?! Are you kidding me Tim Gunn???

1. Ok prediction time: How many times will Helen cry before this episode is over? 2. Is the fact that there are five finalists really a testament to the designers' talent, or to the judges' inability to make decisions? 3. Whoa why is Alexandria crying before Helen has had a chance to? That's not ok! 4. Tim's response to Bradon's description of crocuses: "I know exactly... what that is." Do ya, Tim Gunn? Do ya now?

1. Why didn't anyone tell Billy B. to clean his fingernails before that closeup mascara shot? 2. Aw how precious was it when that butterfly landed on Justin's cap? I think I need a moment. 3. How did it take Project Runway 12 seasons to get in on the nail art thing?

1. Do these women even get to keep the clothes? I.e. are their chosen dress occasions even relevant? 2. What does that say about the state of the fashion industry when Bradon refers to this as the "real person challenge?" (Rhetorical!) 3. Is Alexander surprised that Ken is acting like a "total dick" at the apartments?? 4. How is Megan the Talent Coordinator not dying of laughter over Ken screaming in that face masque? Therein lies the real talent!

1. Alexandria isn't used to designing for 'vibrant' women? Well there's a shocker... 2. What help is Tim Gunn as a mentor if he claims he hasn't got a clue what the judges are going to think about the designs? 3. Let me get this straight... being a Southern woman and a bohemian is mutually exclusive? 4. Did Ken just insult Harriet Tubman's sense of style? I do believe he did.

1. How much extra are they paying Tim Gunn this season to dress up in all these ridiculous getups? I feel weird when he's not in a suit... 2. Is anyone surprised that Ken a) is displeased with his partner and b) considers tights to be sportswear? 3. Wait so is Ken nice now? That was all it took? 4. If Heidi's opinion in this challenge is so important, shouldn't she have come into the workroom to give her critiques earlier?

South Korea's Plastic Surgery Obsession Comes to a Head at the Miss Korea Pageant: We went inside the pageant to learn about secret plastic surgery performed in bathroom stalls and the crazy intensity of competing in the pageant itself. Fashion Folk Go Back to School: Crafting the perfect back-to-school outfit is the ultimate expression of who you are (and who you'd like to be). See what clothes your favorite fashion people chose when they were budding industry powerhouses trapped in tiny seven-year-old bodies. Will Victoria's Secret Lose Its Lingerie Industry Bra-opoly?: Wave buh-bye to that tape-measuring lady and meet the new breed of lingerie startups changing the way we shop for bras.

Thanks to Project Runway, Tim Gunn kind of feels like the fashion industry's favorite uncle: Incredibly kind, not afraid to be honest with you when you need it, a cheerleader in the workroom with his famous catchphrase, "Make it work." But even Gunn knows that it's hard to "make it work" when there's so little to work with--an issue that's currently facing the plus size fashion community.

1. Ken was really pissed off by something another designer said? STOP THE PRESSES. 2. Is it wrong that I'm oddly attracted to Tim Gunn's camo suit? Sorry I'm not sorry. 3. Is anyone surprised that none of the other designers rigged Ken's zipline (successfully, anyway)? 4. Was Justin asking the others what their favorite sounds were the sweetest moment in Project Runway history? #preciousmoments

1. Why are Bradon and Alexander pretending like Sandro was anything other than the most terrible person ever? 2. Why are these challenges so effing complex? Is it so hard to pick one theme? 3. C'mon, The Great Gatsby as an inspiration? What is this, Spring 2012? 4. No way, Bradon, the vintage wallpaper store is selling vintage-looking stuff?

1. Which do you think is scarier, waking up to a very perky Heidi Klum or waking up and seeing Ken in his face mask? 2. If they really wanted to make it seem like Yoplait is playing a crucial part in this challenge, couldn't they have the designers make clothes out of yogurt containers? That seems like it would be fun. 3. How did they find so many people to happily try frozen yogurt on a cold, rainy day so early in the morning? 4. Is anyone else noticing how chic the translator is? Check out that snood. Chic.

1. Oh come on, Timothy, isn't this entire competition 'superficial?' 2. How do the designers always learn all the models' names so fast? It's impressive. 3. Why are the designers only allowed to look at pictures of their diamonds, but the models are totally trusted to wear them? Discrimination! 4. Timothy cannot be a real person. No really... Is Timothy a real person?

1. Can Tim Gunn not use a baby voice to talk to Patricia's family? 2. Didn't Patricia just say that she wasn't going to make all her own textiles? 3. Who knew Michelle's husband had such fancy facial hair? 4. Did Daniel interpret Tim's comment that he looks like a Chia Pet as a compliment?
