“Project Runway” host Tim Gunn appeared on CNN’s “The Joy Behar Show” and was less than kind when discussing the fashion taste of the Kardashian family.
When Behar asked Gunn about comments he had made about not being a fan of the Kardashians’ “look,” Gunn responded with a question of his own, “Oh, Joy. Who is? I mean, who is?”
Apparently not you, Tim Gunn.
Considering the ratings for “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” plus the media attention that surrounds the family — particularly Kim Kardashian — apparently, there are people who do like the family’s look.
Gunn did offer a faint hint at Kardashian fashion praise when he conceded, “It may have some sexiness to it.” But, Gunn made it clear that sexiness alone does not warrant praise. He continued his take-down, saying “I find it largely vulgar. I find that it has a cheapness and a tawdriness.”
It’s not lost on Gunn that his comments may have repercussions, as he jokingly explained to Behar, “Now I’m going to worry about the Kardashian sisters attacking me.”
Concerns of a violent retaliation aside, Gunn wasn’t finished. He explains that not only does he not approve of their fashion, he doesn’t particularly approve of their lifestyle in general, adding, “I’m not exactly a fan of how they navigate the world — to be perfectly honest.”
Perhaps the whole family was too big of a target. Gunn soon narrowed his focus to a single sister, Kim Kardashian. Again offering some faint praise as long as the most famous sister keeps perfectly still, “She’s pretty but she’s a poser. I find that when she’s static and still, she has an attractiveness. I find that when she’s moving, it all goes away for me.”
Tim Gunn began his battle with everything Kardashian back in February during New York Fashion Week. In February, Gunn commented, “I just think the Kardashians have an absence of taste and I don’t think that that should be perpetuated. I’m sorry I’m sounding like an old farty snob, but it bothers me.”
