Oh Look: Another Well-to-Do, Trash-Talking Fashion Nazi

MySpace is pushing a promotion for Bravo’s series premier of Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style, which looks like Tim Gunn’s sad attempt to become the fashion world’s version of the UK’s Brian Sewell, who travels the world to say nasty things about everyone else’s ancient oeuvres.

We are not convinced by his “fashion therapy” approach, but maybe it’s only because he hasn’t got an accent.

If a niche authority were a piece of American real estate, his or her value could increase by at least $2-$4,000 with proper use of an accent alone. Call it the personality variant of flying buttresses or vaulted ceilings.
