Tim Gunn sparks laughter on stage with Sarah Kortemeier and other moderators at the Poetry of Fashion event in Centennial Hall on Oct. 11. When asked about his least favorite fashion trend, Gunn responded, “When did leggings become a pant?”

 Accredited fashion guru Tim Gunn presented his expertise at a student-designed fashion show in Centennial Hall on Oct. 11. The event, put on by the College of Humanities, was part of the Tucson Humanities Festival and was titled “Tim Gunn: The Poetry of Fashion.” Students from an array of departments came together to showcase their designed pieces inspired by translated poems. Tim Gunn then provided his praise and advice, and periodically answered questions from the moderators.
