Tim Gunn Slams Kanye’s Fashions, Bashes ‘Vulgar’ Kardashians And Their ‘Aura Of Yuck’

By Brent Furdyk.

Tim Gunn knows fashion like nobody else, and the Project Runway judge doesn’t hold back when it comes to offering his assessment of Kanye West as a fashion designer.

“I think they’re a bunch of dumb clothes,”; he said of Yeezy’s designs in an interview with HuffPost Live. “Just basic pieces. He won’t [like that comment], but let me tell you, the whole Kardashian clan doesn’t like me, so no surprise there.”;

Why don’t the Kardashians like him? Probably because he calls a spade a spade when it comes to the family’s combined fashion sense.

“There are large issues [with the Kardashians] for me, such as why? Why?”; he said. “But when it comes to fashion, I say to people all the time, “If you want guidance in fashion, just consider this: If a Kardashian is wearing it, don’t.’ I think it’s vulgar. Given the amount of public exposure that the Kardashians have to potentially be sending the message to people that you, too, can dress like this — no!”;

But what does he think of rising model Kendall Jenner? “I think absolutely nothing, to be perfectly honest,”; added Gunn. “And I’m assuming there’s a huge, perhaps million dollar-a-month publicity wagon that is pulling these girls along and creating these lives for them. I’m distrustful of it and I find it all distasteful. I shouldn’t say that she doesn’t [have ‘it’]. I don’t know her — she may be a perfectly lovely young woman. I just feel that she’s tainted by the Kardashian aura of yuck!”; Watch:
