Tim Gunn leaves Parsons and Heads for Liz Claiborne

[gerz85]

Tim Gunn, costar of Project Runway and Design Dept. Chairman at Parsons, is leaving Parsons behind and heading for Liz Claiborne as the new chief creative officer. I am very happy for Tim, but will he be leaving Rroject Runway as well?! If he does, might as well just cancel the damn show! No one can replace him. And what can we expect from his designs?

Well, the press about this says that his new position does not preclude him from hosting a 4th season of PR. Also, he'll be overseeing LC's design team, not necessarily designing himself.

Honestly, I could care less about LC, and am uncertain what, if any, noticeable impact he may have there. I certainly don't begrudge Gunn the opportunity to cash-in on his notoriety.

Bravo tv is cancelling Queer Eye for Straight Guy and replacing it with Tim Gunn's new show (forget the name) where he basically does the same thing as Queer Guy. Now does *that* mean he won't be on PR anymore?

Queer Eye is still on? Wow...

I hope this move, and the starting of his new show, doesn't preclude him from being on PR. He is one of the few reasons I watch the show. As an aside I think the pic of Gunn on Gawker encapsulates him perfectly.

Technically, won't it still be queer eye?

Queer Gunn for the Straight Gun.

Hasn't LC been pretty successful of late?

Guess its time for him to "Carry On".

Will he "Make it work"?
