LOS ANGELES, Oct 1 — “Project Runway” host Tim Gunn is not afraid to admit he isn’t a fan of Anna Wintour likening the Vogue editor to Medusa herself.
In what could be described as the ultimate fashion feud, Gunn revealed that his rocky relationship with Wintour is still very much alive in a new interview on the “Meredith Viera Show”.
“I will say when people misbehave around me, I call them out for their bad behaviour,” the outspoken TV personality revealed, admitting he’s had several run-ins with the fashionista.
“I was asked by the New York Post... ‘What is the most unforgettable moment you’ve ever seen in fashion?’” said Gunn. “[I had a] very matter of fact response and it was, ‘Watching Anna Wintour being carried down five flights of stairs from a fashion show.’ Her office called my office the next day and demanded a retraction and I said, ‘But it’s true, it happened.’ I mean I didn’t make this up and they still demanded a retraction and I said no.”
Gunn insisted his comments were not meant to be an insult, “She’s a history revisionist, in her mind it never happened basically.”
He went on to say his current relationship with Wintour is “hostile” before blasting Vogue as a publication.
“May I say this though, there is so much that happens at that unique publication that is so of another world and another planet. I’m happy to have a bad relationship with it because I wouldn’t want to have a good one.”
