Prabal Gurung In TIME

Recommended Posts

In the thread about paid media, we discuss various discounts we get from the print media, no doubt in an attempt to keep advertising revenues up. But, I got a really good offer from TIME magazine- 170 issues for $40, plus a cheap clock. It's already paying off, as my first issue has an interview with designer Prabal Gurung that made my day.

Not that I had ever heard of him. He is an Asian-American designer who has had a rapid rise, now showing his own label. But the interview was impressive to me not for what it says about women's fashion, but what it shows about this intelligent young man.

For example, he is asked: "Paul Ryan has caught flak for his ill-fitting shirts. How would you make him over?" Now there's a softball question! What does he do with it?

Prabal: "It's a fun question, but I'm conflicted about answering it. I wish people would pay more attention to who he is and what policies he supports."

Me too. To see the whole interview with this guy, who makes me better about the future of the country, see: http://www.time.com/...2123821,00.html

(Oops. Subscribers only. Well, it is the back page of the September 17th issue, so read it online at the grocery!)

Well, here's another story about him, including the fact that he is openly gay, and including a cute pic:
