Guerra and Gunn take aim at Goodwill fashion event

December 13, 2013

Emmy Award-winning fashion guru Tim Gunn and Denver’s own Mondo Guerra will co-host Goodwill’s Fourth Annual Good Exchange Fashion Show & Clothing Swap from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Feb. 6 at the EXDO Event Center, 1399 35th St.

Gunn, co-host and mentor of Lifetime’s “Project Runway’’ – and host of the upcoming fashion competition television show “Under the Gunn” – will join Guerra, also of “Project Runway” fame, for an evening of fashion and fundraising for Goodwill Industries of Denver.

Guests will get a sneak peek at some of Denver’s up-and-coming young fashion designers during the event, which will feature  designs by students from Goodwill’s youth programs at local high schools. Area celebrities will also model clothing from Goodwill’s Déjà Blue Boutique, the high-end clothing and accessories division of Goodwill .

In addition to the unique runway show, the event will include a clothing swap. All guests are asked to bring 10 items to swap with other attendees.

“I’m thrilled to be joining Goodwill again for this incredible night,” said Guerra, who will be featured in Gunn’s new television show as a mentor to aspiring designers. “Each year, the event has grown bigger and better and I can’t wait to see how the student designers express their creativity.”
