Renowned for his insightful, pop culture-filled reviews and his uncanny ability to discern a designer's inspirations, Tim joined BoF as editor-at-large in August 2015. Since then, he has brought his inimitable take on runway collections to the BoF community — now an exclusive members-only benefit for BoF Professionals.
