Darlings, we had an opportunity to attend the launch party for Tim's new show at the SoHo Grand last night, but since we're still unpacking (and hanging mirrors and painting trim and debating furniture arrangements and wondering why we have so many baskets and so on) we regretfully had to decline. But fret not, for we had a certain someone on the inside do our dirty work for us and they sent us these pics for your enjoyment.
The man of the hour.
Our spy tells us that Tim spent over an hour talking to the press.
Tim getting his groove on to Natasha Bedingfield.
The Bravo Posse, representing.
Marsha Tonkins, Tim's assistant. She's worked with Tim Gunn for 12 years, following him to Liz Claiborne from Parson's.
Tim with professional starfucker, Michael Musto.
Tim Gunn's biggest fan, CEO of Liz Claiborne, Bill McComb.
Tim: "Bill is a genius and a visionary."
Laura Bennett and Emmett McCarthy give Tim a group hug.
Kara Janx with husband Red and "Bump."
Jeffrey looks good. Our spy tells us that he did NOT throw a drink in Laura's face or get in a hair-pulling match with her, but we'll let you in on any further details as they become available.
You gotta give Project Runway props for one thing: they did manage to find and spotlight some truly unique characters.

UPDATE:
The Dish has more Tim Gunn party photos.

Fabulous! Tim looks so happy!!
Great post, Boys! Tim IS the man of the hour. Everybody looks fabulous, except Kara and her husband. Seriously, now, what are they WEARING?
i don't ever want that image of malan & austin out of my mind. two great tastes that taste great together.
you boys must have been overwhelmed not to attend the party! hang in there :)
love the photos. malan & austin just make me smile.
YAY!!
Tim is the man of EVERY hour!
Did anyone else see episode 102 play last night?? Anyone?
Is Kara wearing Philip Lim?
It's nice to see everyone supporting Tim, including the PR designers.
WAAAAAHH GIVE ME MY DAMN BRAVO!! I hate college cable....::cries::
I love that picture of Laura, Tim, and Emmett. They looks fabulous!
"Marsha Tonkins, Tim's assistant. She's worked with Tim Gunn for 12 years, following him to Liz Claiborne from Parson's."
Aww, how sweet! Isn't Tim the best?
I have been thinking about Austin lately, given that my TiVo grabbed all of Season 1. So glad to see him, and with the equally fabulous Malan!
Watched the "sneak preview" last night after Top Chef. This is going to be a good show, I think. Tim is so empathetic!
I CANNOT BELIEVE that you missed Tim's party to unpack? Sweeties, if you're anything like the rest of us, you'll be unpacking for months. Parties like this only happen once in a while. Where are your priorities? We depend on you!
That being said, glad the party went well. Everyone looks fabulous! Thanks for sharing the photos!
i saw the "sneak preview" last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. My fav moment was Tim trying to be diplomatic and Veronica Webb just matter of factly saying "You look like a slut."
I love Tim and now I love her.
I agree, Ms. Webb gives the bitchy side of things so Tim can tactfully lay out the problem.
Unfortunately, the woman who was the episode's subject still has a problem with HUGE bags under the eyes, and may need some makeup assistance in covering those. Otherwise 1000% improvement over the "white trash tramp" look. And the little girl in the matching Bill Blass dress was cute
"You gotta give Project Runway props for one thing: they did manage to find and spotlight some truly unique characters."
I agree 100%. Those two are from another planet. I love them!
Jeffrey looks adorable there, bad western plaid shirt and all. (He looks so much better sans mohawk and not flipping anyone off.)
I miss Austin! He is fabulous!
I would have officially handed over my first born to have attended that party, boys!! You declined So. That. You. Could. Unpack. Next time please let me be the spy. Pleasepleasepleasepleeeeeease!!!!!
And as much as my dream job would be assistant to the Gunn- I would never make it out of the house in the morning because I'd be too freaked out about my proportion!!!
Theodora: i don't ever want that image of malan & austin out of my mind. two great tastes that taste great together.
OMG. I have to stop laughing by the time I get to work.
That Liz Claiborne guy is uberscary!
Malan & Austin: lovethem!
The Michael Musto crack made me laugh out loud!

Great pictures! Thank you, boys!
Laura just gets better and better! Love her!
OMG!!!111
Malan Breton from Taiwan with Austin Scarlett in the same room. As Austin herself says in the show intro: "Oh MY!.
I'll give Kara a break on the dress. It probably looked fab from the front, but the side view reminded me of an old bedspread of my stolid, staid parents. After all, this is Kara's first attempt at baby bump design; Laura's the shizzle in that department, especially for cocktail events such as these.
Awesome to see Tim's "backbone." I've done that and to stay with someone for 12 years is a rarity.
Everyone, as always, faboo.
Laura looks absolutely fabulous! But of course, what else can we expect?
laura is too fabulous for words.
the dress would have been glamorous enough, but to add the gloves? how utterly divine.
i want to be laura for a day (but without the annoying children).

Laura looks fabulous. I love the gloves and the diamonds.
Okay, on Michael Kors it annoyed me, but for the CEO of freakin' Liz Claiborne, there's just no excuse. WHY IS THAT GUY ORANGE?!?! WTF?
If I was rich as shit, you can bet I wouldn't be orange. Money is wasted on the rich. And he looks even ORANGER standing next to Tim, you'd think people would be careful.

Laura's dress is so boring and what is with the elbow length gloves?
Are Malan & Austin going out? They make such a beautiful couple!!! FABULOUS!!!
Jeffrey looks cute. I like his hair a little longer this way.
