Gunnar Deatherage
As a contestant on seasons 9 & 10 of Lifetime's Project Runway, Gunnar Deatherage was well known for his unique fabrication, eye for styling, and quirky whimsical aesthetic. His experience on the show came to life on one of the biggest stages in the fashion industry, the tents of the Lincoln Center, where he presented his Spring/Summer 2012 collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. Gunnar has built his namesake brand by creating innovative collections each season and showing the collections around the country in cities like Austin, Portland, Miami, New York, Dallas, Houston, and Birmingham. Gunnar's collections transport audiences to the root of the inspiration for each collection through theatrical music, distinct styling, and clothing for the "not so every day" person. Each collection encompasses a character, with fully developed stories through the clothing. Gunnar later competed on Project Runway Allstars season 4 where he showcased his talent once again on an internationally televised platform.
Gunnar's career has crossed over into multiple industries, all focused around costuming and clothing. Gunnar has recently been costuming films, and television shows, as well as working with record labels and bands to create costumes for artists and their international tours.
