This webisode, starring Dian Von Furstenberg (named the most powerful woman in fashion by Forbes Magazine in 2012) and Project Runway’s Tim Gunn, explain how math is important and glamorous!

Tim Gunn explains that when students ask them how to become a designer, they are “quite shocked by my answer. You can’t be a successful designer, any kind of designer, without a strong understanding of mathematics. It is a critical part of the human experience. It’s everywhere you turn in the world. And contrary to what many of you believe, it’s not something adults invented to torture you!”

I think many of you will be surprised by what these two all-stars have to say!
