Project Runway Season 7 Finale

What seemed for some reason like a never-ending season, it has finally come to a close. All of the designers I really liked (Jesse, Amy, Jonathan) were sent packing weeks ago.  So who did we end up with?
Mila, the woman who has driven me crazy all season as she recreates the same color-blocked geometric look [...]

Project Runway Ep. 12 – “The Big, Top Designers”

We’re almost there folks.  After this, only the 2 episode finale remains. So that means two designers will be auf-d tonight.  Often, this doesn’t truly happen on PR and we have some fourth person tie-in. Let’s see what we’re in for.
The designers head off to the circus this week! They are to create a runway [...]

Project Runway Ep. 10 “Hey, That’s My Fabric!”

So we’re down to seven and super close to Bryant Park.  After last week’s interesting team challenge, I am sure the designers are looking forward to working by themselves.  I am genuinely surprised a couple of these people are still in the competition, and likewise surprised that some people aren’t.
This week the challenge may just [...]

Project Runway Ep.9 – “Takin’ It to The Streets”

And then there were eight. The contestants totally fear the even numbers. This week their fear is appropriate because it’s a Team Challenge. The designs are to be inspired by four different locales in NYC: Upper East Side, Chinatown, Harlem, and the East Village. Ooohh I am already so curious. I have high hopes for [...]

Project Runway Ep. 8 – “The Elements of Fashion”

I don’t know why but I feel like this season is going very slow. Maybe because I don’t have one designer I really, really love. At this point, after Jesse’s elimination, my top 3 is Jay, Amy, and Jonathan. I’m pretty confident in this but I can’t help but think they are going to keep [...]

Project Runway Ep. 7 – “Hard Wear”

So after a week away we are a back with a new episode of Project Runway. Just from the episode title “Hard Wear”, I know where we’re headed this week. To the hardware store. I am wondering what came first: the design challenge or the punny title. My vote is on the title. Those people [...]

Project Runway Ep.6 – “A Little Bit of Fashion”

As we saw in last week’s preview, this week is about children’s fashion.  So eleven adorable little girls (ages 5 through 9) come out on stage and announce which designers they are working with.  I can legitimately see fear in some of the designers’ faces.  Uh oh.

Challenge: Create an age-appropriate, fashionable children’s look with $50.  [...]

Project Runway Ep.5 – “Run for Cover”

“Life isn’t fair, so why the hell should Project Runway be?” (Ala Anthony)
Okay, here we go. Heidi tells us this week is about being “picture perfect”.  The designers gather and go to the Marie Claire building, where editor-in-chief Joanna Coles joins them.  The challenge is to (in one day, with $150) design an outfit for [...]

Project Runway Ep. 4 – “Heart to Heart”

Let me start off by saying that as of this far in the season, I found all the designers to be rather talented, while the judges were way too nice, especially in comparison to last season. Even if I may not be ohsomadlyinlove with that many looks, I can appreciate the design elements and personal [...]
