I love these alternate materials challenges. Working with duct tape was extremely impressive. That poor Asian guy. He was simply too meek to succeed. Who knows what he could have done if he had been more assertive.
And I think Nina is out of touch if she thinks long gowns are out. Most girls I see on their way to the prom are in long dresses.
I would have had a hard time picking the loser but I think it would have been Patricia. Although it was very creative, It was my least favorite.
I liked all of them, with Patricia’s being at the bottom of the list. Nina seemed particularly snippy last night. I didn’t like the way she kept arguing with Zac Posen about what girls wear to their proms. Then she admitted she had never been to one. I actually thought the long dress was nice. The teens seemed to like it way more than they did the red and black number that the judges loved. Remember how the teens sort of ignored the red/black dress in the gym?
pointed out to Nina thatthe long gown was the top choice of the teens! And isn’t she supposed to be on the pulse of what kids like?
the red, black and white hounds tooth one. I just wish they had revealed how many teen votes each dress got because I have a feeling the long one got a lot.
I thought the teens chose Patricia’s outfit. The show built up the teen’s vote so much, but then they barely mentioned it, and then only once. Probably the reason none of us remembers exactly whose dress the teens chose.
The teens did choose Patricia’s outfit. I hated the winning dress and I do not care for Amanda. It was so fun to watch this challenge but I have not really warmed up to any of the designers yet, except for Daniel. Love his personality.
I was sure it was the red, black and white one but if you both say it was Patricia’s…
Anyway, I really like Daniel too, probably best of all and I was so scared they’d send him home. He seems to be a genuine, nice guy.
Anybody watch Fashion Star? I like that one too. Those contestants seem to be much more accomplished than the ones on PR but some of the stuff they create is horrible. It think it’s neat how the outfits the buyers buy is available right then and there. I don’t understand how they can do that.
but just couldn’t get into it, because it’s just too much of a stretch of the imagination for me to think of the designs as real clothing when I see the materials used to make the clothes to begin with. I still can’t find a purpose for this show, except that some probably very gifted and talented designers’ visions are giong to waste on mock clothing.
I do, however, love Fashion Star, which started this week. This show is so much better than Project Runway, IMO. As for PR, the designers certainly do deserve credit for their imagination, but I don’t think this show can compare to Fashion Star.
alternative materials episode where they used the duct tape, or, in this case, duck tape. Normally they use regular fabrics and some are quite good while others can be atrocious. Plus you are comparing amateurs on PR just starting out and trying to get noticed with professionals who have already sold their wares on Fashion Star.
I quite enjoy both shows realizing that they are apples and oranges.
like one show was all flowers; another all candy; another was, I believe, items from a grocery store, including aluminum foil. I also disagree about the designers on Fashion Star being professionals. Most of them have spent years trying to get established, with no success whatsoever.
Wow, that’d be great to see you on there. I have sewn all my life and even taught a sewing class for Singer once but I couldn’t do what they do. You have to know how to create the pattern and I haven’t a clue about that. I know some of them are self-taught but most of them have been to some kind of design school. And if someone asked me what my asthetic was, I’d have no idea.
Casey ARE you going to try again? I know many people say they’ve tried several times to get on some of the different reality shows before they finally made it. Just think, we’d have a celebrity in our group!
