Project Runway 1/30/20--"Sheer Genius" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: a collab with artist Ashley Longshore, where everyone had a print inspired by Ashley's works. So I guess this was instead of the “make your own print” challenge. Dayoung was still not well. Brittany used her pre-existing love of Ashley to make a weird Frankendress and win (it worked, trust me). Marquise messed up his blouse so he was sent home.

Project Runway 1/23/20--"Project Runway X Ashley Longshore" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: the designers were told to make whatever they wanted, inspired by their own background and heritage. Also everyone got phone calls from family members. Most of the drama was about Sergio, who wanted to honor immigrants (sure) by embroidering the names of the six children who have died at the US border on his gown (umm...not his heritage?). He ended up in the bottom, because his dress wasn't very good and I don't think the judges bought that he was moved to tears about it. Chelsey won, by making a letterman's jacket. Dayoung was a close second, for a lovely silk jacket. While Sergio was in the bottom, and Delvin flailed because he was given too much choice, Shavi's dress was a lumpy mess and he was sent home.

Project Runway 1/16/20--"There Is Only One You" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: the designers were told to work in teams to make collections “inspired by Cyndi Lauper's iconic 80's style. A mix of punk and pop.” The winning team did a better job, I guess, but they only did punk and did all black and I don't think that fits the challenge. Also, Geoffrey told everyone (including judges) that Cyndi had changed his life and then he won. Too many years of producer manipulation make me very suspicious of this. I don't think his look was terrible, but it was all black. The other team used stripes, which was deemed terrible, and then Melanie was sent home. If you are going “Wait there was a Melanie?” then you can see why. I know no one agrees with me about the failure of the challenge last week so I'm going to try to get over it. (click for more)

Project Runway 1/9/20--"She's Sew Unusual" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: the designers were told to design an outfit for Karlie to wear to a fashion event in Paris. The catch was they could only use clothes from Goodwill. So there was a lot of cutting up clothes and making shirts from jeans and so forth. Victoria made the same pointy-shouldered wrap jacket with side cutouts that she's made every episode and she finally won. Tyler made a boring outfit and then got shady about how Karlie is married to a Kushner so he was eliminated. (click for more)

Project Runway 1/2/20--"The Ultimate Upcycle" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: we pretended it was actually Christmas time when they filmed and had the unconventional materials challenge! Make a garment out of all these decorations and whatnot. Sergio, for all his annoying cockiness, made a beautiful bell skirt out of wrapping paper and a basket, with bells inside. I don't like Sergio but he did make an amazing dress and won so I'm not that mad about it. Alan did some whack-ass nonsense so he was eliminated. I'm sad because he was entertaining, but his designs weren't that great. (click for more)
