Project Runway 4/18/19--"Power Play" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: luxury streetwear. Not everyone was able to handle streetwear, but for some it was their wheelhouse. Also Dapper Dan came to comment on everything. Bishme won with a cool jacket that could be personalized. Kovid made something too boring, and was finally eliminated. (click for more)

Project Runway 4/11/19--"High Fashion to High Street" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: we had this season's unconventional materials challenge out in the woods. Everyone was supposed to make “survival chic” outfits out of camping supplies and leaves. Also camping, and also the runway was outside too. Several people made high fashion looks, but not “survivor” looks. Renee made a cargo jacket and hung pouches and whatnot off it, and she really did the best at meeting “survival” so she won. Afa was eliminated, for making a weird net skirt and I think because his model was cold and the judges fixated on that fact. (click for more)

Project Runway 4/5/19--"Survive in Style" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: everyone had to make a head-to-toe look with a print. Of course some people don't use prints and kind of freaked out, but that's to be expected. Hester won, I guess because she doubted herself so she needed encouragement? I didn't mind her look, anyway. Nadine was upset she got one of the plus-sized models, then complained about her walk, then told the judges she couldn't make what she wanted because of her model. She was sent home, although she did say in her exit interview that she's not cut out for the show. And not everyone is cut out for reality television, so it's not like that's a huge failing on her part or anything. I just wish she could have made that decision and left without complaining a bunch so it seems like she hates fat people. You know? (click for more)

Project Runway delay

Sorry guys, but I'm exhausted, and I can't get a recap up tonight. It's gonna have to wait until after work. It'll get there eventually. Thanks for waiting. Clicky clicky

Project Runway 3/28/19--"All the Rage" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: the designers were divided into groups of three to design futuristic fashion to go with body modifications. Silicone prosthetics like shoulder horns and gills and whatever. Tessa got really bossy, but in the end her team's collection was cohesive, and she did give plenty of credit to her team. Especially Sebastian, who made part of her garment and his own garment. He ended up winning. Hester insisted on buying tulle (against the advice of Christian), then asked Nadine for fabric because she didn't want to use the tulle, then decided to use the tulle anyway, after cutting up all the other fabric. But the team of Renee, Kovid, and Frankie ended up on the bottom, mainly because Kovid and Frankie had unfinished looks. Frankie couldn't recover from being in the bottom twice in the first two episodes and was sent home. (click for more)

Project Runway All Stars 3/27/19--"All the World's a Runway" summary

Previously on “Project Runway All Stars”: the final four designers were asked to create three looks for a family portrait. No one complained about having to make clothes for children or for men which was nice. Anne straight up told everyone not to care about their clients, which was rude, and then she was the guest judge which I thought was suspicious. But probably someone canceled last minute and she filled in. Isaac and Georgina continued to praise Dmitry for the same techniques, as they have been doing all season, because making the same dress over and over is the sign of “a really good designer”. Then Anne said it was hard to judge because no one pleased their clients. In the end Biddell won, and then I guess they couldn't agree on who to get rid of because everyone was being irrational so no one was eliminated. (click for more)

Project Runway 3/21/19--"The Future is Here" summary

Previously on “Project Runway”: new season, new host, new judges, new workroom, new mentor. Everyone had to bring a piece from their last collection to show who they are, and then they had to be inspired by a personal photo shown to them by one of the judges. They also had to take a social media pic for public voting. AND the Scrap Bin has a TV so you can watch the judging. Renee and Vinny did well, but Tessa won with a long tunic and pants with strap and button details. Frankie tried to make a bathing suit, but she ran out of fabric and it looked a mess. However, Cavanagh completely failed at making her tweed jacket, blamed it on the model being too big, and then just sent down a black top and skirt that were super basic. And then even though Cavanagh had many bitchy confessionals and seemed poised to be the villain of the season, she was sent home for being boring! And they saved Frankie who is a sweetheart! Guys remember when this show was good? I think we might be back there again. (click for more)
