TV! Project Runway



Did you hear? Project Runway is back! There are seventy-six designtestants at this point, and I have no idea who any of them are. The challenge went like this: You just arrived in New York. You have to take a piece of clothing belonging to one of your competitors, and make a new garment out of it. Aaaaaaaaaaaand, you have five hours to complete this task, while fitting a model you have never met.
GO!
Some girl won, and some other girl with dreadlocks was sent home. Ah, but I had to show you the dress above, because it is a tribute to all that I love about Project Runway. It was made by "soon to be a reality TV star" Casanova (yes, with one S). He is Latino, he is wacky, and he didn't get booted for showing this dress. Michael Kors called it a garment suitable for a "pole dancer from Dubai." I don't know what that means exactly, but it's fab. Nina. . . Miss Nina was so offended and intrigued that she deemed it "fascinatingly bad." Ah, this made me happy. I didn't even get upset that he didn't get eliminated. Casanova is Project Runway Gold! This dress looks like I made it from my kitchen sheers, using Gorilla Glue! It's strange and badly made and not in any way flattering. Isn't it great?!
This is such a relief after watching Work of Art, I'll tell you. I don't have to wonder if I'm just not art-savvy enough to get it. This dress sucks! Yay!
Next week, they do some other challenge involving designing clothes. Stay tuned for in depth coverage from MAB.

  1. Oh my, what they get away with.

    I haven't watched the show, so I count on my updates from you :)

    I always think I could do a better job, (ok, so I know, He! He!)

    And Miles on Work of Art getting REALLY annoying!

    Have a great evening, T. :)
