Actually, Tish, I think Tim's opinion about Daniel's clothes looking like Talbot's clothes could be true. I mean, some of his line was very Talbot-ish. Landi, that's true about Zulema.

Yes, I agree that it's true. But neither Tim nor I think that is a compliment.

all i know is i loved this season more than last season. i hope that santino, nick, andrae, daniel, and chloe all do well. i think they were the most talented of the bunch. and kara had 2 pieces in her collection that i liked also, but mainly i wouldn't wear her stuff. what i really wanna know is where can i find that white coat daniel made????

Cool link Landi.. I didn't even relize they had a auction. Couldn't resist checking out all the Auctions. My gosh,I cant believe some of the prices these clothes fetched. What really cracked me up was that some one payed 205.00 for the jumpsuit Santino made for Kara.. and it comes " as is" "Santino's design modeled by Kara. Outfit was custom made to fit Kara. This is the exact design from the Project Runway show. Item is sold "as is". "

I managed to catch a marathon of Project Runway and saw the last 6 or 7 shows on Saturday. I have to say, I was really most impressed with Chloe's collection. I really liked the placement of her seams; she really works on showing off the curves of women (even though her models had a distinctive lack thereof!). Santino had a few pieces (the muted tones with pleated or flowy dresses) that really were beautiful. But he had a large proportion of items that just didn't "do it" for me. Plus, the workmanship really sucked (wasn't it one of his dresses where the lining showed by about 3"?) Daniel's clothes were a bit too "preppy" and boring for me. He, too, had a couple of pieces, but most of them just seemed to be too basic. His separates with the pants and tops would've been great for a resort wear show, but not a show in the midst of fashion week. I did think it was pretty mean of Tim (is that his name?) to be so "muted" when reviewing his line. But I guess it was underwhelming. I don't think any of the three finalists actually had a cohesive line except for Chloe. I liked how she tied all her colors together (none of the judges commented on that) and made multiple pieces using the same fabrics. That said, there were not many piece that I would buy and wear, although the pieces were, for the most part, evening wear. FWIW, I figured Chloe was 5' or under, just by the height difference between her and her top model (Grace?).

Oh yeah, Chloe's being mentored by phone? I think that is HER choice, since she doesn't wanna do the relo thing to NYC.

Yuck, Talbots. I once had a boss who was a Mary Washington graduate who shopped nowhere else. The stuff suited her to a T. Couldn't stand <her>. <79>

It is interesting--I went to the website above to view the auctions of the clothes and Santino's collection is bringing quite a bit more than the other two with Chloe's being the least expensive so far. Of course with an auction you can never tell, but it will be interesting to follow for the remaining two days.

I noticed that, too, Chieko. You can also see Santino's skirt with the lining hanging out.

I think Chloe's outfits were very fitted to the models so perhaps people think they could use or alter Santino's? Plus maybe they find it more exciting to have a "Santino". Some of Kara's brought high prices too.

Tish, check out this skirt. It was ill-fitting, and the lining showed (not completely, since it was less obvious when she turned back down the runway).

I love the fact that he speaks his mind -- and that Bravo allows him to.

Annie, that is a super interview!!
quote:If we were going to put you on a show with Zulema, Wendy Pepper, and Daniel Franco, how much would we have to pay you? Oh, Jesus. Are you trying to kill me? What’s more important to me than the money is being in Tahiti for a month afterwards to recuperate. If I could construct the whole format of the show, we would have mud-wrestling among the three of them.

Project Runway will be combined with Queer Eye for its third season Bravo is shaking things up for the third season of Project Runway. The network will merge the show with Queer Eye, and the new show will officially be called Project Runway 3: Queer Eyes. The series still be a fashion-based competition, but the Fab Five will replace Nina Garcia, Michael Kors, and Heidi Klum. Tim Gunn will remain, however, and will ride shotgun in the Fab Five’s SUV as they pretend to drive around New York City. While the contestants are creating dresses, the Fab Five will give them makeovers and interrupt their work with comments that objectify them and make them self-conscious about not being superficial enough. “After all these years of success, it’s time we started acting like a real network and things up,” Bravo’s president said in a statement. “Plus, when we looked at season two, we realized that it just wasn’t as gay as we’d like it to be. I mean, this is Bravo. Also, we still can’t get over how fast Queer Eye exploded and then crashed and burned, and rather than just give up, we’re going to wreck another show too.” One producer told reporters, “In season two, our insecurity and lack of trust in ourselves led us to use editing, voice-overs, and twists to manufacture drama. This is just the next logical step.” Asked for comment, Tim Gunn said, “We’ll make it work, people. We’ll make it work.” APRIL FOOL'S!!!!!!!! http://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/
