1/6 - Project Runway 19 Show Discussion

Really sad over who went home.

Also, not thrilled about who won this week.

Luann looks phenomenal- she has been working out. The muscle tone in her legs and back was amazing. She rocked that dress.
Leah also looked lovely in her dress. She is a blonde and usually blonde women don’t look good in tan. But she looked classy and elegant.
Shannon looked good for her build. The dress accentuated her curves and minimized her problem area.
Gina was a hot mess. The materials and the design of the dress were mistakes.
The Grande Dame looked elegant and age appropriate. The dress was a little boring, trending toward mother of the bride.
Dr Wendy was a nip slip ready to happen. There are ways to design an outfit to bring out the assets without showing it all. Dr Wendy needs a degree in how to dress. Her designer was overly sensitive and needs to get tougher.

I thought this was a great episode. It helped to know the clients so well!

I have to say I think my favorite part was what Bones brought out in Shannon - and what Shannon brought out in Bones. I think if this challenge had been at the start of the season, he would have pouted and sunk himself complaining about having the spanx lady. But he showed he’s grown a lot - he did such a great job of building her confidence and making her feel beautiful.

For some reason I liked Gina’s dress. The execution left a lot to be desired but the dress had a taste level imo — I am no fashion maven so call me benighted— that I can’t say I’ve seen with Gina. Even if it was I’ll-fitting she somehow cut a more stately figure in it than I could ever have imagined her achieving. But then Gina is my least favorite — other than Emily — of the continuing housewives. Unless you count heather. — in which case all bets are off.

Thank you!  I knew about this franchise, because how can you avoid with all of those ads during PR over the years?  I was never tempted to watch it, though, and dear heavens, watching this episode of PR just reminded me of why.  Absolutely not to my taste.  And, I'm sorry, who was that woman paired with Kristina?  Hello?  Would it have hurt you to open your mouth and say, "Actually, no, I would prefer to wear a dress.  Pants are really not my thing."  She was the famous client, she had the power in that relationship. And then to watch poor Kristina crying and stand around lying by saying, "I don't what she's upset about.  It's not my fault.  I told her what I wanted."  Talk about arrogant and entitled!  I was actually proud of Kristina for having the guts to speak up about it.  Some other client said she wished she had spoken out and supported Kristina.  I wish that she had done so, too.  Now that would have been drama I would have enjoyed watching.  



Completely agreed with the losing dressing.  It looked like some sci-fi costume you would wear to a Comic-Con.  I was torn over the winning dress; Aaron did a great job.  

I like Andy Cohen too.
