Project Runway 10-1-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers created a look inspired by Neverland on Broadway.

Hey guys! I hope you are having a good week! I do not have much to say for today's intro, so lets just jump right into the post.

Challenge: The designers had to design an outfit that matches one of Just Fab's customer styles.  Candice won last week, so she had first pick and got to assign the other designers which style they had to design. The different styles were Trendsetter, Bombshell, Girl Next Door, Modern Classic and Femme Nouveau. The winner of this challenge has their design produced and sold by Just Fab.

Thoughts In The Workroom: I'm interested to see what Edmond does what that black and red fabric. Kelly's choice of fabric is awesome! She has really brought her "A" game these past few challenges. Swapnil needs to watch an episode of KUWTK. Ashley's jacket is very cute. I think Candice did a good job assigning the styles to the designers. Laurie! Fool me twice.

Twist: Each designer must create a label for their look and print it on a T-Shirt which they will be wearing to the Runway show.

Gust Judge: Ciara, and the Fashion Director for Just Fab

Ashley (Girl Next Door): Ashley made an Ashley classic. She made a crop top and matching full short skirt with a leather jacket. The two piece was a pink, blue and white pastel pattern and the jacket was a gold fake leather (but you would never know it). She styled it with a classy black purse and  a dainty necklace. This look was 100% girl next door. I know so many  young girls who would wear this look. This was probably my second favorite look this week. It was so cute and so girl next door, and so Just Fab.

Swapnil (Bombshell): Swapnil made a floor length cheetah print gown with a high neck and an open back. The back featured white strapping and a gold detail on the butt. He also added a white shall. You could tell that he struggled with the back. The judges were not all fans of the jacket, but I really liked it. I thought that the shall was very unique and looked great on the runway. The dress I thought looked okay from the front, and okay from the back, but the back and front did not match. It would have looked a bit more cohesive if the strapping had been in black.

Laurie (Modern Classic): Pasties 2.0? Laurie made a black halter top with an open back...but you could still see the model's pasties. She also made a tight, bright blue skirt with a slit up the back.

Merline (Femme Nouveau): Merline made an all white outfit. The shoulders featured a mesh detailing. I feel like interesting shoulders have become Merline's thing. The skirt had a lot of volume in the hip area and had an a-symmetrical hem. This outfit was not finished on the bottom.  I feel like she had the right idea, this dress just did not turn out exactly as she had hoped for.

Candice (Trendsetter)Candice has had a few very strong weeks and has deff showed herself as a strong contender this season. This week, she made a black long sleeve with a black and white knotted scarf. The judges did not love the scarf, but I thought it was cute. The shirt as a stand alone, I would totally buy. However, on the bottom, Candice made a black tiered skirt. The skirt was a bit too pirate for me. However, the sewing was very well done.

Edmond (Bombshell): Edmond made a tight red dress with strapping at the top.  Edmond completely embodied the style of bombshell. It was hot, and it was something that a lot of girls would wear. The snake skin shoes and the gold armband cuff really added to this look. Sexy, and perfect for his style and his challenge. Edmond hit the nail on the head. Comment down below if you agree, but something about Edmond and his designs remind me about Emilo from season eight (in a good way).

Kelly (Trendsetter): Kelly made a two piece pant and crop top out of two different patterns. One of the patterns she described as stain glass, and the other pattern was black and white stripes. She also made a blue furry vest. The outfit was styled with a yellow purse. The judges were very split on this look. Some of them liked it, others hated it. The critique of this look was that it was a bit junior. I loved this look! I would wear this any day. This is probably my favorite design so far this season. This look makes a statement, and I can just imagine young girls feeling very confident in this look. If Kelly keeps it up, she is absolutely going to be going to fashion week!

Okay that's it for this week's review! Tune in next week to see the designers give members of the Project Runway crew a makeover!! (P.S Such an awesome challenge!!)




Comments

  1. I'm afraid that the three main judges are getting too old and maybe too wealthy to focus on the JustFab customer. I agree that Kelly had that zeroed in. My thought was that it read too athletic, to me, which would have made it more appropriate for Kate Hudson's JustFabeletics line.

Project Runway 10-15-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers gave members of the Project Runway crew a makeover. Hey guys! Welcome to this week's Project Runway Recap Review! We are getting closer and closer to fashion week each episode and the competition is getting tight. At this point, any of the designers could go home. Last week was packed with drama...but...its a new week, and a fresh slate, so lets get started. Challenge: The five remaining designers will make an outfit inspired by the New York City bridges (Queensborough, Brooklyn, Manhattan). The designers were assigned a bridge from the black bag of doom. Each designer created a textile with a 3-D printer that they had to incorporate into their garment. This is an Avant Garde challenge. Thoughts In The Workroom:  I'm not so sure what I think about 3-D printers...comment down below and let me know what you think about them (in general, not just in fashion). Candice made a good choice not using black again this week. Designers who

The Prom Problem: Underwear (Clean)

Previously on the Prom Problem:  I talked about Bra's for Prom. All the special types that may be the best option for your dress. This Week: I thought that it would only be natural to talk about Underwear next. Underwear lines plague everyone at some point but prom is the last place that you want them to show up.Today we will be solving those nasty underwear lines.  I know that everyone has different opinions about sharing underwear secrets online because it is private I guess for some people, but honestly, I think that it is okay as long as your not doing anything inappropriate. I am just saying this to let you guys know that this post is totally clean so if your thinking "oh my gosh what is she going to show us?" Don't worry about it...you can keep reading. On that note, lets take a look at a few solutions to The Underwear Problem. Solution 1: Thongs I am going to talk about thongs first because I think that they are the most common solution for panty lines.

Special Post- Inner Beauty- The NJ Sharing Network

Hey guys! I have always intended for this blog to be totally dedicated to beauty and fashion, however, this post is going to be a bit different. Well, I mean, it does kind of fit because all the beauty on the outside does not matter if you are not a beautiful person on the inside (which I am sure that all of you are). Recently, my little sister (Linda) had a kidney transplant. She received her new kidney from an organization called the NJ Sharing Network. The NJ Sharing Network is an organization which connects donor families with recipients. I wanted to help give back to the organization that gave my little sister so much...so I created a team for their annual 5K run. My team is called Linda's Home Team. Last year, my team raised around $3000 dollars for the NJ Sharing Network. This year, we are hoping to surpass that. It would mean the world to me if you guys would follow the link below to my page and give a donation to my team. Every penny counts. I love all of my readers so m
