Project Runway 10-22-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers created a look inspired by the bridges of New York incorporating 3-D printed detailing.

Challenge: The designers were flown to LA where the city served as their inspiration for a red carpet look.


Thoughts In The Workroom: L.A has a Mood puppy! So cute. Ashley's fabric is very pretty. Edmond's fabric is gorgeous as well. Edmond No! Don't shorten! I hope Kelly's pants fit...

Guest Judge: Christian Siriano

Ashely: Boobs! Ashley picked a beautiful gold sequin fabric. However, the dress was not my favorite this week. Ashley's dress was floor length with a-symmetrical sleeves. On one arm, she had a long sleeve. The other arm, she had a spaghetti strap. The chest had a huge cut out between the sleeves that plunged down to her waist. The neckline was not flattering in my opinion. The judges were split on this look. Some of them thought that fabric was dated while others liked it. Heidi actually liked the very open chest because the rest of the model was covered.
Heidi asked:Who would you take with you to fashion week? 
Ashley Answered: Kelly and Edmond

Candice: Candice had a WOW moment. Candice had a vision in Mood, and she executed it to perfection. She made a tight black dress with a sparkling netting in the back and above the chest line. This dress was timeless. It fit perfectly and could have been on any red carpet. Candice really brought her A-game this week. She married the challenge with her personal style perfectly. Candice took the judges previous comments to heart and they appreciated it. The judges thought that the look accomplished her goal of showing her sophisticated side. However, they thought that the dress would look fine on the carpet, but not stand out.
Heidi asked: Who would you take with you to fashion week? 
Candice Answered:Kelly and Edmond

Edmond: Edmond chose a beautiful red and blue sequin fabric. The fabric was very red carpet...but his dress was not his best. The dress was a miniskirt with a V-neck, big bat sleeves with slits and an open back . I was really expecting a WOW moment from Edmond this week. However, I just do not feel like this dress was right for the challenge. I liked it so much better before he cut it when it was a simple, wide tank sleeve long dress with a V-neck. The judges did not love this look. They thought that this look would be photographed on the red carpet for its fabric. However, they did not think that it would be on the best dressed list.
Heidi asked: Who would you take with you to fashion week? 
Edmond Answered: Ashley and Kelly

Kelly: Kelly made a very cute look, as per usual. Following advise from Tim, she decided to make a jumper instead of a gown. She created her own textile by sewing white triangles onto a gold shimmery fabric and then sewing a blue mesh on top. Taking a risk and making her own fabric paid off this week. Her look was a halter top with a triangle cut out in the stomach and a high wasted pant. She trimmed the look with a silver trimming. This outfit fit like a glove and was was just so original and so Kelly. Tim was right to advise her against a gown. The judges really liked this look and applauded Kelly for coming into her own throughout the season. Fashion week, here comes Kelly.
Heidi asked: Who would you take with you to fashion week? 
Kelly Answered: Edmond and Candice

Two more weeks until fashion week! Check back next week for another recap review!

    1. Thank you for your comment. I try to keep my posts spoiler free. However, considering the ending this week, I will say that Edmond was auf'ed. However, they did not show Tim sending him to the workroom to clean up his space (Correct me if I am wrong, but I do not think that has ever happened on the show before). Is there a Tim Gunn save coming into play? We will find out next week, but I would deff say that it is a possibility.

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 wh...

Is The Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment Worth the Hype?

 Hey Fashionista's! Today we are going to talk all about Hailey Bieber's Rhode Skincare line. This is not sponsored, I just really wanted to talk about these products. This semester in my public speaking class, I taught a unit all about persuasive speaking. My goal was to make the topic of persuasive speaking more relatable by showing how prevalent it is in our modern world. What was the product I brought in to show the power of persuasive speaking in the "influencer era"? You bet it was the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment. If you are a longtime reader, you know I rarely talk about skin care. Actually, I have probably never talked about skin care. That's because I don't really know what to say. I don't ever buy the trendy products because I am allergic to so many of them and if not, they make me break out. BUT Hailey Bieber got me- talk about effective persuasive speaking. I watched a few videos on YouTube of her using the products and talking about their ing...

Best Sustainable Brands of 2023

 Hey Fashionistas! Recently, I have been trying to make better fashion/beauty choices for the environment so I thought I would share some of my favorites with you. None of this is sponsored (although, if you're one of the brands I mentioned- hi and please feel free to reach out). Garnier: I wanted to start out with Garnier because they are not only an environmentally friendly brand but they are also my favorite beauty brand of all time. Garnier is a holy grail for me. I discovered this brand when they were featured on Project Runway many years ago and they completely changed my confidence. I use so many of their products on my hair: Mouse, Curl Cream, Hair Spray, Hair Gel, Shampoo, Conditioner, Conditioning Masks, etc.  Recently, I have switched from the traditional shampoo bottle to the shampoo bar and I am so glad that I did. I still get that Garnier glow to my hair while using less unnecessary plastics. Other Garner Fructis shampoo and conditioner bottles are made partly fr...
