Another Wednesday passes, as does another crappy Project Runway episode. Today we write about prom. Oh, prom! Do you remember your prom? I went with friends to prom, although I did get asked like 2 days before (who waits until 2 days before prom to ask someone?! Seriously.) but I turned him down because I already made plans with the girls. On to the only thing that matters for prom: the dress. I lived out all my princess dreams that day, well not all as I still want to be a princess when I grow up. Yeah, that’s right, I looked like a big, lilac cupcake on my prom night and I loved EVERY FREAKING SECOND OF IT. I’m not ashamed of my princess dress. Although, now if I had to go to prom, Betsy Johnson all the way, dude. That crazy, cartwheelin’ broad knows exactly how to make a party dress.

So if you haven’t guessed by now, the challenge was to make a prom dress for a high schooler. The girls got to pick which designer they worked with though. Victorya got picked last and the girl told her that she ended up being stuck with her. Ha! That’s what you get Victorya for being so boring and bossy. Christian seemed to have met his match when it came to his client. This bratty little girl wouldn’t shut up and Christian hated it, then tried to blame everything on her during judging. Maybe now he knows what the other designers feel like when he opens his mouth?

Oh and did Heidi not look fierce as hell with this dress on? I need this dress in my life.

Let’s get to the designers’ dresses:

It’s back! I actually didn’t even write about the last episode, because I was bored to tears with it. It seems Bravo has redeemed itself with an awesome challenge and judging. Zac Posen! That adorable little curly mopped man who makes amazing, amazing things!

Doesn’t everyone wish they could run into a huge candy store and grab everything they want in five minutes? Isn’t that everyone’s one true dream in life? Okay, I guess it’s just mine. Whatever, that was the challenge though! Tim woke everyone up bright and early and, dude, Time Gunn could wake me up any day and I would not complain, then again these designers are whiny, ungrateful wenches.. So he whisked them off to Times Square and into the Hershey’s Store. Yum! After 5 minutes the place was ransacked and they were off to Parsons.

This season is really disappointing. I really don’t understand how they can say “this is the best season yet!” and “best designers we ever had!”. I’m so bored with everyone. No one sticks out. I’m bored bored bored.

This recap is going to suck and be the most boring thing you have ever read, so I apologize in advance. It the most half ass thing I have ever wrote.

Nina presents the challenge this time and it is out of date, horrible trends. Why weren’t leggings as pants on there? I do not know, but they should have been. Anyway, everyone had to pick a bad trend, like overalls (which Jillian happened to be wearing), dance wear (I guess that could be leggings), poodle skirt, shoulder pads, zoot suit and so on. I can’t even think of the rest because it was boring. After they picked their fashion mishaps, the designers were to break off into groups of 3 to put together a collection based on their items and update them.

Teams were as follows:

Rami, Jillian and Kevin with poodle skirts, overalls and 70s something or other.

Christian, Kit and Jack with zoot soot, fringe and pleather.

Ricky, Victorya, Elisa with underwear as outerwear, cut outs and neon.

Sweet P, Chris and Steven with baggy sweaters, shoulder pads and dance wear.

(more…)

Two down. Who was next to go? Let’s find out, shall we?

In one of the guy’s apartments, or dorms, since they look way more like dorm rooms than apartments to me. They discuss how bummed the are that Marion is gone and someone pipes in saying, no one would care if Christian went home. Christian is all offended and tells everyone how bored they would be without him there. I think it would be much better with out his doucheness, but then again, that is just my humble opinion.

Blah blah. They are told by Heidi to meet Tim to find out more about their challenge, so they go to this place and see this dude and Tim. You can obviously tell like no one knows who the dude is, except for Kevin, who is oh so super manly and needs to make sure everyone knows that he is straight. It ends up being football great, Tiki Barber. I’ve never heard of him, but I’m not a fan of football. I know nothing about it. Haha, I kept asking my boyfriend questions that turned out to be stupid, when he was watching the Packers vs Cowboys game yesterday. He was like DUDE, IT’S EASY and went on to explain what is what and what happens when and I just have a blank stare on my face like OHHH OKAY. Annnnyway, back to the show, Tiki is a correspondent and needs to look good on camera, so in comes the challenge.

MENSWEAR.

They get back to the work room to sketch and all you see is this:

No one knows how to make menswear, so we have a….REAL CHALLENGE!

Everyone gets all ambitious and decide to make suits with vests, pocket squares, ties and all that stuff, of couse, it ends in CHAOS.

Top 3 and bottom 3 after the jump!

Alright, bitches, we had the second episode of Project Runway. Ready for what I have to say? No? Well here it is anyway!

Who was the guest judge this time? Who made Jack freak out like this?

I had read previously that Sarah Jessica Parker would be making an appearance this season, but I definitely did not expect it to be this soon! The first episode was severely lacking in creativity for $50,000 worth of material to design WHATEVER they wanted, so I guess they had to break out the big guns quick. Anyway, SJP has a line at Steve and Barry’s stores nationwide, called Bitten. I have been wanting to go check out this line in person since it was released, but just haven’t had the time to make it out to the nearest Steve and Barry’s. Everything is suppose to be under $20, so I am very curious about the quality of these items. I really don’t think it would be that bad, because Sarah Jessica Parker doesn’t exactly seem like the type of girl to throw her name on just anything. I kind of have a love/hate relationship with SJP. She kind of gets on my nerves, but I adore Sex and the City! Anyone else like that? BTW, Sex and the City COMPLETE series box set is on sale at Best Buy for $99 until Saturday. I’m kind of tempted to buy it but probably won’t. :[

Anyway, back to the show! The designers had to come up with a design that would work with the Bitten line, Sarah Jessica had to choose 7 designers to move forward with their designs and the remaining designers pair up with one of the chosen designers. The catch: the 2 piece outfit had to retail for less than $40. The cost of construction vs the retail cost is vastly different, so the designers were only give $15 to work with at Mood.

Sarah Jessica ends up choosing Rami, Christian, Kit, Victorya, Ricky, Elisa(!!!), and Marion.

Check out final pieces after the jump!

First off, like I said before, most of these people look like complete freaks. You’re a fashion designer for godsakes, you should have some sense of what is fashionable. Or maybe they are just immune to dressing well because they design for others? If someone could fill me in on that, I’d be incredibly thankful.

Okay, they get to raid tents at Bryant Park full of glorious fabrics, $50,000 worth to be exact, to create their very own design. I wonder what happened to all the leftover fabric, especially the one that nutty Elisa decided to rub all over the grass because she loves her clothes to be natural and full of nature….. Yeah…

Everyone is in the workroom and the fabulous Tim Gunn walks in to mentor these fashion hopefuls and what does these ungrateful, badly dressed wenches do? TALK BACK. Seriously, people. Tim Gunn knows his shit, he’s trying to help YOU out. Show some fucking respect, man. You’re lucky he doesn’t make you bow down to him when he walks in to the room. Tim is awesome and these kids are getting ballsier with every season.

Prime example: Tim’s talking, Christian looks bored as hell and girl who looks like Kelis isn’t even paying attention.

She totally does look like Kelis. Next episode, Carmen will teach everyone how she brings all the boys to the yard.

Do you?! Why it’s only the best day in television so far this season!

7PM - We have a little Tyra and all of her nonsense with those wannabe models on ANTM. All those bitches are fug, except Heather. Jenah is on top of the FUG LIST. SERIOUSLY. Close your mouth, girl.

8PM - Some Addison for you on Private Practice. I’m still not sure I like this show, but I have to watch because it’s a Grey’s Anatomy spinoff. Ridiculous, I know, right?

So one of my favorite shows ever starts back up November 14th. I’m talking about Project Runway! It feels like years since last season ended and it’s starting in just 8 days!! 8 DAYS! EIGHT! So, my lovelies, you can bet every Thursday to count on a Project Runway recap on this little old site here.  I will rip their designs to shreds tell you how fabulous everyone’s designs are and ruin some designers’ dreams predict who will will. Seriously, you are not even ready. Project Runway is serious business.

Emmett McCarthy from season 2 released his collection recently and it’s fabulous. More importantly he will be selling this:

 

Now you can have your very own talking Tim Gunn bobblehead that encourages you to, “make it work!” or tell you how “fa-bu-lous!” you look and to eventually “carry on!” with putting together that amazing outfit!

So uh, which one you are buying me one of these to put next to my full length mirror?
