Project Runway Ep1


Welcome to my Inauguration into the world of blogging…I, like many of us die hard PR fans, have very strong opinions and attachments to the designers.
Let’s talk about the familiar faces first (no photographic introduction required).
Nina Garcia, who’s always bored, you bore me. You’re an incredibly professional ROBOT with no soul.
Michael Kors, you are sweet, but resemble a pumpkin.
Heidi Klum, you are lovely and have a very nice rack. Your jewelry has been done (though perhaps not at the level of affordability QVC can provide).
The reason we all watch the show (and the much lesser Guide to Style):

You are a golden God.

Now to the crop of Designers

Carmen
You are a very manly lady, but I love a gravely voice. Your outfit was a Rockstar “I Dream of Jeannie” confection that left me nonplussed.

Chris
I love you. You are a more stylish Jay. Your dress was overdone, but I’m sure when you realize you’re not dressing drag queens you’ll tone it down.

Christian
“There’s some hand sewn crap up in here”
You will be the little man everyone loves to hate, but like Santino and Jeffrey before you, I love my bitches. Let your inner cat run wild and tear those losers to shreds with your kitty claws.
Your outfit was runway cute, street fug. Less winking and more wearability please.

Elisa
We understand. You’re a free spirit. You’re obviously talented (at least from the front). But I predict your paste eating and transcendental meditation will get in the way of your commitment to actually finishing. Still, I can’t wait to see what crazy shit you do next.

Jack
Thanks for the free show Mr. Fantastic. I mostly hate you. But I did like your dress, even though it was a little off the rack BCBG.

Jillian
I hated this dress. You are smug.

Kevin
If you have to tell me you’re straight and you have that beard…oh lord. You look like a Gotti boy. Correct yourself. Your dress was fine, but I forgot it already.

Kit
“Life is too short to have a bad outfit”
I think that you are adorable and I like your little outfits. Don’t get too beatnik on me, k? I really liked your McQueen-esque dress.

Marion
You are vanilla pudding. I didn’t even notice you were alive this ep. I just now realized you were responsible for this mess. Please stop shredding everything.

Rami
You are obviously talented, but also obvious. I hope you can do something more avant-garde in the future.

Ricky
Ricky, ricky, ricky. The Tiny Tim bit can only get you so far. I HATE your hats. You are the conductor of the Village People railroad. Your dress was well made but could’ve been off the rack Banana Republic or Betsey Johnson…trite.

Simone
Your dress was sewn by blind monkeys. You won’t be missed.

Steven
My coworker says you are a creepy albino. I think you’re adorable and shy. Keep walkin that line, brother. I thought your suit was boring for runway, but wearable. Punch it up.

Sweet P
America hasn’t really enjoyed watching the older ladies since Golden Girls. I didn’t particularly like your dress. Are you Kit’s mother?

Victorya
I like you. You’re polished and confident and very well-spoken. Keep doing what you’re doing. You took something potentially boring and punched it up perfectly with the arm straps and the flower detail.

In my fave 5 this week:
Kit
Rami
Victorya
Jack
Elisa

Nina may be souless, but that's part of her appeal! I love the judges as is, but Michael Korrs the most.

Tim is, of course, the main attraction.

I react more to the people than their outfits, but I agree about Chris. I don't like Christian one bit so far, and I hated his outfit. I quickly grew to hate Elisa and she shouldn't be around for long, but I suspect they'll keep her since they're clearly grooming her for the love-to-hate spot. I agree that Jillian was smug and annoying. I liked Kevin's dress, but the "Hello! I'm straight!" thing was seriously off-putting. (But it's a reality show; the producers could have MADE him say that, or taken it out of context... probably not though.)

I don't like Kit Pistols so far. Don't like Sweet Pea either. Rami's dress was boring. Ricky's hats were horribly annoying. Victorya seems poised to be the Ulli or Chloe of this season, making good, professional clothes throughout but not standing out, yet getting to the finale by virtue of never being eliminated. (Both of them proved they well deserved to get to the end, though.) Maybe.

I am so happy this is on again. My office is near where I saw them taping the show. I don't have a favorite yet though....
