The Beginning Of The End On Project Runway

by WindUpDoll We get Heidi ‘introducing’ the Fashion Week challenge. Tim comes out on the runway and tells them that he will be checking in on the contestants. They’re going to have a toast before heading off to the Fashion Week. Christian is 21 and going to Fashion Week. That’s FIERCE! Tim first visits Christian. He lives in New York, so Tim doesn’t have far to go. Tim, for some weird reason, drives. If Saturn wasn’t sponsoring the show, you know he’d be taking the subway. We get to see his apartment, which is New York cozy, and pictures of […]

Project Runway Reunion Time!

by WindUpDoll Heidi, bangs. Cut them. Can you actually see anything with those bangs? These shows always start off really sweet. The designers are all supportive & happy. Heidi & Tim ask all of the sweet & nice things. Then they bring out the designers who are showing at Fashion Week. So get ready for the bitchy. Speaking of which, Victoria had her own show at Fashion Week as well. Tim congratulates her and she’s got that look of ‘Yeah, I know. I did it on my own. Suck it.’ The finalists are introduced and brought into the group. We […]

Project Runway Is Down To The Final 5

by WindUpDoll If you haven’t heard, all 5 of the contestants now on Runway all got to show a collection at Bryant Park. So don’t feel too sorry for anyone who gets booted at this point. According to reports, the audience felt that there was a clear winner. It’ll be interesting to see if the audience’s idea of the winner was actually one of the eligible contestants, and not one of the two decoys. Only time will tell on that one. If you haven’t seen the collections, you can check them out here. These models have had the easiest ride […]

Project Runway Decides To Work For Once

by WindUpDoll Thank you Bravo for repeating Project Runway ad nauseam. Because of you, I got to see Victorya sack-dress get axed again. I’m sure she’s a nice person, but she annoyed me. This week, since Project Runway decided to do a show again, we start off with Christian dissing Ricky, who gives himself a motivational speech. Heidi is in a patterned gold dress that actually makes her look poochie. Bad choice, Heidi. We also see Jillian’s black bra when they shoot the designers from behind. Nice. Heidi once again ducks actually telling them what to do. Tim comes into […]

A Project Runway Field Trip!

by WindUpDoll Project Runway always starts with the longest episode recaps ever. It’s great to get your bearings and make sure you’ve got a glass of water or a beer, but it sure is a lot of screen time for something we’ve already seen. We’ve only got one hour people, give me something new. Sweet P is missing Kit, and others in the apartment keep calling her Kit, which doesn’t help. Ricky is feeling inadequate, but he doesn’t cry. We fly through the model selection, thankfully. Heidi once again ducks actually telling contestants what they’re doing and leaves that to […]

Project Runway: On Garde! Recap

by WindUpDoll Ooh! Group project! But first, we need to bitch about the last challenge. Of course, Christian is bitching about his client. Model selection is a little different — they all come out with wacky hair and the designers have to use their wacky hair as inspiration for their garment. Oh, and of course Ricky is the last person to select a model again, getting him all misty. I don’t think he has a full-on cry though, so it doesn’t count in the Ricky Cry Count. These garments are meant to be avant garde and therefore challenging, so they’ve […]

OMG! I Think Project Runway Just Asked Me To The Prom! Squeal!

Again, the models of Project Runway have the week off. How crappy it must be to get ‘eliminated’ for a week when you didn’t actually do anything. Heidi does her usual “Good morning, designers” spiel and instead of the usual models coming onto the runway, a group of gawky teenagers in uniforms come trudging out. Heidi explains that the designers will be working with these teenagers to create their prom dresses. Christian is justifiably horrified at the idea. The other twist for this week is that the girls have gone through the designers’ portfolios and have selected who they will […]

Project Runway — Making S*** Out Of Candy

Finally! Project Runway has emerged from the depths of their Christmas break. Not that the designers actually TOOK a break during filming, but we can live with the delusion that Project Runway designers aren’t completely sleep deprived. We already know, due to the incessant repetition of the preview for this night’s episode, that it’s the ‘make something fabulous out of crap’ episode. I love this episode — it’s crafty, it’s creative and has the potential for pretty big meltdowns. We begin this episode ordinarily enough — designers starting their day. Kevin’s all alone in his Gotham apartment, since all of […]

Project Runway Repeats

So naturally, there will be no recap today. I didn’t watch the old episodes; instead I watched Ninja Warrior on G4. If you haven’t watched it, you don’t know what you’re missing. Happy Holidays everyone!

Project Runway: Disappointment and Surprises, All In One Day

I’m seriously ready for some drama tonight. We’ve been given a glimmer of hope that we find out what the drama is with Jack. We begin the episode with Jack discussing a sore that he thought was a zit, but by the way it’s growing, it’s definitely not a zit. Apparently he has had staph infections in the past, and he’s hoping that this is not one of them. I can’t blame him. It’s a nasty thing to have. But first, it’s model selection time. There’s this really weird shadow behind the Project Runway logo. What appears is a group […]
