Yes we are all familiar with the Teen Vogue, DvF, People's Rev exploits on the Hills and the City, however the portrayl of the life of an intern on these MTV shows is so inaccurate and misleading that it makes my eyes want to bleed and further upsets me when people assume that as an intern, I spend my days inviting my friends to fashion week events and pouring my heart out on the shoulder of a Kelly Cutrone style figure!! Hmmmm.......I digress.
But that's why I love Project Runway and I know I was not the only one feeling a sense of loss when over a year passed without hearing Tim Gunn's 'make it work'.
This season (season 6) is teamed with a spin off showing the model's perspective of the competition because as we all know but often forget, there are two winners per season; 1 designer and 1 model.
So here are my top three favourites from episode 1:
The Winning design..and rightly so, although I do have to agree with Lindsay that less would have been more with regards to the ruffling on the beige bottom of this dress (yes that's right I am agreeing with Lindsay Lohan's fashion advice because good advice is good advice regardless of the source!)
Favourite number 2: The pleating needs a bit of help but the vision was there, so that's an 'A' for effort.
Favourite number 3: I am a little confused about the necessity of the black belt which adds an essence of immaturity that is uncalled for in a classic evening gown like this, but I still love the overall effect and contrasting lace, chiffon and satin used here.
Until next time.......
