Captain's journal. Stardate…uh…March 6th. Point 2.
It's always a bit unsettling when LJ doesn't email comments.
I looked at the finished designs on Bravo's website last week, and had a bit of a different impression watching it all in motion.
Jillian - I liked her collection less. I think I still liked it best overall just based on it being more my taste, but it didn't really jump off the runway to me as much as in the photos.
Rami - I liked his collection more. Seeing it on film/video, you could see the detail that didn't show up on some of those photos. I did agree with the judges about the colors he chose. Really don't care for any of them.
Christian - I had about the same impression I did from the photos: I liked each of those black outfits, but they all seemed like the same outfit. Although I did like the feather thing better.
I'm not surprised Christian won, especially after Jillian's stuff didn't translate as well onscreen to me. And I'm sure they all looked different even still live.
I'm a bit surprised they didn't make them do a last-minute outfit, but also glad they didn't. That element always seemed gimmicky.
I can't believe it's over already! They should have more designers or something. I want a longer season!
ETA: Now on to Top Chef, which isn't as good as Project Runway, but can be entertaining.

I'm glad Christian won--I liked his stuff a lot better on the runway compared to what it looked like on the website. Rami's stuff was pretty but those colors...I hate teal and fushia, and *HOW* can any sane person put them in the same line-up of colors??? Also, his models had some trouble walking...not much you can do about it when you have GIANT dresses like he had, but...eh.
I wish they would stretch some of the challenges over a couple of shows, so we could see more of them actually creating the clothes--and Bravo would get twice the mileage out of nearly the same amount of money.

And you know it's going to be not on par with the rest of the collection. Why do it except for created drama? And stressing out the designers? They're already stressed enough as it is. By not having it, I think everything seemed more professional this year.

I have no idea why he chose those colors. I'm thinking most women - even most people - wouldn't necessarily choose an outfit in one of those colors. They're garish.

You'd think they'd have enough footage, wouldn't you? I'd watch.

I know! I feel like I'm stalking my own journal. Weird.

hmmm
Jillian's stuff was much better-Christian is a one note.
Re: hmmm
I wonder if he would have still won if she'd not been the guest judge. He seemed to get a definite advantage from her. (He might have - I don't really know. Just musing.)
Re: hmmm
and what is with Michael Kors-Brady bunch colors???
I have to tell you that some of their wins this year were really questionable. they let Ricky hang on too long and Victoria's prom dress won? My daughter looked at it and asked who in the hell would wear it?
