Project Runway Season 3

[StyleSnob]

Think of how much differently this show would have gone if Bravo had let the public vote online or by phone!!

 

[kochie332]

that would be interesting. i wouldnt like it that way because the judges actually know what they are talking about and some viewers probably wouldnt

 

[birdofparadise]

The challenge just felt like left overs, like something that should have been done maybe on the 2nd or 3rd episode. The designers this season are strong, give them real fabric with a decent budget and better challenges, that's the best way to seperate the sheep from the goats. Vincent's dead in the water, he's not even good entertainment, the producers got that wrong. Uli should have got it, love Michael to pieces but not this week.

 

[Diorling]

No vincent said it. And secretly....I dont get it? Is that a drug reference? Someone tell me. hahah.

No. It's cause Laura is very wealthy, Vincent thinks she's a snob, she he's telling her to stick her Harry Winston jewels up her nose. I think it's from like up your nose with a rubber hose*, dear god, the sixties and seventies were unpleasant times.

Vincent, one has to wonder...What have you been sticking up your nose?

that would be interesting. i wouldnt like it that way because the judges actually know what they are talking about and some viewers probably wouldnt

Agreed.

The viewers would pick the craziest sh*t for the most part, fashionable people tend to be the minority.

*I briefly watched Laverne and Shirley...BRIEFLY until they started that stupid crap

Laura needs to put her breasts away, I really don't need to see them. And I'm not impressed when someone can only make stuff that looks exactly like everything they wear. Even her design had the plunging neckline.

I'd never heard Rachel Zoe talk, and unfortunately her contributions only added to the negative opinion I already had of her.

Allison got auf'ed because she made the model look fat. Right, because designs that enhance a person's existing natural curves are failures. The only option when flattering the female form is to make them look like a long, lean twig. Someone who is a little round (er) is absolutely not allowed to look it, ever.

Tim's description of the high school craft project could have been applied to Vincent.

Heidi's hair needed to go. Now that my friends, was unflattering.

 

[Belle Chic]

Maybe it is just me, but I think Heidi should look a little better during the run way judgings. She always looks unspectacular. It is a fashion show, shouldn't her clothes be GREAT!!!???????

I'm really unhappy about them giving Allison the Boot. But I ADORE Michael and am so happy he won again, a bit of a surprise, but still a good one. I really thought Jeffrey was going to win.

Oh yea, by the way, Vincent is nuts and I miss Bradley

I just now looked at the outfits before watching the show (I don't own a tv) and knowing the winner. I thought Robert's was the best. That dress was not only wearable but it looked like real fabric! And, I would actually suggest someone to wear it. Michael's wasn't bad but it did look a litle contrived and cheesy. I'm shocked Allison had to leave. I didn't think it was that bad, it wasn't great but I felt vincent's was faaaaar worse. Kayne's was a lot worse too. I actually liked Angela's. It reminded me of Paco Rabanne. And for the first time I liked Uli's. Laura dissapointed me, it was way too simple. In a challenge like this her amazing construction skills weren't able to show and a lot was riding on her creativity which IMO faltered. Jeffery's was disgusting. total crap. I KNOW he can do better, or maybe he was just a one shot wonder with his Cosa Nostra line. Sucks to see allison go. I would have much preffered if it was Kayne or Vincent.

 

[lukewarm]

I think that Vincent's "cashing in the 401k" and starting fresh story has much to do with his continued presence. I can't comprehend another reason why Alison was out and he managed to stay.

 

[NOE]

Yea, Vincent's comments were insane. Why did he keep saying his creation turned him on? Freaky man.

 

[Deleted member 7575]

Whoa, whoa, whoa....keep reading. Who can afford Parsons, and would go, with a risky industry.



I know they exist...I am one of them!

Not to start a tangent but I felt i should comment on this.

But regarding the intial comment, I think it's pretty odd to assume an African American man couldn't afford or wouldn't go to Parsons. The school, along with other art schools offer scholarships. Most people in general can't afford to go to parsons or come from a background that might discourage regardless of their skin color. A lot of poor people regardless of their race's expected socioeconomic backgrounds have gone on to great design schools and succesful careers (Alexander MCqueen's dad was a taxi driver, John Galliano's was an immigrant plumber). I'm not saying your point isn't valid, but it's just pointless and not very constructive in this thread.

That was my same thought exactly - he even went as far to say that "it gets me off" - I mean who says that?

Concerning Allison - I cried - not only for her but for myself because this means that I would have to watch more crazy pervert Vincent and his ugly clothes that get him off somehow!

I also felt bad for Allison's model - everyone kept saying how she was big and she had no hips - I think on Tim's Take on the Bravo website he even calls her a plus size model - what's that all about?

 

[scblonndie]

I cried too!

Glad to know I'm not alone in getting reeeaallly into this show. Ha.

I love the look of a womans curves, for myself I would want to excentuate (sp?) my curves, but not to a point that I look fat. I loved the dress on the form, and it's too bad that it didn't fit the model. If only the judges could see the tapes of everything else. They would be able to judge things better.

I'm mad. I bet if she hadn't put that bow hair-do on her model, it wouldn't have seemed as bad.

I think that if her hair had been done down, or maybe even like how Allison does her own hair, it would look alot better and maybe more flattering. But now that I think about it maybe not. I think the bow was just another step down the ladder of her demise.

If I had the willpower I would do a project runway boycott. That was the worst decision i've seen made in project runway history.

I hate this show now! I have no reason to watch it other than michael. But I watched this show for Allison and now I don't even want to think about it anymore. I though Allison was gonna win the whole thing, if not be in the top three. Vincent doesn't have any potential and they only keep him there for the drama. What good is drama if you only keep the bad designers. I wouldn't be surprised at this point if Angela and Vincent end up in the top three. The judges are stupid enough to do that.

The challenges have been boring too. They don't have any of the elegance or oomph that the challenges last season did. I didn't get to see the first season so I don't know about that.

I am just so shocked. I expected to see Kayne and Vincent in the bottom two and Vincent would go home.....

What's the point of watching this show anymore.... *Sigh*

I'm totally with you on that. Parsons isn't as diverse at the city of New York but every Fall and Spring I'm squished on those Terrible elevators with some of the most talented people from all over the world--from South Korea to Turkey, Bev Hills to Harlem with a good chunk of the school population on some sort of financial aid (for tuition pushing $30,000). But Project Runway is good at proving that innovation doesn't belong to those who could only afford to go to Parsons. Let us all take in the fact that our dear Vincent is a Parsons alum.

 

[Yellowstar09]

For some reason I think Vincent is going to make it far he is going to be like Wendy Pepper. And, being that I read somewhere that his model made it far in the competition makes me very weary. He DESERVED to go he is consistently at the bottom or near the bottom. Allison, however has never been in the bottom expect for this time and yet is eliminated. I cry foul. Vincent SUCKS and what's worse he believes that he is a great designers.

SO MAD Allison got AUf'd...if I had it in me to boycott PR3 to show my outrage I would but I am weak and love this show too much to not see it. But, PR producers will know my anger as I will write it on Andy's blog...so

thank you for responding because that's the point that I was trying to make. To assume that people are not going to fashion school because it may be to risky is just plain silly...

 

[Jacque Marcel]

I liked Allison's dress, especially the hairdo...so cute. Michael was okay but Jeffrey should have won. I also loved Robert's hooker chic cocktail dress.

 

[Orchide]

So sad and mad right now for Ali
She made an iffy outfit that was not cute yes but she has repeatedly almost won and been runner-up to the win.
Vincent has repeatedly been in the bottom two.
He is nuts and that outfit was a long shapeless muslin sheath with trash glued to it and the model couldn't walk in it and he argued back with the judges.
Wow.
Really incredulous that they cut Ali...no words right now .

 

[spiralsnowman]

I loved the dress on the form, and it's too bad that it didn't fit the model. If only the judges could see the tapes of everything else.

Me too! Vincent was talkin' about avant garde... Alison's was much more experimental, his was just like a piece of paper.

My heart is broken... The sunny spirit of the show is gone . Other than Michael (and maybe Uli), I don't feel connected w/ any of the remaining contestants.

 

[kikidior]

robert's was good. i thought it wasn't as boring as what he's been producing. michael's was good. it reminded me of one dress michael kors designed a few years ago, a dress with a gold bodice. i liked the plastic wrap. uli's was fantastic as well. jeffrey's was my favorite though. it looked amazing. laura's was adorable. i liked it.

heidi's look is so gisele-daria-kate for gloria vanderbilt. alison's wasn't that bad and vincent is an anomaly. everything that needs to be said about him staying and alison leaving has been said. i don't like the way he throws around the word art for his crap. alison's wasn't that bad. that kind of hair was done at a valentino show, at ysl (though slicked at the back), worn by melissa george in real life, and paris hilton. i felt the judges didn't give her any credit. it was one of the longest critiques i've ever heard for one person's work on the show (on a regular day). it was a bit emotional to see her go considering somebody else deserved to be kicked off. by the way, kayne seem to be quite... b*tchy, for lack of a better word. and i must admit i'm developing a little crush on jeffrey and his huge, tatooed neck. it's a bit of a turn-around. oh well.

here's the hairstyle that alison undeservedly got criticized for (getty/firstview

and at valentino couture and ysl fall '05 with the celine by michael kors dress that i was reminded of seeing michael's dress:

and heidi's look reminded me of this ad for gloria vanderbilt with kate moss, gisele and daria (simply daria werbowy
