Project Runway Season 5

[Deleted member 82231]

The fourth season was downright terrible.

This one looks better, if people haven't given up on PR due to season 4.

Like most of you, I too think the plastic cup guy should have won. I didn't like the winning garment at all.

On another note, I feel the show is relying too much on designers that make "good tv" and not on people who have actual talent. In my opinion, the second season has had the best designers and since then, I've been a bit disappointed. The third season was good but I wasn't fond of the fourth.

Where are all the Chloe's, Andrae's and Daniel's?

I agree. I was dissappointed in the first 2 mins.
Almost everyone annoys me.

I do agree the rock chick should have gone....
What was she doing picking garbage bags....
let alone the cheapest in the whole store?

^ I had two issues with her choosing the trashbags. Like you said, they were those crappy industrial ones and she just didn't have a vision.

Truth be told, one of the things I probably would've gone for would be black garbage bags, cause you could do some cool stuff with shiny plastic as a fabric and the heavy duty ones would mold pretty well to a body....she just didn't pull that off at all.

I agree with you Spike413. It would have been different if she could have proven that she had a solid idea of what she wanted to do. I think the viewers (maybe even the judges) would have been interested in seeing what went wrong between her vision and the execution. But if there's no vision, what are you doing?! Granted, I am not a designer, so I don't know how the process works mentally, but that's just my thoughts.

Holy crap Westley is so HOT!!!!!

 

[Ella Petrovsky]

No one is interesting at all. The first challenge was boring since almost everyone used cloth-like materials.

Holy crap Westley is so HOT!!!!!

It's Wesley. Worked for MJ and came on this show? Something tells me 'no'.

Wesley

23, Blackstone, Massachusetts wins: 0/0 status: Still Sewing education: Fashion Institute of Technology favorite designers: Jeanne Lanvin, Marc Jacobs, and Cristobal Balenciaga fashion must: Big old sunglasses bio: Wesley began making his own clothes in middle school and was paid by other students to do the same for them. He then went on to study at the Fashion Institute of Technology for four years. During his time there, he interned at Marc by Marc Jacobs, Marc Jacobs, and Levi Group Inc., where he was able to learn the ins and outs of the industry. He considers himself to be poised, polished and professional and his design style to be clean, classic, and sophisticated.

Neon sandals. Sandals like this scream to me 'clone'! A+F!!
Yakima, WA is the farm land. Of course he came to Seattle.

Blayne

23, Yakima, Washington wins: 0/1 status: Still Sewing education: Art Institute of Seattle favorite designers: John Galliano, Yohji Yamaoto, and Diesel fashion must: Neon anything! bio: Blayne began his fashion career right out of high school when he moved to attend the Art Institute of Seattle. Upon graduating AIS, he was approached by Seattle Seahawks' running back Shaun Alexander to design an up-and-coming athletic line. He continues to build his name by selling his creations in local boutiques and throwing fashion shows. Blayne was also named Seattle's "Most Stylish Male" by a panel of judge

I like what he wore with a belt sewn onto a very thin tee first episode. he's kind of cute too.

Jerell

28, Houston, Texas wins: 0/1 status: Still Sewing education: favorite designers: Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, and Karl Lagerfeld fashion must: Great shoes bio: With a unique eye for details, Jerrell's designs are intricate and creative. Jerrell found his passion for fashion by way of modeling. The former model admits to not being able to afford "the cool stuff" in his early career, and so he taught himself how to make what he wanted to wear. He describes himself as eclectic and bold and wants to create pieces that express people's individualities. Inspired by life, Jerrell classifies his designs as "raw beauty."

how the hell did that guy get eliminated
there were lots of other people who had ALOT worse designs
i didn't really think his was that bad..

 

[Ella Petrovsky]

Well the yellow gloves i think really turned off the judges

 

[Starry_Night]

Supposedly Wikipedia leaked the next 4 eliminations in a chart on the Project Runway Season 5 page (the chart has since been taken down). If anyone is interested, The Gawker has a screen cap of the chart. Only time will tell if the spoiler is accurate.
