Project Runway

[rm]

Excuse me while I have a Project Runway moment.

But I love Austin... Did we see it tonight? Did we see what he was wearing? I just adore him, in part because he might be exactly the creature I wanted to be when I was 13 -- too much Oscar Wilde will do that. Also, if I had money (which I don't) I would track him down and have that fabulous dress he did for the cotton challenge ( http://www.bravotv.com/Project_Runway/Episode_2/The_Runway/Austin.shtml#rw_top although it's a not great photo of a phenomenal dress) made for me. I so wanna have a red carpet moment in one of his dresses. Aie.

No, we're obsesed with it here. Wendy is so unlikeable it amazes me. And while reality shows play that up, she really is awful. I dislike most of her deisgns, and I think she's poor at sewing and construction. I have liked some of her concepts though and she did very well with the Banana Republic challenge. I don't think she'll ever make art, but can she make a living deisgning to the specifications of some larger entitle (like Banana Republic)? Probably.

In my opinion, Wendy's biggest problem is that she's too weak, from start to finish. That's why I think she's so whiny, why she compromises, and why she loses the coherency that she does have. She waffles and fusses and doesn't pull it together until the last second. However, when she has a strong idea that she can stick with, she does a pretty good job.
