A Sticky Situation

What a sweet deal this week’s challenge was! (I’m determined to make as many bad puns in this blog as possible – so be prepared) Granted, it could’ve turned into quite the sticky situation (YES!) but luckily most avoided the hazards of working with food, and merely fell into the hazards of boringness.

Oh, and I love how they were able to make the Hershey’s store in Times Square look large and grandiose, because in realty, don’t be shocked when you realize that the stores is actually smaller than the signage that hangs above it… nothing like some fast cuts and quick editing to make things seem large and in-charge. Also, I don’t think it was necessarily bad that most of the designers opted to use real fabric, as opposed to edible goods. As long as there was a bit of whimsy and joy brought to the design, I think it captured the essence of the challenge. That being said however, there’s nothing like taking a risk to wake the judges up; I believe Marc Jacobs summed it up best when talking about his controversial, much-delayed, latest collection “I love that reaction of love or hate”.

Kit
Looking at just the clothing for now, and not the styling, I think that they are decent pieces, but there’s nothing too inventive about them. When everyone is using materials that are odd and unconventional, it means that the design needs to be elevated, and even though it seems like its fit well, it’s kind of just hohum to me. I do enjoy the proportions and think that she did a great job of keeping the look going too sweet (yes, another pun!), and characteristically punk-rock Kit.

Hey, Daniel. as I've said before... you were my favorite person from Project Runway last season, and I was soo sad to see you loose. But being offered that fashion job must've been pretty amazing. Well, on to the rest of the comment. I absolutely LOVED Rami's dress just as much as you did. It was absolutely adroable! It was one of those dresses that would make me happy to wear pink. (Pink is one of my least favorite colors D:) Anyway, I also loved Cristians dress (for this season, Christian is my current fave. But you'll always be my absolute favorite, from any of the seasons. :D) As you said, the texture and length was good as well as the adorable hat. I loved the entire outfit.

Anyway, I'll always love you're fashions,
and I wish you won last season!

Alway your fan,
Caitlin

Daniel!
You were my absolute favourite designer throughout all of PR, you have a great eye as well as a great talent. Most of your opinions on the outfits were spot-on, save for one. Kevin's dress...don't you think that with the shiny fabric a punch of colour would have made it overdone?
Kisses from PA! Keep up the great work!

Hey, Daniel - four seasons of Project Runway and you're still my favorite designer!

I am amazed at your fasions - classic yet modern. I am equally blown away by your sketches. I'm an aspiring knitwear designer and in the world of knitwear, a lot can depend on your sketches. Would you care to post a blog (even if it's short!) with information on how your sketches are so phenomenal? I would love to go to FIT, but with a small baby that's not feasible - in the meantime I'd love to know what books you recommend!

Hey Daniel sweetheart! As I told everyone when it was your season, your name would be the only one people remembered and right now I cannot even tell you the girls name that won that season but I will always remember you! By the way, I dug those purses you made! Where can I get one?
Much love,
Beth
