[Update: Make sure to enter Twenty York Street's First Giveaway! :D]
This was a very emotional week on Project Runway, happy and sad. The challenge was to create a print inspired by their life and then make an outfit using it. Here's what I thought of the outfit.
Mondo Guerra - Mondo's outfit was my favorite again this week. It doesn't look as good in the photo as it did on the runway, but trust me, that top is AWESOME! And the print had such a deep meaning, it got me (and everyone else) teary. So yea...loved this even if I wouldn't be brave enough for those pants!
Andy South - I was a bit disappointed with Andy this week, usually I love his stuff but this week was a flop. Hopefully next week is better. I do like his print, but I wish he had made the outfit more "him", it just seems boring to me.
Gretchen Jones - I liked the print Gretchen made but I wish she had varied the sizes a bit. The pants are also very cool! The top is a bit weird though, not sure if I like it, ha ha.
Christopher Collins - Christopher's look was nice but a bit boring. I like it, but then I don't. I can't really explain it, haha.
Michael Costello - I loved Michael's print, it was so cool and it wasn't overpowering. The shapes are a bit odd, but I like them anyway. Not a fan of the shoes though.
April Johnson - April's dress was very cool, I loved how she incorporated her print into the look and the skirt has such a fun texture going on! I also liked the asymmetrical top.
Valerie Mayen - I liked Valerie's dress but if it was in pieces. I like the skirt and the texture, but I wish she didn't add the blue slip thing under it. I also think that the top should have been solid black. But I would have liked the top with a different bottom....if that made any sense.

ReplyDeleteI love this show watch it every week, but in my country we're still a bit behind ^^
The first look is definitely the best. i love the pants! x
ReplyDeleteI like specially the first and third look! : )
ReplyDeleteI love the 1st outfit, especially those pants. :)sarahD
ReplyDeleteHI Meg,
ReplyDeleteCan you please send me that last dress? Thanks!
=)
I just posted my first ever give-away and I'd like for it to be a success somehow. Can I ask you to pretty please re-post in your blog? I'd really appreciate the help from Closet Fashionista!
big hugs!

p.s. sorry, it took me awhile to e-mail back, I've been away for too long!
I was crying watching the episode online last night...does this make me a little pathetic? I don't think so :)
ReplyDeleteI'm also glad Mondo won. I don't think Valerie should have been the one to go home. My thoughts on who to go home would be Andy or Christopher.
Who do you think will be the final 3 (I'm guessing Mondo, April, and Michael C or Gretchen!)

I'm sort of falling in love with Mondo's stuff. To my mind he hasn't really had any missteps aside from that resort wear fiasco.

You are right, that print in the first picture is AMAZING!! But I love bold prints like that :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend Dear! xo
I think my favorite look this season has been Mondo's Jackie O look. I love his mix of prints. I wish I could match pieces like his looks out of my closet, but I'm a bit afraid it will look to crazy!

I have to say, I really liked Valerie's dress. Sure it wasn't super original, but it was cute!
ReplyDeleteI saw it today on german tv. Amazing - but it was one of the first episodes so I think it isn't actually. They are doing such pretty things *_*
ReplyDeletethis show is amazing. I follow it as well as "America's next top model" and I love what they do! Mondo has been standing out from the begining of this season (at least that's what I think) and I'm really happy he's winning!! he totally is the best...
