Project Runway All Stars Season 2 Ep 2

So far season 2 of All Stars is kind of a bust.  I do expect it to pick up some steam when there are less and less designers, or so I hope.

Peach was out and I really don’t see why she was even back on the all-stars show.  At the beginning of the episodes, the designers and Carolyn meet up with Stefani Greenfield, CCO of the Jones group at thy Nine West showroom.  She tells the designer that they have to create an evening outfit based on the 70’s/disco era.  The designers’ pick out a shoe that is to be worn by the model in the challenge. All the shoes are platform heels or wedges in every color and pattern there is.  The winning designer will also be featured in the fall Nine West ad with their design. 

Wendy’s design… lord those pants.

Wendy and Josh start dancing. Shit was fun nay

When the designers get back to the hotel, they have a special video message from Karl Lagerfeld.  It was cute.

Special guest judge is creative director of Nine West Handbags, Rafe Totengco.

Wendy’s design looked like Jamie Lee Curtis in Trading Places.

Ivy, Uli, Casanova are in the top but Uli is the only that they really liked.

Wendy, Andre and Kanye are in the bottom.

The winner of the challenge is Uli! 

The designer that goes home is Wendy.

OOTD: UnBirthday

Sometime last month I turned 35.  I should have been celebrating and I really tried to but for reasons beyond my control, I really couldn’t.    My lovely friend, the French wanted to take me out to lunch for my birthday and who am I to say no?

Sweater: Lane Bryant/ Tunic: Macy's/ Leggings: Macy's (I think)/ Sneaker Wedges: JcPenney

I dont understand why the shoes look so blurry...

Closeup of the shoes... Photobombed by CoCo.

I don’t even want to mention the name of the place because we had some horrible service and I pretty much never want to go back there again.  We had to complain to a manager he refunded us for everything.

Maybe I’ll celebrate in November. 

Project Runway All Stars Season 2, Episode 1

Are you excited as I am about the second season of Project Runway All Stars? (I know im late with this post....)  After a very disappointing season ten of Project Runway, previous designers are coming back to prove once and for all that they are the best designer.   The cast includes:

Wendy Pepper (Season 1)

Andrae Gonzalo (Season 2)

Kayne Gillaspie (Season 3)

Uli Herzner (Season 3)

Suede Baum (Season 5)

Althea Harper (Season 6)

Emilio Sosa (Season 7)

Peach Carr (Season 8)

Ivy Higa (Season 8)

Casanova (Season 8)

Anthony Ryan Auld (Season 9)

Laura Kathleen Planck (Season 9)

Joshua McKinley (Season 9)

Oh Project Runway, you had me at Wendy Pepper and trust and believe she is still a bitch.  Supermodel Carolyn Murphy is replacing the boring Angela Lindvall as host.  Thank you sweet baby Jesus.

Carolyn comes out and explains the rules and the prizes to the designers.  The winner gets to go to every fashion week in every city around the world… SwEET!  The total amount of prizes is over a quarter million dollars.

The designers go to meet Joanna Cole and they find out that the first challenge is a group challenge.  Wendy was picked last. AWESOMENESS.  The theme of the challenge is attitude.  The designers will have to create a piece that has to deal with an attitude and it has to be cohesive with everyone else’s designs.  Oh the clashing of the personalities.

Casanova has taken some English lessons?  You can actually understand him.

Isaac Mizrahi and Georgina Chapman (Co-founder of Marchesa) are back as judges and the guest judges are Rachel Roy and Project Runway All Star season 1 winner, Mondo Guerra.

Team Bold, I am not impressed by your designs.

Joshua wants to be Tom Ford.

 I like Team Confidant’s choice of leather and lace.

Team Confidant is the winner of the two.

Casanova, Ivy and Anthony Ryan are in the top three.

Peach, Suede and Andre are in the bottom.

Anthony Ryan is the winner of the challenge.  The designer that goes home is Peach.  Her design was all over the place and was just a mess.
