I'll take one of each, please, and maybe two of the tinsel skirt and maxi caftan. But instead of going on and on about how much I love Mothlove, I'll let her work on the show speak for itself: Yes. After Thursday's show, I tweeted as much, so imagine my giddy surprise when Miss Jones herself tweeted me back the next day! SQUEE! Okay, I'll admit it. My dear Gretchen has received a lot of criticism lately for what I perceive is simply drama educing editing. Thus why I try to give folks on reality t.v. and I would have no say in how I was edited. It wouldn't matter how nice or funny or charming or smart I am. My number one fear while auditioning? Nope, not leaving home and Hubs for a long time. I'm sure I've mentioned it on here before, but I have auditioned for (an made it to the final rounds) of two reality t.v. I crave these two dresses like you wouldn't believe: Reality television is a tricky beast. Her pre- Project Runway line Mothlove is the bohemian dream I long for. Needless to say, I was instantly hooked! I think everyone on the show is immensely talented, and this season my favorite designer right off the bat was Portland's Gretchen Jones. I was scared that Project Runway would make me become an armchair naysayer, but at the insistence of pretty much everyone, I started watching it (yes, I give into peer pressure pretty easily!). Arun Nevader/Getty Images Mondo Guerra wasnt kidding when he spoke of the power of reality TV. I mean, who am I to sit on my couch and say things like, "You're not talented!" when in fact if designers (or singers or -insert whatever for whichever show-) have made it to that level, they are far more talented than I am and probably 99% of the folks watching them on t.v.? and when I watch shows like that I find myself becoming a complaining, negative person. I hate watching shows like American Idol because I don't think it's fun to become an armchair naysayer. You see, despite my own attempted forays into reality television, I really try to avoid watching shows that make me become a part of what I call "the culture of criticism". In fact, last season was the first season that I watched the show. You really were a ball to have around and I’ll miss your spirit.I am not a Project Runway freak. It might even make the top five worst outfits ever to walk the runway on this show. Streater - who won Project Runway season 12 back in 2013 - impressed celebrity judges with an eight-look collection inspired by the hustle and bustle of New York city. There was no way to spin this Home Wreck crapsterpiece that was the fashion equivalent of birth control. Dom Streater, a Philadelphia-based womens wear designer, was crowned the winner of Lifetime networks Project Runway All Stars Thursday night. The self-described “fairy drag mother” (hee hee) might have claimed she could “sell ice in Ice-land ,” but not this time. And so out of step with Peach’s clean, buttoned-up esthetic. (Not true, he says.) And not the one that he doesnt know how to sew, either. Hes not talking about the rumor that he dissed one of his fellow-designers to an audience invited to vote on their designs. 'On 'Project Runway,' Pepper was portrayed as a cunning strategist who formed alliances with the other contestants in an effort to win the game. Project Runway season eight finalist Michael Costello says he has no idea how the rumor started. Bed skirt? Avocado goiters? Lettuce leaves? Indefensible. Pepper eventually went on to place third, but made a return to the second season of 'Project Runway: All Stars.' Unfortunately, she passed away from cancer at the age of 53 in 2017. A designer by trade, Gretchen Jones combines business acumen with keen insights into aesthetics and strategy. There was nothing pleasing about anything in her outfit, but those green ruffles? Oh, my. I thought I just might pass out from the commotion. Then, when the final outfit slumped into view, my SSS started smoking and clanging like a jalopy on the fritz. Id love to see a winners edition of PR with all the winners or PR and PRAS including Uli, Korto, and Austin Scarlett cause clearly these people were robbed. I think in the history of Project Runway Gretchen is by far the weakest winner. As soon as I saw that odd, multi-patterned sheer fabric she’d selected to spend her 50 bucks on, my Sartorial Spidey Sense went berserk. Mondo is well liked and bankable thus his win on All Stars Season 1 and his mentorship on Under the Gunn.
