Project Runway recap
As was made clear in last week's preview, this week the Project Runway designers had to redesign the U.S. Postal Service uniforms. Before they got to work designing, however, the contestants got all suited up in the current uniforms and hit the ol' delivery route in Hoboken. Now, at first I rolled my eyes, thinking this was an America's Next Top Model-style stunt, but then I realized the outing had a purpose--for the designers to realize firsthand how dowdy and uncomfortable the uniforms are. After returning to Parsons to get down to business, Wendy spazzed out when she found that someone had drawn a mustache on her favorite photo of her daughter. As much as I dislike Wendy, I felt kind of sorry for her. Anyway, it was a rather amusing runway show: Jay's model was m.i.a., so Austin ended up modeling Jay's outfit--and he did a pretty good job, really. But anyone could've predicted what happened next: Kara Saun won (deservedly so); Jay made a stylish but slightly butch ensemble; Austin's look was cute but prissy; Robert's design was completely underwhelming; and Wendy went beyond dowdy (side pleats?!?). And while I would've given Wendy the boot, the judges finally realized Robert was all talk and little talent, and so they sent him home.
Next week, it's the final challenge (and perhaps the final episode): the designers must create a red carpet-ready look for the Grammys. Also, New York Fashion Week begins this weekend, so I'm assuming the Project Runway show is sometime next week...and thus we'll know the winner sometime next week. My money's on Kara Saun. Anyone else?
