I love Project Runway and wish it was a weekly show (although it almost is!). I watch the shows reruns over and over because I always notice something I missed the first time around.
I miss Heidi, Nina, Tom and the other regulars but I think we needed new judges for a different viewpoint. I like Sweet Pea and Elisa and I think they were invited back for their personalities.
I would like to see at least three episodes where no one is eliminated. How about a point system awarded so that the ones with the least points are eliminated. That way we could enjoy at least three episodes of the lower rated designers that we may have liked.
Don't forget that some of the designers that were not asked to be on All Stars have businesses and families like Laura who I notice does some other fashion shows. Or Wendy Pepper who has a business in Virginia. I am sure people had to go back to jobs; not all were free lancers or unemployed. Anthony is so cool and his designs are very good. He is too classic and classy as is Rami who has an edge and talent too.
I hate some of the 'junk' that wins at times. Don't forget these clothes are not for the average person in the form they are shown.

WOW! Looks like a designer purse. I am impressed.

HEY! I love Project Runway and just live to see the next episode. Michael Kors, Nina Garcia and Heidi Klum make the show. That is what they are there for...to judge and criticize. I especially like the older episodes where Nina is showing her thigh flab and cellulite as she sits high up on the stool in her short skirt with her legs crossed. She noticed it because she toned up a bit and got a tan in later episodes. I now have a soft spot in my heart for Michael Kors who had his-look-alike mother on. Soo cute~~
Heidi is just the most gorgeous person I have ever seen. Although her calves and knees look very large and thick at times. Too bad she got those tattoos.
I think it is entirely appropriate to have celebrities as guest judges. They wear designer clothes in movies, on TV, at award shows and in gossip mags etc. Many of them are very savvy about fashion. The big bomb was Jessica Simpson. She was so porky that her cheeks almost covered her eyes! She was not very interesting or expressive.
Vera Wang's clothes are just as Cammillapoof says...I bought a nightgown and after I washed and dried it...on to the trash. I hated the feel of it and it was ruined. Her fabrics are something I would never wear. I do have ONE soft cotton top of hers but they are few and and far between. I have not yet become attached to any of the people on the new episode. I do like Bert because he is older like me and has a history of quite a career behind him.

I did like Natalie Portman's dress. Who can resist pink and red and a rose? It hung beautifully. Too cliche but I still liked it. Scarlett Johansson's dress looked gorgeous with her skin even though they were almost the same color. All floaty and feminine. Her hair looked so good on her and played up her features. Katherine Zeta Jones' dress was too heavy but still elegant and looked beautiful on her. Helena Bonham Carter was fun and very pretty in a promish way. Her face and hair helped to make it a good look. The two BIG stars...Angelina Jolie and Nicole Kidman were tasteful and subdued but beautiful still. Julienne Moore was a JOKE! The big pouffy sleeve that went through her necklace. Tackiest of all.

I don't think this machine should be considered a toy machine as it sews quite well and is light and easy to use. Don't be fooled just because it is "cute" doesn't mean it is a dinky toy. I found a Miss Kitty machine like the one shown at a Goodwill Store, ordered the pedal and electric cord on eBay and had a nice machine for $59. I was planning to give it to my grandaughter but I like it and decided to keep it. Her mother does not have time to teach her and I live in another city so I can't. Eventually I will give it to her but for now I like to use it for quick tasks. I have a Bernina 830 which is my main machine, an old Kenmore with the embroidery cams (it is so heavy!!) a Singer that I bought at Goodwill, a White which I bought for $7.99 when I worked out of town and needed to alter some scrubs and three sergers. I am a sewing machine junky!

I wanted Gordana to be in the final 3 and get a chance to create a collection. The other designers made fun of her and her age (I can see that). Her dress was true to the challenge. I could not believe that they judged it by the zipper alone. That was just an excuse to get her off because she is older. Remember what her background is and that explains her depressing color choices. Irina is cold and uninteresting in personality as well as clothing design. Actually I liked the last dress she did better than any of her others. I am glad to see there are no males in the final three this time. They pick guys (no offense) that are gay and design wierd clothing normal people would not wear. I thought Chloe was a good choice on a previous Project Runway. It is true that these people are not as interesting as the designers on previous seasons.
BY THE WAY I LOVE PROJECT RUNWAY AND WOULD NOT MISS IT. I WATCH THE RERUNS OVER AND OVER. I always notice something I missed. Where can you get the DVDS??
Frankly I like to check out the flabby thighs and cellulite of the judges when they are sitting on their stools in their short skirts. Being skinny is not all; being toned is. Heidi is gorgeous and I can't get enough of looking at her
