Truthfully...anyone who has the talent to pull off finishing a design in such a short time span gets my vote as awesome...but...

I guess I just don't "get it" with some of the designers work...pom poms in unattractive places, large shapes on just one side...maybe I'm "out of it", but I'd never wear, let alone purchase, many of these ideas. But, I guess, the designers are pursuing "design", not retail-worthy clothing.

I'm SO HAPPY that the show is back, tho!

OMG! I'm SOOOO happy this worked for someone!!! My 14 yr old daughter "taped" me up when I tried it a couple of months ago...needless to say - MASSIVE FAILURE!! But, oh did we laugh...it will be a memory that will be passed down to all my future grandchildren, I'm sure.

Taping went well (I thought). We followed the directions as thoroughly as we could and went thru about 8 rolls of duct tape. I couldn't even walk around after she was done, so she pulled out her cell phone and started taking pictures of her helpless (and mad!) mom and sending them to everybody. She abandoned my helpless self and then ran to her laptop, transferring the pictures to her email, then proceeded to "copy" everyone we knew with a picture...while I screamed helplessly and tried to take a step or two - basically I was a prisoner to her evil plan.

Needless to say, when she finally had her fun, the "cutting down the center back" step involved many Hello Kitty band aids and much (well, a little) blood, with my behind taking the brunt of the abuse. We now have a useless, duct taped "form" (when we stuffed it, it was in no way shaped to my size in any way), that she plans to keep and "wear" for next Halloween...oh, the shame...

The next week, after this disaster...I bought a dress form online for $99, adjusted it to my exact measurements (without her help, I might add), and have been sewing clothes for myself PERFECTLY ever since - best investment I ever made (beside my sewing machine and serger)! Anyone want a crazy 14 year old?
