Project Runway Season 9

Morrigoon · 07-28-2011, 04:24 PM

Just noticed that the new season is starting tonight.

JWBear · 07-28-2011, 04:40 PM

Yes.... And have you seen the crew thaey have this season. Some very interesting personalities this time around!

Morrigoon · 07-28-2011, 05:06 PM

Haven't. Just set a recording though. Took me a bit to find it, somehow I expected it to be on TLC or Bravo, not Lifetime

JWBear · 07-28-2011, 06:37 PM

It's been on Lifetime for the last couple of seasons.

Morrigoon · 07-29-2011, 12:29 PM

Okay, there seem to be a couple people with skills. Based on the "road to the runway show", I think I'm pulling for the Carribbean chick, but still have to catch up on the first official episode.

No TV here. I wonder if it's on Hulu?

Morrigoon · 07-29-2011, 02:00 PM

Hmm... really liked what the older guy did with his boxers. (Oh god, that's going to end up on quotes, isn't it?)

Some really bad fit issues in that first episode. Amazingly, the girl who's just learned to sew managed better fit than a lot of the more experienced designers.

Don't know what that one guy was thinking trying to do a pintuck down the length of tight pants on a knit fabric. That was just begging to look all uneven.

I wished that the judges had auffed the bottom three all at once.

Bert (the Peach of this season) did well. It looked far better on his model than the mannequin. I like Olivier (he seems to be the Christian Siriano of the season).

Still hard to tell at this point, too many people we've seen almost nothing of.

It was good to see Mondo and Laura during the preview doing some judging of the contestants.

Morrigoon · 07-29-2011, 03:47 PM

I'm still surprised at how many fit issues I saw. I thought the judges would be ALL OVER them for that. They did get on a few of them, but man... if you can't get the fit right people... why are you doing a trouser??

This is the first season we've committed to actually watching while it happens.

Though I do enjoy the show in reruns and enjoyed the premiere, I was instantly reminded of why it took me so long to accept that I like it. I HATED Bert's design. I can see that the mix of fabrics in the waistline was interesting, but otherwise I thought the shape was seriously unattractive, or maybe I couldn't get past the orange check? Whatever it was, though I often do agree with what the judges are saying, I know I'll never be a true fashionista.
