Happy Friday! I can't believe it's already the end of the week, time is moving along way too fast. Anyway, here are some of my fandom thoughts. What are yours?
- I've been rewatching
Project Runway and I'm currently on the 10th season and after rewatching all of these seasons back-to-back, there were so many times where I didn't understand the judges decisions. Something else I also noticed is that the judges were never consistent with their judging. They would love something one minute then hate it the next or call it polished and sophisticated then calling it cheap. There were some really cute and well made clothes that they didn't like throughout those seasons I've rewatched so far. I feel like they were looking at the clothes through their editorial (Nina Garcia) or designer (Michael Kors) lens instead of seeing it from a potential customer's point of view. Because there were a lot of looks that would have easily sold out in stores but they dismissed them for various reasons.
One of my favorite looks was by Bryce Black during the ninth season seventh episode
Can't We Just All Get Along?, where he designed a pair of black and white pattern shorts and an orange top (which I highlighted in the picture below). Although his look was part of the winning Team Chaos collection, they didn't like his outfit because they felt it was not as sophisticated as the other pieces that were in the collection. But it was sophisticated but with a cute and casual feel and I thought it was a perfect look for summer. The only thing that was missing was a cute tote bag or purse.
