PR All Stars: Ranting Gives You Wrinkles, Darling.

Oh, WHATEVER.   We suppose this is the part where we’re supposed to rant and then declare that Project Runway has RUINED EVERYTHING but we just can’t work up the energy. A marginally talented reality show contestant was awarded a prize over two other contestants who probably...

Darlings, let’s all head off to somewhere elegant, comfortable, and flattering.   The Nimb Bar, Denmark Because we have a feeling we’re all going to need to get falling-down drunk before it’s all over tonight. Carolyn Murphy, Georgina Chapman, Isaac Mizrahi, guest...

PR All Stars: Le Freak, C’est Chic

We have to admit, this was one of the better episodes of Project Runway we’ve seen in some time.   Sure, the setting helped.   As did getting a personal tour of the House of Valentino. Josh should’ve been thrown out for wearing those pants.   But we think a big part...

TLOunge

Oooh La La, kittens! We’re jetting off to Paris tonight to all sit in uncomfortable chairs and bask in very unflattering underlighting!   Le Bar Laduree, Paris We think we may have featured this bar more than any other single bar for T LOunge. One of these days, we’re going...

PR All Stars: Be All That You Can Be, Bitches!

We don’t really mind it all that much, but nothing says “reality show with many seasons under its belt” than wacky staging. Did we need to be on an aircraft carrier? Not really.   We have to give everyone involved some credit; first, for coming up with a worthy twist on...

TLOunge

Darlings, for our first T LOunge of the New Year, let’s all pack our panties and passports and jet off to Australia! Little Red Pocket in Melbourne, Australia Land of many interesting varieties of seating! Isaac Mizrahi, Georgina Chapman, Carolyn Murphy and guest judges Katie Holmes and...

PR All Stars: Ready-to-Bleh

Darlings, we apologize for the lack of a T LOunge last night. We were in a butter cookie coma and completely forgot about it, which should tell you something about how memorable we’re finding this season of Project Runway. Onward, though.   Not at all a bad challenge. Sure,...

PR All Stars: 23 Skidoo!

Goofy intro and staging – How about those banquet hall cafe tables at the end? – but at least it turned out to be a relatively fun challenge.   These types of challenges are always a bit hard on the designers because they have to be pre-loaded with a knowledge of the period...

TLOunge

Christmas in Stockholm, darlings! It’s like a Lifetime Christmas movie, with a curiously large budget and/or a very cocky art director! Café Opera, Stockholm Freaking fabulous. We want to go to there and then stay there indefinitely, catching the light as we look at fabulous things, all...

PR All Stars: Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons

“Hello, Designers! We are standing here for no good reason! Really! This setting has nothing whatsoever to do with the challenge you are about to undertake! By the way, can you even hear me right now?”   “What?” “Did she say something?” “The sun...

T LOunge

Dress modestly, ladies! We’re heading off to DUBAI, where the money flows like honey!   Cirque du Soir Bar and Club, Dubai It’s about time we all headed out to someplace cray-cray, right? Guest judges Lala Anthony and Kylie Minogue with Isaac Mizrahi, Georgina Chapman and...

PR All Stars: It’s Not Easy Being Green

What a total snooze of an episode. A “make a pretty dress” challenge that they tried to – pun unintended- dress up with a totally unrelated visit to the High Line and the imposition of a “green” restriction, which really only meant that the designers were all...

TLOunge

It’s Thursday, darlings! And we all know what that means! Time to celebrate that it’s the day before the day the weekend starts! The end is in sight, y’all! Now let’s all jet off to Munich and sit in a dark bar, looking mysterious, shall we? The Martini Club, Munich...

PR All Stars: Boys on the Side

  Y’know? This was a pretty good challenge, as so-called “avant garde” challenges go. Androgyny can be tough for some designers – especially the ones in this lot, who probably figured they could make it through the competition churning out pretty dresses until the...

T LOunge

We’re back in business, darlings! Tonight, we’re jetting off to SHANGHAI!   CLOUD 9 Bar at Grand Hyatt Shanghai Gorgeous, no? We’ll start a tab.   Isaac Mizrahi, Georgina Chapman, Carolyn Murphy and guest judges Jason Wu and Robert Rodriguez. Boys tonight, kittens....

PR All Stars: Schmocial Schmedia!

All things considered, this wasn’t a terrible episode. There was some slightly entertaining interpersonal drama, mostly coming from the privileged direction of privileged girl Laura “Privileged” Kathleen, who just doesn’t privileged-understand why all those...

T LOunge

You know why we love the T LOunge posts, darlings? They’re so freaking EASY.   Drayton Bar, Berlin Slap up a couple bar pictures, write a line (if that) about that night’s Project Runway episode, and hand the keys over to the Bitter Kittens for the night. If we could get away...

PR All Stars: Aerosol Art! *snort*

This wasn’t a bad episode at all. Granted, that says something about the season that we started off our recap with that sentence, but still. It had some energy and life to it, which is more than we can say about prior All-Star episodes.   It helped that this was the first real,...

TLOunge

Who needs a drink right now? We do, darlings! And so do you, even if it’s just a mineral water or Diet Coke. You deserve a night of fabulosity, don’t you?   Duck & Waffle Bar, Heron Tower, London Fabulous! But bring a cushion, because we don’t plan on leaving until...

PR All Stars: Turn the Beat Around

  Put on your cha-cha heels, bitches, because we’re all heading out to the DISCO!   We sympathize, Uli. This was one poorly defined challenge. “Disco” isn’t a design brief; it’s just a descriptor – and it’s such a broad descriptor that you...

T LOunge

Darlings, it’s a post-Sandy T LOunge tonight! We’re feeling the need to escape the downed trees and generall yuckiness outside our door and imaginary-jet off to Sydney for the night. Who’s with us? Water Bar in Sydney, Australia Fabulous. Guest Judge Rafe with Isaac Mizrahi,...
