Oh, what the hell. Why not. One more time, darlings.   Allegra, Dubai To be honest, we just want to celebrate that we’re finally getting a break from Project Runway, which we’ve been blogging non-stop in one form or another for over 18 months. Kittens, we need the rest. We...

Hit it, oh disappointed ones!     Stanley Stanley shocked the shit out of us. We might have predicted that his collection would skew dowdy and mature, but we never would have guessed that he’d be the flighty, scatterbrained, unprepared one. We’re going to say it: We got...

Hello. I’m Nina Garcia, Project Runway co-host, Marie Claire Creative Director, and best-selling author. Welcome. Come with me as we take a journey; a journey through another boring Project Runway finale. Our story starts here, when Stanley, the little girl with the dreadful tattoos,...

Curtain UP, bitches!   Cube Nightclub and Rooftop Patio, Toronto, Canada Wouldn’t it truly be awesome to have a viewing party in that pit? Just hang a giant TV on that pole, please. And run up a tab. Guest judge Michael Kors, Nina Garcia, Zac Posen and Heidi Klum Oh praise Jesus,...

SAN FRANCISCO, BITCHES! Hakkasan Restaurant and Lounge Bar, San Francisco We’re ready for some cool lighting and hot men. We are so ready for some Kors up here in this joint. Look at the three of them. He looks like he’s being kept after school by the hot German teacher and the...

London!   Paris!   Berlin!   Barcelona!   Bullshit! Feh. We don’t even want to talk about it because it was such obvious bullshit designed to punish a frontrunner and inject some melodrama into the proceedings. It was blatantly, obviously unfair and it completely...

Pack your caftans and your coke mirrors, darlings! We’re jetting off to sunny MOROCCO! Where we intend to sit in a cool, dark bar and eye-sex strangers.   Le Bar Italien at La Mamounia, Marrakech, Morocco We are so there, bitches. Also, Lifetime has something they want to tell you:...

  Okay, they didn’t set the designers on fire, like we predicted. Maybe they should have, because this was kind of a dull episode. But of course you’re going to have a dull episode when the challenge is “Make a pretty dress for Nina’s magazine.”   And...

We’re in the mood for something cozy, intimate, and very New York. Walk this way.   Experimental Cocktail Club, New York City Comfy seats! We’ll go start a tab. Let’s all resolve to order something new tonight, okay? Guest judge Jordana Brewster, Nina Garcia, Zac Posen...

We’ll put this challenge on the pile with the rest of them under a sign that says “vaguely explained.” After all, “wearable art” can mean just about anything to anybody, and it’s not like the judges on this show are known for their consistent application of...

Well, we knew it was going to happen eventually. Not the perennial “retail” challenge (although we did know that was going to happen eventually too); it’s the team format. We knew it was eventually going to yield fucked up results like last night.   We admit, the team...

Darlings, we’re feeling the need for some Paris in our day, aren’t you? Le Bar du Hôtel Plaza Athénée, Paris Gorgeous and comfy. Start a tab. Guest judge Bonnie Brooks, Nina Garcia, Rachel Roy and Heidi Klum So Zac Posen’s really just a part-time Duchess, isn’t he? Tim...

Okay. Well. We’re supposed to be angry and we’re supposed to say “THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FASHION/IS A TRAVESTY/CHEAPENS THE PROJECT RUNWAY NAME!!!!!” But that ship sailed years ago. PR has always had some form of stagewear challenge and while it isn’t really...

Darlings, we’re too tired to jet off to parts exotic tonight. We’ll meet you in the decidedly less exotic Los Angeles for some comfy seating and mood lighting.   The Edison, Los Angeles Of course, we’re so tired that we might fall asleep on those couches before Project...

  It wasn’t a bad idea for a challenge at all. We’ve been thinking for some time now that the show really needs to break out of its challenge rut. Every season it’s: Unconventional materials Real women Make a dress for Heidi Make a dress for an ad campaign/Marie Claire...

Darlings, we’re feeling low-key, intimate, and Parisian at the moment. La 25ème Heure, Paris Pack your clove cigarettes and meet us there. Guest judge Chris Benz, Nina Garcia, Zac Posen and Heidi Klum Yadda yadda yadda. Yadda. Yadda yadda bo badda bananana fanna fo fadda . Talk amongst...

We cringed through this whole episode. Not because we dislike senior ladies, but because “real woman” challenges inevitably (and by design) push the buttons of the viewership and there’s always at least one designer who reaches down, grabs their own foot, and shoves it in...

Grab your panties, pills, and passports, bitches! We’re off to SHANGHAI! Yucca Lounge, Shanghai Fabulous. A glimpse into our lives.: We wanted to paint our dining room the color of Isobel Crawley’s sitting room on Downton Abbey, but it wound up being not far from the blue of these...

Yeehaw! Dead cattle! Never before in the history of Project Runway…!   We don’t mind when the designers are forced to make something far outside the confines of the world of fashion. Once they handled lady wrestlers and drag queens, all bets were off.   But Miranda...

London? Why yes, darlings. We think we will. Golden Bee Bar, London Join us, won’t you? The seats don’t look comfortable but the lighting is divine. Guest judge Miranda Lambert, Nina Garcia, Zac Posen and Heidi Klum Since this season has been not-awful with occasional bouts of...

We have a feeling this is going to be an unpopular opinion, but the team conceit is actually pumping a little bit of life into a tired old format. It’s not just the shuffling around of contestants from team to team; we all pretty much figured that was coming.   No, it was more than...
