I know, right? So Anna got 28 votes of the 50 cast. JP got about 9 and Daniella got the other 13. Fashion Show RIP please.

JP, while interesting, really didn't make clothes for the viewer vote. Anna and Daniella's lines were more geared towards a consumer purchase, which is really what the show had been touting all season long. One thing I found quite interesting, when they did a recap of all the winning outfits... 9 out of 11 outfits were either solid black or had black as the main component. The 11th outfit was solid gray (to me, a variation of black). Didn't Daniella get blasted for using so much black? And didn't Issac say a designer needed to use colors? I don't think the show was horrendous.. did it need help?.. yeah.. but it wasn't an NBC "Cooking with Celebrities" show. If Bravo is smart, they're make some changes and learn from this season. There's no reason both this and PR can't co-exist.

IMO, PR hasn't worked in at least two seasons. The first two or three seasons had that extra something, but the last two or three have been boring and lame. If the new season isn't good, PR may be ready to be put out to pasture, too. ITA. A lot of why I was excited for FS to begin with was because I was bored of PR for the past two seasons. I thought something new would interest me, and it did for awhile.

There's no reason both this and PR can't co-exist. Actually, Bravo is fucked. I don't see how they can make this show better without making it too similar to Project Runway. They run the risk of another lawsuit for copyright infringement. I think that's the reason why Issac and Kelly don't counsel the designers like Tim Gunn does on Project Runway. If they get rid of the audience selection of the winner then it's a carbon copy of Project Runway. And if they get rid of Kelly and replace her with a model it makes it worse. The format can't be identical. The panel of judges can't be a fashion magazine editor, a designer, and a model. I believe that why the Elle contributor is not a judge, too much like Nina Garcia. Maybe they'll tinker with the hosts, but the format won't change too much.

She shouldn't be allowed to cast a vote when they choose who to eliminate. It's just ridiculous. And since the audience decides the winner and people have seen the first season, now the contestants will be all about making 'pretty' clothes from next season. No one like JP or Merlin would be on the show. They shouldn't bother to apply actually. Last Edited By: SentinelHeart 07/25/09 12:54 AM. Edited 1 times.

A few pages back, I posted a link to an article that states what the website Project RunGay thinks should change to make the show more watchable. A lot of what they posted were very good ideas and made the show about fashion, but way more geared to the consumer and not the high world of fashion. One of their ideas, which I really liked, was to cast recently graduated fashion students, not already working/established people. There's a lot of things BRavo can do so they won't be "fucked."

Posts: 4187 (07/25/09 1:45 AM) Registered User Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	^^^The idea of only selecting recently graduated fashion students is unsustainable, because those students would actually want a career in fashion and wouldn't want to sully their names on a reality show unless it gave them a real leg up which this show certainly does not. and the ones that would want to be on a reality show would rather be on Project Runway. Also that pool of applicants would be too homogeneous. The mixing of people from different backgrounds and varying ages adds to the drama. And the fascination people have with fashion is the spectacle element it creates. If there is no spectacle then what's the point? No one wants to see designers make looks geared for Filene's Basement. They want to make them see ridiculous/fabulous gowns.

There is bitchy, then there is beyond bitchy to irritatingly pathetic. He acted that whole reunion as if he was far far better than any one there. Merlin was entertaining on the show, but to see him in that fuming childish state made him one of the lowest reality tv personalities ever for me. good riddance to bad rubbish, hope he has an epic fail in all his future endeavours. That finale was duller than dishwater, except for the offer for Daniella's job with other high end fashion designers. Was she really that good? I guess the fashion establishment likes designers who design for skeletons! go figure!

I think when she was offered the job it was going to be for more HIGH end fashion and not a mass produced Sears catalouge fashion that Anna got.

Daniella didn't entirely suck, but she's so high on herself she probably thinks she'll be able to start her own line by herself. Plus, she's proven that she;s not a team player so I can't imagine her working for a high fashion designer being productive. She'll complain that everything she designs should have her name on it even though that's NOT the way it works.
