Project Runway All-Stars: Episode 1
Watch the episode here.
It's an All-Star special this season, and some of the most popular designers in the history of Project Runway are back! Mondo's fashion sense gets even more hideous, Mila reminds me of Edna Mode from The Incredibles, Rami looks very muscular now, April's presence is absolutely boring, Jerell is really obnoxious, and Elisa still makes spitmarks on almost everything she possesses.
When Angela Lindvall, the host filling in for Heidi this season, walked into the room, a distinct "Who the hell are you?" look crossed the faces of a few of the contestants.
For this challenge, each designer got $100 to shop at the 99-cent store to create a look inspired by the looks they tried out on their models earlier.
Instead of the warm and avuncular Tim Gunn, All-Stars heads in the opposite direction, with Marie Claire editor-in-chief Joanna Coles replacing him. She is fierce, not Tyra-fierce, but fierce-fierce.
Also, instead of the permanent judges Michael Kors and Nina Garcia, this season introduces us to Isaac Mizrahi and Georgina Chapman, co-founder of Marchesa.

Jerrell
Jerrell's flowing dress made out of scarves and placemats was lovely, but it didn't push the boundaries. Great detailing in the back!

Mondo
Amazing dress aesthetically, and this was a push of the envelope on Mondo's part, because he didn't go for loud and clashing prints. From far, no one could tell this was constructed from trash bags, electrical tape, and plastic cowboy hats.

WINNER
Rami
Both Rami's inspiration dress and unconventional dress were inspired and impeccably constructed. This type of stunning design is what was missing last season. For his runway look, Rami did the opposite of drape and created a sturdy, architectural dress that called to mind a robot-maid or a deconstructed plaid couch or something Lady Gaga would wear to lounge around the house. Very editorial.

LOWEST
Gordana
Gordana's unconventional dress was just like her inspiration dress, though this time around it looks cheaper. This piece was too much to handle.

Sweet P
This was just boring, and she didn't even try something adventurous by diving straight for wash cloth at the 99 cent store. Clearly a lack of vision.

OUT
Elisa
This was ridiculous, and she did herself in by opening her mouth. Consumers like clothes that tell a story immediately, not ones that need to be explained.
