Season 7 of Project Runway wrapped up with the final runway show and the last three designers bitching about each other's collection. Emilio called Mila's black-and-white 60s fest "severe" and "demure." How is it possible to be both at the same time? Mila's designs were somewhat predictable but they were very well made. She took the judges' advice and roughed up the models. I particularly liked that spy trench coat Brandeis was wearing and the mini-glitter cocktail skirt was Mila's best piece.
Seth Aaron took Tim's advice too literally and made his ho-hum collection into Nazis on parade, stating his inspiration as Russian and German military garb. The perfect ensemble for the next time you attend a Nuremberg rally. All of his models looked like Veronika Voss with fat lips or like they were about to burst into Lili Marlene. One girl resembled a piece of black forest chocolate cake. Another was a black widow spider. And why did Seth Aaron's hair make him look like he was wearing earmuffs?
In spite of his bragging, Emilio's designs impressed me the most. They were very wearable and cohesive with the matching shades of red and blue. I like that he went from daywear to evening wear.
I heard that the producers had to pay for a total of 10 collections because Fashion Week occured when there were 10 designers still on the show. I will try to find footage of the decoy designers. I wonder how they worked it. Did they all have to run abd be in the audience when the others were on so no one could figure out who was a finalist?
Anyway, once again, the judges go for the weird over the wearable by picking Seth Aaron over Emilio. Emilio breaks down and Seth Aaron's family greets him on the runway. I wonder what Seth's teenage son told his friends at school?
