I think the judges got it wrong!

I think Korto should have won, but I think Seth Aaron will provide more sophisticated looks for QVC, which some of us customers prefer to buy.

I hope QVC sees all of the Korto love!! Anyways, thus is not a surprise - it was reported months before anyone knew the Q was associated with PRA. Wanted it to be wrong...regardless, I liked Seth Aaron his winning season, so will see what he brings.

I actually loved Elena's collection, but still remember Seth Aaron's PR collection, and wishing I could buy some of his clothes--and now I can!

I agree. Just knew Korto had it. Can't wait for Tim Gunn's new show next week. He's such a class act!!

Another vote for Korto. I'd even put Elena before Seth Aaron. Shows how much I know!

I thought Elena's collection was very well done considering the time allowed, but I agree with what Gail said - her designs are very similar to each other and are for a very limited clientel. And her skirts weren't very well done. Korto's things are lovely but really nothing new. She will make a great ready-to-wear designer and I'm sure will go far. Seth Aaron's collection had the proportions right, the red coat and white dress were awesome.

I agree that the judges got it wrong. It should have been Korto!

I'd buy something she designed sooner than I'd buy a design of Seth Aaron.

I was hoping Korto would win but Seth Aaron's final collection was very good. I loved last week's dress too. They will all do very well, lots of talent. I like Elena but it seemed like more of the same thing over and over.

I think Korto blew it with those unfortunate short tight skirts. They just didn't work with that flowy easy vibe of the the tops they were shown with or with the overall style of the collection. I wish that last jumpsuit was walking into my closet today.

I thought Seth Aaron had the best collection. By that I mean how each look tied together. I could move a few things around in my closet to make space for his red coat and the printed dress Gale King liked.

Elena's was ok, but that was the problem it was just ok. She didn't send anything that made me go wow ... I'd love to wear that runway. My favorite outfit from her was the gray trapeze shaped jacket she showed with a gray leather skirt.

I just looked at his QVC collection. Not bad, I actually like the pieces and could see myself wearing them.

I loved something from each of the three, especially that print dress from Seth. Wow. Guess its a good thing I am not a judge....their designs were so different from each other. Sorry that Korto came in second AGAIN....but I can understand why the judges chose Seth considering where they want to use him at QVC. It will be fun to see what he brings.

I know that Korto will be fine...Isaac really seemed to want her to win.

Cr----p, I should not have opened this thread. I was going to watch tonight!

Re: Project Runway All-Stars

QueenDanceALot — Fri, 10 Jan 2014 16:52:09 GMT

I thought they got it exactly right!

Seth Aaron's collection was bold and sharp and (for the mostpart) beautifully made. His collection really made a statement.

I loved the first dress of Korto's and the last (the long jumper) but the middle had a lot of proportion and fit problems (IMO). Nice prints, though.

Elena's was a train wreck. I agreed with the judges that the time she took to do all of those cutouts took away from the time she needed to address the skirts which didn't fit and which had length problems.

I'm with you, jewel fool, was looking forward to watching tonight, now not so much, no surprise ending. Should have known not to click on.

I wanted to wear a Korto Momolu design! Seth designed a 'runway' collection. QVC was looking for a ready to wear designer. The only thing I might buy from his collection on here now is the dotted dress. Korto would have brought more things I would have wanted. If you look at what Seth has, do you see Joan Rivers and other designers on the Q? I do. I loved the dress Korto brought after the LR design, just couldn't afford it. Oh well, as someone said above, maybe Isaac will get us some of her things somehow.

I don't think they got it wrong but Kortu would have been a better fit for QVC.

While I thought that Seth Aaron's was the best collection, I am kind of surprised they didn't go with Korto considering the QVC angle. If Isaac was pulling for her to win I would have thought he'd have some influence. I do think that her style would appeal more to the QVC customer as a whole.

Edited to add that I just checked Seth Aaron's items that are already available and they don't look very new or interesting.
