Project Runway Season 18 Jan 30 (Episode 8) - Spoilers Included

Icegoddess — Mon, 03 Feb 2020 14:19:52 GMT

Recap of the Fashions: https://www.bravotv.com/project-runway/season-18/season-18/blogs/project-runway-season-18-episode-8-recap

As I said last week, I don’t really understand what an Editorial Look is, so I will only be commenting about what I personally like or don’t like, not about the challenge.

I really would’ve liked Sergio’s if he had left all that long fringe off.

I don’t know how I feel about Brittany’s

Do not care for Marquis’ look at all. He may be going back home.

Geoffrey Mac’s is interesting although I’m not into that blue fabric. I also didn’t like seeing the model’s boobs bouncing around underneath the sheer fabric. I couldn’t believe he actually told the judges he was hoping he wasn’t on the bottom. That tells me he was not happy with his look, so why would the judges be?

Chelsey’s is a no, especially that weird bra part.

I think Nancy redeemed herself on this one I really like that look. Of course, Karlie’s comment about liking a pocket in a ball gown “THOUGH” kinda indicates she had already said something bad about it.

Victoria’s is a huge mess and she knows it.

Delvin’s is a top look for me too.

So, for me there was only 2 top looks, Nancy and Delvin. I guess Sergio can join them even though I really didn’t like those long fringe pieces all over it. If he had just done the fringe for the sleeves, I would love it.

Well, Delvin was safe, so I’m going with Nancy for the win.

Brittany & Delvin were as surprised as I was that Marquis was one of the top looks. But, good for him.

Victoria is blaming her bad design on not understanding sheer? Could she not at least ask someone what that meant? I’m sure her model could’ve explained it to her when they were discussing things.

Now I’m wondering if they’re going to do a real woman challenge this season. I know they now have the curvy models, but that’s not the same to me as non-model models..

As usual I dosed off during this show. I couldn't even remember what the challenge was so I must have fallen asleep pretty early. Then you mentioned sheer and so I did see the beginning when Karlie came out in the sheer trench/dress affair. I don't recall them going to Mood or anything else so will have to catch this On Demand.

So did Christian bring Marquise back in a save? Last week I thought he would have saved him but told him he had to go clean up his space. Or did Dayoung leave due to her ill health and they brought Marquise back to fill her spot?

@jellyBEAN Dayoung left and they brought Marquis back to fill her spot. I missed what happened at Mood because I was concentrating on something else.

@Icegoddess Well that is sad news. I thought Dayoung was one of the more promising ones. Now I do recall her laying in bed not wanting to get up and then the staff medics showing up. After that is when I dozed off I think. Her leaving the show is very disappointing.

@jellyBEAN , yeah, I really liked her work.

I just don't understand the fascination that the judges have with Victoria. Her dress was not sheer and didn't meet the challenge but she was safe. I am really getting the feeling that no matter her attitude or design, she will remain in the contest. It is so unfair to the other designers.

I knew Dayoung was too ill to remain in the contest. She probably should have left after her hospital stay. I hope she gets medical help for her illness.

Add me to the Victoria ia getting on my last nerve chorus. She did ask what sheer meant and it was explained to her plus Christian chased her around Mood showing her all the sheer fabrics and she still picked what she picked. She was all sweetness and light at the beginning of the competition when she was at the top but lordy she is not gracious when she falls behind. I am glad the judges let her know to knock it off but I fear she is going to rise from the ashes next week and zoom back up to the top. Her attitude is just terrible when she doesn't like the challenge and for that alone I would have sent her home last night.

I personally would have voted for Nancy for the win but the craftsmanship in Sergio's dress was spectacular. I can live with it.

And I am sad to see Deyoung leave the show but I am equally as glad she did as her health was really slipping away. It would be nice if they brought her back next season as I would really like to see what she can do when she is healthy.

Thanks as always for posting the recap @Icegoddess !

What I didn't understand is how Cristian can say that Karlie's outfit was sheer. It was made with sheer material, but it was like 100 layers. I didn't see her skin under there.

Re: Project Runway Seaton 18 Jan 30 (Episode 8) - Spoilers Included

Nancy Drew — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 15:04:46 GMT

For me Sergio deserved the win. The fabric choice put it over Nancy. Delvin, Nancy, Brittany, Marquis, Geoffrey Chelsea and Victoria going home. Chelsea at least used sheer material and she didn't do the same dress over and over. I liked this challenge. This is why I watch PR. That and Christian.

Re: Project Runway Seaton 18 Jan 30 (Episode 8) - Spoilers Included

Icegoddess — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 15:42:46 GMT

The recaps are up.

If Sergio wins it all I may just have to stop watching. His attitude is over the top. Back on the top "AS IT SHOULD BE." Blech! Boy, you could tell Delvin wasn't happy.

Luvitorleaveit1 — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 15:47:23 GMT

I didn't finish watching it last night but will do so later this evening.

Even though I haven't seen the entire show I must say Victoria is getting on my last nerve and if she doesn't understand what the challenges are about how about using the all powerful and wonderful Google unless cell phones are banned!

@VaBelle35 THANK YOU! I was thinking the exact same thing . . . maybe Victoria had a good reason to say she was confused . . .

Victoria knew EXACTLY what sheer meant--it was explained to her and Christian SHOWED her sheer fabric. She just thinks she can do her own thing and be on top every week. I'm over her and her one note designs. That dress looked like she forgot to sew fabric on to one side.

I had the same reaction to Geoffrey's look--the first words out of my mouth were "I don't want to see her b**bs bouncing down the runway".

I didn't' like all the fringe on Sergio's dress, but at least we didn't have to hear his political statement about the garment.

Geoffrey's was, by far, my favorite. Of course, I wish he would have designed the bust area somehow so that everything didn't show. I loved Sergio's fringe but didn't like how it was attached to the dress. Marquise's was nice but I didn't think it would be a top 3. I hated the black material he used around the neckline. It cheapened the look. I suppose he did it to help hide the bust area. If I were judging, I would have opted for a double elimination...Victoria & Chelsey.

mousiegirl — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 18:40:20 GMT

I say that Victoria should have just proceeded with her original design, and if she was sent home because of it, at least it would have been something she was proud of. She has a successful business in fashion, so I don't understand why designers who already have a business would be on this show. I thought the idea was to help up and coming designers establish a business/line with the money won.

It was right that Sergio won, sorry to see Chelsea go, but it came down to how her dress fit and how Victoria's dress fit and sewing technique, but personally, I thought Victoria's looked terrible.

Victoria is a prima donna! She needs to go home. She's getting STALE, and her understanding was PERFECT.

I loved Sergio's dress. I thought it was magnificent as soon as it hit the runway. Very elegant and beautifully made. I'm not normally a fringe lover, but somehow it worked on this dress. Nancy's was also a stand out. Very beautiful. I just can't stand Sergio's obnoxious attitude and arrogance.

I thought the SAME THING about Karlie's dress.... not so sheer.

I think they sent the wrong person home. Victoria should have exited, but the show wants her personality. These shows thrive on conflict and big personalities!

ahoymate — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 19:20:15 GMT

I loved Karlie's dress!!! In fact I love most of the dresses she wears on the show.

Victoria should be sent home. Cry baby. Can't believe the judges put up with this.

Sergio's dress, ok, but I'm not liking fringe. Esp. so much fringe on that dress.

Re: Project Runway Seaton 18 Jan 30 (Episode 8) - Spoilers Included

Porcelain — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 19:42:51 GMT

I have a conspiracy theory about Victoria. And I'm probably wrong. Here it is: I think that before Victoria got on the show, she designed (and maybe had help designing?) and practiced and memorized how to quickly make exactly enough amazing asymetrical strap outfits to get through the show. But she didn't think it through quite well enough.

So when she has any restrictions on the basics, like a model shape she didn't practice for or a vastly different underpinning fabric requirement, she can't do it. She falls apart. And she can't admit that's what is going on because it would basically be admitting to cheating, or close enough therebouts. So she says she's upset about other things.

And another thing...lol. I don't like the Christian Serriano save option.It's so obvious that each booted designer is hoping like crazy Christian will save them, and then when he sends them off to the workroom to clean up their stuff, it just crushes them.

When it was Tim Gunn, Tim was more sensitive about saying goodbye to the designers. When he didn't save them it felt like he recongnized and accounted for what was really going on. Christian, possibly because he's a bit less mature, acts obivious to the fact that he's blowing them off. It seems like an additional heavy blow to the designer with the way he does it.

Yahooey — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 20:14:00 GMT

Let me understand

when Victoria wins or is on the top - english HA - easy peasy

when Victoria ia on the bottom - I wanna go home than be on the bottom?

You didn't understand sheer? BS - you saw it - it is NOT a verbal description and you went by your lonesome to Mood

You saw what everyone else was buying - duh

You refused to follow the challenge yet again and you resent Christian's comments

so...PR is supposed to hand over the 1st prize to you bc you showed up in participation?

is that what happened when you play sports in school? everyone got a prize for showing up and no one lost?

apologies for digressing...I think PR created drama in editing. We probably never saw her nature in the beginning and BAM here she is ...

all these designers who believe they know more than the judges or resent Christian's comments - have you not been watching the show? then don't go on the show

I did like Sergio's dress (minus the fringe) and Nancy's the beat.

Although I'm glad Marquis came back - he can NOT keep saying he didn't deserve to go home - look at the dart on the bustline. Just say I'm grateful for the 2nd chance and will do better.

Re: Project Runway Seaton 18 Jan 30 (Episode 8) - Spoilers Included

SWEET — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 20:33:53 GMT

Here's my take this week everyone:

I absolutely loved Sergio's and his was the best o ut of all the top 3.

Delvin should have been in the top 3 in my opinion.

Marquise's I thought was messy and all over the place. Surprised that he was one of the top 3.

Brittany's was just a mess and hated the shorts. Tired of her dissing everyone and rolling her eyes every week. This week is was because of what Brandon said about Victoria I think?

Geoffrey's was just ok; hated the stripes but it fit her well. That's all I can say nicely about it.

I didn't like Nancy's at all. Looked like any other long dress and I've seen that style so many times somewhere or other.

Victoria - she's lucky she's still there w/her breakdowns but she finally got something on her model. I liked the fabric but not the style once again which looked the same to me.

Poor Daeyoung. She should have left when she first didn't feel well. She's got talent and sorry she left. I liked her.

And last but not least -- what was Chelsey thinking? The strips of fabric were messy and that bralette (as Brandon called it) was hideously made. I love that Karlie called it a pool cover. LOL.

Onto next week.
