I don't watch Project Runway, but I can see why Lisa didn't want to wear this dress. Her sense of style in formal wear is more sophisticated.

Re: Kortu's Project Runway Dress

Gee whiz so not a issue. You ladies are being ridiculous. It's all about money and business. If the dress was a knockout it would have been worn longer.

Re: Kortu's Project Runway Dress

I did not care for the PR dress but it looks like Lisa did wear it. The blue dress was probably a more appropriate choice for the event itself.

Thanks for the photo. I think Lisa looks great in Korto's dress, but I also think Lisa wanted a more sophisticated dress for this red carpet event.

When will you folks ever learn?

Lisa wears what she is told to wear. QVC had a contract with Project Runway and honored it (see pic of Lisa and Miss Piggy).

They also have a promotional contract with Mark Zunino and with others. The talent (Lisa) can suggest, but she doesn't get the final say so.

unfortunately, some look for any little thing to be offended about when it comes to lisa. {#emotions_dlg.sad}

There is no offense in my post at all. I did not criticize Lisa at all. I said she looked great in Korto's dress, but preferred a more sophisticated look.

Re: Kortu's Project Runway Dress

I definitely got that impression when watching PR. Lisa should have said " pre- show dress" then. It's stupid, making a designer dress in a quick 2 days when you think about it.

Re: Kortu's Project Runway Dress

I did not like that Project Runway episode at all. The dress was chosen because it is flowy enough to fit the QVC client without getting too many returns. On a larger-busted woman like Lisa, it is not flattering.

Re: Kortu's Project Runway Dress

I don't care for the dress and it doesn't look like anything Lisa would wear.

i'm sorry. my comment was in regards to the original poster that started this thread.

Re: Kortu's Project Runway Dress

Sorry Kortu. That dress is Just A Dress. Not really "out of this world" like most of the top designers from the series (Santino, Kirasahn, Austin Scarlett, and others). You are lucky to have won.
