Project Runway?
 

Okay, am I the only one that watches this? ...even if it's mostly for Tim Gunn?

The new season starts next week and I'm excited, just mostly for the Diva antics of some of the contestants and the first 'Make it work!' of the season!

Who's your favourite designer they've had in the past? Favourite judge? Least favourite of either?

Come, share, be fabric-nerdy with me :)

Nope! I watch it too, when it's on, and I got my mom watching it. :).

Personally, I like Project Runway Canada a little better because I like Iman better as a host than Heidi, but I watch them both.

I've only seen a few seasons. From Runway Canada I like Jessica and Sunny, both from the same season (2 I think), and I was rooting for Seth Aaron in the last season I watched (repeat). I can't remember the guy I like in the more recent season we were watching (pre-Seth Aaron's season I think? I'm wonderfully helpful arne't I?!). Could never get the timing right. Same season as the guy with the sort of bright punky/funk style. Had large bright coloured glasses a lot. I thought Ping was adorable and wanted to see more of her stuff but didn't happen.

And yes, Tim is awesome :D.

ive been watching project runway for a couple of seasons now and man nina garcia has no fashion sense whatsoever! they should put tim on that panel instead :D

Who was the guy who wore a hairnet and colonial style clothing? The one who made the dress out of corn husks? I never did manage to catch that episode. Annoys me because I like the ones where they need to use unconventional materials. He was forth or so in the season I think. Season 1 or 2?

oh god thats too many before my time ><

I heard about the grocery store episode and managed to catch the repeat season. He was an interesting sort. :)

waaaaaaaait, there's a canada version??!! I must find this on-line!

I agree, Nina needs a brain swipe, her opinion is usually so opposite mine it's funny.

Yeah, there's a Canada version, though I only know of 2 seasons so far. I really ought to look this stuff up. We get here on Slice network a lot. I find it's a toss up between the two. I like Iman better than Heidi, but Tim better than Brian. I like Sunny Fong from season two, and Jessica Biffy also from season two. Biddell (not sure of his first name) won season one and he has some interseting stuff. I really liked his tiny leather hoody with weaving on the sides. He wasn't my favourite overall though.

I have never been one for fashion (to some family members' lament) but I started watching the show in university when there was nothing else around on tv. I like the whole creative process thing that goes along with it, and watching the clothes being made.

I usually have one favourite that makes it all the way through, but I think only one of 'em has ever won. I usually STRONGLY dislike the winners.... I do admit, Heidi...I will smack her one day, with a brick.

I was happy when Sunny and Seth Aaron won. I liked them both. There were a couple others that didn't make it that I liked. Makes me sad when that happens.

Oh. This was one of the few shows I used to watch religiously before the show was moved to Lifetime and the stations had a big spat with each other.

I loved Project Runway (mostly for Tim Gunn as well). But my favorite never wins.

yeeeeeah, my favs never win either...and season premier on Thursday!!

Damn! When and what channel? Not sure that I'd get it but still, wanna know these things. ;)

Aslo, to be random, would anyone here happen to know how to wash taffetta?

LOL I watch it online at lifetime.com...so I'm assuming it's on TVs lifetime channel
As for washing taffeta, it depends, is it silk taffeta or poly? And are you washing the whole thing or spot cleaning?

Bride's maid dress. I would guess silk tafetta? Not really sure. I suppose I could always look up the manufacturer's details.

Don't have a lifetime channel up here, but the closest I imagine would be Slice. (As in, 'Slice of Life' I assume). I suppose I could consider watching stuff on computer but I like my tv time. :)
