TV catchup
Feb. 14th, 2008 07:21 amColbert didn't do "The Word".... :-(
Project Runway was interesting. I loved the idea behind this challenge. The Met is an amazing place, and I can only imagine what it would be like to have the place to oneself. We were surprised that they allowed flash photography of the paintings, though. And while the Temple of Dendur is an amazing place, I'm not sure what sort of fashion inspiration one can get from it (as opposed to the whole Egypt wing leading into it).
Maybe these designs just didn't translate well on TV, because the only one I liked was Jillian's. Christian's came across as schlumpy and unfocused. Chris's looked like his model has a large Glad trash bag on her shoulder.
I was satisfied with the resolution, though. One wonders whether Rami will develop a collection that has eight draped dresses, plus three others that he uses to qualify. And perhaps I'm just not sufficiently fashion-conscious, but can one really be that "passionate" about draping? That sounds like me saying I'm passionate about IEnumerable.
