I know, it's late
The last ep of Runway was weird, I didn't exactly know how to comment on it. Now I've got a big mess of beer and whiskey in me, so if this comes out incoherent (or belligerent) you'll have to blame the booze.
Aight, first off - when they said that they'd been wanting to do this challenge for a long time they had me ever so hooked. Then, when Heidi came out and said they wouldn't need their models I knew exactly what was going on, and believe me sweets - it's about fucking time. Menswear, baby. Now I know they have done menswear a couple times before, but that was only a side effect of the actual challenge - designing for oneself or for the other contestants (or having Austin model for the postal challenge - wasn't that just so cute?).
But you know, as soon as I realized what was up I knew that this was gonna be tough. The fashion deal is pretty much a women's game, and apparently menswear is difficult to do. I don't know why exactly, it's one of those mysteries that just simply is. One or two of the designers seemed to be able to take it in stride, but pretty much the menswear situation was a serious issue.
Now, I gotta get this off my chest. Hey, Rami - get the fuck over yourself you big bitch. Tim said that the guys could use their own clothes as a pattern basis, and the guy (sorry I forgot your name) who did so - and was nice enough to share with the others, does not need you being a big asshole about it. Tim is the hall monitor, and his word is law. So seeing Rami put on his muslin pants form and get all snippy about how he did it without a pattern, and to make snippy comments about those who did - stick it up your ass you big cunt.
Okay, that's out of my system. With a couple of exceptions, this last episode's offerings were a train wreck. It was just so awful. Badly sewn shirts, crotches where crotches don't need to be, completely missing shirts, icky color choices - so sad. It was a big doom fest. I couldn't even begin to guess who would make it and who would die. All I could do was just sit back and cringe (okay, giggle).
So that's it, really. It looks like the next one is going to be dramarama - you know I'm gonna love it.
