Project Runway Recap: Episode 8

I have to admit I got excited when I saw the new "models" coming out for Project Runway's latest episode. These were real women in their wedding dresses. The challenge: to recreate the wedding dress into something modern and stylish.

Once the designers picked their brides, mostly in order of fabric their dress contained, it was time to talk to their clients to see what the brides wanted. Most interesting was Shirin's girl who wanted a Las Vegas stage dress , something Shirin was sure would land her in the bottom. Another interesting point, several designers dyed the dresses to a darker color. Irina's was a favorite, her lace dress complimented her client incredibly well. I also though Carol Hannah did a great job with a tulle dress. Christopher made a pretty shapeless bubble dress that did not feel age appropriate. There were two pants looks provided by Nicolas and Logan, both hideous.

Winners: Irina, Gordana and Shirin were at the top. The judges loved the pattern Shirin stitched on her white mini dress. I did not understand this decision, it was an ok dress, but nothing to write home about. I thought Carol Hannah should have been in the top instead. Gordana's dress was a strapless rocker chic number and suited her client, and the judges rewarded her with a win.

Losers: Logan, Christopher and Epperson were at the bottom, which is really sad because I like all three. I have no idea why Nicolas was not on this list, his pants and top were the opposite of fashion. Logan's was the most poorly made of the three, the pants still needed to be tailored and the vest/shirt was a mess. Epperson made an A-line dress with details around the waist that reminded Heidi of Oktoberfest. Maybe it looked worse in person but I didn't have such a violent reaction to Epperson's design. Sadly he was the one asked to leave.

Here's a strapless dress that's quite cute.
