Excellent and thanks!

I re-watched season 16 recently and, yes, the twins and practically everything else about that season grated. Thanks for posting the picture - I didn't know how. 🙂

That was season 16, 1st episode and it was Deyonte Weather who won.

I recognized the fabric right away, too. It was Viktor Luna, Project Runway All Stars. I didn't like Chris's design -- I thought the way he used the print made his model's bottom half look oversized and choppy. And since I'm commenting... I didn't get the love for Izzy's design and would have switched her placement with Haawaa.

Yes -- it's the same site, gettyimages.com. To save search time, enter project runway new york fashion week september 2016. There are several still shots, none of which are organized by collection and may not be complete, but at least you can see them close up.

Collection 1: Boring. Sorry to say it because what she produced this season, particularly the black silk/leather dress, was very good. Maybe she burned out? Collection 2: Ugly -- I want to like it because I find him likable, but I can't. Collection 3: Uglier. High marks twice, combine the two to make a collection? Collection 4: Delpozo (thank you Tom & Lorenzo!) Note the sleeve treatment. Collection 5: Interesting and agree that it looks a lot better in motion. One of my favorite designers this season. Collection 6: Wearable. So happy he won the $50k along with his mom (I suspect this was a consolation prize). My personal favorite is the short-sleeved denim dress -- love that print! I think Erin will be taking home the win because deliberation always comes down to Creativity vs. Wear-ability (Nina vs. Heidi) and I believe it's Nina's turn to call the shots?

For anyone interested, Project Runway is selling season 15 designs on ebay (seller ID is project.runway). All items through episode 2 have sold with Erin's neoprene dress selling at the highest -- $510 -- so far.

During the intro, there should have been the following disclaimer: For product placement only I guess they edited it out...

Dimitry! Seth Aaron! Mondo! Alfalfa! Oh my!

Coming out of lurkdom to say, NAILED IT. I'm okay with Alyssa as a host, and she is forever lovely to look at, but yeah, she seriously needs a new stylist. I wanted Kini's outfit -- don't care what the judges think. Sam? SHOO... just go.

Okay! I was going to ask how to mark something a spoiler, but I've figured it out.

Sorry -- I wasn't aware! Cheers!

Paraphrasing Tom and Lorenzo, In the real world, designers don't choose the client, a client CHOOSES the designer - would you go to Chinese restaurant and expect/ask for/demand a taco? I agree with you and it was certainly unfair to all of them. It seems Swapnil had the extra burden of having a mentor who wanted him gone.

I just want to make a quick comment about the season 12 reunion special led by Tim. Generally speaking, I think the reunion shows are little more than vehicles for stirring up old wounds and serve no other purpose than to humiliate contestants. I was shocked, seriously, when I saw Tim was its MC. Tim was the last person I thought would engage in this crap. Okay, so maybe he was under contract and he had no choice, but it was definitely an eye-opener and a huge disappointment.
