hoodooznoodooz October 25, 2022 Share October 25, 2022 (edited) That dress with the curved cut-out that resulted in a FLAP of fabric? Horrid. Jenny is going to deplete all of her savings (from working as a stylist), and this endeavor is going to tank. She sacrificed a lot. Plus, she probably didn’t freeze her eggs. A late marriage is practically the kiss of death, if you really really really want to be a mom. 😔 Edited October 25, 2022 by hoodooznoodooz Link to comment
hoodooznoodooz October 25, 2022 Share October 25, 2022 I love Anya for explaining that you don’t show that barely “upscale” brand at the Meurice. The venue upstaged the collection. She knows her s- - -. Jenny and Victoria completely impressed me with how calm they were. Yoanne showing up with the guests. I wonder what his salary is. 1 Link to comment

hoodooznoodooz October 25, 2022 Share October 25, 2022 Wow. I’m surprised how many 20- and 30-somethings hope for Disney princess weddings. Is it just me? I have always been too sensible and practical. I wanted to opt out of the wedding reception, but the groom insisted. And then I bought my ivory dress on sale from J. Crew for $90. Thoroughly-researched real estate, in my opinion, is the only justifiable big ticket purchase. 3 Link to comment
hoodooznoodooz October 25, 2022 Share October 25, 2022 (edited) Oooh! Did you notice the continuity gaffe? Margaux approaches her friend/partner’s flat carrying a bright royal blue angular handbag. The friend/partner opens the door of her unit, and Margaux’s bag is a pale pink oval. ETA: Of course, Romy & Michele (thank you, witty Adja!) have matching oval handbags.

hoodooznoodooz October 25, 2022 Share October 25, 2022 I am happy that Anya has such a strong support system. Her fiancé and Adja understand that the event is stressing her out. They are not letting Anya’s tone of voice offend them. 1 3 Link to comment

Well. except for the cut of the dress she wore to Victoria's event AND the fact that her tatas need way more support than she's giving them. Going back to the smack talking. While I agree that what was shown with Victoria overhearing them in Cannes wasn't bad, Adja, Emily & Anya have been throwing shade amongst themselves and in their interviews since the trip. It makes me wonder if more was said in Cannes or if Victoria/Margaux simply felt excluded. IMHO, they're playing the role of mean girls all of sudden. I'd hate to think that it's producer driven/assisted because the early vibe of the show was much more enjoyable to watch. 1 2 3 Link to comment

Margoaux’ dream is designing slip dresses, yet she knows nothing about fabrics, designs, sourcing? She just had a vision, I guess. The final products were fairly unimpressive and the fabric was wrinkled. I like Anya and Victoria. I don’t even remember the others’ names. if it weren’t for the Paris cinematography, I would have stopped watching after two episodes. 1 2 Link to comment

I really hope the mean girl acts are producer driven because the one thing I like about this show is that they do seem to be friends and are supportive of each other. Which is why if there is a second season I hope they don’t bring back Yoanne and his bitchiness. He didn’t even know Margaux and tried to start shit with her. I have stopped watching other reality shows with women, looking at certain Real Housewives shows, because of the fighting and meanness, I’d hate for this show to go down that path. 1 3 2 Link to comment

wallies October 27, 2022 Share October 27, 2022 Adja - Her boyfriend was totally not into her. That was an immediate NOPE on long distance. And the kiss on the forehead - ugh. Like he was giving her consolation prize or something. Victoria - Even though the fashions looked terrible, she works really f*ing hard. Girl who works like that will ultimately be successful, it's just a matter of time. Margaux - I thought her fashions looked better than Victoria's; at least they had color. But that's because she paid someone else to do everything. Anya - The real life Mrs. Maisel is by far and away the best person on this show. Emily - She doesn't get enough air time for me to get a feel for her. 2 2 Link to comment
MaggieG October 28, 2022 Share October 28, 2022 Ok, were there more clothes that Victoria designed? The entire fashion show was 6 or 7 outfits. What exactly was she working on around the clock? I did think her mom was very sweet and I love how proud she was of Victoria. What is up with Yoanne? Does he actually work for this company? If yes, Jenny needs to fire him immediately. Anya's event was interesting. But she only makes money if people buy stuff right? Meaning, she has to invite people with deep pockets who will actually be interested in buying and not just looking around.

I have a suspicion that besides the vendors she brought in (the wine merchant, the jewelry lady, the makeup seller), that there was costs for some of the food, flowers etc. She mentioned that two people were interested in the Dali melting clock sculpture. Hopefully she will at least break even. Since the place where it was held in was also up for sale, what profit can she expect from that? To the realtor that’s like a bonus open house, but would they be willing to share their commission? Just wondering. 1 1 Link to comment

It sounded like there were 10+ outfits, but they were only able to fix the 6-7 that were showcased between the samples getting screwed up and her awful boss continuously asking for changes up until the models started to walk. I liked the designs. They certainly weren't high fashion, but they were cute (not sure what the aesthetic of the company is supposed to be) and shows Victoria actually has decent talent. 2 1 1 Link to comment

I half-expect us to learn that he was shtupping someone else in Adja’s home while she was in Cannes, and that’s the only reason he tidied her apartment (well, the bedroom and maybe the kitchen, anyway; he had to launder the sheets, so, heck, why not actually make the bed properly?). Every time he appears on camera, he does/says the bare minimum, in order to maintain the sex supply. And to make sure she keeps cooking for him. He says, “I love you,” which is playing dirty, in my opinion. I wonder what he said to his mother. Did he lie to her, too? Or is she willing to send that postcard, to pimp for her son? Are we going to learn that he’s like Ron Carlisle/Tootsie? Edited November 1, 2022 by hoodooznoodooz 2 Link to comment

snarts November 1, 2022 Share November 1, 2022 Sure, Victoria is a bit self-centered but Emily sure seemed to be jonesing for mean girls take down pf her. The way she sat there smirking was little off-putting. Anya & Adja appear to be good hearted people who wanted resolution on the riff but the jury's still out on Emily. Plus, I'm sick to death of hearing about her family business. If it's so great, stay in Texas and work there. I was a little sad for Margaux. I thought the dresses were pretty and she just wanted her father to be proud of her. Maybe it was Paris but I enjoyed this season for the most part. Will there be a reunion? 3 4 Link to comment

TVForever November 1, 2022 Share November 1, 2022 (edited) I really liked the show, even if I didn't like every single moment. I hope we get another season, and I actually hope Kacey is there. I thought that she represented a lot of twenty-somethings that I've known--sweet, a little flaky, making plenty of dumb mistakes as she figures things out. Not everyone is a type-A like Anya, Adja, and Victoria (all of whom I also love!) In fact, Margaux is a bit like Kacey--nice girl, but really unfocused. She just has the benefit of not having to worry about money yet. I can understand where her father was coming from: I'm sure he was happy for her effort, but I suspect he's seen a lot of her big ideas flash and fizzle. As for Emily and her mother's business, I can't help but wonder why anyone in Paris would need to use a fabrication workroom all the way in New York? I mean, it's Paris-- I can't imagine there aren't plenty of top-flight fabrication shops there! Maybe they're aiming to be the go-to for Paris- companies doing work in the US. Emily didn't make it clear, and I was head-scratching wondering why her mother and two brothers needed to fly all the way to Paris to hang sheer drapes?! I'll be interested to see how Victoria's path with the Chloe Colette is progressing. But that one has got to tone down the histrionics. I thought she was going to start tossing drinks at Emily. And Mama Anya to watch over them all. Would love to see her get married! And most of all, more Paris! Edited November 1, 2022 by TVForever 2 3 Link to comment
