After all, Heather has done nothing to encourage Dorinda's involvement in her affairs. Dorinda just foisted upon Heather her yappings, instructions, and "opinions". No invitation. No summons. Dorinda entrenched the "nice just doesn't work with you (bitches)" by rancorously DIMWITwittering about Heather con-stant-ly. Talk about a coarse individual--thy name is DORINDA MEDdle(some, ling..).

breezy424 August 3, 2015 Share August 3, 2015 How can you select a model without seeing the clothes she will be wearing? Way back when, I used to be involved with interviewing models for a national magazine fashion section as well as for a publicity firm. You have to see how their coloring and body shape will work with the color and fit of the clothes they will be wearing. Sonja and her 'people' did looked like amateurs. Also, you try to reserve your judgements after you look at the model. Most often, you look at their portfolio, you look at them, have them turn, have them walk (in the case of doing runway), you might have them hold up a garment against them to see if color works. You say thank you and then discuss. 8 Link to comment
Tara Ariano August 3, 2015 Share August 3, 2015 Quote It's Fashion Week and (mis)adventures abound. Here, models are chosen for Sonja's fashion show; an excited Kristen hopes to debut her nail-polish line; and chaos spills out along the runway at Sonja's show, where Ramona tries to run away from the runway.

You say thank you and then discuss. Exactly. I think she just looked a bit out of her element. Heather won't ever win with Sonja. If she tries to point out the obvious, that she needs to understand the clothes before she can effectively give advice on the models, it will look like she is trying to take over and make Sonja look stupid. Sonja isn't really looking for help. She is looking for someone to come in and tell her that she is awesome and she is all over it. It will be interesting, because I imagine that Heather will take the brunt of Sonja's criticism, even though Beth will be right with Heather and agreeing with her on something that Heather knows a lot about. This is the thing I dig about Beth and the reason she can stay next season as far as I am concerned. She can be harsh, and she can jump to conclusions quickly, but she is able to self-reflect and admit when someone knows their stuff. She will give credit where credit is due. She is the one who recommended to Sonja way back at the beginning of the season that she needed to involve Heather, and that was when she didn't think much of Heather's personality. She got that Heather would have something crucial to offer, even if she didn't really like her. That is a quality that I like in a person. It is often hard to stand back and give someone credit for anything when you don't like them. 15 Link to comment

Not everyone shops the RH products for value. Lisa Vanderpump was selling some household accessories that were higher than the norm. These women all trot around in red souled shoes that regularly go for more than $1,000.00 a pair. Sonja said she would come up with a fashion line, have it at fashion week and she did. Judging from the video it was well received. Whether or not she hit it out of the park is irrelevant-her two faced friends, two thirds of them who apologized to her not too terribly long ago, are sitting around making cracks about her right before her show. That is the story not whether or not her line is successful. The two faces only prove what Sonja has been saying she doesn't need friends like these women. Just because Sonja doesn't want a value line doesn't mean she can't be successful. What won't happen with her marketing plan is seeing her clothes at TJMaxx or Ross or Marshall's where one sees a lot of Yummie and Skinny Girl products. People have posted time and time again the successful gals have a lot of product that ends up in close out bins. I don't think you can compare Heather's business success to any of the NY housewives. Before Heather was on RHONY she was already internationally known in the business, 2008 Oprah listed Yummie's tank as one of her favorite things, Heather was already in Nordstrom. Now she is in both Bloomingdale's and Nordstrom... plus you can buy online via her site and many others. Beth got lucky and the show helped her in launching Skinny Girl. With all that said even as well known as Heather and Yummie are I would never spend $1,500 on ANY housewife product. To me it looks like Sonja is in way over head and how well does she even know these backers? It looks kinda shady and unprofessional to me. Edited August 4, 2015 by BeachyMum 13 Link to comment

I remember seeing him on an episode of "Project Runway" and he was a wonderful guest judge. No snark, very complimentary when he could be, and offered real constructive criticism and sound advice when that was needed. Sonja's fashion line is nice, but nothing special. I think she, too, has designed "for the masses, not the classes", much the same way as Luann's line. The only difference is price. Sonja's seem overpriced to me.

Sounds like both Heather and Bethenny were told it was something other than what it was. I also noticed that Sonja got mad at Heather for what Bethenny said and refused to back off Heather even when Bethenny admitted she said it not Heather. Why do I get the feeling that Sonja was trying to make Heather look bad on purpose and hoped Bethenny would help her do it?!? 28 Link to comment
