leighdear November 18, 2017 Share November 18, 2017 Wendy was playing the game long before people even knew how to "play the game". Back in those days it was actually about the clothes. Now, there are usually several "Wendy's" cast every season, for the drama and conflict. She knew her stuff and made some beautiful things. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-3824181

It also has the very tired during the Finale photos we've all seen as well as, in the comments, a comment that said she had been diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer 5 months ago and recently, during treatment, contracted pneumonia. It didn't cite a source, so take that with a question mark. About Wendy in the Daily Mail This is the dress that got her to Fashion Week, a dress for Nancy ODell who said she didn't like sparkles near her face (and other designers had sparkly bodices. It is interesting the fairly minor difference between the PR dress and what was worn to the event. Yep, things have changed.

backgroundnoise November 18, 2017 Share November 18, 2017 Wendy didn't pretend to be scornful, she was scornful. She was also envious and deceitful. Her attempt at playing the game was to try to get others to befriend her and talk to her and then somehow use any confidences they gave her against them to "get them out of her way." The whole thing was ridiculous because the show was not set up in a way that designers could get each other auffed. So Wendy came off not only deceitful, but rather dim and pathetic. I think her actions were worthy of contempt. Some viewers thought she was some kind of a victim of the cool kids shunning the old lady, but I never saw that at all, quite the opposite, in fact. Austin and Kara Saun in particular thought her a good friend until she showed she couldn't be trusted. I've watched S1 many times and I saw that Kara Saun was still giving Wendy glad-you're-safe hugs up to and including the swim suit episode (episode 6, I think). The only one who didn't like Wendy much at all from the start was Vanessa.

Half the people in that first season went on because of their extensive background with outdoor camping and wilderness survival skills. We rarely get ANYONE like that anymore on Survivor. If she thought she was on Survivor, she did a pretty good job because she finished third and she was not nearly the third best designer there. Her machinations DID help her win because she made it to fashion week, which was a big deal at the time. The villain of that season was Kara Saun, Remember how she came up with those custom ordered shoes from Dollhouse and when questioned about it, she miraculously came up with receipts that charged her about $5 a pair? Who was the one who called her on it? Yup, Wendy. Thinking about it, I pulled up her takedown of Kara Saun and it deserves to be quoted in its entirety. “I'm going to tell you that Jay and I shopping at the store for five-dollar shoes is hardly comparable to you custom-designing shoes and putting an arbitrary value of five dollars on something that looks like your shoes. I just heard you on the phone equate a shoe at a sample sale for five dollars to a shoe you custom-designed and had made to your specifications, and that, my dear, is not fair or above board, Miss Perfect. It just shows how you're so f*cking morally corrupt and you walk around saying other people are all f*cked up but you're perfect; but it's okay for you to fudge when it works to your advantage, but God help anybody if they fudge for their advantage.” A fascinating and incredible moment in Reality TV where the self appointed villain reveals herself to have played the game fairly and the Moral Authority was a cheating hypocrite with dirty hands.

backgroundnoise November 21, 2017 Share November 21, 2017 We'll have to agree to disagree. To me, it's a matter of intent. Wendy came into the competition plotting to deceive from day one, and never deviated from that, even after people did befriend her and were genuinely happy for her Banana Republic win. This just wasn't the kind of competition where that was appropriate. Kara Saun had one bad day. Kara Saun handled the shoe-thing badly, but she didn't go into it intending to deceive anyone--she was far too open about where she got the shoes for that. Yes, she acted entitled when called on the shoes (and I don't think she should have been able to keep them without giving up something else), but that doesn't make her the season's villain, IMO, not compared to Wendy's deliberate deceit. YMMV. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-3832141

I agree--if you can't even open up gifts from your sister because of your issues, some therapy is called for. I was flabbergasted at his description of the judges and how (and why) he can't stand them. Zac Posen certainly started off on the wrong foot with him, I must say. I always thought that he and Heidi, at least got along well, but he obviously views her as quite entitled. Interesting to read where and why they suddenly decided to have the judges look close up and personal at the top three and bottom looks. And he called out Nina for her somewhat whackadoodle personal clothing choices over the past couple of years. It seems like Michael Kors may have been the judge that he respected the most--he didn't rake him over the coals, at least. It was a VERY revealing interview, for those who haven't listened to it. Definitely not discrete about his feelings. And to be totally fair, as much as he slammed the judges, he was pretty honest about his own personal failings as a person, as well.

They were "super" because they were runway, print,media AND dated rockstars. Today they're considered "super" if they know a Kardashian or have been in a Taylor Swift video. The bar is set VERY low these days. About like their IQ's. It's weird to me that a major topic in this thread is the degradation of women, actors, and models and you come into this thread to claim that models are unintelligent. That is based on nothing except maybe some hack stand up comedy from the 80s? Also I believe Karlie Kloss is an established model or even supermodel in her own right, completely separate from her friendship with Taylor. Other than that not sure who you are referring to. You should read about Sara Ziff who founded the Model Alliance. I brought her up without knowing she graduated magna cum laude from Columbia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sara_Ziff "In 2012, she formed the Model Alliance, a non-profit organization that advocates for fair labor standards for models working in the American fashion industry. In 2013, under Ziff's leadership, the Model Alliance championed the Child Model Act in New York State, which reclassified models under 18 as child performers and extended them basic labor protections, including provisions for educational requirements, maximum working hours, and trust accounts." There's also Sasha Pivovarova, longtime Prada muse who is also an artist in her spare time. You can tell that she's an artist by the ultra creative way that she models. https://www.google.ca/searchq=sasha+pivovarova+art&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwit5--Qt4LaAhUJS6wKHXbrCgMQ_AUICigB&biw=1248&bih=657 One of my favourites is Natalia Vodianova, who's done so much philanthropy with her money it's too much to discuss here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natalia_Vodianova Anyway, just because an article writer mistakenly typed "supermodels" instead of "models" to refer to the models of PR, does not mean, in my opinion, that we should put down all models to make a point. They are still people. There is also zero way I agree with any of Harvey's tactics or having women wear Marchesa to promote his wife's brand and/or intimidate actors. Actors have always either worn a designer gown that was chosen for them by a stylist, or specifically a designer that they have a contract with (Margot Robbie just signed with Chanel, Jennifer Lawrence has been with Dior for awhile). As for why Felicity Huffman chose that Marchesa, it was more likely chosen for her. Stylists, or designers or whomever send over a rack of clothing and the gown is chosen from there, from what I understand. It's not like you have everything under the sun always available to you to wear. Usually actors wear whatever was just or will be shown during the latest season. Sometimes celebrities pull off wearing a Dior by Galliano from 2003 or a Tom Ford for Gucci from the late 90s, but I have no idea how. Special permissions, I assume.

"Thanks Lifetime.com!" ;- ) Edited May 15, 2018 by Fiero425 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4325076

Yeah, me neither. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4325526
nb360 May 15, 2018 Share May 15, 2018 SO glad PR is returning to Bravo! I hope this means the guest judges will be upscaled as well. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4326056
Lamb18 May 15, 2018 Share May 15, 2018 I hope Magical Elves will be the producers again. If they are, the show should be OK. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4326679

Wasn't the story that Heidi took the idea to Harvey W and that she had an interest (money meaning) in the whole franchise? Also aren't there two series of PR in the can already, one regular strength, one all stars? If so, how could the producers change from BM to Magical Elves? I may be totally wrong about these as it's been a while and there's no official source for info in any of this. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4327421

I may be totally wrong about these as it's been a while and there's no official source for info in any of this. One reason Heidi gave to change networks is she wanted the filming to be done in CA, where she lived. Apparently that was not possible on Bravo. I have not heard that Weinstein was involved but that is a moot point now. Whatever reason, the quality of the show changed dramatically with the move to Lifetime. There was some discussion that Heidi was spread too thin in her life and PR was no longer her baby. I believe that was part of it. Once the creator loses passion and delegates responsibility to others, this happens. I am hopeful that we see a change back to a better show. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4327571

Lamb18 May 15, 2018 Share May 15, 2018 I don't know anything about whether Heidi took the idea to Weinstein, but Magical Elves, of course, could not used for seasons that are already filmed and edited; but they could for future seasons. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4327690
chitowngirl May 15, 2018 Share May 15, 2018 Wasn’t there a kerfuffle when they moved to Lifetime because there was a Bravo season in the can and they didn’t want to air it on Lifetime? 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4861-project-runway-in-the-media/page/8/#findComment-4327753
