Ms Blue Jay March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 (edited) I'm so freaking happy yessssssssssssssssssssss! Dmitry is so freaking arrogant it's getting unbelievable. Does he ever take a criticism, or listen to anyone else, or does he just always do whatever he wants to do because he doesn't care, and expects to win anyway? LOL. My order was 1. Michelle, and trust me, she's far from my favourite personality (her accent for one... aggggh) 2. Dmitry, but there was a big gap between 1 and 2 3. Biddell, I like him but this was an Alexander McQueen rip off 4. Irina. I'm really happy with the outcome, yay! Edited March 28, 2019 by Ms Blue Jay 1 11 Link to comment

I don't think it's so much that he's style challenged (although he has his bad moments), it's that he gets fixated on one of the contestants and then is blinded to anything else. It's like when you're a teenager and you get a big crush on someone. Your crush can do no wrong, you have eyes for no one else, and all common sense is out the window. Did you hear Michelle say that she was hoping that winning the competition would save her marriage? Holy moley, that's unrealistic and freakin pitiful.

nokat March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 Wasn't Michelle's win a given? Producer driven win. I really liked Bidell's first dress. As much as I hate Irina as a person, she did have some nice structural dresses. Dmitri is dressing vampires. I had to remind myself that this was filmed a couple years ago. 3 Link to comment
SHD March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 So was this whole All-Stars season a set-up to give struggling Michelle (a show favorite, for some reason) a win and some money? Seems like it. It's kind of ridiculous that the big INTERNATIONAL competition ended up with three US-show designers and a Canadian in the finale. The amount of underwear and bare body parts showing through was ridiculous, even for a runway show. 8 Link to comment
SuprSuprElevated March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 (edited) Not unlike GoldaVining, I didn't hate Michelle's collection as much as I wanted to thought I would. Biddell's (Evan's?) was my least favorite collection, though I thought his "showstopper' dress was sublime, and may have been my favorite garment in the final. I love Dmitri's tailoring and artistry, but I sort of thought his collection was a bit too...reserved? No question that the red jacket was amazing. In Irina's collection, I appreciated her originality an execution. Unlike the majority here, I didn't care for the white final look. Looked like lace karate uniform to me. I am having a difficult time actually placing the designers. If forced, I would have to choose: Dmitri Irina Michelle Biddell I have to say though, that the first three places were almost interchangeable to me.

Gloriosa March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 That black and white pantsuit of Irina's - what were they all salivating over? It reminded me of a karate outfit I sewed for my kid for Halloween. That's all I could see. Actually I thought all the collections were pretty great, and was glad the contestants were given the freedom to do what they wanted with them. 8 Link to comment
venycal March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 I'm so happy that Michelle won! 👍 I love her work in S11 but her designs in AS4 were not as good. Finally, this season she redeemed herself. A well-deserved win. 👍👍👍 My Finale Collection Ranking:- 1] Michelle - The design/colour palette is fresh and creative. I LOVE the final piece and it is definitely the best piece of the night. Her designs utilize various fabrics/textures and it works really well. There are many great pieces and I like all of the looks! - 2] Dmitry - Out of the four designers, he does not have the freshest idea IMO. The idea is plain/standard and not inspiring [architectural/graphics and drawing faces?]. However, his execution is impeccable. The work done for the red jacket is extraordinary. I like this collection a lot even though it does not have the freshest idea. 3/4] Biddell - I couldn't decide Biddell or Irina has the better collection between the two. I love Biddell's idea, Regal Reptilian. It's crazy but undeniably interesting. The proportion of some of the pieces, however, is not good. I love his final piece though, that metallic fabric texture is gorgeous. 3/4] Irina - Before watching the episode, I thought she would slayed the other three designers. Her designs are always dramatic. However, this collection lacks impact which surprises me. I like the idea of 3D sculptures but the end product is underwhelming. The judges rave the last two looks but I thought the black top is quite messy. This collection lacks standout pieces that it needs unfortunately. 8 Link to comment

BusyOctober March 28, 2019 Share March 28, 2019 Michelle is, was and always will be the WORST person. Yet I knew she'd be the "winner" of this sad, sad season. It was lame duck waddling down the runway in two year old, past their sell-by date clothes. Goodbye, good riddance, and on to Bravo for a refreshed take on what was already a great show on that network. A few random thoughts... Why did Alyssa use so much eye makeup for the final runway ? Was she trying to smuggle out all the free "London Butter" product on her own face, episode by episode before the movers came to pack everything up? Final guest judge - Alyssa's intro -famous/award winning actress/blahblah....Me- who??? Michelle's sob story about her financial difficulties. Yah, boo effin' hoo. So many artists and creative people work several non-arty jobs to support themselves while working toward their dreams. However, Michelle has had MULTIPLE exposures to the world of fashion over the years, unlike hundreds of thousands of other designers. Maybe the world of fashion just isn't interested in her stuff enough to make her a super star and wealthy? Other than Isaac Mizrahi's on-camera lavish praise, has anyone with fashion cachet reached out to Michelle? Maybe still design & be creative and live in the realm of fashion, but if bills gotta be paid and your family needs food on the table, focus on that for a while? UGH...horrible season. Mostly unmemorable designs. Uninspired (unclaimed???) "prizes". Meh to the "winner". 1 16 Link to comment

No, it’s not ideal but that’s what happens when you have bills to pay and you can’t afford to quit your job in order to do what you love full time. I can’t feel bad for Michelle when many of the people I know are far more talented (and less annoying) than she is. Cry me a fucking river. 11 Link to comment

I was disgusted with Michelle this entire season and then disgusted with myself for liking her finale collection. But it's true, I liked it (a lot) and I'm happy with the judges awarding her the win. I think her entire collection was lovely (although I hate the "cold shoulder" trend in real life), but just like some of the judges, I felt the first and last looks were beyond beautiful. I have been rooting for Biddell all season, but I didn't love anything about his collection. Irina's was fine, I guess, if you like little 3D triangles, except for the last look (the white lace suit) which was stunning (and had no 3D triangles and didn't feel like part of her collection at all). I did not like Dimitry's looks. I think his collection looked like the "Suzanne Sugarbaker Collection". His outfits looked like something Suzanne Sugarbaker would love to wear to a red carpet event. So 80's and not in a good way. Is there a good way? Ugh. This! Not a huge Michelle fan, but I thought her collection was the best. I've thought that Dimitry's clothes have looked old all season. I did like his first look (red face jacket and mesh tuxedo striped pants) and the beaded one was fine, but the exaggerated shoulder pads and mustard dress just seemed so dated to me. I would have put him 3rd I wanted to like Biddell because I think that he (along with most of the international contestants) got the shaft this season, but I think the judges call on his looks was spot on. It wasn't wild enough and well enough constructed to win. (I did like that first dress though.) I would have put him 4th. Irina would have been my runner up. I don't like her call girl aesthetic, but I think she has construction skills and her use of triangles was interesting, cohesive and impressive. Still, for me, the felt dresses seemed heavy. 9 Link to comment

Winners of reality television shows usually can't collect their prizes until the show actually airs, so she has been waiting a long time, and after taxes she will have significantly less money. There were more good collections than there usually are on a Project Runway finale, and I would have been OK with several outcomes. When Michelle and Dmitry were both spared elimination last week, I figured the judges wanted one of them to win, but I was rooting for Irina. She had a few missteps throughout the competition, but had more high scores overall than anyone else. I love her craftsmanship and how focused and driven she is. Even without the win, I trust she will be fine; she's very talented and is one of the few PR alums who still shows regularly at NYFW. On a very sad note, her mother passed away from cancer less than a year after this episode was taped--Irina posted about it on Instagram. She was only 56. Overall, I am relieved Project Runway All Stars has come to an end, and hope Bravo doesn't rush to revive it. Seven seasons over eight years was much too much, and watered down the value of the PR brand. If the show does come back, I hope it's with a new judging panel, and that they only do one season every few years. Edited March 28, 2019 by ThatsDarling 10 Link to comment

But saying you should have won because yours was a "masterpiece" and the other collection wasn't close? Meh, that's a little sore loser bullshit to me. 3 Link to comment
