Project runway season 7 episode 12 part 1 series#

Throughout the season, Bishme has presented unique and breathtaking designs. However, I always thought that the slate was wiped clean after a runway show and the winner of the finale would be the designer who presented the most inspired collection. There was no doubt that the three strongest designers made the final round. Last night’s finale of Project Runway was a complete disappointment.

I hope PR is on Bravo again next year instead of streaming so we can all watch! I will never understand what these judges are looking for, but that’s what makes it so interesting! Bishme should NOT have won. It seems like since they didn’t like her purple outfit, they threw the whole collection out. I’m not an athleisure fan but her outfits were super cute! Laurance should have won. Many people don’t like Brittney, but I thought her collection was the most cohesive. And yes, it is weird that Brandon could not show up for the grand finale, I think he did not agree with the outcome. They judged him solely on the “anxiety dress” (and the outstanding model) which was not unique. The white dresses were boring, and the fringed red plaid things looked like kilts I wore in 7th grade. Now, I was rooting for Bishme, but when his collection came out, I said “sorry Bishme but you are not going to win”. First of all, I’d like to say, I cannot believe they each created 8 outfits in only 8 days that seems impossible. And that designer was… Bishme!ĭon’t understand. Though they were familiar with Laurence’s previous leather work, the judges were excited to see a new side of her, one that was “elegant and sophisticated,” one that incorporated, “joy, poetry and romance.”īut only one designer could walk away from this finale with the $250,000 cash prize, the mentorship with the CFDA and the spread in Elle magazine. With Fabio Costa back to lend her a hand, Brittany leaned into her passion for athleisure, settling on a collection she likened to “activewear as high fashion,” which she acknowledged was “risky.” That risk ended up paying off, with the judges calling her designs “magical” and “cohesive” with “phenomenal styling.” Zac’s comment about the outfits looking “a little costume” off the runway, however, probably didn’t feel too great.Īnd Laurence, inspired by Paris, used different fabrics and bold colors to marry elements of masculinity and femininity. Overwhelmed with sadness and anxiety, Bishme was ready to call it quits ahead of the big presentation, but Prajjé Oscar Jean-Baptiste - whom Bishme chose as his finale assistant without a moment’s hesitation - pushed him to focus on the goal and honor his late sister.Īnd it’s a good thing Bishme stuck around, because the judges loved his “inspiring, sophisticated” collection, especially his so-called “Anxiety Dress,” which told a powerful story of perseverance. Let’s start with Bishme, whose grief-inspired collection nearly didn’t make it onto the runway at all. Wendy Pepper, in the same year, competed in the second season of the All Stars edition placing 12th out of 13.Minx Finale Recap: Joyce Goes to War, Doug Goes to Bed With - Plus, Grade It! McCaroll later turned down both the $100,000 and the mentorship with Banana Republic, stating that the prizes came with too much contractual baggage.Īustin Scarlett later appeared in Project Runway: All Stars in 2012, where he finished runner-up. The winning model of the first season, selected by McCarroll, was Julia Beynon. As his prize for winning the competition among 12 designers, McCarroll won $100,000, a mentorship with Banana Republic to aid in developing his own fashion label, and a feature of his work in the American edition of ELLE magazine.

The winning designer of the first season was Pennsylvania-based designer Jay McCarroll.
