Project Runway – episode #2 – sweet or sour?

I never figured myself for a Project Runway devotee. While I LOVE fashion, I’m not a huge fan of competing in the world of art. I believe that one creates for the sake of the art and to fulfill a need inside, not to compete against other artists. Of course, my theories flew straight out the window as I got to listen to Tim Gunn’s words of wisdom and watch what the real world of fashion design looks like from an outsider’s perspective. So, here I am HOOKED like a coiled frog on the front of a cheongsam.

What does this all mean to YOU? It means that Champagne Living is going to have sneak peek’s into each episode BEFORE it airs, as well as the 411 of what’s going on behind the scenes for YOU!

This Thursday’s episode will feature some of our new favorites including: The social butterfly (Buffi), The snob (Lantie), The hothead (Elena), The stoic (Ven), The peacekeeper (Sonjia), The grandma (Andrea)

My question is: Will we see some SWEET designs or will it be a bittersweet end for one of your faves?

So – who’s the designer that YOU’D like to see win this season?

For more information, including WHEN Project Runway is on where YOU live, check out Lifetime TV.

I wrote this as a participant in the Project Runway Fashion Blogger Network. I hope that you’ll follow along and have fun as we talk about which designers we love, hate, and would stand in line to buy their designs.

    I don’t have access to cable anymore so I don’t watch … but this does sound like an interesting challenge!

    I LOVE Project Runway but I’ve missed the start of this season. I need to go back and catch up.

    I just finished watching the last season on Hulu. I love Project Runway and guess I will have to catch up on this season now.

    I’m pretty much obsessed with Project Runway. OB-SESSED. I think the ep will be sweet!

    No idea who is going to win but I know I have a couple I am rooting for!

    I’m behind, too. I need some DVR catch up! 🙂

    You can catch the previous episodes online!

    I have never seen this show, assuming it is about fashion that is all I know. But I’m intrigued.

  9. Zipporah says

    July 25, 2012 at 6:05 pm

    LOL – once you start you get hooked Kate.

    This is a show I don’t watch all of the time but your comments make me want to be sure to catch the next episode!

  11. Zipporah says

    July 25, 2012 at 6:14 pm

    It’s fashion designers competing against each other. Some of the stuff they come up with is GREAT, other things…MEH.

  12. Annie says

    July 25, 2012 at 8:44 pm

    I will admit – this is one show I just cannot get into. I think it is because I don’t understand fashion. I need a friend to teach me basics LOL

  13. Jen @ BigBinder says

    I am pretty hopeless in the fashion area, but it’s so fun to see how creative the designers are!

    Can you believe I’ve never seen the show???

    I haven’t watched this season yet but if their personal looks are anything like what they are producing they need new designers lol

    I have watched this a few times but haven’t seen it lately. What really stands out in my mind was a few seasons back they had a contestant named Santino that was doing impressions of Tim Gunn. That’s what always stands out in my mind about this show.

  17. Mandy says

    I love this show, but haven’t gotten a chance to catch up on it this season. I will definitely be checking it out.

  18. Nicole Robinson says

    I have to confess, I have never watched Project Runway. My girlfriends tell me that I’m missing out. I’m scared to get hooked on another show. And the people I cheer for almost never win.

  19. Crystal @ Simply Being Mommy says

    While I love fashion, I really don’t get the fashion on this show. I don’t think they’ve ever created something that I’d actually wear LOL!

  20. Our Small Hours says

    No opinion on who will win, but what a fun challenge.

  21. Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell says

    July 26, 2012 at 6:48 pm

    Oh no, I didn’t know the new season had started! Eeeks, gotta catch up!

  22. Emily says

    I love Project Runway, but haven’t watched this season. This episode looks fun!

    I haven’t watched Project Runway in a few years. Maybe I should start again!

  24. Zipporah says

    July 29, 2012 at 9:02 am

    It gets addictive!!!

  25. Zipporah says

    July 29, 2012 at 9:03 am

    I can’t imagine using CANDY to create clothing with.

    I used to LOVE Project Runway but I know the last time I watched it I was literally in labor with my first child!

    So…I guess I don’t have a preference for who will win, but thanks for the reminder that the show is still on and still fantastic. I’ll have to check it out!

    Never watched Project Runway, but sounds like a cool show for fashion lovers.

  28. Zipporah says

    August 6, 2012 at 9:15 pm

    It’s a lot of fun and it’s amazing to see the inspiration that goes into creating a wardrobe.

    LOL – You crack me up MaryBeth.
