(And I really wanted a good look at those pants! They got the endorsement of “cool” from Christian!) Anyway, I can see enough to know this is a solid ensemble, one that might not nab a top spot but should see Korto through to the next round.

The shimmering silver brocade is pretty, but the surrounding darkness prevents a clear view of what’s going on underneath it. Even with the spotlights glaring on the park sidewalk, I’m squinting to make out the details of Korto’s robe, sweater and trousers. Korto: I’m not a huge fan of this week’s outdoor set-up.Ahead, a few thoughts on this week’s designs: When the sky opens up, Christian quickly declares, “Okay, I need to go,” but worry not! He survives the shower and returns in time to sit beside Elaine, Nina, and Brandon as darkness descends and the runway show begins. The clouds overhead signal trouble, and practically none of these looks are what I’d describe as weather-appropriate. Bishme’s justification is as delightful as his grin: “I love messing with Christian, because low key, he stresses me out sometimes.”Īnd Christian is stressed, y’all, especially as the group descends on the park.

“That is not the gown,” Christian deduces, and proceeds to search the entire workroom for the ruffles, which he uncovers stuffed beside a mirror. (A bold move, but one I respect.) As the group prepares to shuttle their models to the park, Bishme hides his chocolate-brown satin ruffles and insists he only had time to make a pair of underwear instead. Thankfully, Prajje decides not to start a fracas between him and Brittany, and everyone makes it to the next morning as friends.Īs Christian floats amongst the designers, sprinkling them with editing tips (Kara Saun’s over-the-top pastel train, in particular, earns his side eye), Bishme decides to play a prank on the PR mentor. And while, sure, the resemblance is there, I’m not sure Prajje would win a copyright battle that exact halter style is practically ubiquitous right now. The drama in the workroom is minimal this week-remember, there’s a storm brewing-but Prajje takes a moment to express his displeasure at an apparent copycat: Brittany’s stitched together a white criss-cross halter top similar to one he showcased in the ’90s-themed episode 6 challenge. Play icon The triangle icon that indicates to play In turn, Brittany goes for her athleisure signature Korto chooses a robe Bishme attaches a veil to a cap Laurence cuts a leather skirt and Rami picks a simple, elegant silk for an Oscars-worthy gown.

Everyone’s instructed to craft a garment that’s fully “them”: Kara Saun decides to draw inspiration from the princess-like feel of her “ Fashion FairyGodmother” nonprofit, while Prajje opts for emerald-green fabrics in the mood of the snake-like Haitian Vodou spirit Damballa. So.y’know, make it work.Īnyway, our remaining designers have no way of knowing this development is approaching when Christian first informs them they have two days to “make whatever the hell you want.” (“You’re welcome,” he says, to which Prajje replies, “ You’re welcome!”) At Mood Fabrics, they have 30 minutes and $750 to stuff their bags with purple leather and feathers in Easter-candy hues. Also, your models will be toting umbrellas and trying not to teeter in their heels as a few shameless gusts tear through the tree-lined pavement of Franklin D. Turns out, the reward for making it to week 10 of Project Runway All-Stars season 20 is this: You get to design anything your heart so desires, but it must be trotted out into the dark in the pouring rain, where the judges will need to remove their spotlight-blocking sunglasses just to get a clear image of your work.
