We can see where this is going… ‘Project Runway All Stars’ Recap — Season 4, Episode 11: Always A Bridesmaid: Each designer is issued a Knee Length A Line Bridesmaid Dress and must design a dress that she can wear to the wedding — and then recycle for another event after the ceremony. The designers get to speak to the bride to see her mood board before they begin sketching in the shop. After that, they’ll head off to Mood with a budget of $150. To increase the bar, this week the designers are competing for a major prize, which includes glassware and chinaware by Marchesa for Lenox and a band from the new Marchesa Endless collection. The winner and a guest will sit front line at the Marchesa show and have VIP access to the fashion event — it is a true Marchesa experience!
The catch? Wedding ceremony is tomorrow and Alyssa Milano is officiating wedding ceremony on the runway! Now this is a new first. Sonjia’s Meltdown: Sonjia has a complete meltdown at dinner. She was so quiet before she burst out into tears — the pressure is definitely building, and it looks like she allow it to all get to her. All day it has been growing, as she always been stumped at the Marchesa studio room. Take a cue from Elsa and just overlooked, girl. The bridesmaids come in for their first fitting and get to meet the designers — and luckily everyone seems more or less pleased with their models! Next, Zanna comes in and will be offering up her review — and she isn’t alone! Georgina’s brother, Ed Chapman, (the CEO of Marchesa), comes to check out what the designers have thought up. Ed and Zanna invigorate the designers to elevate their projects and keep the romantic, ethereal aesthetic of Marchesa in mind.
Although Sonjia was a ball of nerves, she actually draped her dress beautifully — and she tied it all together with beautiful trim that Fabio credited her. I was surprised by how kind the designers are increasingly being with one another and how they help each other out — that’s usually not a natural in the workroom. Runway Day: Overall the family court judges seemed a bit disappointed in what came down the runway — those they expected to shine chop down flat. “I’m sort of baffled…I don’t know who any of you are this week, ” Isaac said. Ouch — leave it to him to speak the truth! Helen’s dress was classic and rewearable, but a bit boring in my opinion. Dmitry is always on top of his game, but his dress was bland — it seemed like every other bridesmaid dress out there. I definitely expected more creativity from him.
Why do dresses have to be so dreadfully boring? Rest. Personally, I really loved the interesting cut of the sleeve and the use of appliques in Fabio’s design. Sure, the hem must be finished off a bit better, but I thought he mention to the Marchesa aesthetic with the describing and I really do think he tried his best, considering he is usually in the bottom of the bat berrel. The Winner & Loser: Sonjia and Sally had the highest scores — and although Helen’s have also been missing something, it was executed perfectly and it was very wearable — and she wins task! Dmitry has a low score but is safe. Michelle and, (surprise, surprise), Fabio are in the bottom two — and Fabio is sent home. Although personally I thought the performance of Michelle’s dress definitely needed work, Fabio’s consistent below average behavior sent him providing. I’m bummed cause I really do feel like he tried this week — but I guess this isn’t a charity case.
