FINALLY something to watch! -Project Runway

I don't watch many reality shows, so in the summer I am pretty much out of luck in regards to TV. Luckily, Project Runway Season 5 has begun! The first challenge was a "repeat challenge" of the very first episode in season 1. I think they are being reminiscent since this is the last season that will air on Bravo. The contestants were taken to a grocery store and were told to use items found there to fashion their garments.

Lets remember the fab dress that Austin Scarlett created 5 seasons ago out of corn husks....

It starts out with quite a few contestants, so it's pretty hard to pick a favorite. I agreed with the judges for the most part. Overall, I was pretty disappointed. (As were the judges.) I didn't see much creativity out there in regards to materials.

Here is the winning dress. I agreed with the judges. The bleach/dye job on that skirt really masked the materials. (Sort of the point of the challenge

Materials: Vacuum Bags, Thumb Tacks, Coffee Filters, Spiral Notebook

This was the "runner up." Kudos for the difficult material. I also caught a few glimpses of the items in his portfolio and I was very impressed. He's very glam. 

Materials: Plastic Cups

Here is one that didn't get much response from the judges, but that I really liked.

Materials: Floor Mops and Plastic Tablecloth

And of course the loser....Seriously? As the judges put it...it looks like something you would wear on your way to murder someone...

My apologies for not including the designer names. When it gets narrowed down a bit it will be easier to remember.
