Trash Project Runway Starts Tonight!
Warning: This post contains massive amounts of geeking out over Project Runway.
Okay, so I watched last night’s “Road to the Runway,ā€¯ where Bravo introduced the 15 designers starring in the brand new season of Project Runway (which starts tonight at 10 pm!), and I already have my season crush all picked out: Bradley Baumkirchner.
I know, I know, he’s not nearly as adorable as Danny V., but his audition tape was really funny and his design book and sample clothes were super cute! His colorful, vintage-inspired pieces looked a little geeky (hot librarian-style), but were also still really classic and charming… Check out this dress from his Fall ‘06 collection. (You can see more of his work here.)
Besides all that, he also has a great smile. You don’t see it in the pictures, but it’s there. Just watch tonight to see. Now some blogs are saying he’s boring and will be one of the first to go. Bastards! They might be right, as I’m terrible at predictions, but if I had to guess I’d say he’s gonna be that quiet and super-talented one who surprises everybody. Sorta like Chloe, who won last season, might I remind you.
I’m also rooting for Vincent (I like the crazies) and Katherine. Though I doubt the latter will get very far. And they’ll keep that pretty girl for awhile, ‘cause people appreciate the presence of a pretty girl.
That Malan is trouble, though, I’ll tell you that much. I also don’t trust that mother of five with the insanely bright lipstick. And Jeffrey, the token rocker dude, seems to be aching to settle into the role of the new Santino.
Man! I can’t wait until 10 pm! (And yes, I’m aware it’s slightly—okay, very—pathetic.)
Haven't seen the pre-show yet, but I've also picked Bradley as my crush too! I based that on scanning the pictures from the website even though they are really horrible shots of everyone, models included. Yuck!
Can't wait for tonight though!
