I know that many ordinary people will probably love this challenge but I have a strong feeling this challege will be a big bore. What is fascinating or fashionable about the everyday woman? I guess it will show their range as designers but still I smell a snooze fest.

Am I the only person here who doesn't care for Martha Stewart? lol
I am so ashamed at how much I love Martha Stewart. I kill every plant I touch,can cook but nothing like her,cant sew to save my life and althougth I was planning on going to art school and took every art class offered any skills I had are gone. I am so not Martha but wanna be. Well, not the going to jail part.
Grills ready,grab a burger.

Don't feel bad...I have most her magazines. I don't think she's necessarily a nice or accessible woman but she's smart. And I think she's done wonders for uplifting the job of the "stay at home woman" She shows that it is hard work and a lot to do...As a stay at home mom, I am not even close to cleaning out closets and planting the mums at tht right time but I do think she shows others our value...
As far as Doris Day, she's at home with her many pets as far as I know and has no interest in coming back into the public eye (I just saw a thing on her on AMC). No, this everyday woman thing is goind to be interesting...I'm still not sure that it's one woman. Besides all this speculation isn't taking one hint into consideration: when the shadow appeared on the screen the person was shorter and pearshaped and I actually think I remember what looked like laced cuffs coming out of the bottom of the jacket sleeve...a look I don't think any of the suggested women would wear...just MO.
legend? alot of us are everyday women going to work, taking care of the kids, doing the grocery shopping,etc. lol. We can't all be rich sitting at home eating bon-bons and hosting charity events, going out for dinner every night etc.

Well as an everyday woman I'd like to see what these designers think I should be wearing...it hold a ton of potentail humour for me...

God, I need to take time and read these before I post them or maybe I just need to learn how to spell...p

Gina I respect the working woman and what she does for her family, I could never see myself doing that but thats just my preference. But PR is about fashion, not slippers and moo moo's.

Yum.....burgers are ready!!!! *smile*
On the MS side of this discussion.....I've never been much into her stuff....what I want to know about this kind of thing I learned early from my mom, and between family, part-time job, and starting a business am more like Erma Bombeck that Martha LOL!
Though I will admit that one of my kid sisters adores Martha and is a Martha wannabe. Course...she has no kids, but does have a pretty responsible job, a very cool hubby, along with (at last count) a cat, bunches of birds, and one very pampered yorkie whom we all love!!!
Back on topic (sort of) is the consensus still running towards something involving Martha Stewart, as in designing directly for, or with her as a judge????
PS: Speaking of my Mom, boy would she berate me for forgetting my manners....Brillke, thank you for the "ongerful" burger, the "extradeluscious burger" and it's great to see you here....have some punch and salsa and chips!!!
*taking plate and heading back to the margins*
they shouldn't have kicked off allison.
though her dress was bad, she showed before in previous challenges that she has what it takes. vincent's dress looked exactly what it was --- shredded pieces of paper slapped on trash with glue and glitter.
shame on you judges!

Hey I'll have you know I'm a very fashionable mom no slippers and moo moo's here...try ugg boots and a hand knit cable sweater. Thank you!
So if you'll never be a mom...what are your plans?
and fashion is for all not just the rich, that is why some famous designers now design lines for stores like K-Mart, Target, etc.

I agree. NONE of us know how they edit this. So we have no idea why Laura and Vincent were at each other. Obviously, it was put it in for viewing becuase it was nice and catty but we can't act like we are there and we know what's really up. I favored Laura's dress but nothing really wowed me tonight. Everyone is talking about jumping ship because they don't like how so and so was robbed but--Come On!!--you won't. It's too much fun to watch!
It's really not. Not for people who are really into fashion, people who normally DO NOT watch any reality TV. You know people with a brain.

Effective Immediately:
We demand the swift and harsh removal of Heidi Klum and her taste (such taste I would designate as bad, but cannot bring myself to even give her taste that much credit).
If you are addressing those comments to the Executive Producer of Project Runway, that would be Heidi Klum.
HYSTERICAL!
But I will mention that I saw what I assume was a rerun of "Who Wants to be a Millionare" with Heidi as a celeb contestant. The question was about a designer who won a gazillion awards for costume design. Now I don't consider myself any kind of fashion expert or showbiz expert, but I knew the answer was Edith Head, and Heidi didn't even RECOGNIZE the name.
Made me question how much fashion background she has. Aside from wearing it, what does she know about history, construction, design yada yada. Prior to that I gave her more credit. Now I wonder.
LMAO and crying a little inside at the same time!

OMG! She is entitled to her opinion....no matter how wrong it is...LOL!
I just read that little article up in the corner about Hiedi and Seal's children. I didn't know there names but this is funny
"and have a 10-month-old son, Henry Guenther Ademola Dashtu Samuel, as well as a two-year-old daughter, Leni"
Do you think the daughter feels neglected for lack of 4 names? )

Read Tims take and listen to his podcast. It explains the tension.

Oh, and about the Pet Fashion Show, my hometown has one every year...only ours is a "haute dog" parade...it is super cute. Everyone brings out their dogs in Halloween costumes and parades them up and down Main Street.

Yes, she was the basis of that character loosly. She was Hollywood fashion, definately someone to idiolize.
I love the life I lead to much to have children, I don't think it would be fair to them. My husband doesn't particular like kids. He thinks they are a liability.

I think there are enough "personalities" among the contestants to make an interesting show even if the challenge is about making more "working woman" or "professional woman" clothing. That's such a huge market, and there are very successful designers in this market as well.
The challenge is to make the garments look really good, but using materials that will be durable and using a design that is uncomplicated enough that it can be mass-produced cost-effectively. Even garments that aren't "top glam" or exclusive pieces can still take a lot of talent to design.
And if Martha Stewart is involved, it will be anything BUT a snoozefest.

I wouldn't get too upset about Heidi's comments. One should never lose sight of the fact that she is there because of her looks, not her brains. She is never paid for her brains, even if a judge and I have often thought it odd that no one complained that she was a judge.
I believe Heidi of Project Runway, was one of the originators of the entire idea is one of the producers, and owns a piece of the action.
dont get it twisted....you really think she "was one of the originators of the entire idea".....shes not that smart....there is a reason shes a model
There is also a reason why she was once a poor girl in Germany and now an extremely rich woman in the US of A. Hello, are we trashing "dumb blondes"? I don't think she qualifies.
No she doesn't qualify but we all know she got her idea from Ms Tyra banks. Tyra is smart sexy and successful. Her show Americas Next Top Model is HUGE and Heidi just spun the idea and came up with an America's next top Fashion Designer show.

Wow, that's actually a very fair choice if that's the way each of you feels. So what do you do with yourself? You mentioned something about fashion earlier? (if this is to nosey and you don't want to post it's ok...I'm not trying to pry ))
thanks damsel, do i just go to itunes.com?
ok I have the podcast but it only goes up to episode 5, how do I get 6?

She has one in Germany as well, i don't know which came first but she is making her money...And there was a post earlier about her VS ad and her not being called the BODY ( I know you didn't post it) My husband actually says she was...that was a very well known nickname for her. Please don't get me wrong I'm am sooo not her biggest fan...just passing on info...
Here's a link to an article on Wendy -- the photograph of her doesn't even remotely look like the Wendy Pepper we saw...she's all glammed up! Strange...
http://www.factio-magazine.com/womanofstyl...WendyPepper.cfm
Thanks for the link. I read the article and am convinced she required the reporter to submit his questions in writing, and then replied in writing. I thought it sounded pretentious. Maybe that was just me. What do you think?

Yes, she's alive and 82 years old. See:

Edith Head in real life had big round glasses and as I remember a bob like hair style.
They have a Pet Parade Show here too and everyone dresses them up for Halloween. It is cute, but the dogs are so funny trying to get the clothes off. Cats usually just lay down and refuse to move. I just laugh.
It all started out to keep the kids safe on Halloween. Organized activities that the kids would like so they were not walking all over possibly getting into trouble or kidnapped.

You know, I just do not think Heidi is all that beautiful. Now maybe she is in real life, but on TV she does not appear to be all that attractive. Yes she has the physique to be a model but not a real beauty in my book. I thought Gia was attractive, Christy Brinkley too. Guess it is all an individual choice. Some of the models are really stunning while others are just average in looks. I think Tyra Banks is not only beautiful but intelligent but Niomi Campbell is just average to me. Most of the European models are outstanding, that is why I think Heidi came here instead of staying over in Europe.
Boy am I getting out there with Haley's.

Is Americas Top Model a big hit? Ive never watched it and cant believe it would be bigger then PR. I seriously doubt Heidi stole anything from Tyra. Heidi has appeared on Tyas talk show and they discussed PR. If Heidi had stolen the idea from her I dont think they would have been so friendly with each other.

==========
I do not think Heidi is dumb by any means but from what I hear she is being sued by two people because they submitted the idea to her corporation and were turned down and then she pops up on Bravo with the same idea. We will have to see what happens in the courts.
