This is the thread where we talk about Project Runway. Spoilers inside.→[More:]

After last season's dullness, it looks as if they've gone for drama again, with some completely weird contestants. Sandro, the Russian, is as opinionated as Dimitri from Season 10, but with none of the charm or humour. And his model had her labia hanging out!

The two rivals from Milwaukee looked like twins, facially. I'm so looking forward to the drama the sustainable fashion idiot will bring, although his dress was fugly and I'm glad his model just walked. You could see from her face she was furious with him.

I loved the dress that won, and the orange ruched dress that the straw-haired woman made (and if she's 45, then I'm a Dutchman, her crepy neck says she's 10 years older). I also liked Kate's little yellow tea dress, I thought it was cute.

I wish Angela had made a little pair of black capri pants to go with that swing coat. It looked so unfinished.

It's good that the judges get to have a closer look at the garments during the judging. In past seasons people have won a challenge with a dress that's glued or stapled together at the last minute, which seems unfair when someone else has sewn something properly.

It's too early to say who's a front runner. Like all these contestant shows (Top Chef, The Apprentice, etc), the first few episodes are a little frantic. But I'm sure, from the trailers, there'll be plenty of drama to come.

Oh, and my mother was married in 1946 in a dress made from leftover WW2 parachute fabric. It was actual silk in those days, and because of clothing rationing, there was no other fabric available.
