Mama! You’re back. Have you gone to your homeland yet?

I’m watching PR right now. Potato sacks; we shall see. What has not changed is that Seth Aaron’s hair is still bad.

I 100% agree about Seth Aaron’s hair…

Oh yes, Anthony is indeed the one with the hideous hip-increasing dress. I am not a fan of his couture but I do like him and think it’ll be fun to watch his commentary and the way he interacts with everyone. I also liked Emilio’s winning dress.

At this point, because there are so many of them, and because the actual runway show is so quick, I find it hard to pay as much attention to the actual clothes and much easier to note the personalities. But that will change as the contestants get winnowed down!

I finally watched it on Tivo. I agree with most of your observations, but is Anthony is the contestant I think he is, his dress was a travesty. Horrible fabric (Stiff black satin with huge bright blossoms? Who wears that outside of Dallas TX?) and unflattering design (second share of hips, anyone?) He’s sweet and fun, but I hope he can design better than that in future.

I liked Ping’s draped look — I’d definitely wear it myself, in the right mood! You’re right about her being loopy, but I like that.

And I thought the winning dress was pretty impressive. Not my personal style, but I could see the clarity of thought and well-constructed quality of it.

I hope you’ll post more of your impressions later in the season.
