The Winner

[Passionatic]

Christian is obviously very talented but I did Not care for his collection at all. I thought the clothes were just Too Too 'over the top"...kooky looking. I really really liked Rami's collection, so elegant and sophisticated and Jillian had some really pretty pieces too,that you could see real people wearing. This was a fun season to watch, as I enjoyed several of the top finishers and Rami & Jillian seemed happy for Christian to win.

I finally saw the runway show. I liked a lot of Jillian's pieces but did not think her collection was cohesive - it was a bit mismatched.

Rami's collection was nice and much more wearable than Christians. He did a lot of creative sewing techniques especially with the weaving and draping. I did not care for some of his colors though.

I think Christian won because he had piece after piece of innovative high-fashion designs. I thought there was too much black and I don't think the average woman can wear his clothes but it doesn't appear that is the target market he has in mind. One thing that was interesting was that the final piece is normally worn by the model that they have worked with on the show but this time the final dresses were worn by other models.

I saw Christian on an E clip and he was given a new bed and sheets as a gift. I am sure he will use some of his winnings to get a bigger apartment as his place was so small and he slept on a hideaway bed in the middle of the closet. They also had another show on called project Jay which aired on Bravo. It was a repeat but I was surprised that Jay did not accept the prize money from when he won. Instead he held out for a licensing deal. I am not sure what that is but maybe taking the prize money meant not being able to accept certain for deals which could be more lucrative in the long-run.
