I still have to say, though, that' I'm underwhelmed by Chloe's final designs and impressed with Kara's -- relative to each's performance during PR2.Marshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17158479748212199986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1139777635566477372006-02-12T12:53:00.000-08:002006-02-12T12:53:00.000-08:00Laura, I've seen some speculation on other sites t...Laura, I've seen some speculation on other sites that Kara was the decoy based upon the fact that she used only one of the models from the show. <BR/><BR/>Personally, I can't tell.

Perhaps he just did that FOR the show?<BR/><BR/>Still a bit yawny on Daniels, though willing to admit that perhaps they're growing on me a tad. I just don't think there's anything, like, all that innovative about his stuff, from what I can see in these photos.<BR/><BR/>Chloe's, well... I just can't get over that Pepto-pink, pouf-sleeved, oversized monstrosity.

It was so much better than what he did during PR. <BR/>Kara has some beautiful designs, but her collection did not seem cohesive.<BR/>I was very disappointed by Chloe's designs. There were dresses in it that looked like they were made by the other designers on the show. There was one that very much like something Daniel F would have made, something that looked like it was designed by Santino, something that looked like it was designed by Nick. <BR/>Daniel V's designs were classic and beautiful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1139757479761469302006-02-12T07:17:00.000-08:002006-02-12T07:17:00.000-08:00I think a lot of Kara's collection looks messy.

I know that the fashion industry is obsessed with youth. As long as we accept that as if it's a law of nature, it will remain that way. I love some of the youthful things as well. But I know I can't wear them. Even if they would fit :)), they look ridiculous on a more mature woman. There are styles that do look fabulous on older women but there is soooo little to chose from. <BR/><BR/>I could go on and on, but I'll get off my soapbox now......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1139751944986569632006-02-12T05:45:00.000-08:002006-02-12T05:45:00.000-08:00The model that tripped in Kara Saun's dress was Le...The model that tripped in Kara Saun's dress was Leticia Birkheur(sp?).
