I'm glad that things worked out for her.<BR/><BR/>I'd love to know if she discussed some of the immediatly-post-FW-show press with the other designers, considering that any number of fashion critics crowned HER the winner.Gidget Bananashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16932906614393093731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1141677928786465732006-03-06T12:45:00.000-08:002006-03-06T12:45:00.000-08:00I think Santino was really big on spray adhesive (...I think Santino was really big on spray adhesive (you can usually find that in an art store) and I'm sure Kara borrowed the idea for the hat she fashioned.

She was able to just use something she already had and finish it up; the contestants had to start something from scratch (they didn't have the option of doing what Kara did; that wouldn't have been exciting enough for the camera).ItsYvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543349101507411498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1141674199306076942006-03-06T11:43:00.000-08:002006-03-06T11:43:00.000-08:00Great interview-the more you hear of her, the more...Great interview-the more you hear of her, the more you like her!! <BR/><BR/>BPR Tour alert-not sure if we have time, but Purl is very cute and a very interesting shop. Yarns are very organic and earthy. Maybe a little pricey, that I don't remember.

Didn't even think of that.<BR/><BR/>I'm sure the clerk at the fabric store will have some kind of glue to recommend.Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14119230990374282143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1141666240361102922006-03-06T09:30:00.000-08:002006-03-06T09:30:00.000-08:00Hey Keith,To the best of my recollection Kara had ...Hey Keith,<BR/><BR/>To the best of my recollection Kara had a straw hat and was covering it with squares of plaid fabric.

It's for a PR house party this Wednesday and we are all encouraged to make an outfit. I was planning on picking up an old hat at a vintage clothing store and then finding a fabric that will go with a few tops that I have. <BR/><BR/>But I have no idea how to glue the fabric on or what kind of glue to get. If anyone can help, that would be awesome.Keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14119230990374282143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1141664287459760942006-03-06T08:58:00.000-08:002006-03-06T08:58:00.000-08:00Great interview!

OK, we were right about her having the same budget, finding out about the 13th look at the same time as the other designers, and about the other designers not being able to pick her to help.<BR/><BR/>Very interesting that she didn't get a helper. I wonder if she was working in her own studio in stead of with the other designers. That might explain why she had other partially finished garments to work with and given her an advantage that made up for not having an assistant. <BR/><BR/>I was also surprised the other designers didn't have extra designs in mind. I would think they would design (but not execute) dozens of looks and then cut that down to 12, which would have left them plenty of other ideas to work from. I guess not.eric3000https://www.blogger.com/profile/00554308678019220189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13478506.post-1141615090167054342006-03-05T19:18:00.000-08:002006-03-05T19:18:00.000-08:00Great interview with Kara!

I'm still a little miffed bout her selling out Lil' Chlo on the runway, but still.<BR/><BR/>How you are able to get a hold of the PR castmates is amazing.
