Project Runway Recap: The Housewives

Project Runway Recap
(Photo by: Greg Endries/Bravo)

I am coming into this Project Runway recap bone tired. Today, some miraculous things happened at Casa Tattles. For starters I woke up in THE MORNING. I drank some coffee, then I TOOK A SHOWER, washed my hair and put on clean clothes. It was like a medical miracle. Then, I went to WHOLE FOODS for the first time since the pandemic started. Sadly, they didn’t have the water I have been dying to get, but I did manage to get some smaller bottles and a few fancy things that I might actually eat (but probably not). By the time I dragged everything inside. I was ready for bed. But, Banjo had other plans. But, I got to Whole Foods!

MORNING UPDATE!  Each week, Bravo posts two batches of Project Runway photos. First, there are random shots from the introduction of the challenge, and random shots from the workroom, and some shots of the judges. Then, sometime after the show airs, usually at least this season an hour are so after it airs on the east coast. I fell asleep waiting for the second batch. It never came. It is still not there this morning. OF ALL THE WEEKS FOR THIS! If they ever put up the runway looks, I’ll try to add them.

Apples, Oranges, Flowers

I can’t wait to see The Housewives on Project Runway. I’m sure it is going to be a disaster. I already feel bad for the designers. Then, I am going to sleep until June. Or until Banjo wakes me up to do his bidding. 🙁 As it turns out, adulting is very tiring. So is sanity. It seems to require physical exertion. 🙂 We begin with the final seven moving into new rooms in their apartment. I can’t believe we are down only seven contestants. Next we see the final seven take their spots on the benches by the runaway next to vases that have either apples, oranges or flowers. It’s the real life client challenge. Then, Shannon Storms Beador, Gina Kirschenheiter, Gizelle Bryant, Karen Huger, Gizelle, Wendy Osefo,  Leah McSweeney, and Luann de Lesseps stroll down the runway. And the designers freak out. Except for Shantall who has no idea who they are and Anna doesn’t know what a reunion is.

Chasity is the most excited by this challenge, she is a super fan and her client is Karen Huger. Bones is styling Shannon.  For some reason Noella had a dress designed by Bones on the last WWHL. It was perfect for her. Shantall has Luann.  Anna has Gina. Aaron has Gizelle. Coral  has Leah. Kristina has Wendy. The bad news is Christian is not going to Mood with the designers. They really need him at Mood.

It’s A Whole Mood

Leah wants to be a sexy Disney princess and 47 other things. She is all over the place, poor Coral.  Shannon shares all of her insecurities about her body with Bones. Also, Shannon says the RHOC reunion doesn’t allow them to wear long dresses. But she wants her knees covered and her arms, and she has to wear a bra. Bones loves Shannon though. He’s happy. Arron and Gizelle agree on a jumpsuit. Anna seems concerned. Everyone heads to Mood. Coral went from emerald green to nude. Leah will have a problem with that. Aaron has the most experience working with clients. He realizes that Gizelle thinks of herself as a Barbie, so that’s his inspiration.

Kristina is making Wendy a suit with a corset and pants in a deep red. Shantall seems to have a good read on Luann and is making a sexy long black dress for her with a corseted top.  But then, she seems to have changed her mind and is going with a pant. Chasity is making Karen a full length beaded gown that is mostly black and must be handsewn. Bones is making Shannon a little black dress. Coral is ignoring Leah’s word salad of suggestions. But, the dress looks good. Bones worried his dress is boring. It sounds like he is going to do something unusual with the sleeves.

Christian Siriano Tries To Help The Designers

This has been one of the worst seasons regarding designers actually listening to the mentor. Let’s see if tonight is any different. Well, if Chasity is any indication, the answer is once again no. Her basic black dress has no wow factor. He’s also underwhelmed by Anna, basic black look as  well. But, she does listen. Bones also has an all black look at the request of Shannon. He gets the same advice and he listens. Aaron listens to Christian when he tells him to put Gizelle’s corset on top of the dress rather than underneath. Kristina is covering up her beautiful tailoring with a loose layer on top. Will she listen to Christian?

Shantall’s look reminds me of those half and half Halloween costumes where half is male and half is female. I don’t like it. Her first dress idea for Luann was perfect, but she has gone off the rails at this point. I actually don’t think she needs to listen to Christian. Coral tells Christian that Leah will not be expecting the nude fabric. He seems shocked. But, not as shocked as Leah. I can’t even pick a stand out this week. They all seem to be struggling or overthinking it.

Send In The Models!

Here we go, the moment of truth is upon us. Gird your loins, designers. Leah loves her dress. Wendy doesn’t seem to like hers at all. Shannon loves her dress. Karen loves her dress. Gina didn’t tell her designer that she can’t wear a long dress. It has to be cocktail length or pants for the RHOC reunion. I thought Gina was lucky to get Anna, but her design… well it just hasn’t come together yet. Leah is mocking it. I’m confident Anna can pull something off though.

Somehow, Luann’s look got a lot better and she is happy. Bones is trying to convince Shannon to like her look and her body. Wendy told Kristina she could do a pants suit. Then, when she didn’t like the look she says that they don’t normally wear pants to the reunion and she wanted to show off her legs. Leah is mocking Wendy too. Leah is such a bitch. Wendy makes Kristina cry.

It’s Runway Day!

Things are still a mess with Wendy’s look. Once again Leah and Gizelle are making things worse. Luann looks great in anything with that body. Gina’s look is a little better, but it is not up to her usual level. Bones continues to build Shannon’s confidence. I’ve come to like Bones over this season. Chasity has a last minute zipper malfunction with Karen’s dress. Andy Cohen is the guest judge. Gizelle is first in her hot pink number. Aaron literally says, “Wow” when he sees her. This should be in the top. Andy is grinning ear to ear. This could be the winner.

Next out is Karen, and she looks amazing in her black look. And she too can walk a runway. Wendy’s look is probably going to be in the bottom, and once she bad mouths Kristina, she will likely get the boot. Her boobs don’t really fit the dress. Gina cannot walk the runway. And Anna really needed her to strut it like she likes it. This will be on the bottom. The judges always rank Anna lower than she should be anyway. The look did come out better than I expected. Shannon’s walk gave me a bit of Ramona vibes. Bones seems pleased with himself. I think it is kind of fussy with a dash of old lady. Leah’s dress was lovely but a bit bland for a reunion dress. Luann wins the whole damn thing. She is amazing and looks ready to throw down at a reunion.

The Judges Verdicts

They are going to leave all seven on the stage and bring out the clients to give their opinions. Oh God. This will be interesting. They start with RHONY, Luann is up first. Luann loves her dress and so do the judges. Brandon says it is one of his highest scores ever. Leah is very kind to her designer. Andy loves the look because it is unexpected. Brandon is worried the flesh tone will was her out on TV. The judges are split on this look.

Next up is the RHOC starting with Shannon. The judges are going easy with feedback while the housewives are out there. Gina is next. Anna is going home. The judges are going hard on this look. On to RHOP. Kristina is also in trouble with Wendy’s look. Wendy is throwing Kristina under the bus. Wendy lies about telling Kristina she’s be fine with a suit. Gizelle loves her look. Karen says this is the best she has ever seen Gizelle look. Aaron is in the top. Gizelle loves Aaron. Chasity is going to be safe. Backstage, Wendy is still a bitch. Shantall and Aaron seem to be the top two. They question Chasity’s originality. But they really come for Ana. Andy says that Gina would be savaged on Twitter. They also hate Kristina’s look on Wendy. They also knew that Kristina and Wendy didn’t get along.

So Who Wins And Who Goes Home?

Shantall takes another win with Luann’s dress. It’s her second win in a row. Narrowly beating out Aaron (who is often stuck with second place) for his look with Gizelle. Chasity, Kristina and Anna are in the bottom. Anna goes home. But, I’m sure we will be hearing more from her.

Next week: It’s a collaboration with a hair stylist. They have to make a look based on a hairstyle?

WELL THE PHOTOS ARE FINALLY UP! I feel like the reason they were not added last night is because most of them are so bad. The photos of Karen from the rear was the only runway photo of her. If this wasn’t the Housewives episode I wouldn’t have bothered to put them up.

    Happy NY TT and yay for you getting up and getting going!!!
    I really like all the designers so will focus on Housewives…. Wendy was awful!!! Beyond awful and made me dislike her more than I already do. I guess I didn’t see Leah being a bitch – she should have had a pop of red lip and it would have worked better w the muse dress which I thought was pretty. Luann has such a body to die for – Shantal’s dress for her was amazing! Gina gets the mVP award from me bc poor Anna did not make anything good and Gina was so supportive plus supportive of Kristina when she had her meltdown.

    Finally, Project Runway after TWO while weeks!

    I have to say, Luann was very professional towards Shantall AND thankful. I also think Bones had good help from Shannon with directions as well.

    I just do not think Aaron is very FASHION in his design, and neither does he dress like he is.

    Anna really got weaker after her accident I think, and I felt sad to see her go. She has what it takes to work in the business that is for sure.
    I do not feel like the judges mostly really saw her for what she is, but definitely Mr Siriano does.

    Bones is great TV, he is very funny..!

    I loved this episode and didn’t know there was a reunion dress code that said no long dresses for the OC. It was strange to see so much black used when it is not a reunion color and it made sense that the bottom 2 designers didn’t know the HW franchise. That screwed them up big time. Those 2 outfits were awful. Gina was an 80’s Judy Jetson outer space queen and Wendy’s was all sorts of wrong especially the fitting of the boobage. Gina showed she was a good person (the ciggie stuff was kind of funny – yes people still smoke just ask BD), and how many time do they have to say “Grahn Dahm”. And TT congrats on getting up and out 2022 yay!

      The production teams, not Bravo choose the reunion themes. So that is why there are differences. That said, I’d never really noticed that RHOC never wears gowns. I think the other franchises should stop with all the ball gowns. They are not going to the Met Ball, more like a boxing match where they are the fighters. They should wear those costumes that Mexican MMA guys wear. LOL.

    Shannon IS kind of fussy with a dash of old lady! She was great though, I love her honesty about her body and she and Bones were a great team.
    Leah is still a nutbag, and I loved the idea of her dress, but I would have loved to see a bright layer underneath the nude, like magenta or tangerine. It would have showed up the woven material on top more.
    Kristina called Wendy a “diva” when she burst into tears, which seemed appropriate. Wendy wants to show off her boobs, her butt and her legs, so she might as well go naked. I love how Gina came out to comfort her.
    Luann just OWNED that show, the whole thing.

      I can’t imagine a better result for Leah and Shannon. They were actually enjoyable to watch on episode. Shannon was fun and self-deprecating in a very charming way. Leah was gracious with Coral, and production did set her up to look like the diva client during previews. Even her catty back talk of other HW was tame comped to her usual screeching, and she did look like a goddess.

      Wendy was nasty and condescending. She purposefully degraded Christina on camera in the green room after runway and insinuated that she saved Christina by keeping her true opinions to herself. She enjoyed that exchange and reveled that it was public. Bones did try to warn Christina that Wendy is difficult. I am sure he was very relieved he got Shannon. Elaine is as much reporter as fashion editor, and she does tend to dissect issues well. She shared great wisdom with Christina to ensure she always gets the client’s full consent going forward. I think Wendy assumes she was clear and succinct, but Christina likely processes in her native language and Wendy was too cutesy and subtle describing her vision other than her prioritized purchased physical enhancements.

    Anna went home. Her design deserved it. BUT THIS IS WHY I HATE IMMUNITY!

    Christian used the Siriano Save — and rightly so — when Shantall was offed because Kristina had immunity on that hideous team challenge.

    THIS is when the Siriano Save SHOULD have been used. And, you could tell by Christian’s farewell that he would have used the save.

      I disagree. Anna has been a hot mess lately. She is a great designer, but she seemed to be in over her head the past few weeks. I believe she was WRONGFULLY in the bottom on multiple occasions and that messed with her head. Someone here said that Ana has been off since the accident. That may have something to do with it as well. But, her confidence was gone and it really affected her looks the past few weeks. It was sadly time for her to go home and reset.

      Aaron is also in some sort of existential crisis or something. He SHOULD HAVE won way back with that yellow pantsuit he made several challenges ago. He’s always in the top, but never the winner. You could tell this week when Shantall beat him again, he knew he wasn’t going to win. And really, there was no beating Shantall this week because she had Luann. Aaron is consistently great but never rewarded. That must be wearing on him. I still think he can win this.

      In other news, I’ve gone from hating Bones with a purple passion, to really enjoying him on the show. He was very kind to Shannon.

        I remember back to Dmitri’s season. Much like Aaron, often on top, but not a winner until the end. The important thing is to MAKE IT UNTIL THE END. The final collections are where the Dark Horse can come from behind. But I can see where not winning could really mess with your confidence. I think Aaron has enough confidence to ride it out.

        It does seem like after the accident, Anna slipped. Especially when Octavio left. I hope there is a PR Redemption TV show, not internet, later and Anna comes back.

    Shannon was a knockout. I loved her dress and I love that she was adamant about her dress not being above her knees. What is with these women showing their knees and all the old flesh on the inside of the knee poking out? Knees are not pretty in older women and dip shit Heather needs to take that advice. She is gross with her thimble legs. Back to the runway….Gina looked horrific in the dress and her makeup was horrible also. I don’t like Gina. She is a shit-stirrer this season and I hate her voice.IMO Shannon was #1 and Luann #2 THEN #3 Gizelle. I thought Wendy was terrible and no matter what she had done she is not that much to look at. Frankly, she looks like a drag queen.
    I love Shannon this season. For the life of me, I cannot understand why they brought Heather back. She is just plain and evil and her husband is the worse.

      In my opinion, Bones gave Shannon the dress she asked for. The problem was, it was pretty much the same dress she wore to the runway to meet the designers. She needed an alternative to the LBD. But, Bones gave his client what she asked for.

      I watched the show again — partly because I cannot stay awake lately — and partly to see LIAR LIAR 👖 🔥 Wendy.

      After Kristina measured her, she SAID “You can give me pants. You can give me a jacket. I’ll be good in anything.”

      Kristina asks if it needs to be a dress or can it be a suit — note that Wendy is wearing a blinged-out suit — “It can be wherever you want it to be. If you think you can make a suit …”

      What Kristina SHOULD have made (hindsight) is a GOWN with a more boob supporting top and a VERY LOW CUT BACK with light ruching above the butt that really accentuates a good bootie. If Wendy quesioned the covering of her “great” legs, the answer is NEVER EXPOSE EVERYTHING in fashion (it’s not Frederick’s of Hollywood). Think of the famous JLo Versace gown.

    Didn’t Noella say on WWHL the night before that Bones designed her dress for the reunion, and to watch this episode of PR? From all that hype, including Andy making her stand up to show off the rest of the dress, I thought she was actually appearing on this episode of PR! What did I miss??

      It didn’t make sense to anyone. If it was a reunion dress, why would she wear it on WWHL? I do know that a lot of housewives use Project Runway designers from time to time. I too, thought that meant Noella was going to be on this episode.

    One more thing: FUCK YOU Karen, for chastising Elaine Welteroth, who IS A TRUE YOUNGER GRAND DAME of fashion with many accomplishments. She is regarded as being a pioneer and role model for Black women in the fashion/journalism industry. A woman who has done more than a stank perfume and a lousy three-wick candle. Grand dame in your own mind and reality TV, maybe come out with a “luxury” line of purple Kool-Aid next, whatever you and your stans have been drinking.

    This episode was the absolute best! Entertaining and fun and so many sweet moments! Sharon & Bones were cracking me up, Gina was so sweet comforting the girls outside while chiding them about smoking, and with Christian calming everything down inside. And then the judges were kind and positive with everyone. I really wanted Aaron to win, especially with how great Gizelle looked, but I can see why Shantal won it. Shantal and Kristina are probably more fashion forward, but I usually prefer Anna’s, Coral’s, and Aaron’s work. I really thought Anna would take the whole thing when I saw her first few designs of the season. I can totally see Christian hiring her. The top didn’t fit, but maybe if she had more time, she could have fixed everything. I thought Coral’s was really interesting for Leah. They weren’t peace signs, but it reminded me of that, so I agreed with whoever said it was kind of hippy or bohemian. Doesn’t she always wear that color? Anyway, a great episode all around.

    Congratulations Tamara on being up and going shopping! Very happy for you.

    Stay healthy, everyone!

    Luanne’s was the best, too bad no one will see it. Gina, wow just as hideous as her various hairdos. Bone’s dress on Noella was so much better than Shannon’s creation in my opinion. Yes wendy should have been more clear on no pants and the designer should of added boning and larger cups, but well that was her choice. Overall decent.

      Odd comment. Gina was at least gracious and of the disconnect was her designer having no clue about housewives or reunions.

      Shannon absolutely would never wear Noella’s dress. You can’t compare personal preferences when judging a designer. That’s unfair. Shannon looked great and clearly loved her look. Noella also loved her look and looked fine. Why are you judging a designer for making a 50 year old woman look good and feel good? Because she’s not wearing what a 20 year old model wears? The differentiation makes him a better designer, IMO.

    I should have added to my previous comment, I like the dresses that Bones made for both Shannon and Noella, I just don’t like Noella and how she treats people who are trying to stand by her and support her. Yes they ask the facts, married or not and such but when rumors fly we all know the best thing to do is ask the questions and get to the bottom of it and then move forward

    I agree, Bones has grown on me. I liked how supportive and kind he was with Shannon and I could tell Shannon really liked her dress.

    LuAnne – I mean, come on! Perfection.

    I felt for the designers who truly had no idea who the housewives were and what a “reunion” was. It was a disadvantage. That being said, Gina acted with class. Wendy was a royal B who lied and threw her designer under the bus.

    Happy-Ness more like E-GO. With 4 degrees (were they all online?) I presume one would remember saying PANTS WERE FINE. I didn’t think her look was that bad and given her attitude, she’s lucky she was dressed at all.

    Anna – I do think the accident impacted her. Also the times she was at the bottom when she didn’t deserve to be. It was clear her self-esteem was shattered, well done judges. I wish her all the best in the future!

    Aaron- ever since HIS blowup with Bones, I haven’t liked him. He’s pretentious and I sense a not very nice side (to be politically correct) that he’s trying to hide. I’ll leave it at that.

    Loved this show! Luanne was fantastic on the runway and looked like dynamite in her dress. I really loved Shannon’s dress and her interaction with Bones. You could tell she felt amazing, I totally agree with Skye that there is too much boobage and mini skirts on many of these over 50 women. Shannon looked great. Giselle’s outfit was such a stunning color on her – Aaron hit it out of the park. Leah’s dress was pretty but that was definitely NOT her color. Gina’s look was unfortunate. Karen’s was just ok. Wendy is a rude, obnoxious biatch. That is all

    Gina looked like she was wearing an 80’s nightmare. Gizelle, an Lunann looked spectacular.

    What is wrong with “older” ladies dressing the way they want, even if you think their knees aren’t that attractive? I would like to think we wouldn’t tell a lady who was “overweight” or any woman who doesn’t fit the “ideal” that she should only wear certain styles, so why the bias against older women or anyone? Every women should feel free to wear any style she wants.

    I watched the Project Runway After Show with Christian Siriano and Anna Zhou. Apparently, Mrs. Zhou had a very happy homecoming with her hubby after the elimination. She is due in April…

    Wow, I can’t believe this very race-conscious recap and commenters are okay with the use of “nude” to mean “beige white woman’s colour”.

      Oh please. Don’t you have anything more important to be outraged over? If this is all you’ve got. I envy you.

    Great recap of a really good episode. I was hoping Aaron would finally win. I didn’t really care for Lu’s dress that much and I loved Shannon’s & Karen’s. Guess that’s one of the reasons I’m not a judge on the show, lol. Bones has grown on me as the season has progressed. What can I say about Wendy that hasn’t already been said? Does she realize how bad she looks when she treats people so rudely? Is she embarrassed when she watches it back or does she just not care?

    This was a fun show. Luann’s look was perfection and she’s alway beautifully pit together.

    Shan’t all did not know Housewives and reunions but she is an excellent designer who collaborated well with Luann.

    Wendy…. I thought her design was ill fitting in the boob area, but not a bad look. Maybe a split in one pant leg or something to expose more leg would have pleased Dr. Wendy. Wendy didn’t say she preferred a dress until she saw the pants. That was unfair to the designer.

    Shannon told Bones very specifically what she wanted and he added his design aesthetic to it. I loved them together. He really is a sweetheart. I laughed out loud when Shannon was putting on tanner and he told her to not come out looking like him..

    Gizelle looked wonderful, I hope she continues to use Aaron. He designs well.

    The nude dress for Leah was gorgeous, I liked the monochrome look. The designer is so talented with her weaving skills. She keeps stepping it up each week. At first, her macrame reminded of my grandma’s hanging houseplants. That is my earliest memories of macrame. Grandma’s plants were placed in a macrame plant holder that hung from the ceiling.

    Anna..what in the world? She is better than the design she made for Gina. We all have those moments.

    I liked Karen’s dress but I agree it wasn’t special from a design standpoint. It was nice and she liked it and Anna’s design was awful.

    I wonder if Christina and Chastity were the bottom 2 who would have gone home? Chasity for the lack of original design or Christina for poor fit and useless scarf that no one like?

    Great recap as always TT.

      It was surprising that Chastity said in front of the camera that she did not want to listen to Christian’s advice.
