DVD Reviews of Project Runway: The Complete Fourth Season
DVD Review: If you love sewing, you'll love this DVD!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a lot of sewing experience, but have no time to watch TV, so I've never watched the Project Runway show until receiving this DVD as a Christmas gift. I'd heard of Project Runway from seeing sewing-related merchandise at the fabric stores, but didn't know what it was about until some sewing club members told me how much they loved this TV show. I got hooked from the first episode---this is really entertaining!
The show starts with 15 contestants who design and sew clothing for various assigned tasks----menswear, 2-piece ladies' outfit, etc, (one task per episode). The garments are modeled in a runway show and judged at the end of each episode. The number of contestants gradually dwindles at the end of each episode, when he/she who gets the lowest score for a garment is released from competition.
This show has laugh out loud moments. For those who sew, you'll get a laugh out of the contestant whose fellow teammate is exasperated and describes her as being from another planet---she has a "unique" approach to sewing. She is a nature spirit, into yoga, and she spit-marks her fabric, and her teammate has to explain to her that using pins is more accurate (and cleaner)! Unbelievable! I have to say, she's one of my favorites, and I like the way she uses the floor as a cutting board.
This show is filmed in such a personal way---you learn about each contestant, a little of their life, ambition, why they're attracted to fashion, their day jobs---these personal things really make you pick out favorites.
If you do a lot of sewing, you'll appreciate learning how these designers approach the tasks. Some of the contestants are obviously more experienced with sewing and tailoring, and if you sew you'll appreciate seeing them working hard at creating their garments. Some of the garments are absolutely lovely, and some are disasters. Those who sew will appreciate the sewing successes as well as the sewing mishaps.
One thing that I noticed and appreciated about the judging of the finished garments was that shoddy sewing was recognized by the judges, and that the contestant with the lowest score generally had the worst sewing. It's nice to know that good sewing skills are rewarded. On the other hand, you really have to sympathise with these contestants being under tight deadlines and scrambling to get their garments finished while running out of time. Some of the contestants are obviously skilled with sewing, and some seem to be gifted at drawing designs but lacking in sewing skills.
Sometimes celebrities are featured to assign tasks and to judge the finished garments (such as a former athlete/ news anchor who assigned a task of creating menswear suitable for a TV news host). Personally, I thought the contestants were far more interesting than the celebrities. I do not have time to watch TV, so I'd never heard of the celebrities on this show---one was an actress from Sex and the City. It is good that the narrarator/mentor/announcer tells us who the celebrity is and why he/she is famous.
Tell your sewing buddies about this DVD, it's great!
