Darlings, we forgot we still had another collection from PR Phillipines to rip. We may have forgotten to do this one because it's...well, forgettable. It's not bad; it's just basic department store clothes in really dull colors.

See? Not bad. Poorly fitted, though.

Feh.
Oh Jesus. This post is turning out to be harder to write than we thought. We should have put it off longer.

Well, it is an interesting challenge for a runway show...
"You have one bolt of cloth. Yes, one bolt. All the same fabric, all the same color. Now make a collection."
Since there was only one bolt, that is why the "Tootie Alert" dress came to be... must have run out of fabric.

You said it all, gentlemen. Fit issues really take this down a peg, and boy, the 'foundation color' choice for the fabric puts this firmly in the snooze column.
All the best,

yeah -- not hot.
12/9/08 1:43 PM
Not forgiving fabric and much to forgive. You were restrained about the fit and workmanship problems. Oh, wait, restrained or just dozing off?

I bet Heidi orders one in every color.

He's kind of cute, but his collection is "as dull as" and the color of dishwater.
Tootie Alert just about killed me.
12/9/08 1:59 PM
So, let me get this straight. Two of the finale collections had no color whatsoever... and the third was was made for aliens.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

"The feminine hygiene commercial dance? Priceless."
That comment? Priceless!
And "Tootie Alert" would have made me laugh out loud if I wasn't struck dumb by the site of that. . .uh. . . garment.

Let's send this young man some crayons; he needs color in his life.

Time to bring back a popular comment:
WHERE'S BILL?

Ok, enough already. You've got us hooked on Stylista then you write about anything but ... these PR Philippino collections put me to sleep. They remind me of the drab and safe eastern influenced boutique clothes I've seen in specialty stores in Tokyo, Jakarta, Shanghai and Hong Kong. But the bitchiness at Stylista - now that's interesting, petty, and addictive. What gives?

I really liked the look with the bald model and the moderna-shawl. Not everyone could pull that off, mind you, but that look really worked for me.
I bet if you could pick and choose looks from all three collections, you could come up with a really neat runway show.
12/9/08 3:52 PM
What an unfortunate choice of color! Talk about choosing the one color guaranteed to wash out your clients!
Too bad because any of these models could have used a little color in the wardrobe.

LMFAO at feminine hygiene commercial dance!
12/9/08 4:14 PM
Tony I really liked the look with the bald model
Odd. My comment was that she had this weird little round bulge just under her belt.

The name VeeJay sounds too much like vajayjay. So it all ties in...

Very boring.
12/9/08 5:13 PM
Other than the men's look in this collection, the only word that comes to mind to describe it is:
Shroud.

>> The feminine hygiene commercial dance? Priceless.<<
LOLOLOLOL!
You two are priceless!
12/9/08 6:17 PM
ugh. his collection is just boring. no color, basic designs.
i was able to watch a few episodes (was able to watch the replays) and i really have to say that someone else deserved to go there instead.
jaz (another contestant) was consistently having high marks (and very beautiful clothes) and then suddenly she was out only because the judges were on crack in the avant garde challenge.
12/9/08 8:55 PM
Awful... but still better than the winner. But the second collection was the best. It's pretty unbelievable that the second designer didn't win. And by unbelievable, I mean not believable. You guys sure?? Positive???

I agree with most of the comments, but as a Filipino living in NYC, I have to add some context. I watched the entire season of PR Philippines and saw the toy-like sewing machines and paltry budgets the contestants had to work with. It's a poor third world country but has lots of creative talent. This is the same place that produced Monique Lhuillier, Josie Natori, and Rafe Totengco.

Awful colours, boring and dull. But I like his men's outfit.
12/10/08 8:21 AM
Yawn. I need more coffee. And I hate to burst his colorless bubble, but nude colored clothing just does not sell.
12/10/08 8:54 AM
I do like some of the looks but not good enough for a final collection.
12/10/08 8:55 AM
I'm wondering if it's a cultural thing 'cause I don't like any of these collections.
12/10/08 8:08 PM
i couldn't even look at the clothes - i was too horrified by the makeup! is there one model whose face matches the rest of the body? ack.

Why are people so afraid of color? Was he asked to make things that would be like a chameleon in the sand?
