project runway: and sew it begins

premiere style by andy south & ivy higa

did you tune into project runway last night to follow the design adventures of andy south and ivy higa? (if not, you can stream episode one online.) i will tap lightly on the keyboard to avoid playing the spoiler in case the show is tucked away on your dvr for weekend viewing, but will share that there was certainly lots of drama in the premiere . . . especially for one of the two local designers.

if you really want to immerse yourself in the designer's PR experience, i poked around the website and gathered a few video clips:

andy: make it work! | video diary

ivy: judgement day | video diary

and, do take a peek at the designers dish to discover what the other contestants thought of their competition.

what did you think of the designs this week and did you agree with the judges?
