I also maintain that if you have not made it by the time you are 30 in the fashion industry then you need to rethink...
Ven,I am really starting to question the judge's taste level...that being said there is no true stand out and they will all be in the exact same position they were in when they started the show a year from now. Wearing ridiculous clothes and looking like a fool does not a designer make. They all look like fashion school drop outs and some are not so young...fashion is a serious business and none of them seem to get it with the exception of Vin/Van (whatever his name is). I also maintain that if you have not made it by the time you are 30 in the fashion industry then you need to rethink...
and No one!...unless you are giorgio armani or carolina herrera or vivienne westwood etc...
it was definitely time for him to go (again!) but elena is just awful, not even a fabulous designer and her personality cancels out whatever potential talent she may have, real life requires collaboration and who would ever want to work with her?!?
I have been watching PR since season one, and not sure if it's just me. But this season seems to have zero designers who really capture my attention thus far... But, I really have something else that is really petty and trivial annoying me, however it is this: season after season, Michael Kors will go on and on to these up and coming designers telling them that a certain look has been done before.... And while I have never really paid attention much to Kors label, I have just recently noticed via the show with his flagship store, as well as the full page ads in my magazines....his accessories are almost carbon copies of faux Birkins and faux Rolexes.... the hypocrisy is just annoying and now every time I flip thru a magazine and one of his products appears, it just grates at me.... That's my 2cents for today... Back to reading my September issue of Bazaar!

I will say he probably means a designer just getting started should have a breakthrough look that has never been done before. i.e.- New Look was to Dior, ultra minimalism was to Calvin Klein, etc.
