Kara Janx and Fashion Week – Project Runway

About a week and a half ago when Kara Janx was booted off of the show I was definitely upset, not so much that she was kicked off but that Santino the dufus got to stay on. The fact of the matter is that he’s not that talented, yeah he like to throw trim on everything and goes overboard, but he’s not likeable nor is he a nice person, on any level. He has very little respect for others to boot. Before this turns into a rant I’d like to return the focus to Kara. Despite the fact that for the majority of the show I didn’t really like most of the outfits she designed she did manage to come up with a few inspired pieces including outfit for Santino. Regardless, she was the designer to show at Fashion Week but will not be shown during last episode of Project Runway since she has been eliminated. From what I’ve heard and the few things I’ve seen her collection was definitely a strong one and perhaps better than the rest. I guess it’s easier to take risks when you have nothing to lose. There’s an informative interview with her at Andy’s Blog (a producer for Bravo). Below are some of the looks from her show, I really like the hats!

  1. Kara didn’t impress me on the show because she seemed to always be crying. I was always cheering for Chloe and Daniel :) But I LOVE these dresses! Hello?! Where was THIS Kara during the show?

    My favorite is the kimonos that she makes. This is the same dress that she wore when she was auf…. It is such a great drss and comes in a bunch of colors and would be really great for the Spring/Summer.

    yeah I agree,
    But also Kara did do a nice job on the plant challenge. She put in alot of detail and her dress ended up to be spectacular! She did an amazing job on the runway too! Hopefully we’ll all see alot more of her work.

    Note: Did you see how Santino acted when he wasn’t on the show guy’s?
    He acted fine when he was well kind of off the show.

    I would just like to say that her deep purple dress with blue belt is soooooo similar to the one she wore on project runway on stage (and this one is the one that michael kors said it was great…so..this one is edited version i think
