Complete video at: fora.tv/series/92y_business_fi...
"Project Runway" mentor Tim Gunn shares his "disgust" over Season 8 and expresses his confusion over the judges' decision-making process. In an effort to console the designers, Gunn recalls saying, "All I can tell you is that this is a bunch of crack smoking judges."
-----
Tim Gunn talks about his work as a mentor on "Project Runway," his sense of style and becoming an overnight sensa-tion after 25 years in the business. Tim Gunn is chief creative officer at Liz Claiborne Inc. Formerly, Gunn served as chair of the Department of Fashion Design at Parsons The New School for Design. He is the author of Gunn's Golden Rules: Life's Little Lessons for Making It Work.

    Tim Gunn strikes me as being the essence of integrity. Even on the RARE occasion that I've disagreed with his advice to a designer, I've always known he speaks from a place of truth and desire to see people succeed. Wonderful.

    It is refreshing to see people like this still exist. He has integrity and as you said even on the rare occasion you disagree with him, he is genuine and you still find yourself respecting his input regardless. I still like Nina and Michael as judges and it's refreshing to hear there are disagreements with who should win. It makes them seem more human and the judging more real. I heard on one of the AllStar seasons someone mention how the judges on allstars are nicer.

    I agree with you about the original point of Project Runway. It's actually why I stopped watching because it was no longer about creating something that no one has ever seen before or being innovative. Being "on trend' is boring, but probably more marketable for the designer. I felt like her creativity came from choosing to do a plus-size range and have actual plus-size models. That's unfortunately innovative in the fashion world because nobody ever caters to the plus-size woman, the biggest market for clothing in the United States.

    One of the main reasons Tim Gunn now at least has one "Tim Gunn Save". The judges have made some terrible mistakes in the past, like they did with Mondo, and with Anthony Ryan in season 9. Some contestans have good results every challenge, and one bad result throws them out, while other designers are regularly on the bottom two and yet they reach the latter stages of the competition.

I truly don’t get how they sent Anthony Ryan home but Joshua, who they had to tell the ENTIRE season, learn how to edit, and he would become so defensive with even the smallest amount of constructive criticism, stayed all the way to the end.

It was never an issue before, they never cared before, then all of a sudden it was such a huge issue that was worth giving the win to someone else simply because their line was more "commercial".

    yes. The 180 they did on mondo, after he has designed his collection, when he can't do anything about it: it dismayed me. To move the goalposts like that seemed so unfair. The judges really seemed like they all thought they were supposed to be judging on different criteria. I am not one for reality shows. I am only watching this show because I am a designer/maker who is self taught and as such the world of fashion is like an undiscovered country to me once it gets to this level. I have watched a few British reality shows like Great British Bake-off and Sewing Bee. Never have I seen a final judges' deliberation like the PR: season 8 one. It was almost painful to watch. They should have something written down before they start out, a mission statement. "Project Runway aims to find the designer who most..." Props to Tim who saw through Ivy and Gretchen. Personally I would never want to work with Ivy, she is just like a mean schoolgirl. On UK shows like sewing bee you never get any of this bitchiness or drama.

    I am so glad Tim said this. I agree with Tim. It seems as if MK and NG were completely incapable of seeing the clothes without the accessories. Take away the hats, stockings, shoes and Mondo's outfits would be very ready to wear. Mondo takes very bold prints and makes them into neutrals. If I were to go into a store and see Gretchen's clothing I would pass it by because it would look like older aged Montgomery Ward clothes. I am 40. I am older. I do like Gretchen's items but I would have to see them on a mannequin to see the full potential. If one of Mondo's pieces were hanging on a rack or on a mannequin I would be immediately interested because I would have never thought to pair things as he does. I would try more options. If I found an outfit to be too busy I would simplify it with a solid pant, skirt or top. Andy and Mondo should have been in the top two. Gretchen's=boring. Tim gives great advice.

    Tim Gunn is such a sweetheart. Such a shame for this decision and when you see where the designers are now, it’s clear the judges made a big mistake that year. Mondo’s creations were always full of ideas, patterns and colours but he made them work every time. His collection reflected that. I think it worked perfectly as a collection and more importantly, you take his looks apart and every piece is still interesting. If it were in a store, it’d immediately catch my eye and chances are I’d buy several items. Hell it’s almost 8 years later and I’d still wear many of them in a heartbeat. His pieces are playful and creative but timelessly elegant at the same time. Gretchen’s collection looked both boring and borderline ugly, it reminded me of the polyester granny housecoats from the 70s. Same fabric, same colour, same print; everything was just ughh… The only salvaging point was the green leather (that MK hated btw) and the jewelry. It wasn’t fresh, it wasn’t modern, quite the opposite. It might be good for 20 yos who can afford to dress like they’re 45 and still only look 35 and think it’s hip (it’s not) but even then I don’t really think many would be inspired by that colour palette.

    In an interview, TG stated how furious he was with Weinstien's submarining the contestants when he learned the desginers' projected became Weinstien's property. The desinger's basically became contractedd to make designs for them and given next to nothing in return - revenue sharing, royalties, using their own label. It was also difficult for them to buyout their contract. Tim on numerous times was given the shell game when he advocated for them. He stated the only reason why he kept on was to keep the designers from being abused. I guess Weinstien couch was also a wardrobe.

Also, I have to say this entire season produced some of the worst 'fashion' I've seen on the show. It was like everyone took a time machine back to the worst days of 70's fashion and cut the backs out - ugh.

    OMG, I've been Binge Watching Project Runway and Project Runway All Stars and after watching Season 8 Ep. 12 I think it was where the final 4 contestants had to show a 3 piece "mini" show of their collection and one would be eliminated, I cried my eyes out all over again as Michael Costello got eliminated. Having all of the seasons and episodes so fresh in my mind, I honestly cannot remember a more wrenching and heart breaking moment as when Michael C. was eliminated and watched his reaction and genuine grief and shame over not having made it to Fashion Week. There was no effing way Gretchen should have made it to the Finale, let alone WON the season. Of course, the ultimate irony is that she isn't even a fashion designer anymore. What a WASTE of prize money on her. Mondo and/or Michael would have been marvelous winners of Season 8. Tim Gunn was absolutely right to be pissed off about the judges' ultimate decision in Season 8.

Turns out, after watching this video, they were the full strips trimmed form the spare ribs. I managed to do some intuitive yet not artful cutring and they were delicious, but it's nice learning the full anatomy.

    Gretchen made a collection of dirty diaper pants and grandpa sweaters, which might be Amazing for the Hipster/Millennials of today, but at the time they were pretty bad. I remember Heidi really wanting Mondo to win and Nina hating that Mondo had these clowns on some of his clothes. So, Gretchen won, we all pretty much hated it and he went on to win a shot load of money on All Stars season 1. Plus he's on a lot to seems. Honestly I couldn't even point out Gretchen. No offense to her though!! She just had a not awesome IMO collection. Oh well. This video rocked!!!

She did not present a winning collection at all. Her clothes were tacky and cheap looking. Mondo clearly should have won that one. That is just my opinion on the matter and I could care less if anyone disagrees with me or not. The good thing is it freed Mondo up for "Project Runway Allstars" and he finally got his much deserved win

    My favorite part is how Nina goes about 'loving' Mondo's work and then goes about the finals saying it's 'all color' or some junk. Nina pretty much went on the record in Season 9 Episode 4 with that challenge that she doesn't want colors or prints. Here's a similar scenario; in Season 12 Alexandria has the near same style of brown and black crap as Gretchen while Dom has colors and prints (I think) as Mondo. What's the difference here; Gretchen was able to win because Nina had Michael K in cahoots but Alexandria isn't as lucky because Nina doesn't have Kors anymore, we fortunately have Zac Posen who wasn't about to let any of that muddy garbage win again.

    +Taprus Light Not true, Alexandria's collection was actually picked by most major fashion reviewers and editors as the winner. She brought a real sense of the Scandinavian aesthetic that the show had really never seen before and managed to apply it stylishly and with flawless execution. I loved Dom and had no problem with her winning (their collections were really neck and neck, imo) but don't discredit Alexandria by putting her on the same level as Gretchen, their collections were miles apart both conceptually and in their effectiveness.
