Bravotv.com chased down Alison Kelly for a quick Q&A. We gave her a break on the questions because, like everyone this time of year, she's got a terrible cold.
Bravotv.com: First, How are you? What are you up to?
Right now I am in a very exciting place; I have just gotten my first very big order and am going over the details with my factory, editing samples, fine-tuning patterns, and going into production.
Bravotv.com: There was a huge outcry of unfairness when you were auf'd. How were you about the whole thing?
I experienced being "auf'd" twice; the first time was the actual day I was eliminated during filming, the second was the day the general public experienced the elimination. I have to say I handled it as any other person in my position would have, I sulked for about a day, then I was glad to be finished with the whole thing (FYI: It is not fun to be on a reality TV show if you are a somewhat private person, i.e., me) and thankful for the experience. Now I look back with barely any regrets or hard feelings.

alison, I too thought it was unfair the way you were kicked off. I don't get these judges, but not only Project Runwayalso the judges on Top Chef. They did it to a girl named Josie. Both of you are extremely taented. Stay Sweet

Alison, I didn't feel it was fair for you to be auf'ed in the recycle challenge because I think the judges could not pay attention to the detail you've done with the paper, in turning an origami work into wearable clothing. Tim was right, if the purpose of the challenge was to turn nonfabric into as near fashionable clothing as it could be, then you've done a great job, certainly never warranting an exit, and certainly putting dilusional Vincent to shame in terms of your expression of art. It amazed me how Jia could not walk down the runway and yet Vincent stayed.
Aside from how the camera obviously loves you (I must admit, you look gorgeous), your dog challenge showed that you had a lot more to give than what we saw during the challenges you had, and you didn't deserve to exit in front of Vincent...
Good luck in everything you're doing; there's no limit in the sky...

I was truly disappointed when you were "aufed" You have great style and a very pleasant personality. I think you just wern't "mean" enough for the show. I would like to see you sell your accessories on QVC where you would make alot of money and friends. You would be joining Chloe Dao, Heidi Klum and Michael Kors.
Best of luck.

I too was upset when you were auf'd. I admired your own personal style and thought of you as my sort of fashion icon. This is an off the wall question/comment, but I have not been able to key into the ten core items every woman should have in her wardrobe. I plan on replacing my existing wardrobe this next year and would like some direction on some must haves. Thank you for your fashion knowledge and for being so damn cute!
