Blowup

Anna offers her take on the argument between Reco and Daniella.

June 11, 2009

Oh lord, here it comes. I was thrilled that Haven was in the top two. She is a cool little lady and definitely contributes to my sanity living here in this bizarre situation. She has really been working hard so I am really happy for her. She and I are in the same place in terms of our fledgling companies, life experiences, and careers, and I know that her dynamic personality is going to propel her business really far.

I really liked my piece although the pant could have benefited from another fitting. The jacket was killer and I am starting to realize that I can knock out a jacket like nobody’s business. Again, though, I was in the middle so I am getting a little frustrated. More than anything because I am showing my work in front of such prominent people in the industry, I would love to at least get some feedback so that I can win one of these days! No matter what, my model and Haven both wanted to buy my outfit so … success!

And then there was the whole blowup with Reco. Because Daniella and Haven are my good friends here, it is a really hard situation. I was able to tell Reco that I felt like he and I really agree with their point of view needed to be a little more humble. Between him proclamations that he is the only person here that could possibly win this competition and the book that he is putting out I feel like he is painting himself in a light that will make him look conceited. I think that this is one of the first times he has been placed in a situation with critics that sit in the worldview and competition that may just have a different and more applicable set of experiences. Regardless, I just hate to see everyone yelling and upset and there seems to be a real lack of LISTENING going on. All I know is that the drama has begun and it is only going to get uglier. Watch what happens!

I agree with the comment that you are very underrated. You should have won a challenge by now. Stay focused and things will happen for you. The person standing at the end is all that matters. The other designers that don't have the depth of talent as you do will be weeded out soon. Good luck to you, I know that people will buy your designs now that you're on the show.

YOUR GOTH T-SHIRT WAS THE BEST AND SHOULD HAVE WON.
your WINS are coming!

Anna
Keep up the great work. A comment about Rico - he does not understand that he and all the other designers are really in the people business. His arrogance is a discredit to fashion and in the end the winner needs to be professional and curteous. You continue with your work and professionalism and this contest is yours.

you're hot. you won't win this, but you'll get a lot of dates out of it.

Success!
Once you say it, its heard. Last week and this week your designs have been in my opinion overlooked. I love the oversized safety pin detail, and this weeks design was sassy, especially the back. The judges, and masses have noticed your work, so even if youre not winning challenges you are being remembered/recognized.

As for Reco, (and I know what we see is edited and only bits and pieces) but if I take my job very seriously, then expect all others around me to do the same. I agree with Reco in regards to Johnny R. It is unfair, selfish, and disrespectful to the others on the show, the others that TRIED to get on the show, and the viewers that take time out of their day to watch the show to constantly show a lack of interest in the show. I think Johnny should go home. Not sure what happened with Haven and Danielle, but Danielle from past episodes does seem to be conceited as well.

Since Bravo won't print this: Once again, Anna seems to be confident. Especially since she admits to being able to identify w/the trend. Her chic design came off as the "still-pissed-a-little-but-I-do-look-hot" Goth-twenties style, rather than Goth-'teens style of the design challenge.

Since none of my views have yet to be seen on this show, I just have to hope maybe one does. This designer seems to be a light yrs ahead in the competitions. Still can't get over how this episode's challenge was handled by Anna in such a way as to move the style rather 'seamlessly' (pardon the pun) from trendy 'teens to twenties.

Anna,

Your work is impecccable!!! Your design sense is on point...you should have won for the pleated skirt. Your pieces are always standouts!!!

Reality TV always "drama"...I don't know why some people really need it...I know you'll keep your focus!!! You are my favorite while the competition is tight.

You guys are doing a great job...I don't think of PR while watching because the challenges are so interesting and I look forward to seeing what you, Daniella and Reco will produce! Haven did a great job tonight and I felt she should have won the challenge! Can't wait to see what she'll produce next week, I feel she demonstrated tonight her niche as a designer.

TFS...Exciting!!!

Anna, I loved your goth design and I felt it was definitely a strong contender for the win. You've been consistently under-rated throughout this competition, but I'm confident that you'll get more recognition as the show continues. Keep up the good work in your designs and stay one of the voices of reason!

Guh, I think the whole situation was blown up by Johnny. Reco wasn't even talking about Haven. He was just pissed about Johnny's stupid well-I-have-work-waiting-for-me-at-home-so-there attitude. :/ Then Johnny tried to make it seem like Reco was mad at Haven which...I dunno. Makes me wish Johnny had gone two weeks ago.

All that aside, I really loved your t-shirt from the mini challege! I have several goth friends who I KNOW would love it~

I absolutely loved the jacket you made in the high school clique challenge. I understand your frustration about not getting feedback, because without it, you get forgotten. You are the smartest designer on the show and have maturity to match, keep up the good work.

Anna you jacket was a hit now create that in a man's version and i will buy it. keep doing what you doing you are a amazing designer.
