In the episode where designers had to work with women of different sizes, i couldnt help notice 2 pieces of mr Mizrahi's outfit. He had a grey overcoat at the start of the shoe with a bright yellow cufs he also had silver shoes later in the shoe. If anyone knows the brand of either of the two pieces i would love to know, thankyou

I was surprised at how many of the contestents admitted that they couldn't sew. Weren't you aware of this before the show started? Did they not know that they had to construct garments for a runway competition? Their comments e.g. 'I just do the sketches, etc.' are legitimate if, indeed, they are running businesses and this system works for them. BUT the rules for the competition should have been made clear. Seeing pins, unfinished hems, sloppy construction is a big turn off. And - after the fact criticism by the judges just doesn't work if you want to keep the viewers (me, for one) interested. So far, the quality of the outfits has been poor - design wise and fabric choice wise. Also, excusing designers from dismissal based on design success in previous shows makes me tear my hair. E.g. Merlin's tweed disaster and Angel's unfinished pinned together thing were given passes 'because they have a flair for fashion' 'nuff said. Consider me a former viewer.
