Project Runway: Brooke Shields’s Lipstick Jungle Challenge

August 13th, 2008 · 16 Comments

Brooke Shields on Project RunwayOh, this was a good one! This week on Project Runway the designers were challenged by Brooke Shields to create an outfit for her character, Wendy Healy, on Lipstick Jungle. As an avid Lipstick Jungle fan, this challenge was definitely up my alley because I watch the show for the sets (remember Victory Ford’s apartment?) and fashion just as much as I do for the drama. Hint to Lifetime — Lindsay Price would be a fabulous guest judge next season.

Let’s talk about the favorites first. I adored Keith and Kenley’s chocolate petal skirt because it was feminine and provided enough texture for Wendy Healy’s look. Thank goodness Keith won the pattern debate (what was Kenley thinking?) but I may have even liked the first print that they skimmed over at Mood a little more. Regardless, the whole outfit was gorgeous. Jerell and Stella’s ensemble came in a close second and it’s the first time that I have approved of Stella’s “letha” — used sparingly and in mustard color. As a girl with a similar body type to Brooke Shields, I would have definitely appreciated the cinched waist of Jerell’s outfit but not Terri’s ultra-tight pants.

As soon as Kelli’s model walked down the runway with the bare midriff I knew she was going to be the loser this week. Perhaps if she had thought more about what was beneath the jacket then Blayne’s bermuda shorts may have been pinned on the losing dress form. His outfit was more H&M than Barney’s (where you would imagine a high powered Parador Pictures executive to shop), but I thought it was cute and wearable for everyday.

Overall, I loved this challenge and I will be forever envious of Brooke Shields’s shiny brown hair. What did you think of the winners and losers this week?
