Interview With Kayne's Mom!
We thought it would be fun to interview the moms and sisters who graciously served as models for the last challenge...and you know - on BPR we are all about the FUN!
Our first interview is with Kayne's mom, Judy. Personally, I LOVED Judy's outfit (Uli's design) and I know our readers did too. BPR thanks Judy for her kindness and generosity toward us crazy Project Runway fans!
When did the producers contact you about going to New York?
They called me 4 days before I left.
How long did you stay in the city?
I stayed in NY for 4 days. I arrived on Saturday and left on Wednesday.
What did they tell you about the purpose of the trip?

Transcript of Robert's Exit Interview
Once again BPR thanks MT for her excellent transcription of Robert's Interview!
Robert’s Exit Interview, Part I
The most unexpected moment on the show was when my sister showed up. I had no ... I really ... that just blew me a way. I was speechless for probably the first time in 37 years. And I’m 37, so that’s quite a while.

That's Three For Seven
Or perhaps 2.5. Our fabulous readers suggested many great challenges for season three. Here is a link to the original post. You'll recall that "rosebud" invented the dog challenge. Then scroll down to "Turn the Tables." This one suggests that the models choose the designers for a challenge. Well, two could have been a coincidence - but then read this challenge suggestion from Sharky:
Hi Mom!
I always thought it would be interesting to dismiss the models one week and bring out new models -- the designers' moms. Designers would have to make a nice outfit for their moms to wear out to dinner and, of course, design to their mothers' age.

Congratulations Vincent
You took a beautiful woman and designed an age-appropriate outfit that she could wear with confidence. You listened to your client and yet you were able to design something that was definitely your own aesthetic. You treated your client well and made her happy. She rocked the runway. Well done.Let's find positive things to say about Vincent's design and/or Vincent. If you have negative comments, please post them here.
Let's Send Some BPR Love to Robert
Robert, we are very sorry to see you leave. You are fun and adorably talented. The majority of our readers believed that you should have won the first challenge. Without a doubt you and Kayne provided some badly-needed comic relief. We will miss you!
Your Turn To Be The Judge VII
This week you get to be Nina Garcia, Heidi Klum, Michael Kors and Joan Kors. We have two polls for you. Click here to tell us who should have won. Click here to tell us who should have been out. Each day you can vote in each poll until it is closed.
Please note that dissing the moms in any way is totally off limits. They are not professional models. They did not sign up to be reality show stars and they were without the knowledge that they be would asked to walk the runway. You can talk about not liking the outfits that they wore without being disrespectful. They all rocked it on the catwalk. They read this blog. Comments criticizing the mothers will be deleted.
Please note that our polls are hosted by a service called Pollhost which is free and fun, but has some pop-up advertising.
Hooray for the Moms and Sisters
Thanks to all of the moms and sisters who agreed to be a part of last night's episode! You were wonderful. We enjoyed getting to see you - and getting to know these designers just a little bit better. The childhood photos were wonderful! Thank you to the sponsors who generously provided the travel arrangements and accomodations for these family members and thank you designers for your genuine heartfelt responses to seeing them. That was the highlight of the night. The tears of joy.
How fun it must be for you to see yourselves featured in Rate The Runway! You all look fabulous. I am wondering if these outfits will get more bids at auction because more people can actually wear them! Omigosh - maybe I could even bid on something! ....checking..... Oh funny!... the measurements on these garments are the same as they have been on all of the auctions. Designed to fit someone 5'10" to 6'2" tall and size 0-2. Well - that leaves me out! Hopefully this info will be updated. Well, probably not since they still have Nazri's name spelled wrong on her bio but I digress...
Can anyone explain to me why the designers couldn't work with their own moms and sisters? That would have made a lot more sense - the model and designer would have been operating more as a team, and the audience could have enjoyed better results. There would have been more fun little conversations between people who love each other. Also, you can bet that the models would have really worked their garments and sworn that they were the best things they had ever worn. Isn't that what we want? Great results? Happy clients? Some fun? Seriously. Can anyone explain?
All of the moms and sisters were so great. Since the first season we have wished for a "real-sized" challenge. Thanks for making it happen. Joan Kors rocked too.
So let's send the moms and sisters some BPR love.
Reactions to Episode 7
Okay kids, first some ground rules: No kicking, no cussing, no spitting, no in-fighting. No blows below the belt. No pepper games. Keep it clean, keep it fair and try not to say anything you may regret tomorrow morning.
Got it? Good.
Now, let it all out...
... but please, don't criticize the moms/sisters.
