S1/E7: Congratulations Kara Saun (again)!

Working as a team (with Kevin as team leader), the designers have to create a collection for the year 2055. To make it more interesting, all their materials need to be purchased at Cheap Jack's vintage clothing store. You can read Tim's Take on this episode here.

Go, girl! This was gorgeous.

Imaginative, well-thought-out, and believable. None of which is particularly surprising because Kara Saun is a costume designer. This kind of challenge is right up her alley.

We absolutely love the use of the leather jacket to make the bodice. Less crazy about the lace. She needed something to soften the tailoring in the coat, since the through-line for the collection was supposed to be deconstruction, but we don't think the lace really adds anything.

Clearly, most of the group chafed under the deconstruction mandate, so why the hell did everyone choose it?

Gorgeous and dramatic. The beauty is, it works as a costume for 2055 while at the same time, you could see this walking down a runway today.

Lovelovelove all the little leather details. Hatehatehate the lace the more we look at it. And it pains us to say this, but there are some construction issues with this piece. There's puckering all over the place. Granted, some of it looks intentional, but the back does look a little messy.
