Movieline's Guide to Each New Project Runway Contestant


maya.jpg

Name: Anna Lynett

Age: 23

From: Whitefish Bay, WI

Caveat: Unobjectionably cute, like a blend of Season Three's Alison and Movieline's own Julie Miller. But she may be the blandest screen presence the show has seen yet, save... Zoe Glassner.

Name: Christiane King

Age: 30

From: Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire

Caveat: Calls herself a "veteran of Project Runway auditions." And her knack for color is probably too Jessica McClintock for Nina Garcia's taste.

Name: Janeane Ceccanti

Age: 28

From: Willows, CA

Caveat: Is incredible with fit. But "fit" does not a Project Runway winner make. Channeling Kara Janx!

Name: Pamela Ptak

Age: 47

From: Pittsfield, MA

Caveat: Her favorite "designer" is God. It's going to be juicy when he guest-judges.

Name: Jesus Estrada

Age: 21

From: Mazatlan, Sinaloa, Mexico

Caveat: Brought illegal seal fur to his audition. Tim Gunn was offended within four seconds.

Name: Jesse LeNoir

Age: 25

From: Painesville, OH

Caveat: In his audition tape, he (rather jokingly) touts his heterosexuality. It's already (rather jokingly) a little tiring.

Name: Jonathan Peters

Age: 29

From: Woonsocket, RI

Caveat: Created a mini-dress with an enormous crotch applique. We may have a toned-down Blayne Walsh (seriously, much less bronzer) on our hands.

Name: Maya Luz

Age: 22

From: Santa Fe, NM

Caveat: This season's "spiky things" designer. Though Christian Siriano approved in the audition, will impaled passersby be so willing to forgive?

    It's nice to see the adult-to-fetus ratio evening out better this season, but I truly do wonder if talented designers are staying away from this show as if it were the plague?
    Because last season was a wasteland. Waste. Land.

  • When I joined I was skeptical for just ten seconds before I realized what this was. I was smiling from ear to ear and you will too.
