10 Questions for The Rachel Zoe Project and It’s a Brad, Brad World

Since The Rachel Zoe Project and It’s a Brad, Brad World are on the same night now, we decided to combine our inquisitive recaps into one. It’s like a double feature! Read our recaps below, starting with Zoe.

1. Are Skyler’s eyes real???

2. Ugh, why did Rachel have to emboss her name onto that cute simple pouch?

3. So it’s the vintage dealers who know what the next trends are going to be, isn’t it?

4. Did Rodger totally do one of Rachel’s “Ewmigod” things?

5. Do Rodger and I have the same haircut? [Ed. note: Yes.]

Game of Thrones Fashion Recap: We Are Not Men

It was a bleak episode for fashion this week on Game of Thrones. Everyone was captured or otherwise just being really dirty and disgusting in general. Ugh. Luckily Daenerys is back this episode to provide a little light (and we have some insight from costume designer Michele Clapton about her outfit), and we are officially introduced to the fetching Missandei.

Click through to check out Daenerys, as well as a fish fashion statement and a few other things that caught our eye this episode.

10 Questions for Project Runway Season 11
Recap

10 Questions for Project Runway Season 11

1. Does anyone imagine that the scene in which the designers are waiting to hear Michelle’s fate is what Purgatory must be like?

2. Why couldn’t Heidi have just told Michelle herself that she wasn’t going home? Must Tim always be the messenger?

3. If we’re talking “fashion capitals,” why isn’t anyone going to Milan?

4. Doesn’t it seem like the already rejected designers are the *real* winners in this challenge?

1. Did anyone else think of this when Rachel said she couldn’t be wearing more clothes?

2. Rachel just had to compare Barack Obama to Karl Lagerfeld, didn’t she? It is super nice that he/the White House sent letters to everyone who worked on Runway to Win, though.

3. Is it just me or has Rodger been on the show a lot more than previous seasons and has zero of that air time involved doing any sort of work?

Mad Men Fashion Recap: Death and (Hair) Dying
Recap

Mad Men Fashion Recap: Death and (Hair) Dying

Mad Men blasted back on TV last night with a special two hour season premiere that asked more questions than it answered. Many spoilers are coming this way, so avert your eyes if you’ve yet to see it.

In episodes one and two, we see Betty go through a startling transformation, Megan become the stereotype of a soap opera star, Sally toughen up, and Peggy ease into her role as the “Don” of Cutler Gleason & Chaough. Guest appearances by Roger’s two ex-wives, Mona and Jane, really up the fashion game for this episode.

Click through to see all the memorable outfits the cast is wearing as the new season kicks off into 1968.

3. How did Michelle not hear Nina on the “no t-shirts” stipulation?

4. Did Michelle really say “poor Patricia?” Is this a sign of the apocalypse?!

1. Why does Rachel need to “document everything” when she’s literally being documented all the time for a television show?

2. So Rodger is aware that he looks like a Colombian drug dealer?

3. How scary is it that Rachel probably isn’t even exaggerating when she says she has 600 coats (despite living somewhere where coats are pretty much unnecessary)?

Recap

Game of Thrones Fashion Recap: The Claws Come Out

Game of Thrones is officially back for its third season and last night’s premiere was definitely worth the (cruelly long) wait–both in the fashion and drama department.

Jon Snow’s hair is as magnificant as ever (if a little dirtier), Daenerys is really learning how to kick ass (and accessorize!) and the Margaery/Cersei “fashion fight” that G of T‘s costume designer Michele Clapton told us about is shaping up to be every bit as snarky as we hoped it would be.

Click through to see the fashion from the first episode of season three.

Spoilers ahead!

10 Questions for Project Runway Season 11

1. Does Layana not realize that pitting the boys against the girls would automatically put her on the same team as Patricia?

2. Do the designers never get a single day off between challenges to go explore NYC museums and the like?

3. Why did Tim Gunn have two big white spots on his forehead while explaining the challenge? Anyone?

4. Why do the designers seem so much more bitter and overall dishonest this season?

1. Since when is Rachel so much more low-maintenance than Rodger? She’s really just going to “throw on a dress and a turban” after Rodger spent forever agonizing over his polo outfit?

2. Why is Nacho the Polo Player Skyler’s “uncle?”

3. Doesn’t it seem like Rachel would have worn something more similar as Rodger and Sky Sky? Everyone at that polo match is wearing pastels and khakis. She looks like the wicked witch of the Berman family.
