Project Runway : Interesting read on Ashley (season 14 winner)
Re: Interesting read on Ashley (season 14 winner)
Interesting read. I was annoyed by Ashley's comment about Project Runway fans being upset about her win. Apparently fans thinking her win was unjustified means we're intolerable of plus sized women? That's a cop out. Instead of addressing how the win was rigged she's going to call out the bully police? Realistically how many fans of Project Runway are model sized? In the fashion world, anyone size 6 and higher is considered plus sized. I highly doubt all the viewers of this show are sporting a size 4 or smaller and that's why we're upset with Ashley's win. I don't doubt Tims admittance that it was rigged. (Especially after they passed off that $25K check to Kelly during the reunion. A sad way to appease the public.) For the record, I was glad Ashley won; but ONLY because I didn't like Kelly and I knew Candice and Edmond (who were my favorites) had no chance. But I hardly think it was deserved.

While I agree with Tim's assessment of Ashley's collection (and her ultimate win), it seems a little hypocritical of him to be dissing it after he mentored Ashley through the process of making it and preparing it for Fashion Week. I don't remember what he was saying to her during the finale episodes, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't calling her clothes "hideous". If he's not going to give his honest opinion during the competition, he should probably keep it to himself afterward as well.

Wasn't she also his save last season? If that's the case, then yeah, it's very hypocritical cause he unleashed this monster.
Her final collection was atrocious. I've seen more fashionable outfits at K-Mart.
And yeah, most PR watchers are not model sized so they'd absolutely root for a talented plus-sized designer. I did like many of Ashley's designs during the season but the final collection was

She wasn't - Tim's save last season was Edmond. But he was overall very encouraging to Ashley throughout.

Kelly should have won that season. At least her stuff was fun and kooky (like her). Ashley's collection could have been way better.

Wonder how the other finalists felt when they learned that some judges voted for the symbol behind Ashley's work, not for the actual work Erin Banana could actually win season 15 when you learn that it really isn't always about the quality of the designs. I'm all for Laurence, btw.
Anyway, thought I'd share:
