The Best of YouTube: Project Runway
Project Runway fans are a special breed. I think because it's a show about artists at work, refining their craft, with just a little bit of bitchy rivalry served up on the side, rather than the other way around. Naturally it attracts creative types, or people who just really wish they were creative types. And some of those creative fans have had a little extra time on their hands, which, to our delight, they've used to deliver up a nice selection of clips and spoofs of our favorite designing women and men. Here are my favorites, in no particular order:
1) Project Runway, the Musical:
This clip from Season 2's reunion show, featuring a montage of Santino, Andrae, Nick and Daniel letting off steam through music, had me laughing uncontrollably even the fifth time I saw it.
2) Guadalupe Walks the Line:
Also during the Season 2 reunion show, Lupe's answer to a fan's question rivaled Ozzy Osbourne, Courtney Love and Anna Nicole Smith for most drug-addled monologue delivered on national television.
3) Quack, Quack
This season's designers weren't all that musical, so someone decided to help them out a bit and turned a montage of clips (punctuated by Jeffrey's imitation of Laura) into a video of the Wiggles' "Quack Quack" song.
4) Project Drunkway:
We wouldn't want to leave out Season 1's pioneering souls. This is a reunion-show montage of their happier moments.
5) Raizin's Indonesian Silk Box Dress:
Bet you didn't know about Project Runway's other contestant. Raizin, of the sketch comedy group Olde English, defends his magnificent work in front of the judges and gets into a fight with Michael Kors over which color is the new black.
6) Operation Runway:
OK, this ER-meets-PR spoof isn't all that funny, but I really applaud their effort, especially all the outfits they made out of scrubs.
7) Project Catwalk:
Across the pond and far from the soothing voice of Tim Gunn, Britain's up-and-coming designers face host Elizabeth Hurley on the catwalk. Several segments from the first season are available.
8) Olympus Fashion Week:
Jeffrey
Uli
Laura
Michael
Spoiler alert! These aren't really videos but slide shows of the four finalists' collections at Bryant Park. Can't wait to see them all in motion on Oct. 18.
