BPR Live Play-By-Play/Party: Episode 8

Uh-oh, looks like Tim has the button bag! That can mean only one thing, yet another team challenge. All are welcome into the BPR party (just click the comments under this post) as we watch Episode 8, "Starving Artists"together. Tbone has the night off but Suzq and the gang will be here to watch it all go down. Come on in!

Tonight On BPR

Photo by Barbara Nitke

Unbeknownst to the designers, this is a huge challenge tonight. Tomorrow morning Project Runway will film the Season 10 finale at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York City. Assuming Lifetime follows previous protocol, all of the remaining designers after tonight's episode will be showing collections in the big tent to a huge crowd of celebrities, buyers, stylists, publicists and fans. It's a dream for many designers to show at fashion week and whether they make the final three or not, they can at least walk away from the show knowing they had the experience at the tents.

Two-thirds of Team BPR will be in NYC for the finale. Duty, honor and family obligations are taking Tbone in another direction so the party room will be left to Suzq and the usual cast of crazies. All are welcome to snark their way through "Starving Artists" as we watch the designers try to sell their Chiclets on the street:

• BPR play-by-play/party room opens at 8:45 p.m. as usual.
• Reactions thread up immediately after the show ends.

Hope you can join us tonight on BPR!

Project Runway Season 10, Episode 8 "Starving Artist"

"In a sales-based test, the designers are tasked to sell their goods to folks on the street. They must also spin out fall looks."

Designer Anna Sui is the guest judge. 

 Hmmmm... Tim is holding the button bag, and there are supplies on the table perhaps to create signs. Three teams of three. Should be fun...
