Our friend, Emmett McCarthy, gives InStyle magazine readers some fashion tips. Looks like bubble skirts are making a comeback. But, we already knew that. Thanks Jodi.

Finally, Darren sent us this photo of Nick and Andrae, posing with the lovely Jody Watley at the Alpha Gear event in LA.


Did You Submit a Reunion Question?


During the Season 2 Reunion special, two out of the three questions asked were from BPR readers. Nethra wanted to know who asked, "Where the h*ll is my chiffon" and Arion asked the infamous question of Guadalupe that you can see here.

Which BPR questions will make it to the Season 3 Reunion special? Tell us what you asked and tell us the name that you used. We'll all be watching to learn the answer but we'd love to celebrate with you that it was your question that was used.

Diana Eng's team wins the Yahoo Hack Day Top Prize! Thanks Viviane.

Now for something different! Two sisters have a podcast about project runway. Fun!

Macy's must love reality shows. Thanks Valerie.

We have a field report from the LA Event at Alpha Gear. This is Veteran Beeper JRT with his wife and Andrae and Nick. Don't they look great? JRT got there a little late but had a wonderful time. More reports are coming in!
















This made my day:

Dear Laura,

My boyfriend and I were planning on dressing up as Jeffrey and
Angela for Halloween. I found a bubble skirt on sale, but it's
woefully plain. Could you give me quick instructions on how to
make some fleurchons to Angela-ize it?

Thanks so much,
Sarah


Anyone else planning to dress as Project Runway personalities for Halloween? Surely we have some Tim Gunns!

We've Got Franco Fever!

Could that be the explanation of why we love Daniel Franco so much? Or could it be that his vibe is simply contagious?

Click here for a review that also features images of his recent collection presented at StyleLounge. You can click here to see a brief New York Daily News mention of his show. If you are a true Francophile, you'll want to read the Apparel News account as well as an Elle mention (that also features Malan Breton). And it seems that Nikon is both sponsor and muse to our BPR perennial.

May there never be a vaccine for Franco Fever!

This is a Competition for You, Too
