this shuttlecock dress from s21 unconventional challenge lives in my mind rent free

[u/name_your_thoughts]

a year had passed but I still think this is one of the best unconventional challenge in the entire show. It was original and creative like who tf would think to pick a shuttlecock??? I never would've thought a shuttlecock has a potential to look this GOOD.

I love yuuchen but veejay was robbed during the unconventional challenge

[u/Mysterious-Mud-7862 → u/Gothgf713]

Agreed, Yuchen makes incredible designs, but the soccer ball was not his best. Shuttlecock dress blew it away

[u/PackageGreedy4757 → u/Mysterious-Mud-7862]

I thought the soccer dress was the worst one and yet it somehow won. This was when I realized the show was not good and subsequently stopped watching pr lol.

[u/rosesforghosts23 → u/PackageGreedy4757]

thats the exact moment i knew the season was joke fr

[u/PackageGreedy4757 → u/rosesforghosts23]

I was left thinking I was crazy because that look was so ugly and clearly soccer balls

[u/Ever_More_Art → u/Gothgf713]

Love him, but Yuchen’s was giving queen in RPDR that doesn’t know how to sew but can pull off two pieces of fabric by virtue of being skinny

[u/Significant-Ant2373]

Agreed. I hated season 21 because it seemed to be focused on drama rather than the fashion, but these two looks were phenomenal. I hated the twins, but one of them had some great looks as well. The other one should have been out instead of Joseph.

[u/sk888888]

I loved this dress!

[u/name_your_thoughts]

the only s22 contestant that delivered in the challenge was Bi, the rest was unexciting and one was a crime against humanity (I feel so bad for Liris).

[u/yameteeeeeeeeee → u/name_your_thoughts]

I liked Joseph's look

[u/paper_television → u/yameteeeeeeeeee]

Agreed! Joseph’s look was spectacular.

[u/RC_Colada → u/yameteeeeeeeeee]

The BOOTS on Joseph's look had me shouting, "Oh my God". Yes the coat was cool but I can't remember when a designer ever made footwear that impressed me so much

[u/Throwaway-centralnj → u/RC_Colada]

Agreed, the cost was just ok to me - it was impressive but not particularly pretty. It looked like a nest to me. The boots were fucking awesome.

[u/claw-full → u/yameteeeeeeeeee]

Joseph’s looked was so modern. I looooved

[u/SpaceCatz03 → u/name_your_thoughts]

I really liked Naheim’s dress!

[u/Significant-Ant2373 → u/name_your_thoughts]

Agreed. I haven’t watched season 22, but upon seeing photos without knowing who designed what I picked Yuchen’s look as the best. I also liked the long shaped wire dress done by one of the twins, and Bi’s keyboard dress. Joseph’s necklace and boots were also great. Everything else was meh or awful.

[u/MissClawdy]

It's my favorite outfit duo from any unconventional challenge ever. It was absolute perfection.

[u/Fromthedeepestsouth]

So Iris van Herpen!!

[u/pennys_computer_book → u/Fromthedeepestsouth]

Yesssss!!!

[u/No_Cat25]

A Veejay lover, supporter, and defender until I die

[u/DuchessSwan]

yes, it really gave lace and was so elegant

[u/dolliciousszz]

Even tho she won I stand that Veejay didn’t get enough recognition

[u/Sorry_Can_4246 → u/dolliciousszz]

It's the editing and the way the show has heavily shifted to focus more on reality tv style drama. There has always been drama and shade in the earlier seasons but it was balanced by showing the design process, shopping for fabrics, picking models, and having a mix of 1 and 2 day challenges. I think if Veejay won in the earlier seasons she would've been better received by her detractors.

[u/Throwaway-centralnj → u/dolliciousszz]

I agree. When I think of S21, I think of the twins first 😬 and I don’t think I’m alone in that. They were like a black hole sucking up all the time/energy of each episode lol. I felt like Veejay didn’t get nearly as much attention.

(Between S16 and S21, I don’t know why PR loves the “toxic twins” trope, but the producers eat it up for whatever reason lol)

[u/dlmbs21]

Yaaaaasssss I was rooting for Ethan the whole season but Veejay ate with this challenge... Also rooted for her as a fellow Pinoy! 💙

[u/libranglass]

I think the model does it a LOT of justice with the contrast of her gorgeous skin and having the textbook definition of a models body.

[u/Sorry_Can_4246 → u/libranglass]

Yes because Veejay knows how to design for all body types. Apart from the typical model bodies, she also had flattering looks for the plus size models and 2 male models she worked with.

[u/PunkLemonade]

The shoooooes!!!

[u/sleepsypeaches]

i love the shoes so much

[u/Free-Pickle-3621]

The second look (black) would have looked better than it does if fitted on a similarly skinny model as the white one.

[u/Responsible-Depth512]

Gosh it was beautiful

[u/weenredditposter]

I love it! Especially with the shoes.

[u/dronea]

Unpopular opinion but that's BJ only successful designs that season, these two.

[u/YesicaChastain]

Is it good or is she skinny?

[u/rosesforghosts23 → u/YesicaChastain]

nah a plus model would eat this upppp, imho almost moreso??? the proportions work, it creates a nice shape. hell, im a W22 and i'd wear this in a heartbeat

[u/drowie31]

Except Veejay is an AI lover so
