�Holy crap�� that was my first thought at hearing what this challenge was. My next thought (and it lasted for the full hour) was �impossible.� I know that Project Runway has thrown some seemingly impossible challenges to the designers before (wedding dress challenge anyone?), but this is beyond ridiculous! Before I go further, I just want to state that I love the thought of this challenge. To design an Haute Couture dress is not something most of the PR designers have ever done and it�s a great challenge to really make them think outside their design �box.�Okay�now back to how impossible this challenge is! I can completely see the designers being able to make something that looks couture, but to be judged on the hand-executed details and finishing is almost too much for even Project Runway to ask of a designer. Just designing and constructing an evening gown in 2 days is a task in itself (I assume that�s why there were teams for the Ms. USA challenge?), but to make them hand finish all the details, whew! That�s a lot to ask. I will honestly say that I don�t know how I would have fared had I been around for this challenge. I almost had a nervous breakdown just watching and thinking about this challenge! Just kidding�but seriously, this is so beyond anything I�m used to designing, I think I would have freaked out a bit. Oh well, guess I�ll see how I fare when I tackle this challenge for my �AUF�d Runway� episode, but that will have to wait until I return from fashion week next week! How exciting is that? I can�t wait to see the other designers and watch the final fashion shows! Oh�and I can�t wait for the reunion episode either, I�ve got a few questions for someone, but I�ll get to that later�
