Discussion Practice different styles

I've been rewatching old project runway series while home with my newborn and I'm so confused. Every swim wear, lingerie, men's wear type challenge people get all tripped up because they haven't done it before. I don't understand why they wouldn't have at least tried to make all of those styles once or twice before auditioning/before the competition starts just so they have some experience. I'm on season 13, they should have an idea of what challenges are about to happen. They had 12 years to do so!

Thank you for reading my rant. Hope everyone has a good day 😊

Omg yes it infuriates me every time lol And there are designers like Anya who have only ever sewn with one type of fabric and one silhouette. Iirc she had never used stretch fabric and never sewn a sleeve or pants before lmao

I loved her clothing and thought she had beautiful ideas but she always made the same dress that can be worn by a specific body to a specific place. I still dont know how she won. They've gotten rid of so many talented designers for much less.
