Really? I agree that there must be constraints for the sake of entertainment, it is a TV show, after all. I also agree that resourcefulness is an interesting trait for a designer. But I can't see how a top designer should be able to handle materials such as paper and plastic, when fabrics are just plain superior in almost every scenario. I feel like there should be some kind of punishment for clothes that resort to gimmicky techniques (such as hot gluing), with the obvious exception for costumes.
I'm pretty sure the fashion world is full of shitlords. There are way too many media pieces about it already, The Devil Wears Prada comes to mind. But, then, it's still a TV show, and it's undeniable that couch potatoes are a big part of the public for reality TV. When the show started pandering to fats, it had to choose between staying true to fashion, or staying true to reality TV, unfortunately. It'll be completely lost when they decide to make a plus-size spin-off.
