The "Project Runway" Diaries, #4

Interesting, I never knew that black was one of the most challenging colors to work with. I would have thought the opposite, but I guess that goes to show you how very little I know about clothing design.

Still, it's curious to me because I always think of black as a wardrobe staple. That's not just me, right? Granted, on several occasions when I've gone shopping with one of my friends she has scolded me, saying, "If I see something black hanging on the rack, I just know you're going to look at it." But black is a basic for everyone, isn't it? If only Tim Gunn were here to set me straight.
