Is a designer going to seriously break down in every episode of PRC this season? I'm starting to think of it as designer torture rather than fashion challenge. It's difficult to concentrate on the clothes. At least the show illustrates how hard it is to design and make clothes, but I really think the challenges are unreasonable.

A BIT ABOUT MYSELF
Following a career change, I started a business, BoastToastie Design & Production, but unfortunately, it didn't last (check out the archives for the story!). In this diary, I discuss the ups and downs of starting a company, how to balance a possibly risky endeavour with earning a living, and I interview local designers for their advice. I love to hear from readers, so feel free to e-mail me.
