Elisa Jimenez shows Fall 2008 collection

She's gone, but certainly not forgotten. Elisa Jimenez, made famous on 'Project Runway' for using saliva to measure her polymorphic clothing, showed off her Fall 2008 collection at Manhattan venue Touch early Sunday morning.

Newsday scored a seat and also an interview with the designer, combined into a video, below:




Outside of the roughly two and a half minutes of posted video, some, let's just call it, very interesting (if not totally wacky) stuff went down at the show.

You want the highlights?

  • Fellow 'Runway' designer Victorya Hong sat in the front row. It should be noted, in spite of her icy exterior on the show, she was the ONLY fellow designer in attendance. Maybe 9 a.m. was just too early for the rest...

  • There wasn't a proper runway. The audience was arranged in semi-circles, the "models" walked in the center, most posing and doing some sort of improv performance or dance, before heading back out. Most likely a fashion week first.

  • Each chair had a blown up surgical glove on it with 'bless' written on it.... backwards. Turns out, Elisa only writes backwards. Each glove was meant to be a 'touch' from the designer to the audience. Hmmm.

  • The show was a theatrical representation of 'The Hunger World,' which Jimenez called a pseudo-fictitious world she started working on some 18 years ago. I still haven't figured out what this Hunger World is, but from looking at the program and speaking to Jimenez, I know that her models were meant to be 'marionettes' and 'puppeteers,' ranging from a 'Little Worm-Thing' to a 'Honey-Giver' to a 'Mistress of Tenderness.' See if you can figure out who's who in the video.

  • As a final note, Jimenez has NOT watched any 'Runway' yet, so she isn't sure if the way in which she's portrayed is accurate. Talented designer? Check. Sweet, yet a bit spacey? Check. Still hand sewing and using oils, herbs and saliva on the designs? Check. I'm going to go with.... YEA!

its so interesting to see how 'project runway' obviously edited elisa to appear so much more 'cooky' (to quote michael kors) than she actually is. when, in fact, she is just a multi-disciplinary artist with an artists' view of fashion, rather than your more conventional every day fashion designers.

all the follow-up research i've done on elisa makes me respect her 500 times more than project runway ever could have made me. im fascinated by this woman!

fresh air, my friends...

I am open minded, but come on!I am happy for her that she came back from such a horrable accident, but who would wear those clothes? I do wish her luck.........(I hope she is no longer spit marking...LOL!)

Elisa Jimenez is great, very creative, talented, and take the risks of creating something new... which sometimes the jurors forget...
I want to know if there is a fan page for her work... I would like to know what else she is creating now.
I am impressed. She should have won.. or maybe she was just too much for that kind of show... with mediocre minds as jurors....
Sometimes that can be the case.. and this is the proof!

elisa is cool and really knows what she is doing with fabrics.She has a runway style of high art and her clothes, like the hunger world are never full. (overdone).to understand the hunger world of desire and want you have to get dirty.Some people walk the runway-elisa is reinventing the runway as a walk to the hunger world. and

It's truly visionary. My favorite part of this video is towards the end where Elisa says that so long as she knows that someone else out there likes it-- than she's done a good job. She really is speaking the truth. The comment below me speaking about the poor manner in which her character was edited is a good voice to listen to. I have met and worked with Elisa in person and she is wonderfully inspirational. #GoYou!
