Dubious Yawnur Awards


The much-anticipated First Annual Dubious Yawnur Awards were handed out last week at the beautiful downtown YMCA cafetorium. Many distinguished nominees and guests were in attendance.

The winner in the"In the Mood" category (for garments made out of traditional fabrics), as determined by the poll on Project Yawnur, was Angela Keslar. She won for the outfit she made for that ever-busy au pair art student who moonlights as both a dogwalker and a streetwalker.


Angela was so shocked that she won!


In the "Not in the Mood" poll (for garments made out of non-traditional materials), Vincent Libretti took home the top honors. His barely-walking art canvas edged out Wendy Pepper's candy and balloon bikini.


In his acceptance speech, Vincent said this award meant a lot to him. He can now list this accomplishment on his resume in hope that one day he could dress more wives of d-list nominees.


A dejected Santino Rice slinkered out of the cafetorium after finding out he didn't win. He came in a close second to Angela in the In the Mood category.

Congratulations, Angela and Vincent. Isn't it just kismet that brought you two back together again?

The Dubious Yawnur Awards Nominations



It's time to nominate the Fugliest clothes ever seen on any season of Project Runway in the "In the Mood" category. Unlike the first category, these clothes were made from fabrics either purchased at Mood or were provided to the designers by Banana Republic or Macy's.

The nominations will close on Wednesday (2/28) at Noon Eastern.

Don't forget, you can still vote in the first poll for the "Not in the Mood" category. That voting will also close on Wednesday (2/28) at Noon Eastern. (Click here to cast your vote in that category.) Later that afternoon, we will begin to vote on this new "In the Mood" category.

The Dubious Yawnur Awards Nominations

Since we're in the middle of the Awards Season, I thought I'd create an award for the Fugliest designs ever seen on all three seasons of Project Runway.

Introducing the 1st Annual Dubious Yawnur Awards.

To help compile this list of nominees, I'm going to need a little help from you.

Just to be fair to the designers, I am going to create two separate categories. I don't think you should compare making a dress out of recycled mylar with traditional fabric. That's why for the first week's nomination, we will only nominate outfits made out of non-traditional materials. Or what I would call the "Not in the Mood" category. This includes: Season 1's Innovation/Grocery Store Challenge, Season 1's Design a Collection/Modernistic Vintage Clothing Challenge, Season 2's Clothes Off Your Back Challenge, Season 2's Flower Power/Garden Party Challenge, Season 3's Innovation/Wall-to-Wall Challenge, and finally, Season 3's Waste Not/Recycling Challenge.

The nominations will be open until next Wednesday (2/21) at Noon Eastern. At that time, we will begin nominations for the "In the Mood" category. This category will cover all of the other challenges where the designers had control over the choice of fabrics that they either bought from Mood or were given to them by Banana Republic or Macy's.

Later that Wednesday afternoon, the voting for the first category, "Not in the Mood", will begin. The voting will continue until the following Wednesday (2/28) at Noon Eastern. That's also when the nominations for the second category, "In the Mood", will close. And we'll start to vote on that category.
