			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-16456" src="http://s14.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep12_2.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep12_2" width="250" height="175" /></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Since Bravo&#8217;s <em>The Fashion Show</em> is still charting its own course away from comparisons to <a href="http://www.shefinds.com/leanne-marshall-for-bluefly-oh-yes-there-are-petals/"><em>Project Runway</em></a>, the second part of the finale used a reunion show to review the season and make us wait one more hour to find out the winner.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-16455" src="http://s14.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep12_1.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep12_1" width="250" height="181" /></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">But unlike most of these raucous Bravo reunion episodes, the format was highly orchestrated and didn&#8217;t feel very organic. Contestants spoke in turn, and it didn&#8217;t seem like it was really fun to get back together.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What was worse, the three finalists&#8211;Daniella, Anna, and James Paul&#8211;sat through retrospectives of their journeys on the show, anxiously waiting while Isaac, Kelly, Fern, and Harper&#8217;s Bazaar EIC Glenda Bailey bantered about Haven&#8217;s love of <a href="http://www.shefinds.com/tag/shorts/">shorts</a>.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal"><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-16457" src="http://s13.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep12_3-150x150.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep12_3" width="150" height="150" /><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-16458" src="http://s13.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep12_4-150x150.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep12_4" width="150" height="150" /></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">In the end, though, each of the three finalists won something. James Paul, <a href="http://www.shefinds.com/bravos_new_fashion_show_is_gunn_shy/">whose dress won praise in the first episode</a>, was revealed as the best-selling item on the site. It even sold out. Daniella won the $10,000 Judges&#8217; Choice Award. And of course, <a href="http://www.shefinds.com/the-fashion-show-recap-robots-cowboys-and-pleats-take-over-cipriani/">Anna&#8217;s &#8220;to die for&#8221; collection</a> took home the $125,000 grand prize with 56% of the audience vote.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It&#8217;s available for sale on <a title="The Fashion Show, Anna's winning collection" href="http://www.shopbybravo.com/b2c/PK/ecom/ecomEnduser/items/xt_itemCatalogNF.aspx?store=&amp;currLevel=1&amp;siteId=0&amp;lValue1=FashionShw&amp;lValue2=Week+1" target="_blank">BravoTV.com.</a></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Anna&#8217;s use of color and long, pretty silhouettes were some of the things that gave her viewer raves, and this season&#8217;s <a title="maxi dresses" href="http://www.shefinds.com/buying-guides/dresses-guide/maxi-dresses/">maxi dresses</a> follow that same aesthetic. The <a title="T-Bags long dress" href="http://www.pronto.com/user/productRedirection.do?merchantProductId=1258263116&amp;parentId=8a2eed44-eb2a-4803-a7ea-67b04f3aefdd&amp;pageLocation=papi&amp;partnerID=20090423-SHEFINDS&amp;trackingID=user00" target="_blank">T-Bags Long Dress</a> ($225) is reminiscent of Anna&#8217;s winning piece via its soft, colorblock jersey and ruffled tiers coming off a halter top. The Victoria&#8217;s Secret <a title="Victoria's Secret Bra Top maxi dress" href="http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-1434713-10537318?sid=Halter+Bra+Top+maxi+dress+in+solids&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww2.victoriassecret.com%2Fcommerce%2Fapplication%2FprodDisplay%2F%3Fnamespace%3DproductDisplay%26origin%3DonlineProductDisplay.jsp%26event%3Ddisplay%26prnbr%3DEB-227534&amp;cm_mmc=CJ-_-1345633-_-1434713-_-Product%20Catalog&amp;cjsku=EB-227534092L">Halter Bra Top Maxi Dress</a> ($108) also uses the halter design to create a feminine neckline, showing off sexy shoulders.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The final four designers put it all out on the runway at Cipriani Wall Street for part one of the finale of Bravo&#8217;s <em>The Fashion Show</em>. The twist was that only three of the four would make it to the final viewer&#8217;s choice vote, which by the time you read this, will be closed.</p>
<p>Next week, the winner is crowned during a reunion show.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15662" src="http://s12.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep11_daniella.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep11_daniella" width="176" height="250" /></p>
<p>Daniella&#8217;s &#8220;soft robot&#8221; collection was a combination of leather, epaulets, and femininity that judges described as fashionable. The medieval androgyny she was aiming for would have worked if the construction was better &#8211; her only real criticism from the panel.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15664" src="http://s13.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep11_jp.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep11_jp" width="175" height="250" /></p>
<p>James Paul&#8217;s collection was equally abstract, with his inspiration coming from western wear. None on the pieces were really reminiscent of cowboy couture, but in usual JP fashion, his muted color palette and textures won raves from Isaac and co.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15665" src="http://s12.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep11_reco.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep11_reco" width="171" height="250" /></p>
<p>The circle skirt jacket from Reco was just one of the bright, glam pieces in his Aztec goddess-inspired collection. He did everything from separates to a wedding gown, but the absence of detailed designs pushed him out of the final four.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15667" src="http://s11.shefinds.com/sf/files/fashionshow_ep11_anna.jpg" alt="fashionshow_ep11_anna" width="173" height="250" /></p>
<p>Anna, however, was the crowd favorite. While knocked as being the least cohesive, her collection was bright and wearable, incorporating her successful pleating as well as a floral palette that won raves in previous episodes.</p>
<p><a title="J. Crew silk Lorelai dress" href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=T*L/j1OJQXY&amp;offerid=170450.779108889&amp;type=10&amp;subid="><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15669" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px;" src="http://s13.shefinds.com/sf/files/jcrew_strapless.jpg" alt="jcrew_strapless" width="173" height="250" /></a><a href="http://www.pronto.com/user/productRedirection.do?merchantProductId=1185089578&amp;parentId=0385d57c-aa6c-4534-a117-e8188a9eec74&amp;pageLocation=papi&amp;partnerID=20090423-SHEFINDS&amp;trackingID=user00"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15707" title="donnamorgandress" src="http://s11.shefinds.com/sf/files/donnamorgandress-189x300.jpg" alt="donnamorgandress" width="158" height="250" /></a></p>
<p>Although Kelly Rowland rarely delivers any sage fashion advice, she did point out that knee-length dresses are a staple of any burgeoning wardrobe. J. Crew&#8217;s strapless floral <a title="J. Crew silk Lorelai dress" href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=T*L/j1OJQXY&amp;offerid=170450.779108889&amp;type=10&amp;subid=">Lorelei dress</a> ($250) is an ode to Anna&#8217;s bright, floral prints. And for a more office-appropriate look, this <a href="http://www.pronto.com/user/productRedirection.do?merchantProductId=1185089578&amp;parentId=0385d57c-aa6c-4534-a117-e8188a9eec74&amp;pageLocation=papi&amp;partnerID=20090423-SHEFINDS&amp;trackingID=user00">Donna Morgan Jersey Dress</a> ($79 from $118) can be jazzed up with a <a href="http://www.shefinds.com/buying-guides/fall-fashions/the-four-belts-you-must-own/">statement belt</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>
