    Despite the fasct that it came after America\'s Next Top Model, Manhunt and the like, this show has a more brainy sense to it.

    Especially in this first episode, it was a great idea to really test the contestant\'s creativity and skills by having them pick up clothing \"fabric\" from a supermarket.

    I hate to admit it, being fashion forward myself (at least I think so), I know I would have thought out of the box ENOUGH as had Austin, choosing corn leaves. The first time I saw it, I was thinking what I would get if I were there and I was thinking of placemats... which in retrospect, is kinda boring, I think.moreless
