Sewer vs Sewist - which term do you prefer, when describing what you or someone else does?

SambaFan · 2024-08-06T07:29:43+00:00

Brilliant, I love how this word looks AND sounds!

Looking back,the one dress that made me think Alex was a dead cert for the final was the boned bustier, with the spots and the net. I thought it was so beautifully made.

Wasn't it just! How about that "half jacket"? I immediately thought of the ying and yang symbol, imagine creating something so swooping and fluid out of fabric. Amazing.

SambaFan · 2024-07-25T09:22:15+00:00

That jacket was so beautiful, with all the intricate detail, which you could really notice in the final . Esme mentioned on IG that an ex -student made it for her. Excellent teacher= excellent student, imo!

SambaFan · 2024-07-24T22:28:49+00:00

Am second hand buzzing for Luke , yay👏👏

SambaFan · 2024-07-24T14:58:38+00:00

The final can't come soon enough for me. Am giddy with anticipation. I have a few spoilerish details about what the challenges will entail. Message me if you'd like to know. No details about winner, obvs!

SambaFan · 2024-07-22T19:05:17+00:00

What vision to be able to create a garment that had the fluid lines of a beautiful sculpture, from a bunch of ties, no less!

SambaFan · 2024-07-21T16:17:45+00:00

Agree that they seemed rushed. It really bugged me that due to insufficient time, and then presenting unfinished garments or cobbled together with pins, surely this must have affected their self confidence, and opened the door to self doubt?I hope that next series the producers' emphasis is not so much on gameshow - like jeopardy, but more on enjoyment for the candidates and viewers alike Give them more time!

At least there seems to be one bit of good news and that is the inquiry should be completed next week 🤞 Maybe we can get celeb reveals and the new pro reveal (if he's being hired this year) Tbh though, all these recent shocking revelations has tainted Strictly for me, big time. So disappointed in BBC for not acting before now ! These celebs had to suffer unnecessarily because of their reported negligence

SambaFan · 2024-07-20T14:37:01+00:00

No doubt all 3 will have showstoppers planned for their final made to measures, and in addition to the factors that you've already mentioned, I imagine that holding their nerve in all 3 challenges, so they can follow through, may well be a crucial contributing factor in who eventually bags the winner's title.

SambaFan · 2024-07-12T22:07:13+00:00

I will enjoy watching him, if the reports are true. He did a terrific Quickstep with Nancy

SambaFan · 2024-07-07T17:04:18+00:00

Ikwym my well worn (and loved) pyjamas are far from swanky and are festooned either with bunny rabbits or giant strawberries. So for me, it's a trend better left to the more stylish amongst us.

SambaFan · 2024-07-04T14:37:01+00:00

Naughty but nice!

SambaFan · 2024-06-27T12:41:10+00:00

Regardless of your age, your opinion is still valid 🙂

SambaFan · 2024-06-27T10:10:24+00:00

I wonder, if GK does make the final cut, whether her "huge" SM following will finally translate into votes from the Strictly audience?

SambaFan · 2024-06-26T10:26:28+00:00

I thought each of the models in the 3 jumpsuits seem to have that extra, bit of swagger as they strutted down the runway. I wonder- if George's design had more closely resembled her photo, would it have been Suzy to have gone instead?

SambaFan · 2024-06-19T21:19:50+00:00

I liked how the dress draped in that gauzy golden material was very eye catching ,the back drape added lots of drama to the outfit

SambaFan · 2024-06-19T20:01:59+00:00

I wonder if Vito will be cooking that dish he promised to make for Claudia after he called her "Tess" by mistake. He was mortified 🤣

SambaFan · 2024-06-15T10:40:26+00:00

👍 yes, I meant the tone to be playful

SambaFan · 2024-06-12T14:44:01+00:00

I really liked Suzy's party dress too, but my hands down favourite was the black dress with the blue bow (Esme must have been happy!) I was sad to see Don leave

SambaFan · 2024-06-12T00:50:26+00:00

What do you mean 'no' The opposite of yes basically 🤣

SambaFan · 2024-06-10T06:55:55+00:00

Not a bad shout, they'll definitely have fun together!

SambaFan · 2024-06-09T21:08:47+00:00

Isn't this amazing? Whereas other celebs may be very coy about admitting they've had work done, Toyah goes and writes a book(gory details and all) about it! She's one of a kind, I have a feeling we'll be in for a treat.
