Joe Zee's All on the Line Returns with Designer Drama, Powder Blue Velvet

“They’re leggings,” explains designer Angelo Lambrou, fondling a mud-colored puddle of jersey. “They’re awful,” concludes Joe Zee. The peppy Elle creative director doesn’t pull any punches in All on the Line, the reality-TV series in which he attempts to help fashion designers rescue their ailing businesses. In the show’s second season, which premieres tonight on Sundance Channel, Zee kicks off each episode with a kind of sartorial quickfire challenge: the embattled designer must whip up something on the spot (or at least in 72 hours) for a special guest style arbiter such as Rachel Roy or Mark Badgley and James Mischka.
