GRRRRRRR!
I wrote a blog... I was half way through when my browser froze and shut down. 3 hours. Gone. And I'm sick. And stressed out about moving to NYC in 29 days. So please forgive me, I just don't have time to re-write it.
So here's the Cliff Notes version:
* This is a very predictable episode. Boring even...
* They go to the Getty Museum to be inspired for their next garment:
Tim Gunn: "This is how I want my boudoir to look like."
* They sketch.
* They shop at Mood.
* Thank you, Mooooood!
* Tim Gunn critiques:
Christopher: "I was inspired by a rock!"
Tim Gunn: "Truthfully, I just don't get you."
"Listen lady. STOP with the pelts, okay?
Been there, done that, bought the PETA t-shirt!"
Carol Hannah: "I miss Logan..."
Christopher: "Me too... I miss his bacon in the morning."
Carol Hannah: "...Yeah, me too..."
THE RUNWAY:
Nina Garcia: "I HATE when they put me between two super models.
Thank Baby Versace for the frump next to me.
Maybe nobody will notice that my dress' neckline is a tragedy."
ALTHEA:
Blech. Since Lifetime hasn't posted the inspiration pieces on their site (I'm sure its a copyright issue) there's nothing to compare these looks to.
Either way - this look is... wow. It's just not good. It's sloppy and poorly put together and the judges hate it. It looks like her model has loose skin flapping on her sides. NOT a good look at all! And yet... Althea is going to Fashion Week. I swear her middle name is "Bush" or something... (I KID! No, actually, I don't....)
CHRISTOPHER:
OH my! His rock dress isn't totally awful! I don't like the corset thingy in the middle but Katie wears this really well and I like parts of it. To me, it beats Althea's disaster, but ... Christopher is NOT going to Fashion Week. In a surprise move, he cries. I know, I didn't see that coming either. (Sarcasm!)
CAROL HANNAH:
The judges love it... I hate it. I think it makes Lisa look HUGE. From the waist down, this dress is a huge miss for me. Why does she look pregnant? If this dress makes someone who is a size 0 look big, THAT IS A PROBLEM. I'm a 4 and I'd look like a dump truck in this. BOOOO!
That aside, Carol Hannah is going to Fashion Week and I'm glad for her. I like her stuff and I've grown fond of her garments on Etsy. I'd like her to win, but I'm pretty sure that this bitch-- I mean, girl, will...
IRINA:
The judges HATED how this look was styled and I have to agree. The headband is soooo severe. I like the dress, although it seems like a predictable piece from Irina at this point. Glad to see she hung up the rabbit pelts though...
Irina is going to Fashion Week... which means...
GORDANA:
Have to say... love this in the front. The back is a little frumpy with the big zipper, but this front is just heavenly. Plus Matar rocks it.
But because Gordana hasn't been as strong throughout the competition, she isn't going to Fashion Week either. I've friended her on Facebook and so should you. She has great designs going on in her world! Love it! So even though Fashion Week didn't happen, she's still designing and doing well. YAY!
So... guess what happens on 30 minutes of Models of the Runway?
Katie: "I'm screwed."
Matar: "I hear you."
My two favorites are auf'd... Katie and Matar. Katie posted a tweet stating that she's already walked in Bryant Park for former Project Runway contestant, Malan Breton and that we're not to feel sorry for her! Well, too bad. I do anyways. And for Matar.
So this week is Part 1 of 2 of the finale. I'm really hoping it's not boring. REALLY HOPING.
And speaking of Part 1 of 2... I will be posting my NEW WEB SERIES this week! My first guest... PROJECT RUNWAY'S KOJII HELNWEIN! Watch us make it work!
