Oh I didn't mean that in defense of My Big Fat Gypsy Quince dress. The multiple mentions just reminded me of it.

I loved Bradon's story but I also think Kate and Dom got robbed. Helen was WAY TOO lucky to have immunity because that was a poo poo garment. Not that Ms. Midriff Exmilitary was any better. They're both on borrowed time. What a clusterfuck. And I see next week is ANOTHER unconventional materials challenge?!

I thought that Karen's outfit was way worse than Jeremy's - what the hell was going on with her pants? They looked bunched up and sagging on the top. Why hasn't she been in the bottom yet? Miranda needs to go. "Because of my military background and aesthetic, I decided to make this cropped top and pencil skirt for this bow tie/parachute/diamonds challenge."

Did anyone else get freaked out by Modern Family dude clean-shaven?  I did not recognize him for a good 30 seconds. With that said, I think Dom is really underrated by the judges/producers.

Oh! I remembered the other thing. Yes, Miranda's was garbage but what got me was the fact that Heidi was fussing over the lining of the jacket that "we'll never see" when I remember designers in past seasons get so much praise for including a lining (that we'll never see).

I honestly believe that Dom was robbed last night. That cocktail dress was really cute and Dom has a great eye for styling. Bradon's outfit was fine, but the material he used to make the jacket and shorts just seemed too heavy for the top and looks kinda itchy. Hispter Bettie Page just needs to go, because all she does is make crop tops and she's not even good at it.

winner! Bradon and this deserves a second look:  Top Dom  Clear winner. The color combination was so nicely done. The hem was the right length, great construction. Kate  Look's like Michelle's aesthetic from last season. The colors and inspiration of "the huntress" Alexandria  Justin   Alexander  Clown Collar Ken  hooker Karen  This crotch is an enigma wrapped in polkadots Helen  The suspenders of sadness are thankful for their immunity Bottom Miranda  Not only is it the same design, the shirt looks awful. Like it was at a regular length but then pinned under at the last minute (I'm not kidding I wrote that before I saw the episode) Jeremy  This was alright. Not good, but not terrible. Sue / Scary Bradshaw  Oh, right… the bow ties… I'll just make a 5-point harness out of them and call it good OUT Sanrdo  and because I cannot resist showing fabric-poop:  Good riddance.

I keep staring at the crotch of Karen's pants to figure out what's going on. Maybe it's like a skort but with pants so like skants, with a built in belly pooch?

The cleavage praise was really bad as the model had none, and might as well have been wearing pasties. Or emptied Yoplait pots. That, along with the gratuitous clumsy hawking of their sponsors and Ken's attempt to be the littlest pimp made for a grating episode. Bradon really should have won again, at the moment there's no-one close to him.

(She was lucky to be in the middle this week though.) A couple of Bradon's looks have been just okay; I don't think he deserves to have two wins under his belt by any measure.

Dom's was good, the spiked wall paper dress looked like it would work as catwalk fashion (in a different material) but the dress that Bradon came out with was simply more interesting and attractive to me. Plus it felt more complete a piece. Dom's was all about the top half. If there had been just a little something below the belt that kept her sculptural idea flowing then that could have put her top in my eyes. And that's kind of what I've been seeing from her so far. Strong ideas with something missing to complete it. Dom and Bradon should certainly be finalists though.

Jeremy's dress was great, but the team as a whole should have gotten a much lower score owing to the fact that Karen's dress looked like 4th grader cosplaying an extra in the Nightmare Before Christmas. Guys I really hate Karen. Coconut Indian posted:I didn't catch this episode but I saw the photos that TLO put up. Did Sandro just come in say sorry and leave? He apologized. Almost everyone hugged him then talked poo poo in the intercut confessional interview as well they should have. Pics up tonight

I have to agree with others, the cleavage on the winning dress was awful. I actually wasn't too wild about that whole team's look. I liked second place better.

Are we done with unconventional now? Please say yes. winner! Jeremy  The stripees are pretty cool, but if the model weren't an A cup this would just be ridiculous. Top Kate  eh. S'alright. Karen  The judges had to have been playing a joke when they praised this right? Bradon  Robbed. Alexander  super cool Miranda  good comeback. Not a mid drift in sight Dom  wallpaper and goji berry… its a great look Helen  it's boring but decent Justin  BLECH! It's a good thing they weren't on the bottom because this is awful. Bottom Alexandria  I just about died when she said "pet the kitty" Ken  OOOOoooohhh.. we have a new villain! TLo said it best "Bitch all you want, but if you can’t deliver, then you’re just a bitch." OUT Sue  Your model sewed her own dress while waiting to go on. Honestly, I don't understand people that go onto this show and think they can get away with not knowing how to use a machine or can't make pants or a sleeve!

"I can sew, just not with these MACHINES!  " If your model has to sew herself into your look to keep her tits in, you more than deserve the auf.Dom keeps getting robbed. Maybe she'll win next week?

I don't think Justin has the chops to win the whole thing, but I am glad that Tim Gunn used his Tim Gunn Save to Tim Gunn Save Justin if for not other reason than we won't have to hear about the Tim Gunn Save every episode Tim Gunn is my favorite part of this show, but listening to Heidi hamfistedly talk about the Tim Gunn Save before each runway was almost painful.

My wife speaks ASL and is a huge huge Justin fan but even she was like 'god, god no don't do this!'. He's just going to lose again and it's just going to be harder. He's pretty clearly behind just about everyone else left. That said the pleasant surprise last night was the outfit I liked by the most actually winning. That never seems to happen anymore.

You know the model that the sustainability guy had first and didn't send to make up or hair? I think she's a bad luck charm. Go back and see how many designers she's worked with who had awful designs. Here are all of her appearances so far. Miranda, of all people, had the best luck with her.

Do they know which model they're getting before they start designing? Or is the first time they see their model when they come in for the first fitting?

They had a short lived show about the models and in that the designers got to choose their models on a weekly basis. Not sure if that changed at all.

Well, now we know what happens when you give them a day off... winner! Alexandria  Giant LOAD in her pants is only out shined by that hair and eye makeup. What the hell  Top Alexander  awesome, good fit Jeremy  Yawn Miranda  cute, no mid drift, no jacket, no 40s anywhere Dom  The collar is the only interesting thing on here. I like that she used a print though Helen  Same dull color and technique that hasn't wowed the judges yet… I'll just keep using it! Kate  lacquered Pregnancy dress??? Bradon  She looks pregnant with a melted box of crayons. How this wasn't in the bottom, I do not know Bottom Karen  Karen made something I like… this is disturbing me. The styling is awful though Ken  A different print would have worked better - it looks too much like animal print! SAVED Justin  The bottom just killed this for me Also: FROTHY, FOAMING VAGINA !

Yeah I can't believe Karen's urine ombré tarp didn't get auf'd, personally. And Kate not being in the bottom 3 is stupefying. I don't mind Justin getting the save at all but it all felt fairly well-orchestrated, didn't it?

I really liked Jeremy's dress - the letter detail stuff sounded corny at first but I thought it looked great on the runway. Maybe I'm biased since he was my episode 1 pick, but I liked it.SHUPS 4 DETH posted:Yeah I can't believe Karen's urine ombré tarp didn't get auf'd, personally. And Kate not being in the bottom 3 is stupefying. Agreed on all points here - Kate sliding out of the bottom 3 and Ken being in there really surprised me, although it really shouldn't have with how much confessional time Ken was getting. Kinda glad the Tim Gunn save's off the table for the rest of the season now, it being announced meant that it would have to be used or people would be upset, and I feel like there aren't that many times something like that's justified. I don't think Justin's going all the way to fashion week, but he seemed like a really nice guy and I'm glad he'll be around longer.

Hooo boy! Quite the turn about tonight, except for poor Miranda. We're down to 10 and that means that "not terrible" will get you out. Hey, she outlasted Unicorn by many weeks. That brings me to...  FASHION WEEK  Fashion week starts Thursday Sept 5, the Project Runway show will be Friday morning. This means that they have time for one more elimination to bring the total number showing to 9. Remember that according to the show, only 3 show at fashion week, so we will also be seeing 6 "decoy collections." Last year the actual show did not include the designers coming out before each collection and no name was assigned to any collection. The speeches seen on TV were prerecorded without an audience. For this reason, I would reason that showing the fashion week collections here would not constitute a spoiler since it would all be speculation over who did what. Of course, I leave it to the mods to decide for sure. In the mean time, spoiler tag that poo poo! Pictures of tonight's shoe-gasim will be up tomorrow for the normal coal raking.
