Is there a breeze in here?


Whoa! Ping, you are officially on my list. I was willing to go with your cuckoo designs as an honest expression of your aesthetic. But being a little cuckoo is no excuse for stupidity. You need to use the fit model the good lord (or Tim Gunn) gave you. Because the only place you could sell that booty-bearing dress is Las Vegas on Halloween (the sexiest day of the year, yo). But what has set me off, is your sudden inability to understand the English language. Really, you didn't understand the challenge? What a crock. Michael Kors isn't having any of it and neither am I. Lady, I am watching you...

I thought the challenge itself was pretty brilliant and one of my favorite ones yet. It was clever and allowed some real creativity. Pamela's losing dress was pretty horribly executed but at least she had good intentions. Personally, I would have given Jesus the heave-ho for arrogantly disregarding Tim's advice two weeks in a row. Foolish mortals, when will they learn.

As for the top three, the judges could have picked any one of them and I wouldn't have argued. At the time, I preferred Mila's dress but now that it's been a few days, I agree Jay Nicolas' ability to spin potato sack into a luxurious, feathery dream is pretty amazing.

While neither made top 3, Seth Aaron and Emilio are quickly become my favorites.

See all the dresses on the Lifetime Project Runway site.

Thank you for not posting a pic of the model walking the other direction on the runway, K! This blog would've quickly become rated "R" (for RIDICULOUS!!) Silly Ping.

I loved Jay's dress too. Would totally buy it (if my legs were about 2 feet longer). I like Emilio a lot too (and not just because his name is awesome), but I am a little concerned that he might do the same thing over and over with the strips of patched striped dresses (say that five times fast) :)

I hear ya with the stripes. That could get old pretty quick. Hopefully he has a few other tricks up his sleeves.

Jay's was stunning, I love Anthony's too. Mila is so full of herself, i hated the way she acted when her model chose someone else

I'm totally with Tim Gunn on this one: Mila got robbed. Jay Nicolas' outfit was more suited for the ice rink than the runway. The judges appear to still be slumbering under the spell of last season's snoozefest.
