We Like Project Runway

[Monty]

I want Kenley to go home, but I have to admit that she did a good job on this one. Her aesthetic goes well with the instructions to throw in a bunch of neon crap.

[Umlaut]

I expected Kenley to win this challenge, but was happy that Austin did. This is a new phenomena I like to call "Meryl-ing".

[MrDys]

Damn. Ugh. I really like what Kenley made.

[smartbunny]

Yeah I really thought Kenley was going to win.

Also: fairy lights.

[jkwall]

If Kenley hadn't made what she made in every other episode then I would have liked what she did. Unfortunately this challenge just sort of happened to work around her aesthetic instead of the other way around.

Edit: Oh, I was talking about last weeks episode. Forgot there is a new one I haven't watched. It sounds like this week will probably be the same.

[jkwall]

Oh wow, Michael really should have gone home there.

[smartbunny]

I'm glad it was Jerrell because I just plain don't like him.

[StrangeLight]

michael's was definitely worse than jerrell's, but jerrell should've gone home ages ago. if he was competing for the final three over any of the others (even michael or kenley) i would've elvis'd my tv.

[Umlaut]

Michael's look was definitely bad, but it worked more than Jerrell's did. As Pharrell said, Michael's would fit in nicely at a Comic-Con. If Jerrell had attempted to make a somewhat coherent and not batshit look, Michael should have gone home. But Jerrell really shit the bed entirely, making an outfit that wouldn't even be okay wandering around a Bassnectar show at Bonnaroo at 3am. For once in his thick-headed life, Isaac Mizrahi made a salient point that even without that horrible full length pencil skirt, it was way too wacky even as a costume. It was just abysmal. And I loved watching him eat crow, after openly saying multiple times throughout the episode that he thought this would be his second win. I loved watching that moment on the Runway when he realized it'd probably be him going home. And then him pretending like he was "all good" afterward... I won't lie, I was high on schadenfreude.

[smartbunny]

YESSSSSSSSSS!

[MrDys]

It's really pretty sweet how little of a shit the editors/producers gave when it came to the huge, glaring continuity error that is Austin's mustache. Ugh.

[chapina]

This season made me dislike Mondo...

[Umlaut]

I feel you chaps, but I still think he's going to win. His collection is turning out great. He's definitely been a big ol' baby at times. And his output doesn't even compare to his work from his season (OMG remember his HIV+ print pants????)

I did like when Michael pointed out "When he gets like this is when he does his BEST WORK" and I, sitting on my couch, responded, "Truth!" and then I got embarrassed.

[smartbunny]

It never occurred to me that the talking head segments are all filmed at the end.

[Monty]

Not all of them are. Austin's mustache has been coming and going this season.

[jkwall]

Mondo's sketch was the funniest thing I've ever seen. And it looked almost exactly like his end project (which I liked but agree isn't a great product for the challenge given).

I'm fairly happy with the three going to the finale. I probably would have preferred Kenley going to Michael but they're at a fairly interchangeable talent level. I just thought Kenley did better with this particular challenge. It wasn't perfect or gorgeous but girls could go into a store and buy Kenley's dress. There's a pretty thin market for Michael's.

[smartbunny]

Michael's aesthetic doesn't thrill me but I buy all my clothes from the Target sale rack so wtFuck do I know.

[crlygrl]

Michael makes clothes for 50-something borderline-anorexic divorcees. I'm just not into it. He doesn't belong there, and I don't find the clothes interesting at all.

[StrangeLight]

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[crlygrl]

Mondoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
