“It’s Freak Out Time here, Ladies and Gentlemen.”
Sorry I had to watch it about three times before I could fully grasp the magnitude of what I’m seeing.. and pictures eventually I’ll figure out . This is a new format for me.
Anyways last night was bliss watching it twice. I think the only thing that could have made my evening more perfect was a big ol’ girlie drink with some decoration… but lets get on with the Show…
Let us Meet our round up, first impressions only:
Rami – Token foreign dude
Chris – He made a costume out of stuffed Dalmatian puppies. I love him.
Christian - Dear Sweet Jeezus first impression. Young Vincent. Name dropping little twerp. He’ll be around forever.
Blah blah blah designers arrive..New Gotham apartments. They are adorable apartments really. I have to admit. I find often that I would love to do this just for the time in Manhattan being fabulous.
Carmen – Intriguing. But seriously just because you are a model doesn’t mean squat. Just means you probably know how to design stuff that can be Walked. I mean really so Michael Kors doesn’t know about fashion because he wasn’t a model? Stella McCartney? I’m pretty sure 99.9% of fashion designers weren’t models. Oh wait… Kathy Ireland has her fabulous K-Mart line. Oh and I’m sorry Kimora, she was a model. I’m not crazy about her shit either.
Jillian – You just want to make the top three? What? No freaking way. She must leave. We are done with her. I’m sorry but unless you come to tear it up and make Tim Gunn say, “Its Breathtaking.”, unless you come to Win it all (even if you don’t choose to take it all) don’t even bother showing up!
next!
Kit Pistol – The Most pretentious name since Austin Scarlett
Jeffrey Sebelia oh wait I mean… Kevin Christiana – Yawn. Yes we get it.. straight boys do fashion too! I’m a rocker, I got hot tatts.. sigh..
Jack Mackenroth – Seems presentable enough. And I think I will call him just Mackenroth from now on. Its far too much last name to have a first name.
Steven – Likeable fellow. But likeable fellows usually meet their DOOOM on the runway.. we shall see.. we shall see.
On ward!
Elisa – ummm giant marionettes freak me out. No.
Sweet P – WHAT? *sigh* Female Jeffrey.
Letter from Tim’n’Heidi.. awwww.
Simone – Vision that she believes is unique. I think what she makes is pretty but really I’ve seen it. I’ve bought it. Its in the laundry.
Marion – A florist! Alright. I can’t hate someone like that.
Victorya – The pictures they showed of her clothing.. I’m sorry.. Chloe not the label but the previous winner.
Ricky – He’s .. crying? Almost crying.
Bryant Park. Champagne awaits.
Fearless prediction.. Ricky is gone first. I’m sorry. You almost cried in the first episode! No. Episode 3 is for crying.
Of course! Our girl Heidi is in full effect. ‘The Party is Over’
GAME ON!
There are three tents within those tents are ‘donations’ from Mood. Fabrics. Make a piece that expresses who they are as designers. 50 fucking grand of fabric.
Wait. What. . hang on. Really? Fabulous fabrics? Not making this out of crap? Wow. First challenge is totally new. No muslin here. No jersey. Its go time.
Girls take their shoes off and they all run!
Oh Ricky don’t start winning me over.. Running like a Mexican to the border.. hee. Adorably incorrect.
Chris got their last because he just couldn’t run. But he was thrilled what with he got. EVERYONE else had gone batshit and grabbed what they could get their grubby little mitts on.
Elisa just might be secret Genius. Then again she might be the second coming of Santino/Vincent. No definitely Vincent. But mean there is potential there, how interesting to sit there and grind the silk into the ground to stain it with grass. Its not a bad thing really. It could be interesting. It Could be interesting. Could it be?
Oh my god: Dig the girls dishing on Mackenroth! Awesome. How also awesome was his reaction, “I’m in the room people!”
Oh DIG the product placement. Brother sewing machines.. Brother Sewing Clock
…
Elisa is sleeping. SLEEPING. Suck it. I think I hate her. I mean what? Sleeping. I need to hate her. Wait. She’s a multimedia artist.. oh please.
“I think there is some Hand sewn Crap up in here.”
Ensembles!
Elisa – The blue is almost iconic, it comes out and you are just like POW. But its like a split personality disorder the front is intriguing, the back is ASS. Fabric Diarrhea pouring out the model’s back end. She could not walk. There are few sins worse than that in Project Runway. I was also reminded of Santino’s Figure skating outfit.
Chris - Its pretty. Its refined, it moved well. Honestly I expected something far far overboard for this big boy, but he brought up a frock that many a gal would be happy to wear.
Kevin Christiana – A surprise to be sure. It’s a fun little dress. While perhaps there were some time issues, it was one of the more interesting pieces. I would term it flirty Goth. Yeah its rocker, yeah its edgy but there is just this.. general adorableness to it.
Sweet P – I will give you yes, “This is a happy dress.” But happy for who? You took a size 0 model and managed to make her look pregnant. While for some women, IE pregnant women, they might want this look. Generally most size 0 models do not wish to look pregnant. I think Sweet P should back away from high fashion, and move towards high end Maternity. She has an awesome name for it, Sweet P Mommies?, and already seems to have a knack for it.
Simone – Well. I could be mean, but I think the best way to say it is honest. Its disappointing. She could have gone out there guns blazing but it sucked. It was just not well made and just there. If this is Simone’s expression of who she is, there is nothing there.
Jillian – POW color. And a skirt reminiscent of Balenciaga. Perhaps some potential to last a long time.
Christian – Its not a bad piece. Its just I’ve seen it. Its something you can see in London on almost any runway. The jacket is Tailored, but the color is poop. Wouldn’t it have been fun if he’d used some damn COLOR in it. The ruffle on the front though. UGH.
Victorya – Oh my god. This is a fucking BORE. We saw Heidi wear this when pregnant. Is it well made, yes. But COME ON.. and I’m sorry a rosette? Honestly? Why would anyone make a rosette after Angela’s signature? Oh how cute Victorya is wearing the same damn flower as her model. Ugh.
Rami Kashou – Anyone else notice his last name sounds like Cashew? I like this dress a lot, but this is one of the times when he could have benefited from a model with smaller sweater kittens. She is braless, and her boobs look they are going in two different directions. I’m choosing to see this as a flaw in the model, not so much the dress. Because really the dress is beautiful, but honestly I don’t know if that will get him all the way to the finals. We’ve all seen designers not be able to get finals even though they make beautiful dresses.
Ricky – He’s really growing on me and I don’t want to see him go now. It’s a baby doll, yes. We’ve seen baby dolls a thousand times, yes. However it is impeccably sewn. It’s a charming dress.
Mackenroth – Chloe’s and Nick’s secret love child. Nothing wrong with that. Its an adorable little dress that I would like to wear. Beautiful black and white pattern, and a bold sash of color.
Marion – Well well well the fashion florist has some GAME. It was a surprise. Goth Chic. I’m intrigued. I might be willing to think that perhaps he might make it to the finals..
Steven – Dramatic Katherine Hepburn. Rosalind Russell in My Girl Friday. Me Likey.
Carmen- Its impeccable, but it seems fussy. There just seems to be too much crap going on up top, but I don’t hate it. It just seems it needs to listen to the accessory rule, I believe its Chanel who said it, “Always take off the last accessory you put on..” eh its paraphrased I’m sure. Coco had a much better way of saying these things.
Kit Pistol – I don’t dislike this this. I love the pattern but it looks like she went into her closet grabbed two dresses and tore the right sleeve off the red one and sewed it onto the black one to hide a bleach stain. I think there is some REAL potential here.
My picks: Chris, Kit, Rami, Marion , Mackenroth, Kevin
My sucks: Victorya, Simone, Sweet P, Elisa
The Judges
Faves: Christian, Rami, Victorya
Sucks: Simone, Elisa, Ricky
Please oh please fearless prediction be wrong.
I’m not even talking about what the judges said about Victorya. PUH – LEEZE.
Favorite line from the dissertation on the clothes:
‘If the dress is fabulous enough, you are willing to bleed.’
Amen Michael AMEN.
Heidi keeps saying that Christian’s outfit grew on her and I kept thinking, “What like a fungus?”
Okay looking at the slo mo of Rami’s dress and the model, its confirmed.. she has WEIRD boobs.
Simone has no creativity. No Wow. It was boring AND poorly made. Oops.
Elisa: Heidi says it all “her model looks like she was pooing fabric”
Ricky and his perfect baby doll got slammed. Owie.
The Win: Rami!
And now for the loss:
What is the bigger sin? To be safe and pretty, or a fucking nut job.
I’m afraid I know the answer see Vincent for an example of what the fuck.
Yay Ricky! I’m so glad I was wrong. But do me a favor, ditch your hats. Unless you have an ass underneath them we don’t care if you are bald.
Bye bye. Simone.. Sigh Elisa. I predict at least three quarters of the series having to suffer from that woman and her sound effects. >_<
Oh Simone. Simone. I initially thought you had the most pretentious name this season. But no.. that belongs to Kit Pistol. Good luck Simone. Your crappy seam work sealed your fate.
