Oh, okay - she's the retro Texas designer, right?

She has a great design sense ... and seems to be incapable of delivering anything on time. Ever.

she seemed okay with the time for the challenge. I wonder if she's one of those people who has a harder time getting stuff done with too much time, and no real consequences for lateness.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

On the whole, I dug the new "Runway." It was promising. The "all-Star"challenge? Not so much. Waaaay too much bitchiness, and what the hell was up with Chris falling asleep all the time? That's just not right.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

My guess: sleep apnea.

He needs to be evaluated ASAP.

what exactly did you expect? Did anyone else notice that Santino did not come out to congratulate Daniel? I rewound and checked.

what the hell was up with Chris falling asleep all the time? That's just not right.

They riffed on that during his season. His position was "I'm finished with my garments, and I'm tired. Why shouldn't I sleep" Now falling asleep during the model casting . . . I still love him like my luggage though. And he was a total woobie when he talked about how he was so honored to be among the great designers. And Heidi was so there for him!

I didn't watch the All-Star Challenge. I also was completely unaware of the PR models show but am taping it sometime this weekend. I'm guessing it may provide useful intel. . . okay, maybe not useful.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Chris WAY underestimates his talent. I've loved him for a long time and I LOVED his final collection. I cannot believe the judges didn’t' let him in the final three. That gorgeous blue dress was fucking awesome.

check out his collection all over again from Fashion Week:

That gorgeous blue dress was fucking awesome.

yes, he should have used that for his one look for the judges, but he wanted to go edgy and used the hair dress.

I read Tim's blog afterward, and he said that the judging went on for hours and what it ultimately came down to was the question "who is your client" and Rami was eloquent and detailed, where as Chris said "oh, I don't know, some young woman" (or something like that).

I would let Chris design for me ANY day. Not only would I have a great garment at the end, we would have a ball!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My guess: sleep apnea.

He needs to be evaluated ASAP.

Yeah, totally. My father used to fall asleep any time he sat down, practically, and snore like that. With the CPAP now, he doesn't!
