If Christopher had just ripped out the entire white dress, he'd have had a winner. Or a gorgeous dress at the very least. With it, it was awful.

So I have to give Irina props for the "why is one dress puking out the other" because that is exactly what was going on.

She's almost the kind of caustic I can appreciate, but enough of her bitching is just self-promoting and uninspired that means she's just unpleasant rather than interesting.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

What the fuck is Heidi wearing to the runway show!!! If any designer had put that shit on the runway, Micheal and Nina would have ripped them a new asshole.

ITA! She almost rocks it, because she's Heidi, but really, just, no.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Finally, Logan goes home. The crazy part is that I think this design was the best thing he's done in weeks. Now, that doesn't mean that it was good, but at the very least it had some intent to it and showed a point of view. It didn't look like something I could buy at Urban Outfitters.

Gordana really dodged a bullet tonight because that outfit was dowdy in the extreme. I think I might have liked the skirt, but I could barely see it under that fugly long jacket. Christopher, well, I can't even call it luck. He clearly has something heavy on one of the producers becuase he didn't even hit B3 for that fabric monstrosity. I think even without the white bedsheets, it still would've been a bad dress. The judges were being very generous in their assessment of that look.

Finally, loved Uncle Nick and Kerri Washington on the panel. She's so pretty. It's criminal. And Uncle Nick is just made of awesome.

Gordana also has styling issues. She took a dowdy outfit and make it look worse with the hair, makeup and omigod the shoes. It looked like one of those bad Hollywood looks they put together for the girl who's going to get made over into a hottie by the end of Act 1.

I still don't understand what Christopher is doing here. I felt as though he had one of the easier looks to translate into another look. (I thought Carol Hannah was going to have the biggest issues.) Instead, he sent down a gown that looks as if someone TP-ed it on the way to the runway show and he STAYS? WTF?

It makes perfect sense that Althea won for her companion look. I didn't get why she won the first time so, of course, I couldn't expect to understand why she won this time.

hahahaha! I know, right? I was so over Logan, so I'm glad he went home but Christopher is definitely past his expiration date.

Man, I hope Jen gets her head back in the game in time for the finale. I want it to come down to her and Kevin. Not that the brothers don't have talent, but the increasing assholery from both sides of that family are getting up my nose.

Art Crawl!!!

Yeah, I think we know our Top 3 now.

And whether Christopher or Gordana goes next probably depends on pure luck and who is having a good/bad day.

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

And whether Christopher or Gordana goes next probably depends on pure luck and who is having a good/bad day.

Yeah, but if Christopher goes, we'll have to deal with more of Katie and the DOUBLE-STICK TAPE DRAMA over on "Models of the Runway."

Ahem. Yeah. I'm still watching that. I was even rooting a little bit for Logan, just to keep Koji. Because unlike the other models, she's not vapid. (Also, beautiful.)

Because books.

It's been a weird season. I think part of the reason the judging has been so bizarre is because it's a different group (aside from Heidi) nearly every week.

Yeah, I could see Christopher's hideous mistakes looking like "good designer on a bad day" if you've only seen one of them.
