No shit. This isn't season 1. Not only that, if I got this far, I would have a mental sketch of a 13th, 14th, and 15th set of pieces, I also would think about these pieces done with unusual fabrics and materials.

hell, I would have already cut out a pattern.

An extra piece should never be a surprise to the designers at this point!! So stupid that they didn't already have something mentally planned out even if they couldn't come to NY with it already sketched out.

I hope that they start next season with Nina getting out of the shower and finding Tim and the Duchess in bed reassuring us that the whole thing was just a bad dream.

Hee!!! The best part of last night's ep was Heidi and Tim dancing in silhouette.

maybe they didn't do it because they didn't know what parameters they would have. I don't think that they had any rules, just "design a 13th look", right?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yes, true. But, I still think I would have come in with a few different ideas. Something evening/cocktail, something career, sporty. Maybe a few sketches. I know they're busy working on their collection, but you gotta know you're going to be asked to make another one once you get there.

oh,yeah. They probably also have a look that they rejected for their collection that they might be able to fall back on.

This is what I was thinking. Surely they have tons of sketches that they didn't use, at the very least.

I felt bad for them only having a half an hour to shop at Mood when it's the first time they've been to the real Mood. But I guess they managed.

Carol Hannah getting sick and Irina not having anything finished are just not as dramatic as human hair on everything or free custom-made shoe scandals.

Or allegations that the work couldn't have been done in the allotted amount of time.

I was amused by Althea and Irina apparently making similar pieces, mostly because it highlights how pedestrian they both are, that Althea and "copy" Irina when they are in different states.

I hope I am wrong and when I see the collections on the runway they'll be amazing, but I doubt it.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I want to see Irina fall on her face. She bugs me. Plus, the way she rolls her eyes at Tim? Not cool.
