Carol Hannah had the most pieces that I thought were cool, pretty, or interesting, but I agree that they didn't go together at all.
yes, I didn't see the collection aspect of it, but I liked her clothes the best by far. I thought Althea's collection was a bit sloppy and boring. I mean, her first look was a real snooze, and you're supposed to wow us with the first piece that comes down the runway (

I didn't like Irina, mostly because I found her irritating. She's certainly talented, but she needs to dial it back.
Yeah, but once you go black, you never dial it back.
the work on the back of the jackets was, like, whoa.
Was it? I didn't notice. Possibly because if the all black, possibly I wasn't paying close attention, though I tried to watch the runway, at least.
Her models also walked oddly.
Seemed like many of the models walked oddly, though it may have been that after a couple that were genuinely strange I was paying too much attention to the walking for any stride to look normal. Didn't look like they had any time to get used to the shoes.
I think that the shoes were a real issue. They were all dressed very last minute, so they didn't have a chance to really work the shoes. Also, sometimes the shoes aren't the right size, so they have to work it out. There was more than one model who I thought had shoes too big.

It was a source of much conversation in my living room last night, and I suspect it was a moment where the HD TV justified its expense.
I third the SURVIVOR! love. When Russell
ran away and found the idol in a place Dave had already looked, I could not believe it. AWESOME.
Maybe I will try catching a rerun, take another look. I think there may be some more showings...
I haven't done that yet, but reading the fuggirls wrap up just reminded me that the most exciting bit of the finale was Tim yelling at them all that they needed to be lining up and this was just crazy. He sure didn't sound like that was usual Project Runway rushing.
Missed the PR finale and I'm not even a teensy bit sad about it. I can't wait for the show to go back to NYC and back to having Nina and the Duchess full time and hopefully back to being the awesome thing that it used to be. The LA smog 'n sunshine most definitely did not agree with it.
And in better late than never territory, I finally finished the damn blog post for this week's SYTYCD. I tried to blame it on Shirtless Legacy and Kat's scary white out make up, but really it's late because sometimes I'm just lazy like that. And I got offered tickets to Monday's taping but I won't be in town so I had to turn 'em down. Too sad. I hope my name pops up again this season because I want to see some Jakob/Russell/Legacy in the shirtless flesh. Ellenore and Kathryn can come, too, because they are awesome. The Fug Princess and her MonChiChi face must stay far, far away.
Just watched the last two
Survivors.
LOVE.
