Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anthony's got to have the same taste issues as Kayne -- the whole pageant gown thing does not fly with Nina.
I really did not see anything so horrible about the dress. And I appreciated Anthony asking what they would have done, because he couldn't see anything wrong with the dress. And they they were assholes about it "we can't tell you what to do, you have to have your own design aesthetic"

I thought it was a straight ripoff of the Balenciaga that they saw at the museum.

I'll give you ripoff, but Nina flat out said it was ugly.

I agree with all of that.

I really liked Anthony's dress. I would have thought boring would have been worse for thid particular challenge, and there was plenty of boring to choose from.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I agree. I liked Anthony`s dress. It may have been too closely derivative but I thought it was lovely. I have oogy feelings about Ping`s departure because I really feel that a lot of her problems were communication/cultural. But in the end I agree that her dress was the worst.
Is anyone watching Models of the Runway? I`m trying not to get sucked in, but I`d be curious what they said about Ping`s model piping up during judgung.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, the other thing I was going to say is that I think in fashion, like in music, it`s hard not to be too derivative. Which is why I liked Mila`s outfit so much. I felt like we`ve finally got another designer with a real point of view.

Because books.
I thought Anthony's dress was kind of stunning when the model walked out. I mean, yellow and black is a little bumblebee for me, but I didn't really get costume from it at all.
And I agree about Mila's outfit -- the jacket was wild, and it's so new-looking.
