I did actually like Gretchen's look this week. Don't want to hear her opinions any more, though.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I liked Valerie's dress very much. And I did like Michael C.'s -- I'm not sure where all the criticism from the others came from. He doesn't come across as unlikeable.
Yeah, that was weird how down everyone was on his dress. The first one he made was bad, but the one on the runway was fine. Valerie's was also fine, I just would have liked more drama. And the little zipper in the middle of her back, I didn't get that.
I'm still hoping that someone with immunity will design something really outlandish because they know they can't go home. Andy let me down.

You know, what got up the hat designer's nose regarding Valerie's dress? I was wondering why he hated it so much.

Because books.
I thought he liked it but didn't love it, but didn't get how it related to the mask. It sort of didn't, but the flirtiness of the dress and the little bolero really played off the mischief of a mask like that, I thought.

I thought it was interesting that the hat designer put the hats on the models and thus got a close up look at the dresses before they went down the runway. I wonder if that's when he formed his opinion of Valerie's dress. I have to admit, it seemed more like a cute little outfit with a mask added to it than a look inspired by the mask to me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
t, that's a good point. He had a hate on for that dress that he couldn't be talked out of.

Amen. Not only did she make booty shorts, she made booty shorts that were ill fitting. And her ill fitting booty shorts looked like a diaper. Kristen at least had an idea and a concept. She executed what she wanted. I might not have liked the look, but at least I didn't recoil in horror like I did with the other outfit.

PR: That was the first top/bottom three that I really wouldn't have guessed.
I wasn't upset with the bottom two, and hadn't been impressed with who went home, but WTFF was Christopher doing there?
I didn't love the winner's dress, but agree it looked great with the hat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously. Yikes.
