Because books.

The colors looked wet, muddy leaves! And a lot of the cropped tops with baggy pants pairs were total '80s! Do not understand.

I think Heidi would ROCK Mondo's polka dot dress.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Okay, I think I just broke up with PR. I do not get it.

Luckily, I think I was spoiled for this last week, so I have gone through my stages of grief prior to watching this episode. I would have been losing my shit right now otherwise.

Holy god Nina, it's not "orientalist" when it's done by an Asian designer. I mean, what the fuck??

right?

Because books.

Halfway through, when I realized they actually LIKED Gretchen's collection, I started to drink heavily.

Metaphorically, anyway.

It was fun to watch Heidi and Michael go at it, though.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

did you all see Tim Gunn's reaction. I think he was saying WTF along with us.

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

Bah.

It's funny, when they describe Gretchen's clothes - easy sexiness and Boho and earthy - that's totally my kind of clothes. But when I look at them, I don't like them at all. Don't like the palette and generally don't like the cuts.

I don't like the outcome, but I did enjoy the judges wrangling.

It's striking to me that Heidi likes that polka dot dress so much when it's so not a typical Heidi dress.

Orientalism, Nina? Seriously?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

!

I think I'm glad I'm not watching this season.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

This was a bad ending. I do not understand what drugs Kors and Garcia were taking.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

What I don't get is that what they have previously complained about in designers in seasons past they praised the winner for this time around.

I don't get it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

from a comment on Twop:

That was as much about damage control as it was about fashion. Running Through Thunder indeed. I hadn’t planned to watch but my friend came by and insisted. She works as a crisis management specialist. Once we saw the mini-reunion before Fashion Week and the content thereof, she turned to me and said, “Oh shit. This means Gretchen wins. Damn.”
