And, in fairness to Suede, he did "rock" Korto's outfit. He really sold it with the walk and the poses at the end of the runway.

He was totally a good sport about it. He really redeemed himself there some for me.

Was that Korto's first win?

No, she's won at least one other time. (I know that she won the Olympics challenge.)

OH this would have been great. Jerrell would have seriously rocked it.

No, I don't think so. I think Jerrell did kind of sabotage Suede because that was not a rock and roll walk on the runway. Especially for somebody that had been a model, he gave no strut.

Well he would have looked hot anyway.

I've hated Suede but there's no way he should have gone when the other option was Kenley! Producer bullshit indeed.

I actually don't really have problems with Kenley, and think she's a better designer than Suede, but even I agree with this.

Indubitably.

He looked pretty hot as it was and it didn't help much.

I didn't think Kenley was that great on the runway - she pretty much maintained bitchface throughout. Though I suppose that might have been what she thought appropriate to the character.

I thought Suede got the look he was going for, kind of Lenny Kravitz rocker cool. That's what he described to Jerrell in the workroom and I think that's what he delivered. I could totally see Lenny rockin' that entire look in a video. For me, LL's critique was spot on in that it certainly wasn't a look that would work on stage in a big stadium during a performance. At the same time, those are not the directions that Tim gave. He just told them to make a look that represented their assigned music style, and it seemed like Suede did that. At least, way more than Kenley ever did. And his pants were impeccably done and fit Jerrell very well . . . unlike some others.

Survivor in two minutes, whoo!
