Project Runway Everything Old is New Again

I always hate it when they pair up designers or put them on teams for the challenges. You can't really see what they would have created on their own, but instead designers are sentenced to conform with the group, case in point-Ricky-why didn't you just tell Queen Victorya to shut up! I thought almost every group's clothes with the exception of the winning team, just gawd awful! Ricky's group of silky outfits were misfits, who wears clothes like that? For all of Queen Victorya's micro managing, her outfit looked like some sort of slip gone bad, I just didn't get it. Kit and Christian's teams outfits were once again something Star Trekkie's could wear in space and do you think Kit and Christians hair are starting to look alike, in fact they do make a cute couple, except we all know which team Christian plays for. Christian could also have had a supporting role as one of Santa's elf, he just needs little booties with bells. Speaking of couples, I so totally think Sweet Pea and Big Chris make a fabulous couple, I envision them living quite happily in some trailer in Florida. I like the way Sweet Pea chooses the odd man out-e-knee-meanie-mine-nee-mo-she really is Sweet, don't let those tats fool you.

Jillian, Rami, and Kevin's outfits are clothes I could see myself wearing, I love, love, love that denim dress-that really was a deserving win for all three.

During the elimination when it came down to Ricky or Chris, I was surprised that Ricky did not break down and cry. I was sorry to see Chris go, I kinda wanted to see more of his work, however that long, long, long dress was just too much Dynasty and not enough class. I give this episode a thimbles down-I don't like teams! I think it's a toss up between Christian and Queen Victorya, only because I can't stand her restrained control freak thing and Christian because he's yet to prove to me that he has a sense of style-Single D

I agree, I don't like the teams either. This time however, they did kind of do their own thing, especially Victorya. She was one big beeatch! Personally, Ricky should have just said, you want to lead, you got it. At least Elisa is learning, she quit spitting on her clothes and she listened to Ricky when he was helping her and she actually made something we earthlings could wear.

Christian is fun to watch, a little annoying at times, but fun. He seems to really like girl clothes, that little pirouette he did while wearing his outfit tells me he wishes he could be the runway model.

I really didn't see what was wrong with Steve's outfit. How can you redo dancing clothes? I couldn't wear it, you have to be a size 1/2 to make it look good and the model wore it well. I was not sorry to see Chris go. I liked Ricky's dress from last week and think he can do well if he can just stop crying. I must say I was proud of him for keeping it together when he found out he wasn't going home.

I may look like a copy cat but I'm giving this one a thumbs down also just because most of the clothes can not be worn by the general public. Victorya should go next. Way too controlling and does not accept criticism at all!

Project Runway-The Making of The Man Suit

I don't know who Tiki Barber is, but he sure is cute and built! This episode's challenge proved to be a hard one, designing and sewing man clothes. I was curious as to what was Rami wearing when he took off his shorts to create a pattern from them? That was a great idea, if you don't mind cutting your clothes up. Who was it that said, pants are just two sleeves sewn together? Never thought of it that way. When the boy models came in, I think just about everyone was ga ga over them except the one straight guy in the bunch, Kevin. Pretty boys, I have never seen so many pretty men, they were prettier than the girl models and can you say flat abs-whew! I think Carmen and Ricky were engaged in their own opera, singing barbs to each other and losing their tempers under the stress of the Titanic Panic! In the end it proved to be a tough challenge, I thought Victorya's outfit was the best (they never listen to me!), Rami's outfit looked nicely made, but seemed lacking in something-maybe an ascot? Carmen's outfit looked like it was sewn on the model and alas, maybe she should have turned her necklace right side up for the horseshoe to bring her luck! Thimbles up for the boy toy models. It looks like spit marker Elisa might be staying awhile, so my next to become unsewn is Christian, I haven't liked a single piece he's done, bye bye and oh yeah, fire your hairdresser! -Single D This was one big surprise. I never thought I would see Project Runway do men's clothes. Yes, I did know who Tiki Barber was, me and Kevin it seems were the only ones (Tiki does have a twin brother and he plays football too). It was fun to see the designers rushing around trying to make something from nothing. I wasn't sure what to expect from Elisa since they didn't show too much of her until the runway show. I was thinking something chameleon like but it turned out pretty much normal, go figure. Sweet P had me cracking up with that enormous neckline, at least her tie looked great! When the male models came in all you could see was eyeballs popping, girls and guys. Elisa had to turn around while her model disrobed. Apparently, on her planet, it's wrong for a female to see another man semi nude. Good thing she didn't have to measure his inside leg! The runway show was a disaster for some like Sweet P with that neckline and Carmen with, well, that. No we couldn't get through an episode without Ricky crying after they told him his suit was bad and dull. The winner was Jack but I liked Kit's outfit much better. For next week's you're out person, I'm going out on a limb and saying Ricky. He was so flustered this week and he has been playing it pretty safe. I don't think he will recover from the panic. Thimbles up for Tiki! Double D
