ASUADPi, I've noticed that the judges are NEVER consistent. They will hammer someone over something they've let someone else slip by on. Or one designer will have one bad week and get auf'd, but another will get saved because s/he has done well so far so this might just be a slip-up.

I'm not sure I want to keep watching without the one who got eliminated! :mad: Well, OK, I am intrigued by the previews next week... looks like something major goes down.

Still pissed about Anthony getting the boot and Mila's ugly dress. I actually would have worn Anthony's (minus the ugly back) but I wouldn't have washed my floor with the fugly rag that Mila made. BLEAH.

I'm hoping for a final three that includes Emilio (loved his dress this week), Maya and Jay. Seth Aaron's stuff is impeccably made but is a little too out there for my tastes. But if he makes the top three, I won't be upset.

Kappamd 03-26-2010 08:49 PM

I really think Seth Aaron will win it all. The judges adore him.

Sister Havana 03-26-2010 11:50 PM

I thought Mila should have gone yesterday, not Anthony. And I was also bummed to see that Cerri went home on Models of the Runway. I liked her!

As far as next week, based on what I've read on TWOP...it looks like (spoiler alert! Highlight to read) Maya leaves for some unknown reason and Anthony comes back.

christiangirl 03-27-2010 01:54 AM

Nooooo! I haven't seen this week's yet and I'm so sad to hear about Anthony. I wonder if someone got this week's ep on TV, usually my mom does it automatically. I used to NEVER watch this show but this season has been highly entertaining.

Oooooh LOVIN' the spoiler! :D

Me too!!!!!!

KSUViolet06 03-27-2010 07:42 PM

I have managed to avoid this thread until I caught up on my DVR.

I liked Emilio's DRESS, but hated the print (which I thought was the focus of the challenge).

I am so sad to see Anthony go. I liked his dress WAY better than Johnathan's (which I couldn't tell was even printed material because it was so pale).


Benzgirl 03-27-2010 09:09 PM

I felt that Mila should have been out. However, I don't know if I just didn't like her dress or I don't like her.

ASUADPi 03-28-2010 09:59 PM

Lovin' the spoiler too.

But they've done it before, remember back in like S5 (all I remember is that Christian won), Chris was brought back. I think they do that because the challenge has already started and that model would be kind of screwed out of possibly winning (like the designer) and they (the producers) don't want to screw the model when a designer chooses to leave.

It was different in s3 when Keith got booted mid-show because it was a team challenge so all the models wouldn't be 'walking' the runway in the first place and two got booted the following week.

txpacer 03-28-2010 11:29 PM

I'm excited to see what happens next week, but I really think that Mila should have been out.

As much as I liked Maya's dress, her print made me think of a racing swimsuit. Still think it looked cool, though.

christiangirl 03-29-2010 03:56 AM

Anthony cracks me up! I can't stop watching his "pale as hayle" comments on my DVR. I needed to laugh and he supplied. :cool:

groovypq 03-29-2010 11:00 AM

I hope that spoiler is true!

srmom 03-29-2010 05:50 PM

What was the spoiler?? I just saw that there was some "drama" coming, but not what it was!!

Go back to Sister Havana's post on the previous page and highlight it with your cursor. It's in "invisible ink" so the people who don't like spoilers won't see it.

gee_ess 03-29-2010 09:04 PM

Very impressed with the spoiler technical trick!!

DreamfulSpirit 04-08-2010 09:26 PM

So sad that Maya left, but yay for Anthony coming back and winning!!!

I really can't stand Mila, she doesn't branch out of her shell.

Any predictions for final 3 tonight????

I don't even think it's a shell, I think she just has a cold personality. Look at the body language and contestant interactions...no one likes Mila. I'm really disappointed she is in the running for Bryant Park. I really hope Jay beats her. I think he's the more deserving designer anyway. Also, interesting little story line the writers threw in there. We've known since their team challenge that there's some antagonism between the two of them.
GO AWAY MILA!

Of the designers left, I think Seth Aaron is my favorite. His tailoring+innovation are unmatched. His stuff is crazy, but still works and is tasteful (perhaps with the possible exception of the circus challenge). I think my favorite designs all season were the Seth Aaron+Emilio team for the Harlem outfits. AWESOME.

Benzgirl 04-09-2010 09:14 PM

I dread the thought of Mila showing at Fashion Week. Hmmm, lets see. It would color block Black and White from bathing suits to bridal gowns.

My prediction is that Seth Aaron will win. Any other predictions?

christiangirl 04-09-2010 09:28 PM

^^^My money's on Seth Aaron, too. Though I'd be happy if Emilio got it, ANYBODY BUT MILA!! I love Jay but I just don't think he has the skills to match his talent.

It broke my heart to see my chocolate drop get booted off again. But even I have to admit, this last creation was not the business.

indygphib 04-09-2010 11:10 PM

Sorry I'm late to this party, but I've been barfing ever since I found out Mila is going to Bryant Park.:mad:

I'm pulling for Emilio. His dress last week was absolutely stunning, and the bodice work on Thursday's episode was crazy awesome.

Benzgirl 04-10-2010 12:07 PM

Technically, Mila is not going to Bryant Park yet. She and Jay are still designing a collection and they will present their best piece to decide. Kind of like Rami and Chris a couple of years ago. I know there will be a twist; just don't know what it is yet.

bostongreek 04-10-2010 01:53 PM

mila better not beat out jay for that last spot. she's this season's non-psycho wendy pepper. everyone there hates her.

KSUViolet06 04-10-2010 11:18 PM

Finally able to comment now that I'm caught up.

I think my money is on Seth Aaron as well.

So sad to see Anthony go home after being brought back.

ASUADPi 04-10-2010 11:18 PM

I'm going with Seth Aaron as the winner. His designs are amazing. Emilio would be my close second.

I then would want Jay over Mila as the third person.

Its going to be between Seth Aaron and Emilio...its really hard to pick for me! However I agree...I want Jay over Mila. Mila is so into herself, that I'm honestly just sick of her. I haven't really seen her go any different in her designs like everyone else.

indygphib 04-16-2010 10:11 AM

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRF.:mad: I can't believe that black and white dreck made it to Bryant Park.

Love when Tim was at her place commenting on the black and white decorating and the black and white dog. That girl doesn't have any color in her life!

Kappamd 04-16-2010 11:14 AM

I audibly booed that decision last night. UGHhhhhhhhhhhh, BORING!

KSUViolet06 04-16-2010 02:58 PM

Ew.

I'm so sad but I had a feeling it was going to end up this way. Blah.

angels&angles 04-16-2010 04:18 PM

I LOVE and WANT those shin-guard-leg-warmer-boots that Jay had on his models. Amazing.

Benzgirl 04-16-2010 05:21 PM

I thought Milas clothes were matronly. They looked too big and bulky.

KKGis4Me 04-17-2010 03:07 AM

I really hope that Emilio wins, because I appreciate the fact that not only are his designs unique (in my opinion), but I also really like the fact that Emilio designs what HE thinks is going to be a show stopper, regardless of what Tim says (though I super love Tim!). I think it takes a lot of courage to stick by your designs, and have the gut instinct to know when something is good or not. I really wanted Anthony to win, but I know that while he will be something great, he just isn't there yet :(

But go Emilio! Im sad Mila beat Jay though because I think he has more to say (through his clothes) and I think Mila has pretty much peaked. Can't wait for the finale!

DreamfulSpirit 04-17-2010 02:09 PM

I'm cheering on Emilio and Seth Aaron...I really can't stand Mila, so at this point I'm just like anyone but her!

Ghostwriter 04-22-2010 05:16 PM

Okay, don't know how many guys will admit to watching this show but I do. Guess I am outted. My 2 cents worth. For some reason Mila looked very good in the last episode. She had that gaunt look previously. Dare I say she looked hot for a "matronly" 40 year old.

I thought her 3 designs were far superior to Jay's. The biggest reason I believe they voted her through to Bryant Park is that people will be able to see themselves wearing the clothes she presents.

I think Seth Aaron will win as he has been the most consistent but Mila has a shot, at least from what I saw with the 3 pieces. Guess we find out tonight. I will be watching PR in between the UFC fights. Feel the testosterone!:D

Benzgirl 04-22-2010 05:33 PM

Tough TV night: Project Runway, RHONYC, NFL Draft and the Cavs are in the playoffs. I'm wondering how many programs my DVR can handle.

thetygerlily 04-22-2010 05:48 PM

My guesses for tonight: Seth Aaron, Mila, Emilio.

I would've put Emilio in first or second, fighting with Seth Aaron- until I saw his collection last week. It was so different from what he did on the show, and his poor model didn't even like any of the pieces. I liked several of his pieces (including the fabric challenge) during the season, but not this stuff.

Seth Aaron- very consistent throughout the season, clear point of view, excellent tailoring & craftsmanship. Not everyone will wear his stuff, but hey, I probably wouldn't wear most of what I see on Project Runway anyway :D

Mila & Jay- Her stuff did appear somewhat matronly but Jay's was pushing things too far. I think he has a great future- he just needs a bit more time to experiment more and figure himself out. Mila... Good craftsmanship, decently clear point of view, added some color to please the judges, fairly wearable (even if for a certain age group).

Finale tonight!

If you haven't read Tim Gunn's blog on lifetimetv.com, do! He haaaates Emilio's collection.

thetygerlily 04-22-2010 06:10 PM

What? Procrastinate more, you say?

*scurries off to find Tim's blog*

ETA: Wow. I should've found this sooner. Tim is not holding back! Awesome. I wish we had seen more of these encounters on the show.

In case it has not been evident, I have a difficult time engaging with Emilio, and vice versa; the editing of the show has been kind to both of us. I find Emilio to be stubborn, an indifferent listener and extremely arrogant about the quality of his work. When I walked into his studio, I was stricken by the palette of the items on the dress rack before me: pea green, candy apple red, a red/black/gold iridescent print and another iteration of the digital initials print for which he won the HP challenge (I'm still incredulous; Maya should have won). However, in that split second I refused to make any assumptions about what I was seeing, because perhaps those items had an altogether different purpose, such as costumes. I was being generous.

He also apparently didn't get along with Jay:
As the season's shows have been edited, it's not evident that Jay and I had our share of differences, which resulted in many awkward and stressful moments between us. And it all climaxed during Heidi's visit to the workroom in the Red Carpet Challenge, but you don't see that moment in the show. I think the producers thought that they were being kind to me. Accordingly, the rapprochement that Jay and I have in his studio is omitted from the cut, because it has no context. Jay acknowledged his bitchiness and apologized. I responded by thanking him and giving him a huge hug. We both had tears. And it meant that we could move forward and carry on and leave that earlier baggage behind. Whew. I felt physically lighter and I developed a sincere fondness for him. Bury the hatchet.

You can tell who he wants to win- I think he agrees with my rankings :) (although he doesn't realize that Portland is in OR and Vancouver is in WA):
Seth Aaron is, admittedly, a quirky character, but he's a sweetheart of a guy too... on to Seth Aaron's collection. I was dumbfounded. At the time of my visit, Seth Aaron had completed more looks than any other designer in the history of the show... The looks were true to Seth Aaron's aesthetic and impeccably constructed... I had to insist that he put on the metaphorical brakes and stop to assess what he had done. As great as the work was, there was nothing that would surprise the judges. I was confident that the lack of anything surprising would prevent him from winning, and winning is what I want for all of the designers (well, almost all …).

I want to begin by saying that I am a big fan of Mila's work. I'm especially pleased about her presence on this season of the show, because she's sportswear-minded, respects the wearability-meets-fashion conundrum, and is comfortable and confident designing separates. American fashion needs her! However, the work that she presented concerned me... She needed to clear this hurdle before she could even contemplate winning.

Kappamd 04-22-2010 06:39 PM

I think they should have included more of the drama. That's what's missing from the watered-down Lifetime version of the show.

I'm predicting Seth Aaron to win it all tonight.

ISUKappa 04-23-2010 10:22 AM

Hoo, the verbal claws came out during the reunion show. I still love Anthony. He was the little spark of crazy this season needed. I do think maybe Lifetime edits down the drama while Bravo edited it up.

So happy with the winner, though! I was afraid when the judges were fawning all over my least favorite collection that it wouldn't turn out as it did.
