So far I like Althea, Shirin, Christopher and Epperson. Although I didn't see the point in showing us him crying on the telephone.

Nicholas's appliqued 'ice' dress WON? over Christopher's or Epperson's??!

We didn't receive Bravo at our house, so I didn't start watching Project Runway until recently. As a straight man, I will admit that I don't understand all the fashion nuances, so I have a couple of questions that I hope someone can answe.

Who is Tim Gunn and why is he so important? To be honest, he reminds me of a high school art teacher or choir director. Did/does he have a major role in the fashion industry?

The judges keep saying that that ultimate put-down of a fashion is that it is wearable. From what I know about fashion (admittedly not much), there are only a few thousand women in the world who can afford haute coutoure and almost every designer makes his/her money in ready-to-wear and licensing.

Likewise with the models, I cannot say that I find many of them to be attractive. But from what I can gather, runway modeling is different than magazine modeling or catalog modeling or modeling for advertising. Am I wrong?

On a positive note, I would like to say that it is refreshing to see that the persons who are eliminated are treated with some dignity. When Heidi Klum and Mr. Gunn say their good byes to the soon to be departed, both are very gentle and encouraging in their remarks to the person who just has had his/her dream smashed.

I knew someone could explain it to me. Again, my deepest thanx to KSUViolet06

Oh my gosh - poor Epperson. That thing was horrible! I was glad to see him go over Logan (who I have a small crush on!).

Is anyone starting to feel sorry for Christopher? He always gets crucified by the judges. And while I didn't LOVE his dress, I didn't think it was horrible.

I actually couldn't believe they liked that blue dress that Althea made - it was really awful but we hardly saw it in the episode, just when it went down the runway. I thought it was terrible, but they loved it!

KSUViolet06 · #7 10-09-2009, 10:18 PM

I love Althea usually, but I hated her dress too!

Honestly, I don't know what it was, but I didn't really like anyone's outfit.

LeslieAGD · #8 10-09-2009, 10:37 PM

I really thought Logan should have gone home. Everything about his vest and pants was awful.

I didn't think Epperson's dress was so bad. The black torso part was pretty; and if it had had a different top portion/sleeve, I think it would have looked very nice.

This challenge reminded me a lot of the weight loss challenge in S4.

I am glad Gordana won. I like her a lot and think she's been pretty underrated this season. I actually thought Christopher's dress was cute! I would have put Carol Hannah's dress in the top 3 over Irina's - I wasn't so crazy about that, even though the judges were. (I thought for sure they were going to pick her for the win)

I really thought tonight's elimination was going to go the other way.

RedRover · #11 10-16-2009, 12:13 AM

As I said earlier, our household doesn't get Bravo so this is the first season I have I watched Project Runway.

A dumb question from the straight guy: As far as anybody knows, has anyone of the designers eliminated in the middle rounds managed to get a contract in the fashion industry? I would hate for some of the people who have been eliminated, Ramon or Louise, NOT to be working in the fashion industry.

Just wonderin'

I'm so sad they sent home Shirin! I really liked her and I thought Christopher and Logan both did far worse.

I agree!! Shirin hasn't been in the bottom 3 yet (that I believe, so don't quote me on it!) and this was the third time that Christopher had been in the bottom 3.

Agreed. I thought Logan should have gone.
