Dead Mauth and Papa Elsa pull a little RHoM and start talking shit about other designers in their own secret language – Spanish.

This is about my precious Uli. Hate missiles engaged.

Ivy presciently points out that the viewers will enjoy reading whatever meanness they are cackling over. True, and further proof Ivy has her third eye fixed on the fourth wall this season.

St P is stoked for this challenge because she is a big fan of Diane Von F, although she twists the strength and success of DVF to call her someone who doesn’t take any shit and doesn’t care what people say about her.

I know you haven’t gotten to “Projection” in therapy, but you have nothing in common with DVF

Uli is concerned that her fabric is too dreary and vows to have an “Uli explosion” including tons of feathers and bangles and recycle bin cast-offs. This doesn’t necessarily remind me of the one way monkey dresses she made during her season, but now Dead Mauth is joined by Joshua in sniggering about her design. Either Uli is going home or will win big with all this negative editing.

Hm, is there a third option please?

Ivy foreshadows that she was sent home during a red carpet challenge for not finishing her look. From the falshback it even seems she is designing the same silhouette this time around. I look forward to the nail biting, although I just can’t get excited about deadlines without Tim Gunn to come in and make everyone poop their pants.

Speaking of missing Tim, Joanna joins the designers to critique. Althea is warned that her fabric is ugly, St P is told that even Diane Von Furstenberg is going to hate her and Papa Elsa is apparently high-lighting the nipple. Dead Mauth is seen adding his two cents of criticism to every look. I’m hoping that is a set-up for his being taken down a peg or two, if this is editing tricks, they are working on me! Everyone is back to work and the designers talk about how much they smell from their time roasting in the sun on the High Line.

The heat is starting to make Papa Elsa’s face reject itself

The models are already in for their fittings and Ivy is, as predicted, way behind the curve and worried about her time management. Back at their hotel which is called something like Sleep, or Dream or Quietly Wank, all the designers admit they don’t yet have dresses put together. We get a dubious moment of bragging from Althea and Dead Mauth that they’ve dressed every Kardashian and Audra McDonald for the red carpet, respectively.

Basic, but still bragging rights

MrsMiaWallace is an east coast girl with a  penchant for travel, libations and great cuisine. She is not known to turn down a mimosa or a martini and finds the transition between the two a good way to mark the passing of time since she can never remember to wear a watch. Her secret love for reality tv and addiction to Bravo have drawn her like a moth to the glittering snark of TVGasm,  where she finds there are others like her... hopefully also nursing Bloody Marys.

    1. Why, oh why, does Ivy continue to wear shear chiffon tops? EVERY week?? It drives me bananas!
    2. That green dress Carolyn wore for the runway did absolutely nothing for her boobs. It looked awful.
    3. Poor Ivy. That dress had such potential in the sketch, but a combination of time and fabric quality got in her way. I’m glad she didn’t get sent home. Althea had been middle of the back to bottom 3 too many times while Ivy had been in the top more times than not.
    4.I was irritated with the Spanish bashing of Uli, but they did have a point about her one-way-monkey dresses from her previous season. But she has turned out decidedly NON-monkey dresses so far this season. I didn’t think she was top 3 though. Joshua or Papa should’ve been in the low top 5. I CAN’T WAIT FOR A CHRISTMAS UNCONVENTIONAL MATERIALS CHALLENGE!!! So excited!

    Can we, once and for all, agree that “green fabric” is not for high fashion?! What a bunch of ugliness!

    I want Eyesac’s shoes! :D

    I can wait for the unconventional challenge. I wish we got more of them.

    Season 11 starts at the end of January. I wonder why they’re not spacing out the seasons more.

    @sag: It does? So soon? With RealHeidi? And Tim? Woo hoo!

    MrsMia I cant believe I’m going to say this, but I actually liked Uli’s dress, ribbons and feathers and sequins and satin and eighties-prom-appeal and all! Then again, I am a child of the eighties (not BORN in the eighties but “came up” in the eighties) and that’s a good excuse, right?

    Ivy damn skippy should have have been Auf…er, awkwardly patted on the back “goodbye”. That dress was pass-the-eye-bleach ugly.

    Poor Althea. Go Aryan and Joshua and since she’s finally more diverse Uli!

    I didn’t really like anything this episode. Actually, Emilioth was probably closest, and what gorgeous skin his model has. I admit the hem was a messth!!!

    I don’t like green either, only the bright green DVF had on, with matchy shoes yet, and i heard emerald is this seasons color, not sure if that means the new grey . . .

    St. P’s was fug to me, hated the fabric, but it’s just not my taste, and what do I know . . .

    Althea was doomed from the fabric pick on, I don’t know what she was thinking . . .

    Who the hell is dressing HeidiBot? Heidi K? With each episode her clothing becomes more and more bizarre and eyesoreish. Either that or she has a blind stylist.

    Anyone notice the Mystic tan line on Weinsteins BabyMamas foot? Really, she can afford better.

    And I’ll miss Althea. I liked her on her season and liked her on this one but I don’t feel she’s winner material. But, she clearly has a succesful if small design business so, you go girl!

    Ivy and the weird sheer tops with a bra and shorts. *sigh* These are all her own creations which explains why they all look 1) alike, 2) really well made and 3) boring. Josh and Casa better step it up or they’ll just keep winning ‘Most Forgettable’.
