Althea is up and no one likes her pieced together monstrosity. Diane admits Althea is a good seamstress but calls it “Marie Antoinette meeting Frederik of Hollywood”. It looks like a slutty Easter superhero to me.
“Her power is that she lays eggs that hatch into crabs!”
Saint Pancake immediately starts babbling about how she has cankles and has to wear giant umbrella pants, but still wants to feel sexy. Before she can segue from her own outfit to the model’s, Diane launches into a long story about being 20 in Rome and engaged to a handsome Prince. She’s a wild card, but I’m guessing we’re in for a long build up of how much DVF loves this look. Isaac and Georgina just love the story. It makes Mizrahi daydream about his own run-in with Prince and Georgina is just telling herself that if you just keep kissing a fat ugly toad one day you will be rewarded.
With your own fashion line
Saint Pancake looks terrified through this trip down memory lane, but it turns out she has recreated “pajama palazzo”- when everyone in Rome would get high on mescaline and pass out on the Spanish steps in their long johns or something. The rest of the judges give high praise as well with a few small remarks about her shoulders being too narrow and waist too wide.
They also had a few things to say about the model’s dress
The designers leave so the judges can talk about them behind their backs. They all love Aryan and inexplicably love Uli. DVF calls it “forbidden fruit”, but I’d say it’s “feather blindness”. They really run down Dead Mauth for blaming his failures on chiffon, calling it very easy to work with. The chiffonies of last season’s Project Runway would agree and I’m wondering how they are going to get out of ousting Ivy this episode. All the shredded chiffon and pastel ragbags in the world don’t excuse her wrinkly mustard sun.
Well, my emotions are mixed when I hear St P is the big winner. I didn’t really think Uli deserved a win and I think Carolyn probably blackballed Aryan’s volumizer dress, andI was slightly hoping the designer who was the biggest fan of DVF would win… but I’m still hoping Carolyn wears it to the ground-breaking of a Reno Planet Hollywood and no one takes her picture.
Jumping for joy like rich people do
Emilio is safe and the bottom two are Ivy and Althea. Somehow they keep Ivy and let Althea go. I have to think past performance factored into this because by this runway alone, there was no question who should have left. Ivy hugs Althea goodbye and now I notice how tall that bitch is!
The bigger they are, the lower Ivy needs to make her center of gravity to knock them down
If you like it, spread it!:

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!
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’.
