Hobosexual's model also has boobs down to her belly button. Is that a new fad? Because if so, my great aunt Louisa is gonna be totally psyched. Eighty two isn't too late to lose your virginity. Jerell has made a goldish turtleneck thing with a large black formless jacket and tight black skirt. The model never takes off the jacket, which makes me wonder if any of it actually is sewn or if fabric is just glued to her and then tied with the most hideous blue belt off the Bluefly wall. Just in case his work isn't confusing enough, he's added a black version of that little sailor hat thing he always wears. Do you know that shudder you get up your spine sometimes when you are finished peeing after holding it in for a long time? I just felt that as I saw this mess walk down the runway, and not in the good thank God I made it to the bathroom way, but in the what the hell am I doing to my bladder? kind of way. Jerell is very excited with his work and says he is patting himself on both shoulders. Cut to VonMisterToadberg's face.

LOL

CutToe is out next. She has made another jacket, this one with poofy sleeves and the same neckline as all of Hobosexi's t-shirts. Underneath is a summery flowy dress with black and white circular print with yellow accents on the underlining. I thought this one was gonna be killer, but it looks a little slutty housewife from the 70's.

The second the next model is shown behind the screen I start LOLing. Blayne, who was told his Bermuda shorts were too casual in the Lipstick Jungle challenge, has made another pair of Bermuda shorts that aren't too casual. Unfortunately, they're too damn ugly. His jacket is pretty decently done, but with the loud scarf underneath, his model looks like a court jester. Is there even a top or just a jacket? OY. He is way confident because Diane gave him googly eyes when they first met and she obviously appreciates a tan. HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA. I have to hand him that one.

Group2-5

Pleather. Pleather. Pleather. Wow. Pleather. He's made a hideous vest and a hideous dress. The fabric looks like camouflage, the vest is dowdy and gross, and nothing fits AT ALL. That is the simplest dress pattern ever, seen on Old Navy racks across the country, and he couldn't even make it fit his twig. I don't even know what to say. When your work emphasizes your model's lazy eye, you know you've boned it. He screams positively anyway, hoping that a positive attitude will fix everything. That doesn't work. I've never tried it, but I still believe that there is no way in hell to save this dreck.

Leatha has made a black cape over a simple coffee colored pantsuit and managed to give her model both camel toe and a muffin top. This could be a very pretty outfit if it was made well, but alas, the only person Leatha could find to sew was Leatha. Kenley has made a tight fitting slip dress with a lace trim and collar. She says it's totally Shanghai. I say it looks like a scab. But at least Donna Reed didn't wear it first.

Group3-4

Terri, Hobosexi, and Blayne (his name had to be dubbed over. It looked like Heidi called him lame, which is hilarious. They should have kept that shit in) are all excused from the runway, leaving Straight Guy, Kenley (who looks like she's gonna start sobbing again), Pleather, CutToe, Leatha and Squirc.

CutToe says that when VonMisterToadberg described the person to design for, CutToe's first thought was freedom. OK WE GET IT! YOU RAN FROM AFRICA! Someone get her a medal and shove it down her friggin throat please. She also says that she thought of relaxing at the beach, which is what the spy would do when not spying. I don't think that was part of the challenge, but I am interested to see if they love it or hate it, because I honestly don't know how they're gonna swing today.

Diane likes the yellow, Malice likes the print, and Heidi likes the jacket. She's safe. Straight Guy is next and says he went with Asian top for his international part and then just threw a bunch of other crap on his model and crossed his fingers. Malice doesn't like the back, and Heidi agrees, calling it messy. No!

LindaLC:

LOVE the recap as usual!! Squirc rules! I think she'll win this season since no one else is even kinda good. I just don't get CutToe's designs. I thought the seat belt coat looked like something I could have made in 3rd grade, and this week's dress was U-G-L-Y.

I COULD NOT BELIEVE that Hobo & Blayne weren't in the bottom 3 this week. Their stuff was hideous. Of course there was a lot fugly stuff to pick from.

Can't wait until next week. I want Blayne or Hobo to go!!

Anonymous:

I'm going to miss Leatha too but it was time for her to go. I liked Leanne's outfit and I'm sure she'll be in the final three but I just can't see her winning --- she's just lacking personality (which seems to be true for the majority of the designers this year). I'm really hoping that Blayne will be going home soon....

ivegotthesquircs:

Long time listener, first time caller.

It is either a testament to your wit or a sad day for Project Runway that I look forward to reading your recap of the show more than actually watching the show.

Also you have ruined me. I am no longer able to enjoy the show like a normal person. I yell at/insult everyone by their nickname now (ex: Quit your cryin' Horsey, stop calling yourself Leanimal, Squirc it ain't happenin')

My favorite by far is Hobi. I showed my husband (not a ProRun fan at ALL) a picture of Jerrel just so I could tell him the BRILLIANT nickname you came up with.(I actually get him to watch 5 minutes of the show to see what Jerrel is wearing, and just as he is starting to enjoy the program...Suede repeats his name 3 times, blows kisses to the heavens and my husband can longer tolerate the massive amount of douchbaggery on the screen.) Hobosexual, there has never been a more fitting name.

Thanks Flipit for making this terrible season filled with morons and catch phrase diarrhea (it's spreading!) fun again!!

detinha:

Thanks, Flipit! ...so THAT is THE DVF? WTF?! I thought her eyebrows now resemble Marlene Dietrich's, when she was young! Gosh, I wish those designers would remain incognito! their looks are so disapointing! Hear me Michael Kors, Donatella Versace, Valentino....? :D

I can't share your love with CutToe ..don't like her, but again, I don't like any of them, I just watch so I can keep up with your recaps, like "ivegotthesquircs"!


PixieGal262:

LindaLC and detinha you guys are on Mars. CutToe's designs are always wearable, beautifully made and fit whatever brief they've been given.

She also does very chic things...I don't understand why you don't like her designs.

Then again...perhaps we should have a look in your closets, hmmm?

Beside that, it drives me crazy that they constantly whine about how they don't have enough time and then the camera cuts to them sitting around/messing around/standing around. FTW?

J-Mo:

I *sob* think that, um *snif* Diane Von Furburger *gasp* is so incredibly amazing because *wah* she actually DIED a few years ago *wail* and yet her reanimated corpse *whimper* just won't lay down and stay dead *ppppbbbbffflblt!*

Actually she reminds me of Patsy Stone's older sister Jackie (They. Have. The. Same. Fucking. Hair.) from AbFab.

If I had telekinetic powers then every single time that Pleather said his own name or blew kisses to the heavens or breathed there would be another pin, needle or scissors that would violently bury itself somewhere in his flesh. It's asshats like him that make people want to beat fags up... hell, I'M gay and *I* want to beat him up! Okay, I just want to slap him. But really hard.

What is it with the criers this year on the Runway?!?? I mean Ricky The Lingerie Hat Queen was fuckin' bad ENOUGH on LAST season, but now it's like they think someone should be flashing "OSCAR MOMENT" on screen every time they talk about how haaaaard everything is for them, and how much they deseeeeeerve to win this. Let me just say... SOMEBODY has to design for Wal-Mart and K-Mart, because contrary to perception, not everybody in America is super-rich, not everybody can afford couture or labels, and I think it's insulting that Kenley equates that with failure. She has obviously forgotten that Jaclyn Smith has been designing for K-Mart for years and has made a FORTUNE doing it.

Awesome recap, Flipit, you are hearted as always...

love, J-Mo :)

dredge:

Well said J-Mo. Kenley annoys me to no end. She is the Sarah Palin of the Fashion world. An unending grating nasal whine mixed with a staggering passive-aggressiveness. I guess her dress was well made, and maybe would not look out of place in K-Mart or Target..ironically enough.

The weird thing about this group is that most of them seem to be cyphers. Ricky cried last year, so now we have 4 criers. Kenley, what? deserves to win because DVF is her idol? Get a grip. please. CutToe is even annoying me with her "winning means this to me". You all don't convince me. So shut up.

I'm liking Leanne and Terri. Both are original to me.

detinha:

PixieGal,
here in Mars is H-O-T and we don't wear coats/jackets all the time! Maybe that's why we don't lurve the no-toe one! Just kidding, gal! I respect your love for her, she's just not my cup of tea, and I think she's one of those whiner, with her run away from Africa stories. Maybe she'll grow on me, her ass already is growing .. a lot! :D

juddfan:

What do you wanna bet this bitch is taking the elevator back up?--I was thinking the same thing!!!! Descending from the stairway to heaven, is that why she's a reanimated corpse, J-mo!?

I am so outraged at this travesty in judging!!! HOW in F did Pleather not bite it this time . . . .that was a worse combo than Leatha last week, and as far as poor workmanship . . . ahem, can we see straight guys seams again!? I thought Leatha's outfit was swell, sans the cape, perhaps, but still, it was meeting the challenge and I liked the throwback look of the collar, and I've seen more insane crotches at gay pride!!! I don't know why they wouldn't think Leatha's bettah TV than Liscious or Hobo, or Straight guy . . . is it me!??

First Leatha, and now Renny , sniff, sob, sniff . . . . WAHHHHH!!! (more later on that)

Anyway, I did like Squirc's look, don't know why Bettie Page couldn'ta done a shrug or something . . . that what it's called, right!?

I also thought Hobo's look was beyond hideous and Liscious' was redonk!!!!

If you look at Toad's collection, almost all the coats are cut shy and are held closed by a belt . . . call me crazy, but noooo, a coat that can't button is too small, period!!! guess that's what Hobo was trying to emulate, but I'll still blame her for just vomit design and color combinations . . . yeeeech!!!!

Can't imagine who could win this, but Cut-toe, Squirc and Terri seem like the only one's who might do a whole line, perhaps Bettie, but you all hate her, so I'll just wait and see on that . . . Terri is looking 3 trick pony at this point, I hope she really goes all out next time . . .

HEART flip, and thanks for the laughs and righteous indignation!!!!! XOXO

PixieGal262:

LOL detinha. I see your point, Ms. Martian :P. The coat thing is a bit repetitive. I think I just sympathize with her because I personally know a whole bunch of Nigerians/Ethiopians/Eritreans and holy crap do they have some serious sob stories.

She does have a ginormous tush though, I will give you that.

skies:

There was plenty of fug on that runway the other night but was Stella's the fugliest? Joe's was a train wreck, Jerrell's was the Salvation Army lady on acid, and Suede's was one big mess. Any one of those were way worse than Stellas..in my opinion, of course.
Maybe the judges see things we don't..trying to be nice here to make up for their lack of sound reasoning.
Anyway, funny recap. You make watching this year worth the effort.

preppyboy:

i agree kenley is pretty annoying, but i have to give it up to her because yes she is a bitch, but at least she says it to peoples faces, unlike STRAIGHT GUY who is probably bitchier than the gays.

itchy:

So let's do rundown of who's left:

Straight guy: Sucks. Can't design and can't sew. And he's an asswipe.

Pleather: Sucks. One of the most annoying personalities to ever grace a reality tv screen. It'd be all right if he was talented, but he hasn't had a single decent design all season.

Blayne: Sucks. Not even worth speaking about.

Hobi: Meh. He's not as bad as the other guys. But he's not great either.

Anyone get the feeling that they really really don't want a guy to win this season?

Even though there's not much to choose from the gals' side either. Well, at least Leanimal seems to know how to sew.

you you you:

"...I think she's one of those whiner, with her run away from Africa stories. Maybe she'll grow on me, her ass already is growing .. a lot! :D"


"...i agree kenley is pretty annoying, but i have to give it up to her because yes she is a bitch, but at least she says it to peoples faces, unlike STRAIGHT GUY who is probably bitchier than the gays. "

Bigotry as commentary. Very classy!

detinha:

you you you,

I don't care about color, race or sex, or whatever. I say what I feel like!
We comment on EVERYBODY's physical appearance, why can't I say something about CutToe?!

I never claimed to be "classy", I'm sarcastic and I won't apologize for it!

bingo blog boy:

Coupla things- did anyone notice how pissed Heidi was at Kenley during her "review"? Kenley kept interrupting her and then Diane Von F. agrees with Kenley and loves the dress! Seriously, Heidi had some great close shots of a seriously pissed face.

Secondly, am I wrong or was Diane Von F wearing the exact same dress for the judging that she was wearing when she met the designers? Maybe all of her dresses look the same, I don't know.

And thirdly, it's not cool to pull out the "bigotry" card here on this blog. Everyone is equally dumped on and it's all done with seriously bitchy love.

Lime23:

Hmph, I'm with Heidi; I liked Cut-toe's dress this time (although those screencaps aren't doing it any favors, LOL). I actually really liked Squirc's dress, too -- but not so much the jacket. I think we're heading to an all-female finale here (as between Squirc, Cuttoe, Kenley and Terri) -- or, should be, at least, if there is any justice.

preppynoy:

you you you

i am gay, and what i meant by my comment is that straight guy is bitchier than the gay guys ON THIS SHOW. not in general. i mean look at jerrell he is one of the bitchiest people on reality tv

hillpete:

I'm no fashion maven, but does anyone really wear tweed bolero jackets with evening gowns? The dress was gorgeous, why cover it up?
