Either Terri or Leanne should have won. I honestly wasn't into Kenley's dress. The bottom part looked like a big butt balloon and it was going to pop any minute.

**Ruby_Slippers** · 08-03-2008, 04:25 PM

I had a difficult time picking between the top three dresses this week. I think I would have gone with Leanne's though. But I did like Kenley's dress.

What's with the guest judges this season though. They hardly have anything to do with fashion. Sandra Berhart? Isn't she a comedienne?

I'm not a fan of Kenley's dress either but if you go to Project RunGay they actually talk about how Kenley's design is similar to the new Balengacia line so the judges probably picked up on that.

I loved Leanne's though. It was the most wearable.

Stella is a complete one-noter. She needs to get versatile (not likely--I'm sure I saw a glimpse of her working with the "leatha!" during the promo), or go home SOON.

Blake is a psycho. Yikes. And Daniel sort of irritated me this week, though I think Athletic Designer Guy (Keith, maybe?) was over-reacting a bit over the sewing machines. And his purple/blue cocktail dress was completely out there.

The winning design this week was pretty--I liked the way the pants flared out--but something about the cut of the top bothered me. I wonder if the designers were on crack this week, though. What about an Olympic challenge makes you want to run for polka-dot hats and forties inspired frocks? Kinda weird...

I don't want to like Suede, but I just can't help it. His designs are very attractive, even if the third person thing makes me want to smack something. Kenley is great too, though I'm afraid that she may play out a little down the road. I don't have a favorite yet, but I think that Kenley is pretty interesting--even though I didn't care for her interpretation this week.

**Ruby_Slippers** · 08-07-2008, 05:53 PM

I really liked the guy's design, I think it was the most Olympic appropriate.

But I'm really happy Kato won, it was my second favorite, and it looked really great on the runway.

Most of the designers didn't seem to understand the challenge...way too many cocktail dresses. I agreed that Jennifer should have been booted, she was boring and I don't understand how her clothes used surrealism. And Jermel? His outfit was all types of wrong.

I'm not sure about the guest judges recently, none of them seem to be that related to fashion.

Rona Jo · 08-07-2008, 06:43 PM

Korto did a good job this week.

I'm not surprised that Jennifer got voted off last night. I mean, the outfit she made it had nothing to do with the USA. Plus it looked like she got it from her own closet.

smunyang · 08-09-2008, 08:51 AM

Ohno(spell?) as a judge? really??!!

anyways, I was glad that Jennifer got booted. She kept saying how her clothes are inspired by Salvador Dali but it never was. Dali actually made people think and most of all, his painting was interesting.

I thought tonight episode was meh. I was sad when they voted Kelli off.

She was my favorite.

Rona Jo · 08-14-2008, 03:09 PM

What the hell?!?!

I can't believe they got rid of Kelli. She's way more talented then Blayne. I mean, the outfit he designed was totally wrong for the challenge, it looked like the kind of clothes you would wear on summer vacation.

My favorite outfit was Jerell and Stella. They were the only ones who were really on the same page when it came to making their outfit. Although Keith and Kenley were good too. Congrats to them.

Olympic episode: Terri was robbed!!!

Brooke Shields - I liked Keith's & Jerrell's outfits equally so Keith winning was okay by me. Too bad the judges didn't know how bad a team player Daniel was. He should've been auf'ed. Or Blayne.

OTH_Leyton_4eva · 08-16-2008, 12:42 PM

Keith and Kenley's outfit was amazing <3 keith's desing was soo inventive & the execution was superb! so glad he won && i was okay with kelli leaving, because i thought that was the worst outfit, but i would have been happier if daniel would have been eliminated. he hasn't impressed me once.

Rona Jo · 08-16-2008, 02:31 PM

Yeah, I have to be honest with you. If Blayne couldn't be voted off Daniel is my second choice. He only had one outfit that was good and that was the cup dress in the first episode. The stuff he's been designing lately have been...ug! He keeps saying that he's clothes are all this and that, yet hes shown us nothing.

modern_audrey · 08-16-2008, 11:47 PM

Agreed about Daniel. And apparently Kenley agrees too...I am a big fan of hers, but I just thought it was really stupid for her to bust up in front of the panel. I get that she is effervescent and all, but...just a little too unprofessional for me.
I would have liked to see Suede's concept come down the runway. Still not sure why Brooke picked Blayne, but whatever. Those board shorts were pretty hilarious...they wouldn't be work-appropriate in a BiLo, let alone a boardroom. At least if they were sort of inspired...but the whole outfit looked like it just came off of an Old Navy mannequin!
And, okay, I'll admit it. In her element, Stella's good. But how long is the competition going to allow her to stay in her element? I can't believe nothing has been said about it so far. This is four consecutive challenges in which she's put together a leather ensemble--yes, I'm counting the trash bags. Admittedly, she couldn't help a design that wasn't her own...but still. It's not even amusing at this point.

Rona Jo · 08-21-2008, 02:20 PM

Yes! They finally got rid of Daniel. I mean, the dress he made last night was so wrong for a drag queen to wear. Hello! You're outfit is suppose to be wild. It's suppose to be loud and bright and shiny. Also hated Keith's outfit. The top looked like it was cut up by Edward Scissorhands and taped back together. I liked both Korto and Joe's outfits.

modern_audrey · 08-22-2008, 05:43 PM

I thought that the red dress for the fuller-sized queen was pretty terrible. They were talking about how Daniel's dress could be found in any costume shop...I personally thought that could have went twice for all of that shiny scarlett. And I didn't find the shape super attractive either.

And I like Suede, but I agreed with Hedda. The gloves were pretty darn Godzilla-esque.

I LOVED the pink catsuit! The belt was fantastic. Sort of a 'winkwinknudgenudge' effect, but without being over the top or cheezy. It was perfect.

But HOW did Blayne not get called down?! His wing was clearly broken and lilting to the side!
