Anya walked away the winner this week. She did a pretty good job. I feel a little like she is a one hit wonder, even though I like her stuff and I think she has some great style (except the moo-moo she wore during judging) I just feel like she makes the same thing over and over again so I would love to see what she would do with a whole collection. Oh and loosing her money and having to make the first outfit with 11 dollars… Impressive, it does make me curious what she planned to make or would have made if she had all of her money. (incase you are wondering the second look is a jumper,and those are pant legs not a skirt)
The pity win this week or second win went to Bert. Now if you didn’t see the show you are probably looking at this train wreck that is Bert’s design and wondering how the heck did that win? Don’t worry, even if you saw the show you would likely be thinking the same thing. I am starting to feel like Bert is buying his way to the top with the judges. Heidi said about the first look “I do love the fabric” Nina said “I would buy that top and I would wear it” Nina, I would like you to eat your words. Your taste is far to classy to ever be caught dead in the mess of that top. Not to mention the lack of even a hint of modern style. Those shorts?? That, what is is a tie wrap skirt??? Come on, this whole thing is hideous and there is no way (no way) a hip modern woman would be caught dead in that. Also the popular question from the judges is “where is this woman going” Why didn’t they ask that? I would love to know where this woman is going. (besides a roller derby) The second look? Yes that would be the one that you can buy at piperlime. Why? All I can figure is that Bert put some metal aglets (or we assume he did it) on the end of the rope that is the belt, the judges got distracted by something shiny and didn’t notice that the dress is poorly sewn and ugly.Ok I am done.
Anthony Ryan is the one that went home this week. This actually makes me sad. I like Anthony Ryan he is sweet and kind and I think he is a really good designer. I wasn’t crazy about the vest he made this week or the skirt that was too tight and too short, but I like that shirt a lot, I like the print and the stripe down the back, and no Heidi and Nina I don’t think they look like boring girls. I don’t know why they kept saying that his maxi dress looked like a tent, but Anya’s jumper was not a tent and in fact the winner. I don’t think he should have been the one to go this week.
Viktor was robbed this week. His looks are amazing, I would wear everything, especially that jacket and I LOVED the tee he made under it. His looks are so clean and refined and different from what everyone else did (enough with the jumpers people) The judges loved his outfits. The only negative thing they had to say is that the tee and jacket should have not been together. They loved both pieces but not together they thought the sex was missing. I think they are wrong. AN outfit doesn’t always have to show all the goods to be sexy, the cut of the jacket and fit of the pants and the snake skin pattern on the tee is all the “sex” this outfit needs (in my opinion) He reminds me of Mondo, which means he will likely be robbed in the end as well and make all the fans upset.
Laura was in trouble this week besides the fact that Tim told her that Nina doesn’t like her and somewhat has it out for her, the prints didn’t really go together. They look weird and I really don’t love the skirt. I do love the top though, I like the chevron print that she did herself and I like the back a lot, it’s interesting and cool. The second look I like a lot. It’s a jumper which I am a little tired of, but it doesn’t look like a jumper which I like. I like the top with the burnout chevron print and the shear layer to the pants. The judges? Well they hate everything. They kept saying it wouldn’t photograph well for online shopping… um shouldn’t it look good on a person? Who cares about a photo, it looks fine in the picture above. And again how will Anya’s jumper photograph better than Laura’s?
Then there is Joshua. The first look is the worst thing I may have ever seen, that shirt is so ugly and those pants make that poor girl look so weird, I agree a wide leg may have helped save the look a little, but that shirt is still horrible. Now the judges also hated the dress, I actually like the dress, I like the print, I like the design, the fit is great and it looks good on the model. I still think that he should have been the one to go home since he made what I feel is the ugliest thing this week and he does seem to copy other people’s designs rather than making his own.
SO what were your thoughts this week? Did you think the judges were crazy or spot on?

I agree with you, the judges are losing it! Victor can make clothes so well. That jacket is awesome, and fitted perfectly. I think Anya gets lucky with hers, especially having sewn for only 4 months…how is that even possible! Haha. Bert is crazy. I severely dislike almost everything he does, except for the 1st week. Oh and about the Piperlime girl Olivia. I laughed when I saw her…she was on

I noticed Bert's dress already sold out @ piperlime (they were selling it for $98), but Anya's jumper selling for $198 is not sold out…

I completely agree! I was sure Viktor was going to win! And I was really hoping Joshua was going home – his first look was horrendous! And they never really explained why Anthony Ryan was going home over Joshua. I didn't get any of it!!

#1. I love Viktor's clothes—he's awesome and I thought he should have won.<br />#2. i CAN'T BELIEVE THAT ANTHONY RYAN GOT SENT HOME—he is my total favorite—I like his designs and he is nice…I love him…then theres Joshua who makes wonky, wierd, ill fitting clothes and is super nasty…I think they kept him on just for pure drama.<br />liZ<br />(simplesimonandco)<br />ps—I

The judges seriously couldn't make me more crazy. I had to stop watching the show. Think how awesome it would be if Tim and maybe one other cool person were the judges? I have had waaaaayy too much of these ones. Anya's looks suck, and Bert's 2nd "dress" makes me want to barf. Viktor is totally being robbed, like Mondo was. I have never liked much of what Joshua did,
Bright Angel
Oh my goodness!! Joshua totally should have been the one to go!! Those pants were absolutely horrendous and I do not think anyone in the right mind would wear them, especially with that top! What the heck were the judges thinking?? And I loved Viktor's looks. Crazy!

I don't watch the show but from your pics it seems that you were dead on with your comments. It seems the trend is if one's boobs are hanging all out the outfit is a hit-but classic gets shot down every time. I would wear Viktor's clothes in a heartbeat.

I agree with you on everything except for Berts dress, I thought it was simple and beautiful, but then I do like 70s leaning fashion. His first look was totally roller derby! I agree that Anya is a one hit wonder, but her clothes do have a sophisticated edge that is attractive. And Joshua…. I just don't get it. In the past the judges kill contestants who don't really do the
Helene
Yep, I think I agree with pretty much everything you've said, especially with HOW COME JOSSH DIDN'T GET SENT PACKING THIS WEEK??????? Those pants, they were scary! And as much as I adore Anya, and can't quite believe what she managed to do with $11.50, I do think Viktor was robbed this week. He really should have won. I don't know what has the judges make their decisions. My

I don't understand the obsession with jumpers… I mean how are women supposed to go the bathroom with those things on?!? They remind me of the footy Pajamas my kids wore when they were little. No Thank You!<br /><br />And poor Anthony Ryan! I loved him. I can't stand Joshua, but he will stay on (I bet) till the last three. This is my first season of project runway and I am already

The fact that Anthony Ryan got sent home instead of Bert or Joshua is an absolute atrocity! Totally agree with you about him vs. Anya…I actually thought his dress was better than both of Anya's looks…although I do love Anya…I think she is a one hit wonder to an extent, but I mean you could say the same thing about a wedding dress designer…they only do one thing, but they do it well…
