PR: The Defaults

Meaning, the only reason they were in the top was because all the other looks were total ass.

The Geek Squad

The geeks shall inherit the earth.


How cute are these two?

Attention! The chess club will meet at 3:15 to have their yearbook photos taken! If this conflicts with your gaming club meeting, please see Mr. Tom or Mr. Lorenzo after homeroom to get a slip.

Model: Brittany Oldehoff

We're torn on this look.

We like it, for the most part. It's sporty and it's got some nice details.

And it fits her well, for the most part.

And while we like the seam placements, they're not executed as well as they could be.

But what really bothers us about this look is that it's supposed to be a signature look, put together with the highest budget of any PR challenge ever. Does this look like 500 bucks worth of fabric and 2 days of work to you? It's nice enough, but it just doesn't go there.

And yet, strangely, they brought their A game to their B garment.

We really love this look. It's a great (and instantly recognizable) interpretation of the original look. We really like the idea of that sporty jacket paired with a little black dress.

Although to be honest, the dress could have used a bit more loving attention.

But in looking over the looks for this episode, we've been getting frustrated because it looks like most of the teams just banged out a B look without putting too much thought and work into it. Not the geek squad, though. They really thought about it and turned out a look that's in some ways better than their A look. That jacket could have used a lining, though.

Congratulations!

Almost-drama!


The challenge? Well, it was another "make a pretty dress" challenge unfortunately. But NEW TWIST ADDED. This time, they have to make a pretty dress AND an ugly dress! Or something. It got confusing.

Yes! "Create a high end signature look" but ALSO, create a low end, piece of shit look! Never before in the history of Project Runway blahblahblah!

Honestly, the challenge didn't bother us. It was one of the weirdest twists they've ever sprung on the designers, but hey, anything that causes those little fame whores some stress is entertainment gold as far as we're concerned. We hope they set their work tables on fire next week.

And besides we got all this weirdly sociopathic "Is she gonna backstab me? I'm gonna backstab her" drama from Jonathan, which unfortunately amounted to nothing because why would you throw your team leader under the bus if it looks like the judges like the work?

Still. We've got our eye on you, missy. You were so ready to go straight to fucking over your team mate that we think we might love you a little.

And what made it so delicious is that she was completely unaware. Had he actually gone through with it, she would have been shocked.

But enough almost-drama.

Model: Lorena Angjeli

The outcry was long and loud in T Lounge last night over this win. We have to say, we probably wouldn't have given the win to this look, but we're okay with it, for the most part.

It's unique and boldy graphic and editorial and that goes a long way with those judges. Remember, we were all sick of the "I would totally wear that" judging of last season. Well, this is what you get when you have Nina on the judging panel: things that will look great photographed in a magazine.

Plus, they loved that she didn't do a dress and frankly, so did we. Any time someone executes a garment well on this show and that garment is not a dress deserves at least some props.

And it wasn't just executed well, it was executed flawlessly.

Two things we wish they hadn't done: the racing stripe on the pants, which made the whole thing look like a high end workout suit, and the sparkly black top, because a pop of mod color would have gone a long way here.

As for the bizarre, "make a shitty version of someone else's dress" part of the challenge...

Models: Kristina Sajko/Monique Darton

FAIL.

In fact, this would be the one reason to question their win, as far as we're concerned. The judges clearly didn't like this look, so how is it they won, when the other top team sent out two looks that the judges loved? Mysterious.

It's such a literal, unimaginative reinterpretation, right down to the sad little "feather."

It's a cute silhouette, but we loved hearing the judges bitch about it being a babydoll dress, since for a couple of seasons there, the PR runway was where babydoll dresses go to die.

That belt is sad.

We kind of wonder what was going on in Mila's living room last night when it was revealed that her team mate was ready to shiv her in the cafeteria. We suspect a lot of "Oh, you know I love you/I was tired/it was the editing/I didn't really mean it" texting was flying back and forth. But Jonathan, you better run, because Mila scares us a little.

Girlz Rool!





Ladies to the dance floor, please!


We're liking her. She's low-key without being boring (yet) and she seems creative, even if last week's effort was an insult to breasts everywhere. She certainly made up for it this week.

And we are totally digging the '68 model Streisand eye makeup, by the way.

Model: Alison Gingerich

Not just super-cute, but really creative and thought out. In fact, shouldabin the winner.

The masterful dye and construction job on the skirt is the first thing you notice of course, but we really think that top is what makes the look.

It drapes beautifully and rather than disguise the burlap, it draws attention to it by saying "Hey, look how soft and drapey I made this potato sack look." We also really like the bands on the edges and the waist, which gave it structure.

To have such a beautifully constructed top AND a beautifully dyed skirt is what made this, to our way of thinking, the clear winner. We don't know what the judges were thinking on that front. It seemed obvious to us.

About the only criticism we can make is that the skirt is a bit too much of a tutu.

Still, after last week's boobtrocity, she came back strong and is making us think she's one to watch.

And speaking of one to watch, don't turn your back on Mila, darlings, she's a bit crazy.

Honestly, we don't know WHAT the hell happened there, but she went from the calm, cool, collected pro we assumed she was into a moody little sophomore in the blink of an eye. And for what? Because some model she barely knows didn't pick her for the dodgeball team? Honey, get a grip. Focus on your competitors. Who gives a shit what some model thinks?

Model: Lorena Angjeli

Despite the high school drama of it all, she pulled together a knockout look.

This is exactly the kind of thing a model would wear to an "industry party;" short, tight, and at least a little bit of shiny.

The only thing is...
What the hell's going on there? Strange, because the rest of the dress is impeccably made.

And the detailing is gorgeous.

The only real issue is the slightly strange fit on this thing; loose and tight in weird places.

Still, she's also one to watch. Especially if there are sharp objects in the room. She can get a little testy.
