I tivo'd the show just to watch evening gown. As they were showing the "top 20" at the beginning, I was actually worried -- what if she HADN'T made it??? The dress looked gorgeous and I'd say Kayne will have quite a bit of new business as a result. :-)

I watched just for the dress too!! She looked incredible. I was sort of surprised that hers was the 'poofiest', all the others were very streamlined.

I hated that dress! :-) I thought is was out of place and better for Miss America 1955! It stood out among some very sophistocated looks and not in a good way.

Miss Japan's dress was fabulous.

I am afraid I have to agree with Ms Bat. In canada, we don't get project runway yet, so I had no idea the dress came from this show until Carson announced it. Before he said anything, I said - "that is the ugliest dress I have ever seen. Whyever would she wear that???" I thought the colour was drab and the design was just not something one would expect at miss universe??? :-(:-(

PS and I also thought Miss japan should have won :-(:-(

Who did win? What did her dress look like, I should say. I only watched the evening dress part.

Bat, Miss Puerto Rico won. Miss Japan was first runner-up. I wanted Miss Japan to win also. I do admit to watching the show to see if Miss USA wore the dress and she did.

Newly crowned Miss Universe faints
Apparently, the heat and excitement and that heavy beaded dress were too much for her. Pageant officials insist that she "had plenty to eat" that day. LOL

I remember that dress! The other tacky one. I only remember 5 dresses. The other two: white with high slit and a yellow that the woman from Tabago wore. Either of those dresses/women make it to the final round?

nope I don't think so Ms bat. the yellow one was trinidad tobago and she was not top 5 although I thought she should have been. I thought all the dresses that should have made it, did not and the dresses I didn't particularly like - they made it. I really didn't like the USA one, the Green coloured one , the Puerto Rico one - all made it - I did like japan's though.

I think one of the white slit ones was canada and I forget who had the other one but I don't think she made it either.

I didn't watch the pageant but did see the Project Runway where this dress was made. Not my favorite...

Did it seem to anyone else like the dress didn't have the irridescent quality it did on Project Runway? Either different material or just really different lighting?

I really hated that green dress...thought the print was just awful (but the woman in it was gorgeous...reminded me a lot of Hunter Tylo). 3 of them were wearing white dresses. A couple of the dresses reminded me of the Laura/Michael dress...one of the white ones and Miss Canada's pink dress. But, actually, Miss Canada's dress reminded me most of my old Superstar Barbie. I thought that during the part where all the other contestants were on stage in their dresses (before the finalists came out), there were at least a couple that were similar to Tara's dress in coloring and glitz. And I agree that Miss Japan's dress was gorgeous. And, can you believe Santino was a judge?

The Puerto Rico dress was all made of metal chains, but even my husband was laughing at how it fit on her boobs. It was a terrible fit. I'm guessing she didn't win because of her score in that dress.

I liked Puerto Rico's dress from the waist up but thought it was too nekkid from the waist down.

The material of USAs dress was the same from the show but did not show particularly well in that lighting. She also really lightened her hair, which I thought changed how the color would look on her. I liked her better with the darker hair, her hair color was too brassy.

The blue/green/yellow dress looked too casual. The hot pink one looked cheap. Puerto Rico looked like she was charging by the hour. I realize I am in the minority, but I thought Japan's dress was TOTALLY the wrong color for her. Too dark. Though the dress itself was nice if a bit staid for a pageant. (Won't be hanging in Kayne's store, I'm sure.)

Ps. I knew that Trinadad and Tobago (yellow dress) would not make it into the top 5 because her double sided tape was totally ruining the bustline of her dress. It was very obvious where the tape was holding the dress to her chest.

Who do you think is going to get thrown off next week??? What rule was broken? Oh the suspense!

I am soooo bummed! Angela shoulda' been gone last week, and she DEFINITELY shoulda' been booted this week!

I was amazed at the kudos Bradley received -- he seemed to pull that out of thin air at the last minute, didn't he?

This was a fun challenge -- but I'm a huge dog lover. :-)

Oh yes -- and wondered who everyone thinks will break the rules? I got worried when it showed Robert and Kayne discussing the rules; Kayne seemed to be explaining that the rules were explicit about what could/could not be done. I hope those two are talking about someone else, because I'd hate to see either of them leave!

Please, please, please, let it be Angela! Please!

I know it's probably not, but still.

I have no idea who will be kicked out or why. Can't wait to find out!

I could NOT believe they kept Angela this week! Her outfit was horrid, not something that I could see anyone wearing, much less her 'vision' of a teacher! OTOH, the other outfit was simple, but at least wearable and pretty.

I think they kept Angela purely for the drama. :-(

They booted the right contestant. That green dress was dull.

Odd that Angela designed the same skirt she, herself wore to the judging. She seems to wear that skirt every day. Her story was so ridiculous she deserved to be booted for that alone!

Why wasn't Vincent in the bottom with his plain back sheath and capri leggings? I found it odd that was not even discussed. Terrible!

Good group this year. I am going to guess that Robert and Kayne make the final 3.

Laura is going to get called on the carpet for not having a broader range. So far, she designs for an upper east side socialite, which she is. That is going to wear as thin as Angela's bubble skirts. I like her though, I just would not wear those clothes.

I thought it was strange that the story they had to make up was so important to the judging.

"Yes, I thought that my model was a young socialite who liked to walk around town in ill-fitting dresses and unfinished seams. She's making a political statement about child and dog labor in the garment industry."

On an entertainment news show the other day I saw a short feature on Keith and how he plagerized his portfolio. I just assumed he was the one getting kicked off.
