If it's like in past seasons, you will be able to see pics of the collections online from other news sources. You won't know who the finalists are, because they will show the others' to through you off. At least they can say they showed at fashion week.

Maybe they eliminated Terri because they did not want to see 13 pants-and-jacket outfits walking the runway at Bryant Park.

Kenley's taste in fabric is not even in the same ballpark with mine. What the heck were those sleeves supposed to represent?

I had to laugh at the "pooping fabric" comment on Blayne's!!

Why did they dislike Terri's? I thought it represented it well? I didn't get the judges on that -- I think she seemed stunned because she took off the over the top parts

Terri's didn't look bad, but it did look costume-y. Also, I think her arguing with Keith was a factor they looked at. Sort of a total package.

When I watched the runway, I said to myself "OK, Blayne is gone. Who else is joining him?"

I thought Terri's was much better than Kenley's. Finally, Blayne is gone. <100> Perhaps there is a clientele for him although I find it hard to imagine. <100>

Keith was far too wounded from his eviction to help anyone and couldn't manage to push it aside for a couple of days.

I really had not paid that much attention to Kenley until last night. It is very likely that she will roll right out of there next week if that attitude remains. IMO she should have gone vs Terri given the finished product. There were aspects of Terri's garment that was not so bad. Those puffy sleeves on Kenley's garment truly made it rather odd. I kept thinking about "Alice in Wonderland" for some strange reason...............

When I saw Kenley's, I thought Snow White. I think someone on the show laughingly called it "Minnie Mouse"!

I think some of them confused "Avant Garde" with "Wacky".

I think, from the judges comments, the problem with Terri was not so much she did not get along with her helper, but that she tried and use that as an excuse. The judges indicated that people have incompetent helpers all the time and they still have to get the work out by deadline. Reading blogs and stuff, I think there was a quality issue with Terri's work as well. Kenley may have an attitude, but at least her garment was sewn well. That won't always save her.

Onthe after the show interview, Terri said tha there had been word from sequesterville that Keith was seriously depressed and that is why she did not want him, She also did not respect his sewing skills, so she did not want him sewing for her. He cut the pattern. She said she tried talkingto him for 15 minutes and then had enough and did not want to talk to him anymore. However..... while editing can make you look bad, they can't change your body language or add things that did not happen. Keith did warn her about the fake fur looking costumey in Moods, but she ignored him, yet listened to Christian when he said it. She also did not greet him, others hugged or at least shook hands, she looked over her shoulder and nodded, which was rather unfriendly. Since she did not give Keith any sewing, why does it matter if he took a nap when all that was left was sewing? The pieces do not all fit.

Blayne was backing his outfit asthe greatestg ever and Terri was supporting him, liking the strapping, etc. And this was after the show aired last night, so it was a while since he made that outfit. They thought that if Dianne Von Firstenberg made the outfit, it would have been loved by the judges - delusional much?

It was surprising how the blogs and the video indicate that Joe let Daniel design his outfit - that was either a nice gesture, allowing Daniel to show his taste, or a lack of imagination. But using talent who works for you is a design stape of behavior.

That outfit of Blayne's... good googley-moogley! I think the radiation from the tanning beds must have burned out his eyeballs if he thinks that was attractive. I've seen grade-school children design their own Halloween costumes that looked better than that thing.

I can't believe Kenley is taking such an atitude with the judges. If she already knows so much more than they do, then why doesn't she leave the show and go start her own line? I don't understand why some of these people don't realize that even if they don't win, it is NOT a good idea to leave these people with a bad impression if they still want to work in the fashion industry. Geez.

Sadiesmom, I'm trying to understand the sentence at the end of your post: "But using talent who works for you is a design stape of behavior." I think maybe there's a misspelling or some such? Just wondered.

Really interesting if Joe did let Daniel do the design. Actually, when I saw it, I thought it "related" in a way to the design Daniel was let go for (the one for the drag queen). There was a similarity, only this one had that over-the-top wow factor that the drag queen one lacked. I do think Daniel is great at evening wear. Also, by the way, in a video-taped interview I looked at some time ago with Daniel and his new boyfriend Wesley, Daniel said how depressed he got after Wesley got booted. I wonder if this helped contribute to Daniel's demise?

Beth, I think she just left out an "L". Possibly staple.

This is a review of the finale; talking about the collections that each made. No revelation as to who won, so not a major spoiler, except to say that a couple of designers were crowd favorites. Off to the left is a link where you can see pics of the collection pieces, but none you can see without clicking in. The one pic you can see is of Henley introducing her collection.

Just letting everyone know the spoiler-level of the article.

Just reminding everyone that all 6 remaining contestants showed at Bryant Park, so we wouldn't know the 3 finalists. That said, Kenley of course is one of the six, and a text msg says about her:
"Kenley's last words to her models: "No toothy smiles!" Her inspiration for her collection? Alice in Wonderland."....I thought the person who mentioned Alice in Wonderland above would be interested.

I know. By the time I noticed it, it was too late to get back in and edit.

It seems to show who the final four are. I was very impressed with one of the designers. Lovely clothes.

I had clicked on the Leanne link and it only showed 3 other designers at the bottom. I didn't page down farther on the front link and see the other ones!
