I hope Seth Aaron wins too. I liked Emilio earlier on, but he is wya too full of himself!!

I did not care for Mila's three pieces -- they all looked the same and too retro. Even though Jay's things will a little 'out there' I thought he was much better than Mila.

Go Seth Aaron!!!!

Sea, but that's IMHO a spoiler and I hate reality spoilers!! I don't want to see anyone's collection until after the Finale. Then I'll go see Jay's. Cause I read the other collections are over there, and I don't trust myself not to peek (that is, assuming it's even a choice and you don't just see everyone's). Nope, I'm not risking it TYVM! I can wait until after the show. BTW count me in for rooting for Seth Aaron too. Nice guy, good taste, nothing to dislike. I can't make those 3 comments about anyone else left in the comp.

I too would have loved to see Anthony in the Finale. It seems that each year there is at least one or two designers the judges decide there is just no way they will let in the finales. I don't get it. And usually those designers are the one's who I liked the most. I found it ironic that Anthony won all the major challenges (design a dress for Marie Claire cover, design for a celeb), but they don't think his work is the best? Okey doke.

PS I decided how I could have best summed up my earlier post describing Jay VS Mila. He was fashion forward, she was fashion backward. Another I don't get it moment on PR, since all they talk about is being fashion forward!

Lurk, Jay is out, so if you went to look at his collection it isn't a spoiler any more. Scout wanted to see the rest of his collection and there it is..

Plus I didn't say she had to go look before the second half of the final runs..

Yeah but Sea, like I said, aren't the other collections over there too? That's how it appeared when the links were posted. So I'm scared if I go to see Jay, I'll see ALL of them...hence the spoiler aspect. I truly don't trust myself and my willpower (or lack thereof) if that close lol

But I am looking forward to seeing it after the Finale :-)

I really liked Jonathan's collection. I thought his was more interesting than Jay or Emilo's. Seth's was great!

I love seeing the pics, it always seems they go by so fast on the show I miss all the details, these pics are outstanding

The model show made it a point to say Jay's model was the only one that hadnt walked in bryant park but she did get to walk there!! YAH!

Thank you, Tish, for posting those links again.

It's funny, the only 3 outfits of Jay's that I didn't care for were the 3 he showed the judges this last week.

All of these people were so talented this season that I never really had a favorite. With almost all the designers, I liked and disliked equal amounts. I would not want to be a judge with this final group.

I like Seth Aaron the best, but I think Emilio is the most talented.

I just found this delightful article from 2002 in New York Magazine about Mr Sosa, "one of the hottest costume designers in New York theater." NY Mag Here's part:

[...] Arriving here from the Dominican Republic at age 3, growing up as one more Fox Street kid who took his first Communion from Father Louis Gigante, brother of Vincent the Chin, Emilio did get out of the Bronx, sort of. Riding an indefatigable font of immigrant zeal, an endearingly offhand self-presentation, and an acute sense of where street culture meets the high tone, Sosa has become one of the hottest and most eclectic costume designers in town. His work can be seen in such far-flung venues as MTV, Lincoln Center, Clearasil and State Farm commercials, Spike Lee movies (Bamboozled most recently), and the Broadway hit Topdog/Underdog. As Jeffrey Wright, the Tony-nominated star of Topdog, says, "Emilio, he's a natural. These drawers he picks fit like a glove."

It has been that way since Sosa snuck out of the neighborhood to the High School of Art and Design and then Pratt, winding up as personal dresser for Judith Jameson and apprentice costume-maker for the Alvin Ailey group, a gig that would take him to Taiwan, Malaysia, and Japan, places La Guardia planes do not fly to.

Still, Emilio comes back to Fox Street. His parents live in the same apartment house where his father worked as the super and handyman for more than two decades. Since his mom and dad have nineteen brothers and sisters between them and everyone's close, just walking down Fox Street can take hours, what with 50 different cousins hanging out their windows screaming hello. Besides, the neighborhood functions as a muse for Emilio, who used to walk up the hill on Prospect Avenue where the landscape of bombed-out, abandoned buildings stretched for miles. "The exteriors were gone on the buildings," Emilio recalls. You could see how people painted their apartments. "It taught me a lot about how to mix colors." [etc]

Interview with PR finalists here: Huffington Post

Nothing spoilery. Just get to learn some of the inner workings of the show, relationships, etc.

There's nothing like a big, close family. Emilio is very talented and I am glad that it is still possible in the US for someone to arrive as an immigrant at age 3 and rise to the top of his profession so quickly!

For the first time since I have watched this show, I do not have a real favorite. It will be interesting the finale and seeing the collections without being influenced by my like or dislike for a certain designer.

Heidi in Emilio's winning dress last night. I wish she hadn't had him shorten it; it looked better long.

I don't like the shoes either. And the brown isn't as warm and sensual. Is it the lighting or is it a different shade altogether?

I think it's a different shade. It looks like "Heidi wears a dress based on an idea by Emilio Sosa"

The original is definitely the more beautiful of the two.

Anyone know off the top of their head if last week's show is going to be aired again before tonight's finale?

For only being a half hour long, that was quite the reunion show...Jay was beyond nasty and Ping just gives me a headache!
