But didn't Jonathon make his own fabric? I think that extra creativity in the textile scored him some huge points.

Yes Jonathon made his fabric. While I liked Seth Aaron's, I don't think I'm artistic enough to get his concept. I did like Jonathon's the best.

I think Amy went home because at least she designed something that fit. Remove the hair chest and the dress wasn't bad. Ben, OTOH, had badly designed and executed pieces that really did NOT fit his model at all.

Costacat, I loved the comment from the judges saying Ben made a jock strap outside of pants. I laughed so hard at that. And it was true. :-)

I wasn't so sure it looked like a jock strap as much as it looked like something that really DID belong inside the pants, though! REALLY ugly design.

I just had to add my two cents worth on a related topic....Heidi's outfits. I thought this past weeks outfit (when she was first addressing the designers) was really cute and looked very good on her bod. It got me to thinking about a couple of weeks ago. She wore a red dress that had some sort of scoop in the front right at her belly. All I could think of was the "eggs nest" disaster that Ping designed some time back. Honestly, it was the ugliest thing I think I've ever seen Heidi wear. They totally ragged Ping for her design and concept and lo and behold here's the host wearing an outfit that was totally reminicent of what Ping had done. And let's not even begin with her hair this week. Considering that this weeks challenge was sponsored by Garniea (sp?) you would think that her hair would have been flawless. But, alas, NO. I know this competition is about the designers and thier designs but it reminds me of Shear Genius in a way...Would you really submit your hair to someone who's hair is just totally whacked out?? Me? No way. So I have to laugh sometimes at these judging panels. While they may have the creds to judge...someone should be judging the judges. Again...just my two cents worth.

Sorry to see Amy gone but she wasn't very good the past few weeks. I was also sad about Holly leaving.

Can anyone explain to me how the designers switched models from this time to next week? I was getting very confused as to who stayed with their current model, and who switched, so that Holly ended up getting eliminated.

Emilio picked first and he of course changed models again. I can't remember who he ended up with, but I think it was Lorena Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | If it means anything to you, Lorena was also one of Emilio's models when he showed in Fashion Week, Monique was one of Anthony's, and Brandise was one of the color blocking woman's | Most of the other designers went back to safe ground--Brandise to the color blocker, Anthony to Monique, Jonathan to....oh I can't remember. I think Jay was the last to pick, and he went with Brittney rather than Holly.

Jay lucked out in having Amy having her second bad week. Otherwise, I think he would have left, which would have been a shame because all of his earler outfits were great. Seth continues to look really strong. I liked Mila's jacket. Was a bit disgusted when Heidi told She had absolutely nothing to base that on. Yes, Jay had been great before, but most of Mila's designs have been as well. I don't care for them bringing their own personal likes and dislikes of people into what is supposed to be a judging of clothing.

I don't care what THEY look like; just their clothing. Unless they are selling clothing with their own face on it, of course..

I don't mean her looks Sea, I basically meant her attitude, and when I am watching, having to see that, colors everything she creates with that same feeling.

OMG I hated this last elimination. Not the designer -- that one was obvious, but the models. My two favorites were left for last and Holly went home? That's just wrong in so many ways. All the girls left are decent enough people and no matter who goes, it's a bit sad (wish Elizaveta were still there though). I am enjoying "Models of the Runway" more than the main show this season.

I saw the previews of the next show. Any ideas as to what is stunning or shocking Tim and the whole group? Sounds like a tragedy of some kind, almost.

I thought Seth deserved the win last night. I also thought Mila should have gone home. That dress was horrible in so many ways. Maybe it's also because she annoys me. Her fabric design was so blah and I love color, which she did use. It just had no imagination. Interesting how they reacted to Emilio's fabric design. I thought it looked far better once incorporated into his dress. The fabric design wasn't horrible to me, but it's sure interesting to see what the judges think. After seeing Tim's reaction, I thought they may really dislike it.

I totally thought Seth deserved the win last night. The only thing I can think of is that Emilio's jacket must have looked much better in person (on the TV it just looked like a blob, just a regular swing jacket and nothing special). I'm also not a fan of ego fabrics with names in them. So I didn't get the graffiti aspect of his "design." Interesting how Jonathan and Cerri got all up in arms about his fabric. The color did look good on his model, but when he "makes" his own fabric he is more successful. I actually like Mila's dress (maybe because I wore that style in the 70's?). She should've seen that Brandise couldn't walk in it during one of the fittings, though, and added a slit at least to the knee. Anthony did deserve to go though. He HAS made the same style of dress over and over again. The comment by one of the judges that he uses the same form and just "decorates it" was pretty spot on. He was getting boring to watch, too.

I think Mila got the inspiration for her fabric from an old sling outdoor lounger I once owned. Why was that dress so stiff? It almost looked like it was made from canvas. I thought Emilio's fabric looked beautiful on the bolt, but not so much on the finished product. I'll miss Anthony.

Emilio's print reminded me of Stephen Sprouse and, since I liked Sprouse, I liked the pattern. I was happy that Heidi, Michael, and NGFDOMCM loved it. They were adorable when they were talking about it! Seth Aaron's whole aesthetic is unappealing to me. Oh and what was up with the color blocking woman last night? First, she says she has questions about the "taste level" of both Emilio and Anthony....and then she designed THAT? Seriously? I honestly think those three, Mila, Seth Aaron, and Emilio, are going to be the final three, but what do I know? Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | next week Maya has to leave for some reason, which is why she didn't show during fashion week. There are rumors Anthony might be coming back because of that | For the first time this season, the regular PR was more interesting than Models of the Runway. I can't believe that model decided to stay with the show instead of doing the DKNY campaign, though.

I'm surprised that model stayed too. She said the DKNY gig paid a lot of money. Right now she has a one in six shot at $25,000. And she kind of put Seth Aaron on the spot, didn't she? But I guess if he hadn't picked her again and no one else picked her up she would have taken the DKNY jog. So it really was a win/win for her last night at least. But in the long term? Probably not a good decision.
