I wish I had taken a drink every time someone apologized for a snarky remark. I'd sleep well tonight.

On a personal taste level, Emilio's collection was my favorite.

But I think all three were winners with what they created...they were all great!

Count me as not a fan of the military look. But I do agree with the judges ~ they're all talented.

I kept thinking Seth had ear muffs on. Silly me.

How impressive that Seth Aaron was inspired by the appearance of Hitler's and Stalin's military. One is almost left speechless. On the other hand, it's good to see that his models, who apparently have just left their gig in Robert Palmer's Addicted to Love video, haven't aged in the ensuing 25 or so years.

I preferred both Emilio and Mila to the winner, but..whatever.

Of the three, I actually preferred Mila's. It just seemed a wee bit more feminine. I absolutely hated the color palette that Emilio chose (that baby poop green color is not a color that's easily worn by most women). Seth's was a wee bit too too for me.

That said, I'm glad Seth Aaron won. He did put on a "show", didn't he?

Plus I really didn't want to see the monstrous ego that was Emilio winning.

WRT the models show/reunion... sure were a lot of snarky comments flying, along with the apologies. But the comment Jay made about Cerie (or however you spell it) was absolutely rude and inappropriate. I thought he was fairly juvenile during the show and he just proved it. He had no place in the finale. Bitter much, Jay?

Once again the winner was not my fav designer. Loved Emilio's selections, especially the teal short jacket that belted at the waist and the gold gown. However as a very talented designer he will do well and the show will only increase his visibility.

I liked Seth Aaron's collection. I thought his use of color was "fresh," to overuse a term. To me, I had seen Emilio's stuff before, particularly the color (I wore that red and blue with black in the 80's). Nothing looked special to me, other than his gown. I didn't like his name print in the print challenge, and I didn't like it now, but I'm not a fan of wearing people's names. If they want me to be a walking billboard for them, they should pay me to wear their clothes, not the other way around. I just don't care for the starkness of Mila's aesthetic, but she certainly does what she does well.

While Seth Aaron was my favorite going in, I loved Emilio's collection the best. The gown was beautiful. I did not care for Mila's outfits at all. But the outfits she made all season never appealed to me either so it was no surprise to me that I did not care for her collection.

I loved Seth Aaron's collection from a "show" standpoint and totally get why he won, but I found Emilio's more wearable. I was not impressed with how badly he took it though; I guess he thought it was a forgone conclusion that he was the winner.
Jay's comments at the reunion show were horrible.

Seth Aaron was my fave throughout, however, Jay's was my favorite collection based on the links that Tishala provided earlier. (I surprised even myself with this opinion!)

Agree that Jay's personal comment about Cerie, who is utterly stunning, was really horrible. Sadly, that's the kind of thing that can make a woman, particularly one whose job is based on how they look, terribly insecure for the rest of their lives. What an arse thing to do and say.

It might be interesting to see if any models' agents return Jay's calls if he needs some at some point. It was horribly insulting and nasty to say what he did.

I never understand why they pick the one they do, but then I never understand why the designer shows have so much stuff that no one would ever wear either.

I liked Emilios best, Seth Arron next and then Milas. It seemed like all Mila had was leggings (and of course tops, but the leggings stood out), it was hard to see if there was a skirt or anything else.

Well, if Jay's comment about Cerie was bad (and it was), Anthony's comment about Mila was even worse because he knows her! Thankfully, Emilio told Jay "You need to apologize" and he did; Anthony's apology to Mila was accompanied by, "I already apologized. I can't give her a kidney." Way to minimize your nastiness. They both struck me as people who hate women.

*Cerie's comments about Jay, BTW, were incredibly unwarranted and nasty. She tried to cover her tracks, but she can also get bent AFAIC

Oh, and Mr Gunn? Enough. We get it. You don't like Emilio. Trying to get other designers to talk smack about him after the fact, when you know the confessionals encourage designers to talk smack? Ridiculous. Having it backfire and having the designers tell you how trash talking you are? Priceless. I loved Mr Gunn before this season but his pettiness and unprofessionalism this season have chastened me.

I really liked all three collections. I had favorites from all of them. I didn't care for Seth Aaron's Judy Jetson purple dress, and I really disliked the one outfit Emilio had with the really short skirt with the pockets. But they all had some really nice outfits and I thought all three of them did a great job of showing them as a collection.

I think in the long run it might be good for Emilio that he didn't win, though he still seems pretty arrogant.

Wondered what qualified Faith Hill to judge in a final like this?

Anyway, all three had worthiness in their collections.

The winning one.. just not a theme I appreciate and I was SO distracted by his horrid hairstyle.. a blogger pointed out that it would be hard for his son to rebel when his dad walked around looking like that.

His everyday hair style is so much better than the plastered down shingle side and the rooster top!

YAYAY!!! I'm so happy with the outcome. I just got to watch it and I truly felt Seth Aaron earned it. Mila's was very boring I felt, a step down from her other stuff, and even her 3 piece showing. Emilio (and I will admit to being biased as his arrogance and ego finally got around to bugging me too...took me longer than some others, but it hit lol), just lacked the flow and cohesiveness of a collection I thought. And there was no segue at all to that lovely gown. Just BOOM.

I liked the flow of Seth Aaron's pieces and the way they made sense one to the other. And a few were stunning. I thought that shorter black and white sriped dress was amazingly lovely. So add a solid collection with him being such a great guy and I'm happy! YAY.

2 last comments. Am I the only one who questions if he really is 37? Sure seems older to me no? And I sure would love to have seen what Anthony would have done as a collection. I'm betting he hits some real success down the road...and I sure hope so. I think he was the most innovative and fun designer. I hope to see more from him, plus him as well. He's a party in a bottle lolol

OH I knew I forgot one thing. I thought that Heidi's outfit was absolutely HIDEOUS!!! The black top part was very interesting and then it lost me totally. Horrid print, fabric and shape IMHO that did nothing for her. And those shoes with it? Ewwwww. And then when she did her cutesy pose in said shoes....OH MY. She was just a hot mess IMHO!

For the record, Heidi's hideous outfit was Gucci.

WoW Tish was it really? Well just goes to show anyone can make hideous clothes LOLOL. Either that or maybe not all high fashion is my cup of tea. And those clunky shoes made it that much worse IMHO. Ironically I've seen similar shoes that I thought looked adorable...but they gotta work with the outfit. IMHO these did not in a big way!

Wasn't there a link earlier where we can look at all their collections? didn't quite a few other than the final 3 actually make collections?
I think there was a link earlier to photos of them, but can't seem to find. thanks.

I finally finished watching the final show ans reunion show. I'm happy Seth Aaron won. I wished the reunion show was longer than a half hour.

I think that if Emilio had taken Tim Gunn's advice on the home visit, he may have won. It could be that at that point their relationship was so bad that there just wasn't any trust there.

I personally would wear Emilio's and Mila's looks long before I would wear anything of Seth Aaron's. That being said, having viewed this show every season and having read the Project Rungay blog religiously, I was not surprised that Seth Aaron got the win. And SA does seem like a very nice guy. But I did feel very sorry for Emilio, he seemed hurt.

I also thought Heidi's outfit was awful. I paused the DVR to see it from all sides to figure out what it was supposed to look like. If that's Gucci, I'll pass. I thought one of the designers had made it or something.

Re Ceri, I didn't find her comment about Jay rude. She did nail what type of clientelle would like his designs. Jay constantly made designs unflattering to women and was told to stop, but didn't care.

Compared to the 3 finalists, Jay's designs seemed immature, if that's a way to describe clothing.

I saw a picture of Heidi's dress during the Gucci show and it actually looked good on the model but I agree that it was not right for Heidi. I also think that since she's now had 4 kids, Heidi is a bit thicker in the abdomen and hips than she used to be (as almost any woman would be) but she hasn't changed the way she dresses to reflect that.
