What irritates me about Gretchen is that she has the need to critique everyone else....as if she were one of the judges! She sure is full of herself.

Mondo for the win.....I LOVE his boldness and designs.

(I thought April's fabric looked like it was covered in scrotums...)

Nobody was even in the same class as Mondo this week. He's probably my favorite designer this show has had since Christian Siriano.

Gretchen's ensemble was nice but unlike Mr Kors, I didn't like that weird half circle in the back. I thought her comments about Mondo's revelation were lovely...it was truly beneficial for each of them, as Tim later said, that they were there to see his bravery.

I was very disappointed in Andy and Christopher this week. Didn't see anything especially interesting about April's either, since it looked like the bodice didn't fit right.

And what was that trashy Married to the Mob meets Dynasty creation Michael designed? If they were doing dreary retro, it would have been perfectly appropriate, but oh em gee. And the hair? And the shoes? I mean, I know he lives in Palm Springs and all, but still...

I absolutely love Mondo. He may be my favorite ever. He puts fabrics together that you would think would never work and ends up with something beautiful, interesting and amazing.

I hope it's Gretchen!!!!! She mind's everybody;s business but her own. I am sick of her critiqing everybody else's outfits. She should mind her own business and pay attention to Gretchen. I can't stand her.

Tish, Christian Siriano may be my all-time favorite designer. But, I'm loving me some Mondo.

Another Mondo fan here. He's been my favorite since the second show when he was crying because he was lonely and didn't think he'd make friends. He's come so far since then and has an amazing talent. Hope he wins it all.
Plus, he's so adorable I just want to take him home and keep him as a pet or something.

I haven't sewn/designed an outfit in many many years but as green as I am I could have done something more interesting that all of them except Mondo. Plain or dull are the words I would use to describe this weeks designs except of course Mondo.

Gretchen is so unlikable. And there was no need to say how poor her family/mother is, like they'd have to pay their own way to the show duh! I'm sure her mom appreciated hearing her say that on TV.

I was happy that Mondo didn't tell his mom about his HIV status on her trip, he's a very sensitive guy.

I still like Mike C but his dress was go awful....what was he thinking and who would where that dress.

BTW, can Heidi find anything shorter to wear????? My GOD!.

I agree, the prints were dull and duller this week except for Mondo - his was fashion foward!

I also loved Christian Siriano's designs-he has been my fav!

I think the cheating thing will be Gretchen accusing Michael. She has accused him in the past of taking other peoples design ideas (even though he didn't). Last week she got all bent out of shape when he "stole" her color. I didn't realize Gretchen had a patent on "bordeaux".

I cannot stand Gretchen or her designs. Therefore, she will be in the final 3 and probably win the whole thing.

... and I have to laugh because Gretchen, who has yet to win a challenge as far as I can remember, was "grading" outfits last night in her confessionals. And despite what the judges said, I couldn't stand her textile. I totally didn't get her POV from her textile.

Here's an extended preview for next week.

It's funny, I was just thinking how it seems like the serious drama left with Ivy, it looks like it's back in full force next week. Should be interesting. Since they love to mislead us in trailers I'm wondering if it's actually someone besides Gretchen and Michael who engage in accusations of cheating. Looked for some spoilers but couldn't find anything.

Anyway, back to this week...

I agreed with the judges right down the line.

Yay for Mondo!!! I just like that guy more and more every week.

Lexie -- I think Gretchen won the very first challenge. Nothing since then though.

If you want, there are photos of the fashion week collections out there. No spoilers, really, because they had them a couple weeks ago and everyone who was still a contestant at that point showed (I think it was the week Cassanova was eliminated...his collection was, as you can probably predict, a hot mess)

OK, I'll just supply the links. All are to Project Rungay.

Andy
April
Casanova
Christopher
Gretchen
Ivy
Michael C
Michael D
Mondo

I know some people don't want us to discuss the runway collections, so I'll put my very brief thoughts in a spoiler box

I LOVE Andy and Mondo's collections. If one of those two doesn't win, it's a travesty

I thought she won the first two challenges.

I just checked. She won the first two and has been in the top 3 an additional three times.

Thanks for the links Tish. I'm wondering why Valery isn't included? Everyone who left after Casanova is included except Valery. Weird.

Thanks for clarifying Gretchen's number of wins Hermione.

I honestly don't see whatever it is the judges see in Gretchen. Her designs have ranged from boring to downright ugly as far as I've seen. I hated that funky circular thingie on tha back of her pants this week. I didn't like her print at all. I've disliked designers before and still been able to like their designs, so I don't think it's just because I can't stand Gretchen. If I thought her designs were great, I would still be able to respect her work. I just don't get what she's done that's so great.

Isn't the model in Michael C's collection who is showing us her nippies (towards the end of the collection), one of the models from last year?

the last girl looks really familiar. She's not Brandise, but she was one of the models last season, I think
