Project Runway - Whats Your Sign?

What kind of show will project Runway be if Blayne (Mr. Tanorexic) and Terri (I'll kick your ass) are no longer around? Well, I guess we will find out next week. Two of our most colorful (literally) characters have been sent packing and not only was I shocked; I was actually just a little sad.

This week's episode (in a full-fledged ratings blitz) brought back all of the eliminated designers to pair them up with the contestants still competing. Each team of two had to create an avant garde look inspired by the astrological sign of one of the team members. This look was then voted on by past Project Runway designers. Their votes decided who stayed and who was eliminated. As always with good reality television, some of the teams worked (Jerell and Jennifer, Leanne and Emily) and others did not (Terri and Keith!).

With a look based on his sign, Sagittarius, Jerell created a fabulous skirt, top and jacket. The whole look was clearly well thought out and well made and although Tim was not crazy about the fabric for the skirt; I actually really enjoyed the way that it looked with the other pieces.


Just to add another crazy twist to last night, two of the designers were sent packing. The first was Blayne. He was paired with Stella and they worked completely in sync. The outfit was just heinous. It made no sense and as Michael Kors stated, "she (the model) looked like she is pooping fabric." I have not always been a fan of Blayne but I must say that the workroom may be a little boring without his tan self. He at least made me laugh.


The second designer to get the ax was Terri. Terri's outfit was cheap, ugly and plastic looking. Not one part of this creation was memorable in a good way. Plus Terri and Keith had such a bad working relationship that I almost (almost) felt a little sorry for Keith. I am not entirely certain that Terri could work with anyone but the Keith pairing was doomed from the start. She was mean, disrespectful and condescending to him the entire time. Now he was not completely faultless but he did try to help as much as possible and she was unwilling to give him an opportunity. Terri was (is) talented and I am sure that she was pissed to be sent home but in no way can that outfit be blamed on anyone but herself.


Other notes from last night: Kenley is getting way too overconfident. She truly believed that her "wicked witch of the west " (Tim's words not mine) outfit last night was inspired and I must say it was just hideous. I did love that Leanne and Emily were talking smack about Kenley only because she dishes it out constantly. Its hard when karma bites you in the ass. And thank you Michael Kors for saying something about poor, deluded Suede and his third person crap. I love it when the judges talk shit. Later taters.
