What a sad sack of potatoes.

At this point in time, I should be unsurprised because only once has the person I really wanted to win a season of Project Runway actually done so. But I can't understand why anyone thinks rompers and looking like a washed up 70's lady of the canyon is somehow considered fashionable? Ugh. It was really boring. Also, the arguments put forth by two judges were RIDICULOUS in the extreme. Ugh. Ugh. How lame is it that I would rather go back and watch old seasons, even knowing the inevitable outcome, because I am so displeased by this?

I really loved Andy's collection. It was glamorous without being kitschy. I also really dig those headpieces. They reminded me of some of the pieces of the Phillip Treacy hats a few challenges ago. The silver and green worked well together. Hated the weird swimsuit. But I'd rather wear a weird swimsuit than the diaper shorts in the granola collection.

What really puzzles me about Garcia and Kors in their arguments about trend - Mondo's collection has that vintage meets DIY hipster geek girl thing in spades. Kor's nasty snap "Hello, read a magazine" should have been thrown right back at him with "Hello look at the internet."

At least the weather is nice.

I am so annoyed at PR. Where the fuck is any woman supposed to wear that godawful shorts? I'd get fired if I showed up to work in them, and arrested for pubic lewdness anywhere else. Also, loose and flowy clothes only look flattering about at two people in the entire world AND HER PANTS WERE FUCKING PLEATED! No one should wear pleated pants ever. EVER!!!

If pleated pants come back, I'm going to start punching people.

I didn't care for Andy's collection, but it was better than fucking Gretchen's.

Also, as my friend Carrie said, I'd wear Mondo like a backpack. I fucking LOVED those plaid pants. I want to own them immediately.

I could completely see you rocking Mondo style. Or even Andy's silver dress! But Gretchen? No way. If I saw you in those clothes I would have to ask if you'd been using acid tabs you found in the archives.

Pleated pants don't look good on anyone.

I just read this again, so now I must apologize for all the writing errors. I blame equal parts margaritas at happy hour and rage.

Hahah I read it on my phone when I first woke up so none of that even registered with me.

I was shocked, too. I can't imagine anyone looking good in those clothes! They were so... bad crunchy granola. There was nothing interesting about them. It was like Yo-Yo Granny Square Girl Angela had come back with new fabrics.
