I agree with you completely... underwhelming is the only word to describe it...but since they were suppose to use three words- underwhelming, safe, boring. Uli did have the best dress, design coupled with her use of fabric. I can't tell you how sick of Laura's outfits I am... Jeffery gave it a shot, he tried something different and I appreciate that. Michael just missed the boat on this one as well... kinda bored of this show...I loved it last year, not sure what the deal is...

My criticism has less to do with the designers and more with the direction the show has taken over the last couple of episodes. First, they bring back Angela and Vincent unnecessarily, then, in last night's episode, they can't make up their minds who should be auf'd, so they deflate the show's suspense by including all four designers at Bryant Park. [It's a competition for Christ's sake! Olympians are separated by tenths of seconds!] Then we find out at a commercial break that their gonna have a retrospective, as it were, before the finale. They may know silhouettes but they don't know jack about ratcheting up tension. Hitchcock would roll over in his grave. And finally, has anybody ever informed Michael Kors that it's beyond stupid to be seen wearing the same thing day in and day out? He's like the male Fran Lebowitz--if that's not a redundancy.

I was pleasantly surprised by the judges’ decision to let all four go to Olympus Fashion Week, although I was not so excited by the garments from the last challenge.

First off—kudos to Uli. It was a huge surprise with a completely different cut and silhouette from her. I was not thrilled by her last-minute action to change models from Lindsay to Nazri, but when I saw Nazri walking down the runway, it made total sense to me. I don’t think Lindsay could make the garment come alive the way Nazri did…. Hats off to Nazri who’s been a great model for Keith, Michael, and now Uli.

Laura could have been sent home. I thought it was terribly uninspiring to hear her say she was going to design something safe for the last challenge, and then the garment looked exactly like a dress Laura had worn on the show. She has good taste, but to be a top designer, it needs more than good taste.

Poor Michael Knight—I was as disappointed as the judges. He was good at coming up with something when there was an “assignment,” but when he was left to his own devices, we suddenly found out he might not have enough inside of him to draw from. Like Nina said, it’s surprising to see he didn’t seem to know what his strength was. It really showed his lack of experience and maturity as a designer. Think about what he showed at audition: he brought in garments he made based on last season’s challenges. Now it really makes sense to me to see that he really doesn’t know how to look for inspiration; he is more suited for working with parameters.

And Michael’s evening gown last night was absolutely vulgar—Uli was not that far off when she said Michael’s photo of Clarissa looked like a sex ad…. I feel that the issue lends itself to Michael’s aesthetics: what does it mean to be an African American designer? What does it mean when he said that he even gave a white girl some ass with that garment? What kind of women would help make his clothes look better—sexy but not vulgar? Would it make any difference had Nazri modeled the very same dress for him last night?

Jeffrey’s red, white, and blue dress was a completely wrong route for him to take. Like Uli and Michael, Jeffrey tried very hard to come up with something different, but the romantic notion was a poor attempt to surprise the judges and failed miserably with the design. That dress was ridiculously amateurish for someone who made it into the final four. I think it was his previous garments that saved his ass from being eliminated. (I think his couture gown was indeed romantic yet provocative, and would photo extremely well for the editorial challenge)

So last night three designers took risks. Two made the wrong turn. The predictable Laura was consistent yet uninspiring. Now I think the winner is either Uli or Michael, depending on their final collections. We don’t need to award another designer who only makes cocktail/eveningwear even though Laura’s clothes will be fairly marketable. And Jeffrey should probably continue to design for rock stars only.

I don't think the judges expected the desiners to do so poorly. I think they were expecting to be able to boot off Uli. However, since the other designers totally sucked it up, they had to keep her. I think this led to the decision to put all four through. There was a snippet of a preview not to long ago in which Heidi stated that the final three was not actually final. I think Uli may go yet. There will probably br some sort of competition with a final piece that will decide the final three. Just wait.

Please let us not let the total selfish and mean spiritedness of Jeffery be overcast by the hum drum drumming of last nights episode. I do not watch the show for ties. What happened to the judges mulling the designer's ability to appeal to the masses, woo buyers, and keep that profit making acumen at a high gear. Jeffery lacks all, Micahel could manage, Laura would soar, and Uli would learn. Jeffery is a mess. He used to really bug me and now I am appalled at his lack of grace and adequate vocabulary. At least he's consistent. I keep hoping Michael will catch him being mean and open a can of whup ass from the hood on him. No such luck...
Jeffery reminds me of the kids at school and the adults at work that you learn to ignore and they never go away. He is one of life's lessons that if you have lemons you can make a flavorful refreshment that conjures sunny memories, or you have a face with a puckered piehole. What a waste of a contestent space. Again, producers: what the heck were you thinking? ratings and taste do not equate here. sorry pards, you are off the bag and have lost my interest.

I was very let down with last nights show. Way to build up the suspense............all 4 are going?!? I agree...this is a competition-there are winners and losers. And Jeffrey-PLEASE!!! His negative comments about all of his fellow designers are just awful and rude, and clearly shows that he does not have any sort of heart, tact, or class. Anyone with one ounce of class would not say such nasty things. Speaking of which-what in gods name was his garment? Something for one of the seven dwarfs?? Talk about tacky. There was nothing "romantic" about that frock!! Michael's dress was a little boring...and I think the judges are actually on to something when they say that he should stick to sportswear. He has a definite knack for that, and people will buy sportswear more than they will buy rhinestone studded pants that Jeff likes to make. As for Laura, I love her clothing and funny, it resemebles the clothing that Michael Kors designs. Hmmm....As for Uli, I am so bored with her stuff. Although if she hadn't taken Nazri from Michael, I don't think her garment would have won the challenge. Nazri totally fit the dress and looked amazing. She is by far the most beautiful model. Maybe if Micheal had been able to continue using her, he would have been inspired to designe something a little different. I am still pulling for Michael. I think all around he is the best. I am so sick of Heidi Klum. I will probably not tune in next season....it is just getting too "stale."

I agree with all of you. Last nights episode was an absolute bore. The garments, including Uli's was totally uninspired. In my opinion the only designer that took a risk was Michael. He bombed on the couture challenge and decided to give the evening gown another shot. I didn't like the gown, but I give Michael an 'A' for effort. Jeffrey's idea of a romantic outfit is right up there with the couture gown and cocktail dress...tacky!
I absoultely love Laura's designs, but like the judges mentioned we've seen enough of those party dresses with the plunging necklines.
I seriously believe that Nazri made the difference for Uli. I hated the fact that Uli stole Nazri from Michael, but she undoubtedly is the best model of the lot. No matter who wins the competiton, Nazri certainly desrves the spread in Elle!

I agree with most of the comments. I think that Uli taking Michael's model was horrible and it just goes to show that she really should nt be in the final 4. I am still pulling for Michael b/c he is willing to take himself to different places as a designer and I think that is important. Jefffrey can ony seem to design for models and this is not good b/c most of the women are size 10 and up. Laura need to just go home and be a mom b/c she can't design at the level she needs to

Comparing last year's final Runway candidates to this year's it seems the judges and producers are determined to have one lousy "designer" (and I use that term very very loosely) in the final group. Last year it was Santini and this year it is Jeffery. Santini did have vision in his "creations"; he was just so filled with ego he would not listen to the judges when they offered him tips and pointers, such as constructing his garmets so they would stay together on his models and attempting to fit his garmets to his models. Santini might as well have worn his own garmets as they never fit his models. Jeffery this year has had no vision in his so-called creations. While it was the decision of the judges to allow 4 people in the final group, Jeffrey should not have been one of them. Kane was definitely robbed this year. They should have brought Kane back last night to compete again. But they didn't, assuring that either Michael, Laura or Uli will win the competition. There is no way Jeffery will come up with outfits elegant enough to win because he does not have that vision. Jeffery will appear at Fashion Week with his jeweled crotch shouting four letter words of vulgarity just the way Santini did last year. This is not the way to present a fashion show - it is the perfect example of how NOT to WOW the judges and more importantly the public. Jeffery seems to have no concept of the fact that there is a class of people who care about whether their designer is cordial and polite to other people. Jeffery has the same ego problem as Santini and it will cost him. His style may very well work with his California hippies crowd but it will not work with other people he will want to purchase his picnic tablecloth style of clothing. Sadly, Jeffery has no sense of what elegance or romance looks like in clothing he makes. If he had spent less time each week bashing the other designers and had spent more time checking his ego and mouth at the door, he might have been been able to improve himself. Should each judge and the producers involved in making the determination of the Project Runway winner this season all have a major stroke at the same time and Jeffery is declared the winner, it would be the biggest setback the design world could imagine. I was so glad Uli won last night. Although she has persisted in using prints almost every week she has shown to me a variance in the prints used and the style of her designs. Hers last night was the most elegant. Michael and Laura both were not up to par last night but again their designs were much more elegant than Jeffery's. Perhaps at the Fashion Week competition, Jeffery can come up with different colors for his picnic tablecloths. Very sadly the lasting impression Jeffery has left with most people is his disrespect for other people and his inability to keep from uttering nasty four letter words. For these very reasons I would not want to buy any clothing of his because I would not want to put money in the pocket of someone who cannot be halfway civilized to other people.

The contestants on PR design in their own comfort zone. For Laura it's mature evening wear, for Uli, it's beach and cruise wear, for Jeffrey it's rock and goth and Michael seemed to be a little more varied in his designs. Lauras work is impeccable and her designs are meant for a mature woman, although she did design several casual outfits and was criticised for them. Uli's talent is being able to put crazy prints together. She has designed the same dress at least 8 out of the 11 episodes. Nothing she has designed could be worn in an office or anywhere else other than on a cruise ship or a beach. Jeffrey sees himself as a rock star designer...eh. Everything he designs would only be worn by a rock star...what mature woman in her right mind would wear his cloths? Again nothing he has designed could be worn in an office in most cities. Maybe L.A.... As for Michael, he's all over the place and is still not sure of himself. I had to laugh when Michael Kors suggested that Michael Knights "nitch" is casual design. If he only designed casual clothing, they would be saying that he was too limited!!!! Damned if you do and damned if you don't. Every designer on all 3 episodes had a design nitch where they felt safe. I don't blame Laura for going with a safe design. She wanted to make sure she got into the final 3. I must say I was really surprised at Uli...what a crappy thing to do to Michael on such an important episode. Play with his head. How deceitful of her to pretend to be everyone's friend and then stab them in the back!!! I think just for that she should lose the challange. It shows a lack of integrity on her part. Finally, I think the show needs to consider putting other judges in next season for a different point of view. Thanks for listening.

I've read all the comments and have to post my 2 cents. Michael is clearly talented and lost his mind doing an evening dress but what was up with the dress Jeffrey presented??? His brain went out the window. The judges let him through based upon his earlier outfits and same for Michael. Uli and Laura have repeated styles, we see the same variations of them week to week but clearly Uli had the most decisive move in grabbing Michaels model. That was strategic and a powerful move. Just the fact that she listened to the judges and tried to step out of her same old, helped too. Laura clearly has the execution talent and the most beautiful work. It shows. Don't take that for granted, she knows what looks great. Michael has the most promise in diversity of style for wearable clothes with an urban feel. However, Jeffrey might surprise everyone. He's more than rock starish. His attitude might suck but he has had some really cool clothes on the runway. I'm glad all four are going to show collections, that shows smarts on the whole judging strategy. Last season was such a disappointment when Daniel didn't win. For the same reasons Uli and Laura are getting dissed is why the winner last season won! Where is she now? Not even mentioned hardly. Didn't really want to wow the industry. So who could WOW the industry this year? Michael or Jeffrey. It's whether you want a cohesive collection or an edgy collection. I think there should be two winners this season. All 4 should be congratulated for doing so well. This season was so much more fun than last. Santino was rude no doubt, Jeffrey might win it all. I have faith in his designs and who cares about his attitude? You gotta love his mom's comment, "She's proud of him and how far he has come" We can forgive the disaster dress and look forward to the collection. It will tell all....If the judges take everything in like they did last season then clearly Laura is going to be the winner for execution, consistancy and beauty... Has anyone really thought about how hard it is for her to work being pregnant, having all those kids to worry about and doing as well as she has? The black lace dress was amazing. She can sew circles around ALL of the other designers. Uli is great too but you can just see the difference. Laura is a master perfectionist in her work. Michael is a force to be recognized. I bet he ends up working for Michael Koors.

I hate to say it, but the finale will be anticlimactic. I think the judges are playing it as safe as the designers.

The Web site and episode descriptions are horrible. It doesn't even mention who the finalists are...which is why I came to the site!!! Only by looking through these comments did I see that all 4 made it.
All said, I hope Michael wins. Last year it should have been Daniel. They don't, to me, pick based on talent and overall performance. Chole was so-so...as was her final collection. It seemed as if Daniel should have been the winner and that they picked Chole just to do something unexpected/have a "surprise"...which seemed unfair.

He should have been disqualified after he was so VERY, VERY disrespectful to Angela's mother. His thinking is so warped he automatically assumed Angela and her mother were out to get him! For him to think that, must be because it is something he would do. Shame on him!

I must say that I hope Michael win at fashion week, he has the most realistic outfits, for everday wear. Lets face it he is the most versatile in the group. I am definitely for Michael. By the way, Michael Kor, what's up with the same outfit every night. Do you think you are being a role model for Uli and Laura?

For the next series, the judges should NOT know who the designer of a particular outfit is.

You can tell by some of the comments that the judges make that they have certain expectations from the designers and when those expectations are not met (even if the quality of their work is good) it is held against them.

The judges really don't listed to the designer's comments or explanations as to why they designed an outfit the way they did. They ask the question but already have their opinion of the piece and that opinion is swayed/clouded by their preconception of the designer.

So much has been said regarding Jeffery during the Everyday Woman episode. After watching the re-runs, one comment of his did stand out in my mind...he said he was not used to designing clothes for this kind of body. And the winner of the challenge made it quite apparent to me, that even though the fashion industry has made strides in designing for an average body type, they still see the clothes as un-fashionable ( as I do, after visiting my local department store!) they re-warded the typical size 6 even though Uli made a beautiful garment. I believe most designers are so used to dressing a model 0-6, they are truly stumped by an average woman. I am 5"4 size 16 with DDD chest...although I love this show and have an opinion about fashion, I so very rarely am I able to apply it to my own life and enjoy it...in fact, it is quite the opposite..I am driven to tears after going shopping.... maybe this show can address this issue next season...

The model surely makes the dress look at its best and that is why he did not win the challenge. He is still the best out there since he knows what the public wants when it comes to fashion.Uli has shown the same beachwear over abd over, Laura has shown us evening wear that many of us do not get often times to wear, and Jeffry the punk has the craziest ideas when it comes to fashion. He also
has no personality to make it in a world were being nice to others should be of the utmost importance.

I really have to agree.....on two counts. We were all looking forward to an elimination - the final three would have been the way to go. How anticlimatic to have all four remain! I was so upset! Jeffery should have been eliminated! The only garment worth merit was his "couture" gown. He just hasn't shown the class in either design or character to merit remaining on the show! Michael, Laura and Uli all have wonderful talent and deserved to be the final three! Too bad Kayne didn't make it - he has talent!
As for the judges - I can't stand Nina Garcia; she's so annoying and just plain nasty at times. She never looks well dressed - and that hair! I like Michael Kors, but let's mix it up a little - different designers would bring a fresh perspective to each competition, and probably a different outcome!

Sure, Uli took Michael's model. You play the cards you're dealt.
Sure, none of their outfits were particularly inspiring, but at least Uli's photo had some interest. Her outfit blended right in with the scene she created.
People complain that they wouldn't wear Jeffrey's designs or Uli's or whoevers.What about Laura's? Are you going to walk around with that V-neck? Most of us in the real world have boobs that would pop out out it: newsflash.

This is the first season of Project Runway that I've watched so I don't know what to compare it to but all I know is "Mike Is the Bomb" Uli's designs are "cute." I like the way she uses print and her accent is so funny. Laura... I don't know what to say about her. I'm just not feeling the whole baby doll, high waisted cocktail look she's into. Just doesn't float my boat. Jeffrey is a complete baddie. I literally cried on the episode where he had to work with Angela's mom. I felt so bad. One because she was the last picked and 2 because he didn't make it any better. I didn't see anything wrong in what she saying. Just sounded like an opinion to me. He doesn't like Angela so he took it out on moms. Jeffrey... You outta be ashamed of yourself.

I 'm pulling for Michael...He has the best overall designer qualities. Yes his last dress was too basic, however if you look at the whole season as a collection, he's right on point. Besides you will never love everything in one particular designers collection-there will always be one or two pieces that you will not like. Go...Michael!!!!

The reason Kayne wasn't brought back in that episode is because he hadn't been auf'd yet! Jeff is obnoxious, condescending, rude and any other adjective you want to insert but the reality is, he makes good tv and that's why I believe he made it to the end. The producers want to keep us tuning in for his antics. No way he'll win the competition. I'm rooting for Michael or Laura. Both of their collections should be awesome!

Can someone please tell me the episode where the word "DECOY" was mentioned???? I have watched some of these episodes 5 or 6 times and I don't recall ever hearing that word. What makes everyone think that only 3 designers will show in fashion week? I saw the pictures of everyone's work going down the runway. Am I wrong???? I wasn't there but that's what it looked like to me. Why would they ask all 4 designers to go home, design and make 13 outfits and then only 3 would be allowed to show their work on the runway? That would be cruel!!! Worse than flying Angela all the way to Paris and then bringing her right back. I think there is only one winner and three second place winners. Am I wrong....please tell me.

Also...I heard some bloggers mention about the 'BATHING SUIT' Why didn't Laura show a bathing suit etc. Again, I don't remember hearing that a bathing suit was required. I think if your future designs take you in that area then that's where you went, like Uli. But why would a designer, like Laura, who only designs gowns and evening wear show a bathing suit??? Can anyone tell me??? Did I miss an entire episode of PR where all this was explained????

Michael is the man, even though I hated his couture gown. He has been the most versatile, in designing to what the challenge requires. Someone said something about him not be innovative to design without guidance, are you serious. If you asked him to design something for you, your mother, and your father he would nail it. If Uli did it you would look like the three stooges, all alike. And yes this is a competition so what Uli did was a competitve action, I did not like what she did but the judges allow this to happen. The worse part of what she did is that she did at the end of the competition, which was completely unfair because she is really not that great so Nazri may loose because of her selfishness. Hopefully the idiot judges will allso crown the best model (Nazri) as well as designer. Laura (boring I did not like that black cocktail dress, too old fashioned for my taste. Jeffrey he is what he is (he acts like his clothes look)

I stand alone in my opinion that Jeffrey's romantic outfit for this challenge was innovative. I absolutely LUH-HUVED the design of the white skirt, and while I could have done without all the little ball attachments to the bodice, I thought the colors were fun and rich...it was playful and romantic in a little-girl-going-to-a-tea-party kind of way. Laura is stale at times, but I like her for some deep down reason...I guess because she always shows maturity and class (atleast in her clothes if not always in her comments). Michael is the bomb-diggity...I just want to pinch his cheeks...both pairs! Uli...all I have to say is nothing because I'm too busy yawning.

I'm not crazy about Jeffrey either, but can't wait to see what he puts together for a collection.. You can predict what Uli and Laura will do. (Yawn) Michael is by far the best designer on this show and the most humble. It is definitely between Jeffrey and Michael. I do think Kayne should be in this final show. He has the best personality and I thought his coutour dress was awesome. He is the Andre of this season. Andre has been my favorite hands down and the most entertaining. I love his dramatic personality. My daughter and I still do the "Andre thing" when going through a door. I agree with what someone else said, bring back the best from all the seasons. as far as this season goes, I'm predicting an easy win for Michael!

As for those who say Laura is boring because she has only one style, perhaps, and she pulls it off BEAUTIFULLY!! I'd like to see them tell Diane Von Furstenburg to quit designing wrap dresses! Ha! Is SHE boring? I don't think so, because she creates the most beautiful and adorable wrap dresses ever. Laura, Uli, or Michael should win (in that order). Jeffrey is such a jerk of a human being that he doesn't deserve to win even if his designs WEREN'T garbage.

Was totally bored. I just thought there would be more exciting designs to be seen. Jeffery is so egotistical and he acts like no one matters but himself. I think that if he were some big designer, that tatoo around the neck would deter serious shoppers from attaining his work. I thought he was very rude to Angela's mother and yet, he still, as of tonight on the reunion show, could not admit how rude he was.
Vincent has that better than thou thing going on but he does have some very good ideas and points.
Laura is very good at what she does but so boring in her typical design. It is as though she is only designing for herself in this competition. I wish she would have shown more!
Uli is just too print seeking! I think all of her work was the same for the entire season and the last that she won the competition for, was exact except for the length. How is that any different?? Makes no sense to me why she would win with the same production as always.
Michael is so good at what he does and I do hope he wins the competition. We will know soon whom it will be!
My true wish was for Milan to win. Darn!

Yeah Ok, Everyone likes Michael. He is an alright designer. Although I must say Jeffery and Uli are outstanding. Both of them are unique and fashionably loud. I could actually see a clothing line come from the two of them. Me, Myself would never wear their designs but most TRUE designers clothing are over the top. Laura, ehhh. . . She is boring boring boring. I'm sorry but I'm not interested in bussiness woman clothing line. At least Michael has some taste and youth to his designs. I think Kane or even Keith deserves to be in Lauras spot. She flat out bores me. Personalty wise she seems like a wonderful woman. But this show isn't about personalty. This is about fashion.

Reunion tension.
Okay. Two things about poor behavior and sickening self centeredness, then general about the personalities this season.

Keith. Throughout Keith reminded me of a petulant, spoiled, little boy, used to being bailed out or trying to schmooze his way out. His latest on the reunion is to first say that he didn't know that he couldn't have the books which led to his expulsion. Then, as he watches the reaction of others on the set, he states that the books were taken by the producers at check in then brought back to his room and he had no idea how they got there. Hmmmm. People often change "stories" (often aptly termed lies, no matter how much the liar convinces themselves that it is the new truth). When they gauge that the reaction is not going the way they want it, chiselers change tactics (like watching a side show gypsy tell a fake fortune that changes according to how they read the reactions in the face of a customer). If any of this was the case he should have brought it up when Tim Gunn went to his room. He also didn't bring up that he allegedly did not know the rules when he spoke with the other males that night. Besides, if the producers took them at the begining and he did not know the rules, then Keith is outspoken enough that he would have questioned them right then and there and been informed on the spot. Playing along, the books are taken upon check in,this should register that you are not supposed to have them. They are "returned" no note, no reason, a reasonable person with no hidden intentions would more likely have immediately brought it to the attention of a producer, Tim, heck, grab the next camera person and show them! Each time any of this is discussed Keith gets defensive. He even stated during the show, before the book discovery episode, ("Reap what you sew") that he felt rules did not really apply to him if he could get away with it. How many thoughtless teenage pranks that could hurt others or were just plain illegal did he get out of because of parents that would not let him fail on his own and take responsibility for his actions rather than trying to always blame someone else for his own downfalls? The saddest thing... Alison seems like a sweet girl putting such a lout on a pedestal and watching him just swill up her attentiveness as if he deserves it, is nauseating. Alison has more talent and seems to have more integrity during any given day (watch her while she works in the episodes) than Keith has mustered in his entire life. I would predict that keeping him as a friend will cost her some of her wonderful charm and trust in people. If he can, he will take advantage of her talent and good nature to promote himself. If they work on anything together Keith will take credit for what Alison has accomplished and sell it to her so that she will think it was his talent that garnered acclaim. I think Keith knows when someone has more talent and/or work ethic than him and he capitalizes on it. Alison puts herself beneath him convincing herself that he deserves to have someone do what Keith deems to be menial labor for him...but he is sucking out so much more in the way of ideas at the same time.

Jeffrey. Jeffrey was an ass to Angela's mother and is too self righteous on the whole to ever look at the situation objectively enough to see that. Her mother was clear, with only a few requests for modesty. The outfit he made her walk the runway in was abbhorrent to any taste. Jeffrey made Angela's mother look like a bad costumer's idea of a downtrodden serf. Late in the episode Jeffrey says to Angela's mother that perhaps other people see something beautiful about her that she doesn't see in herself. Wow, I have used that many times, with much better results. Saying that earlier on, and with the more personal tone, that he himself sees that beauty, might have gone a lot farther towards making a successful design. He phrased it in such a way that it could easily be taken to mean "some people might see that in you but I find you to be an ugly cow." Jeffrey wasn't happy that he wasn't designing for a size 0-2 sample, guess what, most people in America aren't that size and a good design can work on a myriad of sizes (don't get catty, I am not big, I have friends that are big and I love to find styles or alter designs that show them to the best advantage, everyone has beauty, not everyone can see it, especially in themselves). If he only wanted to design for music industry people and the kids that follow them (90% of that market grows up and moves on) then he should not have gone on the show. That episode coupled with very few of Jeffrey's designs that I felt were flattering to the people wearing them (if you can't make a model look good who can you?....and if you can't make someone look good in the clothes, they might as well be naked, then where would fashion be?) made hearing his comments about how he should have won earlier made watching more footage an act of stalwartness in averting repulsion. Throughout the rest of the show Jeffrey proceeded to made snide comments about that single episode which got Vincent to make his best comment about seeing peopele's true colors. Jeffrey's ego far exceeds his taste. His stuff perhaps wasn't boring, but often it was unflattering, bully about it being "roack 'n roll" baby! A few pieces rocked, but the rest needed to roll on outta there. Some were just plain forgettable.

Kudos to most of the contestants for their wonderful attitudes and open minds. Perhaps some like watching strife, but, personal opinion, there are more important issues in the world...i.e.starvation, treatment of women in war torn parts of the world, the effects of terrorism on people just trying to live their lives (like those that work with NATO forces in hot zones, sometimes the only job around, and they are assassinated for it), the way we have become a disposable society and it's effect on the environment, the list is endless of what utter humiliations and horror humans inflict on each other and the earth we are supposed to be the caretakers of. The others in the show kept me from ditching it entirely, I have always enjoyed fashion, but lets keep it in perspective, no mass of life is being lost. The absolute pettines in some of the previous seasons' had caused me to watch this one only on a trial basis.

Everyone except Keith, Jeffrey and Vincent, were a pleasure to watch. Good competition, some healthy criticisms of each other in up front no hidden agenda terms so that the designs could be the star, not confrontation for it's own sake. I also very much enjoyed that most of the contestants were supportive of each other giving a bit of a nod to the fact that in the fashion business, as in nearly all businesses, you do not work alone and you will have to interact with each other again.

Though you might think Laura was harsh on occasion, her forthrightness was refreshing, I didn't always agree with her, but could respect her opinions because she did not mince words or wait to talk behind the backs of the others.

Last, it is so easy to see why Michael is a fan favorite, besides his talent and that almost all his items were well thought out and flattering, he is absolutely gracious. Michael is the kind of guy you would love to have as a friend just to hang out with. Makes you want to cheer him on in everything. Plus you could see him truly listen when he was given criticism. What a concept, in any design course you have to learn to accept criticism so you can step back and evaluate if what is being said would enhance your vision or if you need to stick with it a take the leap anyway. Lets face it, the contest is also a crash course in design, and wonderful opportunity for learning and expanding your view. Michael, you represent people in general wonderfully, you are truly a pleasure to watch excel.

I think that Laura and Michael should go to fashion week. I think that the two of them are very level headed and know exactly where they want to go. They both have to very distinctive styles and the best presentation. I think I like them the most because they are so calm and level headed and when they are under pressure they don't take it out on others they do what is in front of them.
Michael Knight is my favorite.

My comment is regarding the designers in general. I STILL don't get why so many people didn't like Angela. I would much rather hang out with someone like Angela than some obnoxious schmuck like Jeffrey. On last night's reunion show, Jeffrey TOTALLY lied when he said he "didn't have time" to apologize to Angela's mom. He treated Angela's mom like garbage. He's just a nasty person and I don't think he deserves to win, no matter if he has talent or not. Can't anyone see the negative cloud he has hanging around him all the time? If he would've treated MY mom like that I would have ripped him a new one! Believe me, he would have thought twice about even LOOKING at my mom after I got done with him. My money is on either Michael or Uli, I feel they are open-minded about who will be actually buying their clothing. They have the most range and depth. It's going to be a great finale and I can't wait!

I'm joining the minority here. Jeffery should win. His designs are by far the most unique, and really the only clothes I would bother to fork up the money for. This is a design competition, NOT a personality contest. He works faster than any of the other designers, and is original and cutting edge. It doesn't matter if you like him, or would hang out with him (I would), what matters is that he is more creative than the other designers. His couture dress blew everyone out of the water, not to mention his recycled trash dress. He should have won that challenge.

I was on another the Project rungay blogging site earlier today and there was a comment by one very perceptive person who showed all of Laura's designs and all of Uli's designs. Laura's designs contrary to what everyone thinks do not look alike...his theory is that the judges kept looking at her own dresses and decided that there were too many plunging necklines. However, almost everyone of Uli's designs were completely the same except for the fabric!!! If you don't believe me check it out. I can't believe she made it as far as she has.
I also noted during a rerun that she pulled the same underhanded strategy on Keith in an earlier episode by choosing his model. She blatently admitted that she thought he had the best model and she didn't want him to have an advantage. I think she thinks that the grass is always greener somewhere else. She seems not to have the confidence needed with her own skills without playing strategy games. Also she won that last challenge by default...personally, I thought her dress was hideous!!

"What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun." (BookOfEcclesiastes 1:1-11, NIV). So history unstudied is bound to repeat itself good or bad. Current politics and political policies illustrate this quite well.
Anyone who pays attention to fashion and fads in any way knows that it is also cyclical. My 16 y/o niece was wearing the same fashions that were in style in the seventies. Now the eighties are in again. None of the designs are completely new (trained designers study the history of fashion and costuming, also studied by people in theatre). Even musicians, to which Jeffrey claims affinity, know that they are often inspired knowingly and unknowingly, by past rhythms (there are only a few counts of music that are pleasant to the ears of the masses). So I will have to disagree that Jeffrey's fashions are new, inspired or unique. I lived through the decades that his style most illustrates. The best use I could see for fashion design(after tipping a toe in the industry at 14 to study under a retiring couture designer and unable to relegate my brain to such narrow pettiness) was to put newness in the execution to the fit on the figure of the customer, to make him or her feel the beauty in themselves regardless of the current fashionable body shapes, easy to do when you see beauty in all figures, something Jeffrey cannot do. Most Jeffrey's style can be found in old MTV videos (when they still had them...you know like the big hair boy bands) it really is his ego that will keep him from being able to accept constructive criticism and grow as a designer especially since he will not have time between tearing down the other designers. The reason that more people can relate to Laura, Michael and Uli is because classic is something that you can wear year after year and their main focus is on the designs. Michael Kors has made classics that stay in a womans closet well used and well loved for years, while only individual pieces from designers like Jeffrey are bought for a short season, a fad to be used as accent but soon to fade and be donated to the thrift store where a college student buys it as a joke costume for a theme party, gives it back to the thrift store and a teenager another generation down picks it back up until their tastes change. The construction only holds up if the wearers didn't get too drunk and rip the not so well made garments partying. Yet the classics are classic because they flatter and understand human proportion and those are the ones that last. There is a pronounced line between fashion and fad. Too many do not know that. As a nod to a comment by "Didi"..I am a white female, older, and I would wear Michael's designs for women without feeling at all out of my own element. Laura's I would have to adjust so my boobs wouldn't flap out and Uli's I would have to find unique underpinnings to hide the bras straps;) Though I wish I could wear either of their styles as they are classic and flattering, just no where to give a woman with a bosom (which many men classically are drawn to)support.

Angela, I think got it bad on the show...I disagreed with the judges for getting on her that episode she was paired up with Vincent.. .he clearly didnt want her help and when she didnt have his back on the dress he designed he had some nerve to be mad at her for not backing him on it. As for Olympus Fashion Week...I saw the pics online and I LOVE MICHAELS COLLECTION...totally wearable, totally HOT!!! White material was a great way to go and he made each outfit sleek, different, fashionable...and mostly wearable and thats why he should've won fashion week.

After seeing this weeks show, and actually watching it twice....I can't can't help but agree with the other designers regarding their gut feelings about Jeffrey's work.
I too am a seamtress.Your style just doesn't go through the roof with that kind of improvement in that short of time. I see a studio with help.Granted they had more time to devote themselves to their line but consider this; time to think out your full 12 piece line,
color,fabric, theme and not to mention 12 seperate pieces. That takes alot of prep work because they all have alot riding on this.If this was Laura known for her attention to detail in her quality /tailored work,I doubt this would be an issue. I just have to follow a gut feeling as well.
Personally, I appreciate what each bring to the table so do not consider this an attack on one while favoring another. Just keep it real and most of all making sure it has been fair.

Jeff came finished and ready, thats great, be early that is the way with some people. Look at the old shows, he was the first one up, shaving while Vincent was sleeping. Waking up Micheal,
etc.
Laura has a huge arrogant mouth, and a loud oppinion if she thinks she can make herself look better with putting someone else down.

I'm not even sure whos the best designer, but because Laura is so self important I don't like her stuff.

Come on Jeff, that is a huge compliment that Laura thinks you did not sew your work yourself. Laugh at her, Good Job Jeff.

Someone needs to say this. Jeffrey was totally right about Angela's mom. She is, apparently, an adult child, like her daughter. He is the designer and he was right to say that she shouldn't even be standing right there as he designed. She wanted someone to babysit her and pay her some attention and that's not what his--or anyone else's--role was to be on the show. She needs to grow up on her own time. How embarassing, to have your mother show up and act like a petulant child on national TV. Oh, and the dress he made for her? Not that bad. Not bad at all. What did she expect? That he'd slip something over her head and she'd be the size of Twiggy?

I am really a big fan of Project Runway. My mom and I watch it every week. This year I would have to say that the designers have really taken us for a ride. Jeffrey seems to think that he's the best designer out of the bunch, but he truly is not!!! So far the top Designers for me have been Michael, Laura and Kane in that order. And that's who I expected to be showing at Fashion Week. And for the judges to say that Michael's last design was vulgar, blew me away. Maybe they don't see the design the celebs are wearing on the red-carpet for various award shows. I believe he had the wrong model for that particular dress. Clearly Jeffrey has gotten some help with his line for fashion week. And I totally agree with Laura & Michael in that respect. Even after fitting his models, he didn't have to make any alterations, that is very odd. I guess we'll see what the result of that will be, tonight. I really hope that Michael Win's!!! However, I wish that he would have taken a different route on his collection. And tried not to have so many of the long dresses. All of the designs that were knee-length were always good for him and most of the time always winners. So he should have followed the pattern of his winning designs and the designs that the judges were most pleased with. Best of Luck to all of the Designers though!!!
