Next week, Tim will be talking Finale. Tonight, he answers readers' Runway questions....

Did you just want to smack Keith on the reunion show?! He was so infuriating! -Okan
I wanted to do more than just smack him! And remember that the show was edited. We taped for seven hours!
What did you think that this batch of designers had that the previous seasons didn't, and vice versa? Is there anything or anybody you miss from the other seasons, and why? -Emily
I miss most of the designers from the previous two seasons. They're each special in their own way and they have qualities that are exceptional. As a group, this season's designers brought more fashion industry experience and maturity to the show. Did you notice how rarely we saw a sleeve in seasons one and two? This season we have sleeves, jackets, coats! Amazing!

I just finished watching part one of the finale. I am repulsed by Laura's bizarre fixation with sniping at Jeff. Not to mention, her accusation against him is illogical. She has five children, and she wants to think she had the same amount of time to devote as a father of one? She comes off not as a class act, but as a sourfaced crone.

Alright tim I tired at the fact Laura is trying ot ruin the show for everyone.
I mean Jeffery is like one of the best designers on the show. His final collection looks so amazing, that it's not fair if he is kicked off project runway. He deserves this chance so much, just as the other 3 do as well.
For all we know Michel Knights mother could have helped with the collection in some way. So please dont take him off

Hi Tim! I really think you are exceptionally good in your opinions. They are so fashion forward! Do you sincerely think that Jeffrey got help for his work execution? We agree with what Laura said. He talked like he was always really busy during those 2 months and suddenly he has EVERYTHING done...Anyways...God Bless.

Hi Tim...first and foremost I LOVE U!! hahaha I'm so addicted to Project Runway, but I did not like at all the accusations that Laura made against Jeffrey!! I love Jeffrey's work and I have seen true craftmanship throughout the whole show. I feel that Laura should keep her opinions to herself!! Don't get me wrong, I do like her designs, but she is too judgemental of other designers and she has to stop and think that her designs are not perfect. I really want to see Jeffrey's designs--just from the sneak peak i can tell that they are beautiful and diverse--he really took the extra step to go over and beyond. Its not fair that because of Laura's suspicions (which can't even be proven), Jeffrey is now on the spotlight!! Everyone including Jeffrey deserve a shot at showing their designs.
Sincerely,
Myrna

My husband and I have watched all three seasons and this one has and is the best so far. Comments and the way it was edited and then put together in tonights episode. The best challange was the mother show I would like to see challage again. The only other show that would add credability to the show is DO NOT LET THE JUDGES OR THE DESIGNERS IN ONE CHALLAGE WHO DESIGHED THE CLOTHS AND SEE IF THE JUDGES ARE JUDGEING ON EACH INDIVEDUAL CHALANGE and have them pick the designer in this way there statement tonight would add credabilty to there statements.

I was very disappointed with tonight's episode and thought the issues were handled terribly. Tim permitted Laura to speak with him in private, while Tim approached jeffery in a public setting. I also felt as though all of the designers should undergo the same scrutiny...if you are going to investigate one designer based on a contestant's gut feeling, then you should investigate all of them. I hope your focus is on making sure you don't falsely tarnish someone's reputation in an effort to provide good tv.

Why did you take Laura's accusations so seriously. She is obviously jealous of Jeffrey, doesn't like him and stated so several times. I personally would kick her off the show for being a troublemaker. She admitted she started the "scandal."
It's very unfair to judge someone when you aren't there with them and very hard for her to prove the allegations. Jeffrey had a studio separate from his home where he could go undisturbed. She has 4 very noisy obnoxious boys (very unruly), plus she's pregnant and has a husband who works outside the home, so she has to take care of the clan while she works. Her designs are flat, all look the same and are matronly. I wouldn't think of wearing any of them myself and I'm 60 years old!
If you kick Jeffrey, please kick Laura. She deserves the boot as much as he does IF he cheated. If not, leave them both compete. Designers are very cutthroat as you know.

Well, I am an avid watcher of Project Runway. I have watched every eposide of season three at least two times. I am appauled that Laura accused Jeffrey of cheating and using extra help on sewing and heming. While Laura is incredibly talented herself, I find it selfish of her to accuse Jeffrey of such a thing given his talent level and diligence he put into his designs. If his collection is not aired or presented at Olympis Fashion Week, I will never tune into Project Runway again. I am extremely upset because I appreciate his designs and talent.

I want to talk about tonight's ep! OMG!!! I loved Laura and was really rooting for her b/c I thought that even though Jeff's clothes rock, he was a bit of a brat and, being a mom of 4 I relate to Laura. Well...relatED - not any more! I seriously think that she and Michael were threatened by Jeff's really fabulous-looking collection. The moment I saw his halter dress I knew that he was going to show a spectacular collection and that he was truly the dark horse. If he is kicked off the show I will NEVER watch PR again. If petty behavior is enough to scare the producers into covering their collective behinds so that laura mike and uli can't sue them then I don't think they have the integrity that Tim spoke of in the Reunion show.
I am FURIOUS with Laura. When you make accusations like that against someone you can put doubt in the mind of the entire viewing public - I hope he sues her for liable. You can ruin a person's career with that kind of proof-less accusation. She had NO proof. And if you think about it, they usually had one or two short days to complete an entire garment. When you're that time-pressed you can't rip and resew seams until you get it perfect - you have to go quickly and hope they're straight.
Looking at his collection, the professional space he had to work in, and knowing his talent - I believe in him. I believe you Jeff!! And while I think you were a brat to andrea and her mom, you've won my support by reacting the exact opposite everyone assumed you would. I saw genuine hurt - fear - and bewilderment in your reaction. That and your enormous talent (far and away more than the other 3) have won my eternal support.

I would LOVE to see a season or at least a few shows dedicated with REAL models of SIZE for the designers to design real , and fabulous workable clothing for. Jeff's was a classic realization that most designers just do not have a clue what would look good on a woman size 18 to 20. Mkae a tent dress/moo-moo, put buttons on it the size of dinner plates and make the patterns as gaudy or as busy as you can and then say, "There you go girls, that will be $120.00 bucks!" It's either ridiculously old looking, made out of fabrics I don't let my cat sleep on, and there is virtually no attempt to make the fashions fashionable simply because we do not have a thin frame. THAT would be a huge challenge for the designers. Jeans, slacks, jackets, dresses, coats, evening wear, the whole gamut. Well that is my idea. For the world of women NOT a size 3, I believe we would be GLUED to the sets waiting to see what they would come up with... and then where they could be bought IF they were good!

I have watched all three seasons of Project Runway (great show). And up until now I have kept my opinions to myself. However, after watching Laura claim that Jeffry had outside help on his collection...I'm infuriated!
In my opinion Jeffrey has ten times the range, talent and ability of the other three designers. Of course his stuff looks great...it's HIS BUSINESS!
He threw together those pants for his "Rock & Roll" outfit in less than a day and they looked terrific. He also made the pants for Keith's design and they were fabulous. Why is it so hard for Laura to believe he could make a stunning pair of leather pants?
On Tim's visit to Michael's house, with only a month to go until Fashion Week, Michael only had three outfits completed. It was obvious he'd been dilly-dallying.
Uli had more done, but you could tell she was taking her sweet time to make them. No rush or effort seen there.
Laura, had more done (most of it in an awful shade of green). She had to scrap most of her work and yet she still had time to design 12 outfits for the show.
Jeffrey on the other hand took this quite seriously and really buckled-down. He didn't have to scrap half his work. He knew what he wanted and he worked at making sure the pieces were as close to perfect as he could get them. This is his one big chance after all. He is the ONLY contestant who started working on his look from the begining and followed through.
I believe Laura is so jealous that she can't see straight! If she'd made workable designs the first time around (instead of clothes for the Jolly Green Giantess), she'd have her stuff finished too.
And as long as I'm venting, I might as well give you my opinion of the remaining four designers.
Michael=nice kid, inexperienced, talented...white bread
Uli=should have been the clothing designer for Laugh-In
Laura=cocktail dresses for the breastless
Jeffrey=talent, range, ability and experience...SHOULD WIN!

After tonight's episode (finale PartI) it is clear to me that Jeffrey has an excellent chance of winning the contest and that is besides the point of whether he outsourced or not the execution of his garments. I think however that for the other three contestants winning this season is really "the chance of a lifetime" since they are not as established designers as Jeffrey is. Tim, what is your opinion on this? Can you shed some light without revealing any information that will put you in a compromise?

I loved seeing the everyday woman challenge. We need to see more fashion designed for the average woman. Robert admitted he didn't know how to design for a large woman, that's a sad thing if you ask me. We need to glorify the designers who create things, or alter the originals for those of us blessed with different shapes. I don't feel a designer should be glorified unless they can truly cater to a wider variety of shapes and ages. Most of the purchasing power in this country does not come from size 2 twenty year olds. I say cheers for designing for the rest of us. Dawn

Not to say that Angela did not have a solid creative moment or two, but it was a releif (Huge...) when she was finally OFF the show.

Yeah, the judges were to ignore the shoes...but...would Jeffery just get a stern talking to, points deducted, or...what?

I have learned to be more careful in my judgements from watching you with the designers this year. You keep the show about design and doing your personal best. There are so many things you could have said and didn't. That's what makes PR the best reality show on TV.

Have you not thought of the fallout from the 12 step community?
The time that the fans have invested in the show?
Jeffery was the only designer that I really wanted to see. And to see him breaking down because of Laura's and Michael's jealousy.
I have to say, if he does not show, I can never watch the show again.

Why do models walk down the runway with their legs crossed as if they have to pee. Noone walks like that and it certainly doesn't compliment the garments they're wearing. For season 4 I'd love to see and entire episode using plus-size models.

I'm pretty shocked at the other contestants' and general peanut gallery response to Jeffrey. He's honest and direct. It's ecruciating to watch the suspicion that arouses. The Angela's mom incident seemed clearly a matter of his being fundementally direct by nature, and her not having the slightest idea how to express anything in 5,000 under-the-breath murmurs or less. I'm really disappointed by the indication in this week's preview that he might not be allowed to show in Bryant park. Jeffrey, there are alot of people out here that still believe in your talent and your integrity.

Dearest Tim,
Don't you think Jeffrey bings out the worst in folks? He's such an angry boy! (I was angry myself for quite a long time after getting clean)....however..this boy is brutal with his mouth. He even had passive Laura miffed at him. Although I was surprised at Laura I can forgive the ragging hormones of " How could he do that all by himself himself! I'd ask too since his work was less than good on finishing. But, I thought that you might have said the most natural thing to Laura and the others....and that was that Jeffreys' clothes (most of them) measure maybe 26"...with a few exceptions, where Lauras measure around 36" to 50"...half the lengths of the designs by Jeffrey. SOOOOOO perhaps he SEEEEEEWs only half of their time. Not a Jeffrey fan....but it does seem possible...Don't you think?

Dear Tim:
How come you allowed Laura to talk to you privately and when you approached Jeffrey about Laura's accusations you questioned him in front of the others. I thought that was the first time that I saw you drop the ball. Jeffrey should have been given the same kindness and professionalism as you afforded Laura. As a manager, I am shocked that you didn't investigate the accusation before placing so much stress on Jeffrey. I think Laura is the typical troublemaker in the workforce who is jealous of others and is mean spirited --just with a smile. She truly knows how to murder people with her mouth. She is a disgrace to the show. Put a zipper in her dresses and send her home to care for the babies she seems to have no trouble making but appears to have little time for passion to nuture and care for them. Teach her about being other centered instead of being so self centered. She is truly the only mistake on all three seasons. Jeffrey is different in appearance but is a talented gentleman along with Uli and Michael. Go home Laura! Tim don't let her smile loose your great sense of mentoring and talent for making this show such a success.

Since many viewers are so keen on hating Jeff, I feel that a synthesis of the two best designers is order. If we could only cross pollinate Jeff's creative forces with Laura's, we would have the smartest fashion designer of Project Runway.

I am sick at the prospect of Jeffery being disqualified!
And I am incredibly dissapointed in Laura. She saw your reaction to Jeffery's work and felt her prospects of winning, slipping away. Then and only then, does she start in with the " I don't think so's " Then airing those thoughts to you before confonting Jeffery, with her suspicions. In my eyes, her actions only fueled my suspicions of her motives. Sabotage I say!
I don't understand why she finds it so difficult to believe Jeffery did all the work himself. As a fellow artist, I am keenly aware of how the creative proccess works. How can she know that he didn't stay up agonizing over every detail of his masterpieces for hours, days & weeks on end. Grabbing the creativity while it flowed fresh. He was in the familiar surroundings of his own studio, free to do anything he wished and he didn't have 5 children running around while he was trying to work. Has she never heard of the concept of " overachiever " or
" perfectionist " Jeffery has a lot to prove to himself and the world. I just can't see him blowing it all away, by not following the guidelines & rules for the show. Especially after Kieths disqualification for a few " How To " books.
And what about Karasan and the shoes? She was still allowed to continue. And I feel that was far worse than a few pleats.
I truly hope I am jumping the GUN here. I will be waitng with baited breath for next weeks episode.

Hi Tim & Bravo!
Success for getting a watcher to use the internet! congrats! I just think it is awful to have Jeffrey be in a position where he is being attacked and investigated. I think his clothing is the first that is REMOTELY comparable to the artistry of both Jay and Kerasan (spelling?) of the first season. I find it sad that his work is not appreciated for the quality it is--as many of the last designers have been both lackluster in their innovation and grace in execution. I would never have imagined that either Jay or Kerasan's work would have been questioned and the finess of their work exceeded Jeffrey's in both complexity and detail--Jay's quilted work alone and Kerasan's stitching. Anyways, I guess I look forward to what will happen next. Thanks for the chance to write!

i hope Jerffery is there next week and he wins. The reason he didn't mouth off or act ugly is maybe she doesn't know him as well as she thought. I'm disapointed in Uli and Michael, because his sewing was better at home as his own pace as comparied getting it done quickly .

Ok so I really doubt Jeffery had anyone help him with his sewing.

This is not a surprising accusation coming from Laura, but MIchelle I was shocked! So I guess if Jeffery is not on the second part of the show we know that Lauras plan was succesful. But remember Laura what goes around comes around, its called karma.

This is regarding TONIGHT's show where Laura and the others question Jeffery and talk to Tim before discussing this with Jeffery.
First of all I am tremendously saddened for Jeffery. I think he is everybody's bad boy and he really is not. The one thing over this season and last (I didn't see season 1), is that the home visits by Tim really give a person incite into the people that these designers are. Jeffery does NOT deserve this and I hope and pray that next week Jeffery is NOT sent home. I think this is all awful. I believe in Jeffery. He is not my favorite of the four in terms of design, but I see a very protected and armored heart in there and I hate seeing him abused (and yes I see it that way).
Laura .... I think your pregnancy is making you grumpy. I know how it is ... I haven't done it as many times as you, but anyone who has been there remembers. Lighten up on the others, concentrate on yourself and leave the others alone. I think you should have spoken with Jeffery first and then if you still felt you had to do it, then you should have gone to Tim, but you did it backwards and it reflects badly on you.

Tim, you do an amazing job in, what must be, a very challenging position. I'm not sure if this is the proper forum to raise questions, but here goes. What's your take on Robert Best's expulsion from the show? I'm not a designer and I'm sure, besides being a very subjective medium, there are many factors the lay person doesn't understand about the judging process. However, it seemed both Michael and Nina were extremely cool to him throughout his run on the show. He joked on the reunion show about his boring designs, yet when he tried to be innovative he was shot down (I refer to the Jackie O. design challenge). As a lay person, his garments seemed to be more complex and better constructed than some of the others products. What's the scoop? Did the producers and behind the scenes activity play a big part in his demise? I noticed they also changed the final comments he shared at the end of the episode when he was out. I'm guessing this may have been to reduce the fallout from him getting the boot. I'd be very interested to read your take. Thanks.

I could turn around and accuse Laura off not sewing all her garments because she was taking care of 5 kids and couldn't possibly get all the work done she had accomplished. Would you go and investigate her work? It was wrong of Laura to gossip about him to the others, especially when she had no evidence! Laura should have had some kind of penalty for what she started.

I realize there's nothing you can do now, but please remember this for future shows. Project Runway contestents have the potential to gang up on certain people, if they're manipulative enough. Plesae don't let those people triumph in the future.

Prior to this moment, I have never been motivated to blog, or to log on to the website of any television show (including Project Runway). After seeing tonight's show and the preview for next week's finale, however, I simply couldn't help myself. Although everyone seems to love to hate Jeffrey (he's become the "Santino" of last season), Jeffrey is clearly the most creative person of the final four, and I think it will be an atrocity if he is not allowed to show his collection during Olympus Fashion week due to Laura's accusations. Clips from the finale show Jeffrey crying, if these are not tears of joy for being exonerated, I don't what I will do? Boycott a show, that as a fellow creative, I had found to be a fascinating and encouraging glimpse into the artist's/designer's process? Last season, I watched as the judges, heaping insult upon insult upon the "bad boy" Santino, literaly beat him down. It was patently obvious that this was a man who was not only a talented designer, but a true creative, who had SO much more to give. (In contrast to the winner Chloe, who I felt was capable of little else than what we have seen). Ironically, the judges seemed surprised at Santino's watered down collection, even though they themselves had airmed the fire hose to douse Santino's creative flame. In the end, I had to agree that, as much as I empathized with Santino's error in trying to the judges, his Fashion Week show was disappointing nevertheless. From the glimpses I have seen of Jeffrey's collection, on the other hand, this does not seem to be the case. As a matter of fact, he seems to have outdone himself. I don't if what Laura's attempted sabotage in tonight's episode stems from jealousy, pregnant hormones, or her obvious dislike of Jeffrey, but whatever the motivation, it was a terrible thing to do. Laura, undisputedly, is a very tasteful woman who makes beautiful, well made clothes, but she is a "one note," lackiing the kind of creativity that is evident in Jeffrey. Not only would ejecting Jeffrey be an eggegious and shameful error in my mind, but such action would leave the indelible impression that Project Runway is championing mediocrity, not creativity.

I guess I don't understand the final four. Uli and Laura make the same garments over and over. When they do something different it is so hideous that they face elimination. I believe that Jeffery is talented, but should not have been rewarded for his awful behavior. The mom challenge should have had him eliminated. Sure his treatment of Angela's mother made for good tv, but omg can you make your clients cry? Finally Michael. He has been my favorite since the beginning. He has stumbled from time to time, but I think any one of his designs would have been fabulous given a few extra minutes. I look forward to the finale!

I can only imagine how difficult the reunion was with Keith there. It must have been especially hard, because I know you believed so much in his designs. The emotion in your voice when you sat down with him before he left was unmistakeable. To have him come back and accuse PR of being anything less than honest must have been excrutiating. Yet, even under that pressure you handled with your usual grace, patience, and class. (Yes people I realize we just saw an edited portion).

1. How could you put any merit behind Laura's accusations toward Jeffrey. It is obvious that she is jealous because she was talking about him the whole show and making nit picky comments about him. He had his own workspace outside of the home, and he doesn't have 5 sons to take care of so he would obviously have more time. He also could have picked easier fabrics to work with and less sparkles, sequins, and beads than the others. You should have at least required her to offer some sort of proof besides "his work is TOO GOOD". Since when does having work that is outstanding become a bad thing.
and 2. If you are going to look into Jeffrey cheating you should also look into the rest of the contestants.

Tim,
Do you honestly think that Laura has a valid point about Jeffery's sewing abilities or is she just trying to get rid of a threat? I am no expert on sewing, but in two months time I would think he would be able to finish a collection if he worked on it as diligently as he says he has. His outfits, from what I saw on the pre-finale show, are not as complex and intricate as the things Laura makes. She adds cutesy details to add glamour to what I have decided to call Old Hollywood style. I understand there is no love lost between these two designers. Their opinions of each other are clearly stated on the previous episodes. Is this just a case of jealousy or a legitimate complaint?

Regarding tonight's episode (Part 1-the Season Finale). I understood Laura's concern about whether Jeffrey had actually completed all of the execution of his designs himself. I don't believe she was acting in any spirit of malice or being too competitive. I believe she was simply noticing a potential problem that if true, would not be appropriate for the show and was trying to make things right by notifying Tim, who she probably knew in turn would bring it to the attention of the Producers.
It's a large assumption to make, but the other designers seemed to agree and they all certainly have enough experience to know. And the fact that Tim and the Producers took it so seriously was gratifying, and confirmed to me that it was a good call for Laura to bring that up officially.
My confusion is, by the previews for next week's episode (Season Finale-Part 2!), they make it look like Jeffrey is told he cannot participate in the Olympus Fashion Week by the fact that Tim used the word "unfortunately", and they show him breaking down and crying.
Jeffrey's behavior previous to that was odd, and it sounds like they decided he had broken some rules and required disqualification. But--having just watched the video on the website tonight, with Tim showing behind the scenes at Bryant Park; towards the end you clearly see 3 of the designers including Jeffrey. And his clothes are hanging in plain view of the camera, meaning he did participate in the final runway show.
This is confusing to me. I am wondering if he was indeed disqualified for very serious reasons as initiated by Laura, and he was shown at Fashion Week as a "decoy" in order not to ruin the episodes after the show took place in real life? Or did he really show officially and not get into trouble?
Just throwing these thoughts out there--this is my very first time posting here, but I have been reading Tim's blogs and catching up to tonight's episode. I find them very interesting, well written, and concise. Bravo!

Tim
We are going to miss all of you on Wednesday nights. Do you think PR will be back for a 4th season???? It truly is a great show.
We have watched to previews for the next session to be shown, Oct 18th and didn's see Jeffrey in the clip. Where is he?
We know there was some question about his 12 items as to whether he did them or not. How could anyone think otherwise. He has a very good work shop and is truly committed to this profession.
Yes it was said Jeffrey worked on both lines -- PR's and his own. But remember he is a Fashion Director in his company. His own line would have been completed by his staff and HE worked on the PR line. Just because Laura can only design one thing does not mean that Jeffrey is inferior to her. Jeffrey should have won more than two projects during the season. I am thinking of the recycling project. The last one with the red, white and blue dress was just beautiful. It appeared to be well made too.
As for the other two designers and Laura -- My are you the jealous ones. It is even occur to anyone of you that Jeffrey worked many many hours per day to get ready for the fashion day???
I remember reading, however, in the newspaper that Jeffrey's line was well received. So I hope he did make it to PR's fashion week.
Thank you for a great season and we enjoy you Tim and your associates. Please come back for a 4th season.

Tim, Being one of the older Project Runnway viewers. I was raised by a seamtress and remember when sewing was so important. Mothers made much of the clothing worn by their daughters. This season bought those thoughts back to me. And seeing the support many in this group got from their families. There's hope that other young people will think it is cool to make and wear something they make themselves. This will help them to be better indiviuals and not just follow the crowd.

Do you really believe that Jeffery had help with his finial collection? Jeffery works very hard and if you work for 2 months start yeah I could see him finishing it before the show. I think it was smart of him to finish before coming back to New York, last season was crazy with them trying to finish there designs and make the extra outfit in time. Jeffery was just being prepared in case something like that happened again. I think that Laura is just jealous. I don't think it's fear if he gets kicked of the show he's my favorite designer and unless you can prove he had help he shouldn't be eliminated.

Addition to previous posting:
I just watched the Preview video for next week's episode for the runway shows at Bryant Park, and it's clear that only the 3 Designers are there. (Laura, Uli and Michael). They all walk in together, check out the place together, they are the only ones shown etc.
I guess I answered my own previous question watching that video- Jeffrey is nowhere to be seen and I guess that means he wasn't allowed to officially show at Olympus Fashion Week. He must have been the "Decoy" previously so as not to ruin these future episodes.
Not so confused now thanks!

I don't know why no comments are showing up yet for last night's ep. I was CERTAIN it would quickly flooded with people discussing the development of Laura's accusation.
I was deeply saddened by her choice to publicly accuse Jeff of cheating without any proof at all. It is one thing to be proven a liar and cheat (see: keith), but no one had proof that Jeff had not sewn his garments himself. I'm troubled by the promo for next week's episode b/c they really made it look like he doesn't get to show at fashion week (and he DID admit to having pleating done on two garments - which may be the ax that falls on him).
Jeff has a pretty good legal recourse if he's undermined by Laura's accusation. That kind of thing can put doubt in the mind of the entire viewing public - it could damage his existing business. I'm of the opinion that Laura and Michael saw his collection and realized he'd outdone them. Laura can only do evening wear and Tim was pretty clear that Michael's collection need work. I suspect them of doing this petty underhanded thing in order to eliminate the superior competetor.
And to think I thought Laura had integrity to go with her candor. I think Mike saw his oportunity to get rid of Jeff and jumped on the bandwagon. It is true, Jeff was a brat. He probably still is a bit of a brat. But his reaction to the accusation was exactly the oposite of what everyone expected. I saw genuine sadness, bewilderment, fear. He looked like someone who'd just been betrayed by a friend. How sad. How ruthless.

So season 3 is alsmost finished and many of these folks still haven't learned how to behave. Laura is a bitch and a "one note" as Tim likes to say. Isn't it bad enough we had to see her flat chest all season? Did we have to see a plaster cast of her saggy boobies last night too? Oh, and by the way, people who are broke and can't afford a career change don't have gigantic duplexes in the heart of NYC, carry the whole line of Louis vitton trunks and have a state of the art kitchen. and she thinks Vincent is delusional!!!
I haven't given up on project runway yet but maybe next season they will cast a better class of people. this cast could sew well and didn't have too much trouble using the machines but their outfits, though well made, were boring and predictable. I would have given my right arm to have seen a poorly executed design but an exciting one non-the-less.

My question, Tim, is this: "How can the producers of the show possibly PROVE that any of the designers didn't get help on the execution of their designs for the final collections?"
Last night I was so furious after watching the first part of the finale! My favorite designer, Jeffrey, was really screwed over by Laura and Michael (Uli was nice though). As you know, they decided that there was no way (in their minds) that Jeffrey sewed everything in his collection by himself and you suggested that an "investigation" be conducted. In my humble opinion, they were afraid Jeffrey would win and they couldn't handle competition. Well, it looks like he's getting kicked off next week based on the image of him crying in the preview. MAN!!! I was so pissed off! Jeffrey is the only one on the show I actually LIKE and would want to hang out with - as well as being a great designer. He's cool...and most of his clothes are too. And now he's going to get screwed over because they think, maybe..just maybe... he didn't sew all his own clothes in the 2 months he was home making his collection. Well, you know what? If that is actually a fact...WHO CARES?!!?!?!?? What professional designer sews his own clothes anyway???? Does Armani? Hell no! They are all sewn by someone else. It doesn't really matter- they are HIS designs. It's all about the designing. And, when you get right down to it....if the production hadn't wanted the designers to get any help, they should have locked them up for 2 months until they produced the collection. The whole thing stinks and has made me fuirous. How can they possibly PROVE that the OTHERS didn't get help?!?!? They can't! It's impossible!! I will not watch the show again once this season is over. It's just wrong, wrong, wrong. They should just take his word for it and leave it at that. I just wanted to get that off my chest and see if you can come up with a response that makes any sense. (Not that anyone will care - it's all about getting ratings)

Tim,
Idea for a show next year. When my mother was in high school they were very poor. Would get only one newly purchased outfit per year. So she and her sisters would purchase used clothing and make it into something fashionable. This was in the 50s and she grew up as a product of depression/WW II parents. Maybe some kind of a challenge like that. Send the designers to a thrift store and have them make something totally different. My mom taught sewing out of our house for years. It infuriates her that none of her daughters sew. I just don't have the patience, time or energy - I work full time, teach a university class and am almost ready to graduate with my MS in Higher Education Administration and have a 28 year old autistic son who lives with me. How do I find time to watch your show? It is my favorite and I just love you - you make the show. So looking forward to next season already. (hope Michael wins - just love his take of clothing on a woman's body). Making my life work -- deb casey

After watching last nights show, I also agree that it is virtually impossible for Jeffrey to have absolutely nothing left in prep for Fashion Week.
How can you work on your own line, (In his warehouse), and still be able to do his line for fashion week. I am a multi-tasker but come on now. Funny you did not see one of Jeffrey’s workers in that massive location while Tim visited him. Wonder if the receipts matched up…Probably not!
Perhaps camera installation in the final designer’s workspaces is something to consider. Maybe the designers should no longer be permitted to go home to create their fashion week designs.
I am personally shocked and amused by the dishonesty and deceit. When you have brilliant, creative people with their adrenalin flowing constantly, questions will be asked, especially if something does not smell right.
Bravo, to Laura for speaking up...Bravo to Michael for voicing his thoughts as well.
Speaking of Laura and Michael, will this be the first year for a tie? I think so!!!! :)

I would have to agree with Barbara NJ. Laura is just jealous, just because your line may not have been completed at home doesn't mean that someone else couldn't have. The one thing that Jeffery has that the other don't is drive, he wants this and it shows. If I was given a month, I think I would work night and day to make the best garments ever. If he does professional work for stars, why would you expect this from him. I love an honest person and that he is (it should be more honesty in the world). He has a purpose to succeed, his son. Wouldn't you use all of your time wisely with so much on the line? I also love Michael, his sportswear is awesome. He knows how a woman thinks and how she wants her clothes to hang on her body, kudos to you. Uli is also a sweetheart but stays basically on the same page just on a different day. She is quite talented. If Laura would just concentrate on doing those beautiful dresses then I think she will learn that someone will help her get her own business started without winning the show, they are (the dresses) top notch. Therefore, stop hating on Jeffery and concentrate on your own designs. Like the old saying goes what is done in the dark always come to light. Let karma do its work and you do yours.

1. Keith needs to get over himself. 2. All you people griping about Laura need a reality check--the producers wouldn't be showing us Jeffrey sitting around, Jeffrey fumbling with his receipts, if they weren't setting us up for something. Those people worked together every day and they know what each other is capable of, so I believe they have reasons for their suspiscions. Jeffrey is definitely talented, but if he cheated, he needs to be disqualified, which means the rest of you kids can get a grip. I love Laura's ability to call people out--it's been called for every single time she's done it.

I cannot stand Laura's attitude toward her competition. She is a rich bitch who should be home taking care of her wild kids. I believe she feels she can win over Uli and Michael and is threatened by Jeffrey and that is why she doesn't like him. If you will remember, she had it out for him before he even walked into the hotel room. She is mean and is "that person" we all hate to work with because we are all wondering when she is going to stab "us" in the back! How could you allow her privacy to speak and then confront Jeffrey in front of the others? That is unprofessional to say the least. I think you should watch out for Laura as she is a backstabbing bitch who needs to be sent home to teach her children that normal people do not give turtle poop to anyone much less a guest in their home! I vote for Uli and Michael as I feel they have something to offer the industry and that they have a heart besides the fact that they have played the rules and not put others down to try and make themselves look better. Anyone who puts others down as Laura does is only trying to make herself look better and doesn't have the confidence it takes to make it. I think she should have been auf'd a long time ago!!!

HI Tim,
I feel that Laura was correct in being suspicious if Jeffery being able to finish his designs so throughly. Extremely suspect for him to have no work to do for 2 days while the others hemmed and sewed clasps and did finishing work. I have watched all 3 seasons and the designers always had a lot of details to finish in the end. Also I felt he looked and acted guilty and peculiar while all the others were working and he was not. Also if people would recall his sewing and finishing work were not fantastic during the season. I believe he had help on sewing those pieces.
I am not saying I am a big fan of Laura. I do think her designs have a place, but they are designs for older women with the big bucks not the youthful every day looking gal. I wouldn't call her fashion forward. She did seem to have it in for Jeffery from the begining of their return. However, I still believe he did not execute all the work on his designs....
I think you are great Tim. Wishing you all the best. I look forward to season 4 !
PS. I am feeling Uli is going to win, although I believe Michael is the best designer. Laura's designs are a bit dated looking and Jeffery is too rock star. Michael and Uli made the most wearable designs.

I also don't believe he cheated; I was amazed at his level of craftsmanship on the jet-setter challenge and it's not hard for me to believe that he was able to step up that level given the added time factor. As for who wins for the season, I doubt it's Uli. Her dresses are nice, but are all the SAME SAME SAME. Ditto for Laura. My money is on Michael or Jeffrey.

I had a thought last night watching Part 1 of the finale. I am a plus size woman and have been for quite some time. Why not do an entire season with plus size designers? The designers this year has such a difficult time during the Everyday Woman challenge with the plus size women, and it made me think where are all the plus size designers out there? Wouldn't it be great to see normal sized models who don't faint after standing up for 20 minutes? And in lieu of the statements being made about not allowing skinny models in runway shows in certain countries, why not follow suit?

Coming from a long line of seamstresses, my sister and I have remarked how ill prepared some of the designers have been for the Olympus show. Two months is certainly sufficient time to complete your line. For a part-timer or hobbyist, it would be much more difficult. I am hoping, for Jeffrey's sake, that he did do the work. On many of the challenges, Jeffrey was much further along and much of the time, finished first. I believe he is OCD like many artists and just got the job done. You're showing at Olympus fashion week for heaven's sake! I find it remarkable that some show up NOT finished. I will be truly disappointed not to see Jeffrey's line. Laura's remind me of the couture magazines circa 1988. Perhaps she could work as a costume designer if they do a remake of Dynasty.

Sad to be accused without proof.....Jeffrey's work is always new, fresh, innovative, and totally fashion forward. I truly believe he has used the time he was given for designing and sewing his final runway collection to his advantage and I also think that envy and jealousy on Laura's part is as predictable as her designs are....same old, same old, too matronly, very stuffy, and not trendy or fresh. She is dealing with her sixth pregnancy, five active boys and a husband...no wonder she hasn't finished her details. On the other hand, Jeffrey has ONE child, and a wife to oversee childcare and the household duties which frees him up to put more time and work into his designs. I hope the Producers see this PLOY of Laura's for what it looks like to me.....SOUR GRAPES.

If I was going after a $100,000 prize, I think I would make sure that my clothing line was complete and fully tailored before I ever came back to New York. Why is it such a problem that that there is stitching on the pockets of the leather jeans? I wouldn't have ever thought there is something wrong that needed investigation.
However, the question has been asked and quite frankly Project Runway puts a lot of faith in their contestants by letting them go on their own for a few months.
Did I hear Jeffrey say last night that an outside source did the pleating of one of the garments. That has to be as Wrong as Keith and his fashion books. It will be interesting to see the answer to the Jeffrey question next week.

Maybe some of the outfits were not even his design. He should be kicked out!
