Laura: No one complains Vera Wang is limited in scope.
Uli: Probably the best combination of marketable, wearable and innovative of the bunch.
Jeffrey: Maybe it's something more in person, but on TV is seemed not that wearable and not exciting enough to make up for that fact. I don't get it. But then I like my deconstruction to be a "remembrance of a lost world" sort of thing as opposed to a "post apocalypse" sort of thing (which is also why Santino didn't really do it for me.

Date: 2006-10-19 02:12 pm (UTC)I was disappointed by Laura-the collection bored me-and some of those long lace dresses with the big shoulders made the model's look like linebackers. Her detail is so so so beautiful, but the A-line construction and over the top details (the green felt belt, the poofy gauze/tulle around the one model's neck) didn't do it for me. I really respect her work ethic a lot.
Michael, oh Mike, WHAT HAPPENED? Those chicks in the middle looked like the girls from those "Wanta Fanta?" commercials!! Poor kid. As Kali and D said last night, he just chokes a lot. Needs to grow.
Jeffrey. Too Halloween for me. I hated the lumpiness of everything-so unflattering. Meh. I liked/didn't like his collection. From far away I liked most of it, then up close I really didn't.
I can't help but be pulled in by the Meth-head with Mohawk girlfriend and kid makes good angle-Ian said they gave it to him because he was the most likely to hang himself if he lost!
As for Laura's dogging of Jeffrey, I think going to Tim is fine, he is the mediator after all. She doesn't owe Jeffrey any confrontation. But-pulling in the other designers before saying anything to Tim really cheapened her argument. Would've been classier for her to say something to Tim, then approach Jeffrey quietly and say, "Listen, your receipts were a mess and there's a LOT of finish on this stuff. I mentioned it to Tim so get your receipts together, okay? You may think I'm a bitch but I want this to be a fair game, right?" Would've made her look a lot better. Ah well.
Also, VERY pissed Jeffrey went over budget. Over $200?? You don't keep track of things? You're playing shady, dude.
Endgame: They have taken our PR and made it a cheap reality show. I miss seeing them make clothes! The drama of making a garment in 24 hours is what is most interesting about the whole thing, and it's just dying out. Sad day in Gunnville, for sure.
