on the Bonnie Franklin hairstyle!I agree about Michael C. Of course, Gretchen had something bitchy to say about that as well.

Congrats to Mondo!!!
Gretchen in the top three with that caftan? Yuck.
See ya, Ivy. Don't let the door hit you on the ass! Glad I don't have to hear that grating valley girl voice anymore (although Valerie has one too...just not as bad).

This season reminds me of the Top Chef season that just wrapped-weak contestants overall. I cannot believe that Gretchen was in the top instead of the bottom with that hideous Bohemian flapper dress(not exactly high fashion). I loved how Kors threw salt into Ivy's scab by pointing out that Michael C. was the only one of the bottom 3 that constructed his garment properly. Great to see Ivy gone although Valerie's look was just as bad. Also pleased Mondo won since I like him and do not like Andy. Parson's should look into revoking Ivy's diploma.

Mondo looked very nice in a suit during the photo shoot. I wish he would ditch the goofy costumes. He'd look good in blue jeans, a sweater, and some Doc Martens.

Putting aside the sad drama from last night, I really liked Mondo's outfit, especially the top. Andy has squeaked by yet again. Valerie's farewell to the troops speech was a bit much. Now that Ivy and Valerie are gone, Andy is the only one left that ends all of his sentences with a question. The Michael C. drama looks to heat up again next week.

Ivy has got to go down as the biggest asshole ever to appear on reality TV. She stirs up a shitstorm without any evidence, then plays victim when Michael C. fights back and then goes around bragging about her greatness to the other designers. She is a ****. April is starting to annoy me even more than Gretchen. How many times do we need to see the same black hot pants out of her? Mondo was rather pissy with Heidi. I guess that he needs to have his ass constantly kissed. The two best moments from last night-Heidi making fun of Ivy when she was doing her consultation with Michael C. and Ivy talking about karma and then getting hit in the eye with a sewing needle.

Agree with everything. Yeah, I'm tired of April and her sheer black negligee with granny pants.

Re: Project Runway Season 8 - July 29
Last night helped me reach the conclusion that I've been slowly building to for years. I don't really like Heidi.
Also, I thought this was kind of a bogus challenge, especially for a final six. The goofy challenges like make stuff out of plants, trash or art supplies are fine b/c the designers are still basically required to design to their own aesthetic. I thought this one really limited the designers and was more about conforming to Heidi's design than creating something of their own.

Re: Project Runway Season 8 - July 29
Ivy's shit was beyond ridiculous. I'm so ready for reality shows to put to rest the returning of former contestants. I know it makes for the drama, but most of the time they're just bitter assholes. I so wanted there to be one more clip of Michael C. saying thanks to Ivy for showing up.....and losing....again....and for taking down Christopher with her.

Gretchen is annoying and has a massive ego but Ivy is a horrible human being. Shes loathsome.

I like April. I'm impressed my her, it was Christopher's time to go. I can't belive Mike C is still around.
He has to go next week.
Andy and Mondo for the win, with I think April as the 3rd.

Dissapointed for April.
More so the Costello made it. Esp as he basically did a dress and was 'inspired' by Lady Liberty!

Re: Project Runway Season 8 - July 29
I'm definitely not on the same page as BDB. It was about time that the judges called April out on her Goth granny pants that she sent down the runway week after week. Tim Gunn warned her that she should actually use a color other than black, but she couldn't help herself. Well, there's always Hot Topic. I think that it's BS that Mondo & Michael aren't automatically in the Final 3. Andy and Gretchen should have to fight it out like Jay and Mila did last year. Mondo continues to show how cool he is with his support for Michael C. on the runway. Too bad that there wasn't a camera on Ivy in sequesterville when Michael was declared the winner. Her head would have exploded-"but he cheated, he sabotaged, he can't sew, he's taking my spot, ...".

The judges are officially out of their minds for allowing Gretchen to show her hippie-fest at Fashion Week. We will have to endure one more dose of Ivy next week(reunion show).

Re: Project Runway Season 8 - July 29
I'll probably skip the reunion show because I cannot stand the thought of hearing Ivy and Valerie's valley-girl voices. Nails on a chalk board.
Very emotional episode. I thought Gretchen was actually cool/nice this time around. Perhaps some of the personal things she went through have softened her? Poor Michael C. Sounds like his family life is not so great. At some point, we all have to strike out on our own and be true to ourselves instead of trying to please others. This is his time to do it.
Special guest judge Jessica Simpson?

I'm going to skip it too. I can't stand the thought of how much elation that Ivy must have just had watching Michael's breakdown.

Epic Fucking Meltdown from michael C. I loved it.
