Project Runway Recap: Elementary School
Highlights:
Mila, who cannot go an episode without the judges massaging or torturing her ass, turns in a gray, "earthy," asymmetrical vest with a sleek pant and long-sleeve gray tee. It's all perfectly made, but it's a signature Project Runway snoozefest too. Still, it's stupid that she landed in the bottom three. We all know Mila's going far, if she can just focus her owl stare on the frisky gay worm that is Bryant Park.
Ben made the damn pantsuit with jockstrap seams, because sometimes you have an absinthe dream where that's fabulous. It also doesn't resemble water in any way.
Seth Aaron crafts a remarkable leathery jacket with grommets and ruffles. It's very Jillian Lewis. And impeccably constructed. Send that to your favorite equestrian goth for their eighth birthday.
Jonathan's dreamy, airy, beige-and-textured dress has the big shoulder puff of a Chris March design, but there's a nice gradation of breezy colors occurring too. Very chic.
Amy has done an incredible thing. Since there wasn't enough "fire" in her design, she turned the bust of her dress into a basket and filled it with mammoth hair extensions. Ahem: WHAT. Bottom two for sure. Heidi neighs disapprovingly.
Maya conceived a gray mini dress with ruffles, except that Odysseus is the biggest ruffle and Penelope and the Fates are the smaller ones. Or something? It's fine.
In a triumph for Jonathan, who looks like a jolly hybrid of Dilbert and Dogbert, he wins the challenge! The bottom two are Amy and Ben, and since Ben has already given us an emotional phone call home, it seems right to shoot him. He is OUT. Stay tuned for my interview with him, unless all these "elements" have broken your materialistic spirit. Mine's half in the Kraken's mouth, to be honest.

I thought it was hilarious that Mila got the tsk tsk for doing the same kind of ensemble that Michael Kors does every NY Fall Fashion Week. I was thinking, "Who are we kidding? Michael's, stuff is exactly this boring. Just a lot more expensive." Ha! They called it a track suit! Have they been to New Jersey? Hell, just get some high powered binoculars and look over the Hudson.
LOVED that tornado-looking thing ...NOT!! How did that not make it in the worst?
I love how Mila's always out on the runway, like it's scintillating to watch her reactions. An eyebrow moved!
LOUIS VIRTEL always reviews with wit and honesty. I love his writing.
I would hate to have to create a dress in 24 hours. It takes alot of skill. A Pyromaniac will start a fire; but A burnt down house is what happens AFTER the fire. Anthony's Dress is going to make a great Rag to mop up the Hot mess.
I like Mila's Bangs & Bob; but she is my least favorite designer on the show. She seems locked into color blocking. Her Gray Pantsuit was a flashback to Wall Street... Just before the crash..
I could relate to Poor Ben missing his boyfriend/Husband; But His Gay jockstrap Pants should have been left on the locker room floor.- He got cut.
Amy is really clever but over thinks Everything. Her "Hair Ball" gown Missed the extensions mark by a mile. It would have been considered Tacky if it was on Ru Paul's Drag Race.
Jonathan's Air dress won. I guess When you don't Offend anyone you get to win. Hidie is easily offended especially if the boobs don't fit in the dress.
I love Project-Runway even when its Bad its Good..
