And…scene. Boy, was this a painful season of PR. We’re not sure we can be convinced to go back for more. But we will keep you spoiler-free in the meantime.
1. Did you look at Heidi and think “Holy Pink!?”
2. Nina’s face at Irina during judging, who didn’t love it?
3. Really, that much black wasn’t a conscious decision? Really? It’s not necessarily wrong, but c’mon.
4. When you saw the black headbands, didn’t you just think Carmen Kass in every single Michael Kors show you’ve ever seen?
5. Were you mad when Tim didn’t reference Balenciaga re: the shoulders?

Okay, so we’re down to the final three…and the always fun Tim Gunn home visits. We just wish we had seen more of the clothes. Nonetheless, away we go with the q’s.
1. So Irina’s got issues with Althea about copying ideas, but was fully okay with using another artist’s renderings for her shirts without permission? Obviously, there were some lawyers involved with the show who were not so okay with this.
2. Where my Blue Devils at? Who knew Carol Hannah would take her inspiration from the Duke Chapel? I must say, it is quite stunning, especially at night.
3. Does anyone else take small pleasure in completely agreeing with Tim in real time while viewing? As in screaming at your TV, “NO!” when Carol Hannah threw that mess of a beaded belt on her dress in his presence.
4. If someone calls one of your pieces “borderline Hillary Clinton,” is that the worst thing you could hear going into Fashion Week?
5. Upon seeing that Irina’s collection was basically all black, didn’t you just flashback to Anna in The September Issue saying to Stefano Pilati, “Stefano, no color?”

Tonight’s ep was such an Adventures in Copyright moment. But I’m still annoyed that yet again, Michael was absent…even though Nina was back in good form. But on to the questions.
1. “How creative are you that you have to steal ideas from people?” —Althea
2. Do you think Althea stole from Irina?
3. Have we heard the nickname “Meana Irina” before? I missed it, if so. Though even when she’s right, she’s totally a mean girl.
4. Didn’t Gordana’s dress outfit look like it was made for the saddest I-banker’s secretary in Wall Street? Oy, the ’80s.
5. Wait, Nick Verreos is a fashion professor now? Sir, I hope you don’t think you’re any kind of Tim Gunn.

1. Nicolas, are you sure you know what “fashion-forward” and “over-the-top” mean because they usually don’t come in the form of white jersey and (very Contempo Casual) gray trousers?
2. Also Nicolas, ever think that choosing a fabric (jersey) that you’ve never worked with before might not be the best idea for a challenge on Project Runway?
3. Logan, what happened to the oversized sweater with pockets situation you described to Tim? That did sound very Mary-Kate and very cute for that matter.
4. Nina, where is that serious tough love? These remaining designers really need a good kick in the pants from you.
5. While I agree that Carol Hannah’s dress was very pretty and that I, like Milla, could live in it, why did no one point out its real lack of a unique point-of-view? You could find that dress many places. And it was very Uli, no?
