Yes, I think that (on PR) the closest she came to winning was last week. I recall her dress for Nicole Hilton being pleasantly surprising but I don't think she was close to winning that week.

(I'm enjoying the dualing PR-Bones white font.)

I just watched this week's GG. I lurves me some Logan. Seriously.

Dude, even after watching 3 hours off my DVR tonight, I have 25 hours of stuff on there. and none of that is movies. I think I know what I am doing with my Monday off.

night.

Re: PR

Okay, my first question has to be -- what the HELL was Austin Scarlett wearing? He had on more makeup than me And Mike P, I told you that Santino would make it, for the drama factor. I was also surprised that Daniel picked Chloe to go. His lame bit about how she had her own shop was crap.. But, I'm not suprised that Kara didn't make it. However, for once Santino didn't have a clearly shittier outfit. I actually liked it. If it had had less shit on it (which is the basic criticism of any of Santino's designs it could have been nice. It also looked heavy, which is another basic Santino criticism, he doesn't think about the person wearing the outfit. But, I'm looking forward to the bitchy reunion show. I saw tears!

Here is a pretty good hand-eye coordination game.

Okay. That was mean.

Oh, yeah, the PR Reunion show looks like it's going to be fun.

I like Santino for the same reason I liked Jay & Austin and dislike Kara Saun and Chloe. He's creative. He has a point of view and, unlike Kara, can quickly develop an idea. On a show like this, I don't care what makes a woman look good, you can find that shit anywhere. Or elegance and taste. Target sells that now! I want to see someone make something completely new and completely couture. Which is also why Daniel's orchid blouse was the best piece this year, I tend to think. Those three identical dresses up tonight-- this is the best and the brightest? Even Seventeen Prom would hesitate to feature dresses so completely anodyne.

(Speaking of Jay: I thought his earphone accessories for the Fashion Week show last year was a completely OTT feature. Now it looks really great to me. They're exactly what NYC is like these days.)

But Santino can't quickly make the garment (I love that word now!) that he has in his head and have it actually be, you know, finished. Now, I'm sure their deadlines are artificially short, but not by much, wouldn't you think?

Semi-related note: My student haircut at Arrojo Studios was the first time I had ever heard a teacher tell the cutters to go faster. Nick was all, "Time is money! Can't keep the clients waiting!" Of course, it still took like two hours top to bottom, but at least he was conscious of that.

Yeah, the technical skills vary among the contestants and that might be important to one-- certainly it seems like two of the finalists are the most technically skilled.

Here's something I noticed tonight about deadlines: first, they're doing the interviews at the same time they're making the garment. Second, I suspect they started their garment today the same day as the elimination aired last week-- just because Heidi was wearing the same OTT makeup and it wasn't obvious that the four had woken up, merely that they were showering/changing at the beginning of the episode, which they would do right after that particular challenge. Also that Santino and Daniel came into the apartment after the first day and saw Nick's message to them for the first time. In any case, I'm sure Heidi gives the instruction the same day as the judging-- it would be pointless to have her come in the next morning.

One more thing: loved Kors's imitation of Santino. What delicious, delicious irony.
