Oh, that was fun! I miss Tim and Heidi and Michael and Nina, but hey, Isaac Mizrahi doesn't suck. And the new model/host is lovely.
Also, THANK GOD to who went home.
When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I kind of like that the new host got nervous when she was saying the Project Runway stuff, but otherwise she was fine.

Yeah, I can't help but compare her to Heidi and Iman, which really isn't fair. I just need to get used to her, probably.
It's an hour long, as God intended! So much better. I don't remember all of these designers, but I'm pleased with the runway show so I think I"m going to enjoy the season. Drama that comes from thinking you've ruined your dress, so much better than interpersonal drama! And the results were A-OK with me.

God, I love Iman. She really needs to host more.

Thrive to spite them
Did anyone mention Austin as being someone they were worried about? I missed part of the beginning and I kept hearing different people mentioned as a threat.

The host mentioned he was under a lot of pressure since he won the very first unconventional materials challenge (which was also the very first PR challenge period). I didn't pay a lot of attention to the designers talking about each other, so I'm not sure if he came up in any of those snippets.

Because books.
I was also distracted by Rami looking really good. I do love a big buff bald guy, apparently.

God, I love Iman. She really needs to host more.
She is perfection -- the perfect mix of bitchy and constructively critical (It's ORANGE!)
I was not happy with who went home. I thought that Sweet P's dress was terrible. Don't get me wrong, I didn't like Elisa's outfit, but at least it was made well and had, as Nina says, a point of view. Sweet P sewed a bunch of towels together. It was heavy and bulky and unattractive. She didn't even do anything with the towels, she just sewed them together.

You're not wrong, Vortex, but I'm glad I don't have to listen Elisa's blather for another episode. I have a pretty high tolerance for new-agey hippie-dippy BS, usually, but she was really getting on my nerves.
