I'm hoping that now that he has the win and has upheld the House of Valentino and the House of Wang they can auf him w/o compunction.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Tim's Take was interesting this week. He didn't think Ricky should've won either. Actually, it seems like he didn't even really like Ricky's look. And he thought Christian's look was fierce. I love being on Tim's side.

Huh. Project Rungay said a couple of months ago that they'd seen a pre-season interview with Tim in which he said that there'd be one episode in particular that would piss the viewers off -- that they'd see what they, and he, knew to be a losing design that would then go on to win, and that when the loser-winner designer got his win he said (but not on camera), "No one's more surprised than I am." I wonder if he was talking about this, or if there's something truly awful coming up.

I'm hoping it's this - apparently they did some crazy editing to get that "it's stunning" remark from him.

Still, I'm willing to bet he went too far for the Levis lady.

Also, they had planned to sell the item limited edition. Christian's outfit would not have sold. If you weren't a size 2, that would not have looked good on you at ALL.

Rami may be something of an ass but Baby Rami??? One of the cutest things ever!

Ricky's dress was BOR-ING. Not as much of a mess as the rest of his stuff but nothing to write home about at all. And really kind of tacky.

Baby Rami was adorable.

I noticed when they were leaving for somewhere en masse that Rami and Sweet P were walking together and he had his arm around her shoulders - so clearly they are friends despite the mess of a team they made.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

The only reason I can see Ricky's dress as winning is that it would be easier to mass produce than the other top condenders. Still wrong - if that was a consideration, it should have been emphasized up front.

Absolutely. Didn't they do that for a challenge in Season 1? The Banana Republic one?

And how did they not know he was gay from that pre teen pic? No straight boy poses like that.
