Christopher- Probably deserved to win. It was my favourite design I think, although the idea of the structure in the plastic is something I've seen before. In fact it looks almost exactly like a poorer version of Leah da Gloria from Project Runway Australia season 4's winning unconventional materials design. The scissors were really cool, but I hated the rainbow neckpiece, and frankly bullying as an inspiration point is cliched and clearly a desparate attempt to get sympathy. It was a
Elena-Another very good effort. In fact, a better dress than Christopher's in my opinion. But the various commenters who've said she's too repetitive have a point. Certainly I disagree completely that she should have been sent home, partly because it's not SO much as to be a huge issue. Personally I feel like if you put all four of her looks thus far down a runway together they'd be a pretty good mini-collection, and not too repetitive. But I did bump her down to second because some of it I have seen before and I'm concerned that this may be all she has to offer.
Viktor- It's OK. It looks like school supplies, and it's a bit muppet-y. I also hate the pins that look like the dress is pinned to her. Still, it's a cute dress, and 3rd is where I put it.
Irina- I didn't respond to this, because the colours, textures and silhouette are all kinda the opposite of my taste. But I saw it as what it was, a good design, but not very modern or fresh. It had pretty ingenious use of materials, and this was the only one that I thought really didn't look like it came from a school. But at some point she should have stepped back and realised it was like a little girl's princess fantasy dress. One of the better entries for sheer thoughtfulness and good construction.
Korto- I'm not mad, just disappointed. The skirt is great. The design of the top is retty good, but let down by awful execution. I really hate the clips, although I kinda get what she was going for. It's just OK, just about safe
Jeffrey-I actually don't hate this. Jeffrey seems to have me "on side" because I didn't hate his avante-garde bug design either. Well, not from the front. In that case and again here, I appreciate that he tried to do something interesting, and it kinda worked. I think if her ass hadn't been out, it could have been safe, and I wouldn't have sent him home even with that...unfortunate detail.
Seth-Aaron- He could have gone home for this. It just looks like a joke. It's out-there, but not in a cool avant-garde way, in a "people would point and laugh" way. I hate everything about this really, but especially the kickball on her head, which looks like...a kickball on her head. Buck up, S-AHD.
Mychael- He could have gone home for this. It fell apart, and so did he. The only semi-good idea is the rope bustier, which I've seen before, done better, and didn't like it much then. The shades of purple he used were pretty, but the red ruined it. This is a crappy, flimsy paper dress that he could have left for, with no complaint from me.
