Swapnil deserved to go home; what a mess to send down the runway.

And I'm a big fan of Tim Gun. Only he could have to get bleeped and still remain likeable.

I don't know how much I liked Swapnil but I think he was a total victim to his "model". She was impossible. Basically she just wanted what she always wears and was a big baby and would have been a big baby about everything. ITS A MAKEOVER!

As for Ashely and her plus size pressure - screw all of the judges. One they have no idea what looks good or how to design for plus sizes. Zac Poesen's dress for his friend Lena Dunham last year at one of the award shows was awful.
Nina, it should be all one color - FU.
Why do none of the other contest get pressure to design for super skinny stick figures? Just because you usually design for a niche does not mean it should be an issue in the show. The show should be neutral ground as usually all the models are stick figures.

I liked Merline's the best although the facing should have been tacked down? It was a makeover.

Kelly just gave her girl what she always wears in a different fabric. Shrug.

Swapnil produced junk (er, excuse me...junque lol) but I have to agree about his model. I couldn't believe how petulant she was. And crying? Did somebody die?

Swapnil was worthless. He might be able to actually do something if he wouldn't be smoking every five seconds or sleeping or otherwise jacking around. Good riddance.

Ashley started out really strong but she needs to see a psychiatrist. And the outfit she made for that gal was horrible - A terrible print, terrible colors, and adding two layers on top of her hips????? Never.

Kelly had the best design and I usually don't like anything she does but this was pretty good. Edmund's rain coat was pretty cute, especially since the girl was going to use it to ride her bike, though that strip on the bottom was pretty stupid.

Swapnel may have been a lazy designer but his "crew member" had zero feminine wiles and was hard to work with.
They seemed like tough customers to me as well. Most of the hair makeovers showed noticeable improvement. Back in the day I wore a shaved side so I continue to be partial to that look, even though I have not had it myself in decades. I noticed the hair more than the make-up. The only one I really did not like- clothes, hair, make-up etc. was Edmunds client. I think she looked better as herself.

Swapnil's client was the straw. A couple of his designs could have gotten the win and even though he said many times that he just wanted to be safe it seemed to me that he was defeated. Plus, who knows what other issues he may be confronting.

Candice! I think it is good to have a cohesive signature- aka Leanne Marshall, Uli Herzner, among many others- but please something not black AND (p)leather all day, every day. Yesterday's was not good and as I am counting it that's two weeks in a row. In addition I didn't like the one where there was a slash of white over the breasts. They are giving her too many TH (I guess they each must record however many) which is doing her no favors.

There is no one I especially love and no one I love to hate- like Jeffrey.

I think Swapnil is gorgeous without the facial hair and wish him well.

To me, TG does not look well and I hope I am wrong about that.

Swapnil had a difficult client but so did Merlene! This is where a designer learns to shine IMO. Swapnil just folded and didn't work with her at all.

Merlene listened to her client and made something decent.

Swapnil's was a disaster. His client/crew member was difficult for sure, but he also had no intention of listening to her. He seemed to think he was the designer and he knew what was the best look for her. Plus, its like he is the perpetual child/procrastinator. He may be used to doing things effortlessly. And he has seemed totally checked out for the past few episodes. Even in the last episode, he seemed completely uninterested in doing anything.

Merlene - I think she should have won. Her model looked hot, and I personally liked the design.

Kelly- I personally did not like it. She seemed to be done quickly, and was like, I have nothing else to design other than coveralls and a tank. Neither of her pieces seemed particularly fashion to me. I was surprise that she won.

Candice - oh, dear. I knew she would be in the bottom, when she said she was designing a corset and a leather pencil skirt.

Ashley - I don't think hers was horrible. The judges certainly seemed to be showing their bias for a non-traditional sized model.

Edmund - another look that for me was just blah

I am excited for the avant garde look next week!

I had no idea there was a discussion thread of PR here lol.

Anyway I'm really sad that Swapnil went home. He's so hot.
I hope Tim Gunn would use his Tim Gunn rescue next week, even though the chances are slim...

I'm rooting for Kelly at this point. I like her attitude the most and I agreed with her win. That was an awful challenge, most of the looks were ****ing hideous except for hers.

I thought Swapnil was good looking, too. Beautiful eyes! I would wear his designs. I kept thinking that his "regular person" model would have looked good in traditional Indian dress, and that was a route he could have taken.

Ashley now - I think the judges WANT her to win ("see, us fashion types are NOT prejudiced against fat people!" even though of course they are.) She seems like she's losing it to me - just pay attention to the progress of her hair - very artfully arranged in the beginning, fuzzy and flat now. The girl needs to sleep for a week then start over again. But, that's not Project Runway!

I like Kelly too, even though I don't get her retro 80's look. I lived through the 80's - wasn't that enough?

I'm rooting for Edmund. He is very talented, humble, and he's hot too.

Swapnil is good looking, but laziness is a total turn off.
