Make It Work

WHAT'S YOUR SIGN?

This week's PR was all about the zodiac. The designers were surprised with "guests" that happened to be all their former auffed competitors, which they were to be paired up with. Together they were to create an avante gard look based on the zodiac.

To chose the teams, Tim went in order of the surviving designers' astrological signs and then he chose an auffed designer's name out of a bag to pair them up with. They then had to chose one of their zodiac signs to go with. The resulting teams looked like this:

Koto and Kelly - Aquarius
Kenley and Wesley - Aquarius
Joe and Daniel - Aries
Leanne and Emily - Scorpio
Blayne and Stella - Libra
Terri and Keith - Leo
Jarell and Jennifer - Sagitarius
Suede and Jerry - Libra


Terri was completely put out by having to work with Keith and pretty much ignored everything he suggested. Blayen and Stella were in "love your face / I'll hammar your face" heaven together. Kenley was a complete pain in the ass, bossing Wesley all over Mood, even saying that he "takes direction well."


After visiting getting their fabrics, the real work began.During the construction, Leanne and Emily started talking about Kenley's overconfidence, which I understand, but it just made them look like jealous betties. As Tim came around to give his 2 cents, he worried about Jarrell's choice of fabric for the skirt of his outfit. "It's like you took a school marm's old winter coat and tried to make it into a couture dress."

When Tim approached Kenley and Wesley about the ugly-ass mess she was making and said it looked like "Glenda the Good Witch of the North" she got incredibly defensive and said, "She would never be this fabulous!" To which, Tim said, "Don't listen to me" in a really peeved tone. Tim had every reason to be concerned as Kenley's dress looked like two completely different dresses in one, with two entirely different print for the skirt and the top.


Tim then told Terri to listen to Keith because he's innovative and it became clear they just weren't meshing. Tim just looked at them like "you're fucked" and said, "You have to make it work."

The next day the designers were srurpised in the workroom with a note from Heidi that stated they were to show their desgins at a party at the American Space Museum of Natural History that evening and that TWO of the designers would be auffed.

At the party, the designers were in for even more surprises when they were met with past winners and contenders of Project Runway, including Daniel, Carmen, Christian, Jay, etc. . The past designers were there to critique the outfits and give the current designers some pointers. They were also there to cast ballots of who they thought should win the challenge.


When Heidi looked at Kenley's mess of a dress, she asked "Why are the boobs down here?" Kenley huffed and puffed and said, "Look where yours are and where mine are."Kenley told the camera, "If Heidi is talking nonsense, I'm going to step in and set her straight." Uh huh.

She found herself in the bottom four alongside Blayne (who was the second designer in 2 seasons of PR to be described as having a model pooping fabric), Suede, and Terri. Blayne was sent packing. I was sad for him and for me since I started to really warm up to him. I also loved him and Stella as a team, despite the weird getup they made.


Terri deserved her boot in the butt for not listening to anyone. Michael Kors said it best when he said her dress looked like, "Voodoo Princess in Hell." Suede was allowed to stay (yay!) despite his boring, safe design. Kenley was also allowed to stay, which surprised me because she's been so outright bitchy and stubborn. And she made such an atrocity.


The winner of the this challenge? Jarrell. His Leo look took the prize. Very nice outfit, but I thought Joe's should have been the winner. .His and Daniel's interpretation of Aries was stunning.
