Project Runway - Episode 5

"Episode 4: Challenge: Create an outfit for Brooke Sheild's character (a bohemian-esque woman, now married to a musician and running her own studio company) to wear on her television show, Lipstick Jungle. Something that can be worn at the office and worn for a night on the town with her girlfriends."

This was a partner challenge, which is always wildly entertaining because there's all sorts of personalities on this show. They all pitched a design, 6 of them were chosen, and then those 6 people chose partners with whom to work. Personally, I would have liked to have seen a couple of the other pitched designs but I guess that's really a moot point.

The Official Winner

Designer: Keith, worked with Kenley
I was rooting for this one to win too. I love the colors, it's classy enough for the office but still fun and flirty for a night out. Keith's a serious tool and I hate that we'll have to listen to his "I'm the awesomest designer ever" talk for another week but I do think that with the exception of his wind machine-created dress, he's done pretty well so far.

The Official Loser

Designer: Kelli, worked with Daniel
I agree that this one was the worst of the designs and a bit on the trashy side but I think Daniel should have gone home, not Kelli. So far, Kelli's put out some fantastic designs and Daniel's been...well...eh. He claims to be all about having this impeccable and glamorous taste but so far, he's kinda done crap. I think we would have seen more great outfits from Kelli had she stuck around but Daniel? I'm not expecting much. So while I can get behind the idea that his design is trashy and not something to wear to work, Daniel should have been sent packing.

I really am having a problem with Nina's and Michael Kors' thought processes this season.
