Project Runway - Episode 10

While I understand that the liklihood of my favorite designer being auf'd is pretty high, I'm just not getting the judges' thought process this season. I agree with most of the eliminations but not the timing of the eliminations. And if Suede winds up being one of the non-decoys at Fashion Week, I'm gonna grab my trendiest handbag and throw up in it.

Episode 10: Challenge: "Create a makeover look for a college-aged woman for entry into the working world."

The Official Winner

Designer: Jerell
Jerell has a funky little style and I do think he's as wildly innovative as he is talented. But I wasn't a huge fan of this outfit. The blouse looked sloppy and I'm not really sure how to describe it other than I just wasn't feeling it on this one.

Official Loser

Designer: Joe
Oh Joe. Your eliminations saddens me so. I admit this wasn't one of his best outfits and I agree with the judges that it looks way too "80s Working Girl." These days, you don't need to wear a pin stripe suit to look professional and I think he just missed the mark on this one. As a fan of low-cut tempting cleavage-y tops, I adore the blouse and want one. But as an entire outfit, the look was just too old. But not old enough to qualify for elimination, damnit! So that's one New York Fashion Week collection that was a decoy. Ya tricky Project Runway bastards!

Who Should Have Won

Designer: Kenley
Kenley is an over-confident pain right in the ass. I agree with some of the designers that all she can do is 50s style retro dresses but her super adorable outfit should have won this one (she thought so too as it was all sorts of obvious that she was pissed at not winning this challenge).

Who Should Have Lost

Designer: Suede
Seriously. Third-person-speaking Suede needs to take his ass home, like yesterday. He's in the bottom 3 a lot and consistently brings to the table something that's either so-so or just plain bad. I really just don't understand why the judges have kept him around so long.
