I do not understand the Logan Love.


He's young and makes the judges cream in their pants.


Matar is crying.


WTF?! Logan's outfit was hideous! At least Epperson's was somewhat coherent, whereas Logan's pants just needed to go off and die somewhere where they could be forgotten.


Good point that Christopher has had more looks in the top, but I still don't understand why Logan and Nicholas are still there! Can anyone explain that to me?!


Mouse, did you take care of the hornet?


I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I THINK THIS WAS ONE OF THE MOST BS AUFINGS EVER!


Tanisha rocks!!!!!


Epperson and Gordana are beautiful human beings. I hate to be age-ist,BUT............. I think the older you get, the cooler you get...


"nonymous said...

WORD.


God, this is so cool. The real women and the models are so cute together.


The hate for Irina seems at least a little excessive.

Not saying that she is endearing but c'mon


I'll miss Epperson, such a cool guy.


So cool. Models partying.


ok lady not your show.


LaFemmeFataledeNY

Gordana won, I'm so happy.


I'm so sad, Epperson is so nice.


Logan's outfit was HIDEOUS!!!! WTH????????


I'm just not getting the Logan love. I mean he's KINDA cute, but his mouth is crooked.


Well, at least they gave it to Gordana.

Not to mention that he hasn't done anything interesting. His designs are boring and ugly.

Nope, too scared to go in there tonight. Thanks for the play-by-play live blogging. I'm thrilled to hear that Gordana finally won and gets immunity to boot.

Sad about Epperson. *snif* I think he's got quite a wide range and has shown some really fantastic designs.


The models are having a great time.

Logan had the worse design in my opinion, epperson did not deserve to go home.


the worst i mean


oh my god someone farted on the runway


lolololololololol


gordana chooses matar


poor tara


Epperson? Really?


I had liked the lace that Gordana was dying (sp?) sorry that I didn't get to see her use it.

They need pretty boys for good ratings.


Is it me or was this a non-narcoleptic episode of PR6?

Good mentoring by Tim.

Although I have to say, other than Gordana winning, I wasn't fully onboard with the scoring. I thought middles should be on the bottom or top, and everything in between.


althea tanisha of course


chris katie
nicola kalyn
irina celine


logan has to decide kojii or tara


logan chooses kojii


tara goes home


that sucks she's a good model


i like tara i feel bad for her


gordana is crying


Gordana is really upset...


bottom line, tara is a great model, i'm sad to see her go


Matar is so much better than Tara anyway.


they're all sad she's leaving...she really is a great model


I don't get why people think Tara is such a great model, anyway, good night everyone. This was fun.


WTH is with the Tara love.. Previous posts said Grodana HAD to change and get rid of her.


Since some of those divorcees got married years ago, the fact that they all fit in their dresses is great - except as I typed this I realized that it kind of had to be a criteria.


Sorry. Can't buy the eye candy theory. Logan & Epperson are both nice to look at (I like 'em lean) and L. may be younger but his clothes are crap compared to E.'s.

Does Heidi have some evil power over the judging? 'Cause she hated Epperson's. (sorry buddy, reminding Heidi of Oktoberfest *clothes* is wrong - you need to costume the gal as an Oktoberfest *sausage*)

I am not amused.


Ugh, my battery died halfway through the episode.

Anyway, sad to lose Epperson. I actually thought he'd be making it to Bryant Park! He's much better than Christopher, Nicholas, Althea, Nicholas... boo. :/

Gordana is such a sweetheart, though. The way she was crying for Tara, oh, poor thing.


Nina is back : ) + Bob Mackie.


How can they send Epperson home??? That's insane. Logan's outfit was HIDEOUS!!!


Epperson????? I am so annoyed right now.


I can't believe they sent Epperson home instead of Logan. Logan's outfit was hideous and hardly used the wedding dress. It showed not even a HINT of creativity.


Watching it again - so after the prview for next week, now cracking up on the irony.
Shirin said she does not want to make a Cher dress.....

Next week Bob Mackie!

Anyone else notice the irony?


It is a joke that Logan is still in the competition. Epperson's outfit was bad, but Logan's monstrosity was far worse than anything else on the runway. Ugly design, poorly fitted, just bad, bad, bad.


You never know what these judges are going to do, I'm just glad that Gordana finally received the recognition she deserves.


Can someone please tell Heidi to STFU? She's ruining an already anemic season. At least The Great Orange One had the sense to space his out his repeat insults.

I agree, she needs to just sit there and be pretty. One more Oktoberfest comment I would have thrown something at the tv.


I can't believe Epperson instead of Christopher or Logan.


Epperson was kicked off over Logan? Poor decision by the judges, in my opinion. He's way more talented than Logan.


While I think Epperson has demonstrated more of a point of view than Logan, I think he's also made some pretty weird and unattractive looks. I'd have picked Logan to go, but I could not see Epperson making it to Bryant Park either, so I'm not bothered.

Other than the strange recycling of challenges (didn't we do this a couple of seasons ago?), I thought this episode was decent enough. Several good looks, a long-overdue win for Gordana, and first-rate judging for once.

Well, except...IRINA in the top? That was one tacky rag. Carol Hannah's look was much cuter. For that matter, Nicolas did something so bad I'd have aufed him over it.


Epperson sucked the fun out of everything, so I'm not sad to see him go. Both him and Logan have created some tacky things in the past, so I wasn't really sad at the prospect of either of them going. Although I don't see either in the finals, I'm starting to wonder who I CAN see in the finals....


After tonight's what-the-hell are they wearing? episode, I've decided we're all being Punk'd by Ashton Kutcher.

Aside from Gordana's dress-which was a hot mess- and Irina's-which was at least fitted-I'm pretty sure I've seen variations of the rest of the outfits on the People of Wal-Mart website. And if you're going to dye the fabric, what's with the meh colors? Yes, I realize they had one day to do this, but the fashions are getting WORSE instead of better.

That mother-of-the-bride "age appropriate" all-lace garment (I can't call it a dress) must look much better in person because I thought it was awful. Those sleeves! UGH! The right words don't exist for what everyone else sent down the runway.

And all that flouncing around down the runway by the ladies makes me wonder how much wine in a box was served backstage.....

At this point, I'm wondering if the judges and producers said "Screw it, we have to do a season.
We'll pick the best of the worst."

I didn't even watch the previews for next week.


Yay Gordana! It was long overdue. Also happy to see Shirin in the top 3, after everything she had to deal with. This is the second time she got the nutty model.

Irina's dress was awful.

Epperson goes over Christopher? I didn't like Epps dress, but C.'s was scary bad.

Actually, everything was bad, except Gordana's and Shirin's.


I hate that for some reason everyone seems to think Logan should have went home. yes, his outfit was awful but did anyone see what NICOLAS sent down the runway? That poor woman's navel was hanging out..and, let's be honest, that's not a flattering look for anyone..much less someone her age. How that ranked in the middle with Carol Hannah...I have no idea.


OK, they're just fucking with us. In what universe does Logan get to stay???? That outfit was ATROCIOUS!!!!!!! I thought Epperson's was cute and the judges were total assholes for no reason. FUCK THEM!


Blah! I don't like Irina. She really irked me this episode with her, "I think everyone is talking smack about me behind my back because I'm so awesome."

I bet everyone was thinking what... oh crap, I don't remember who said it other than, "She's becoming even more insufferable because she thinks she's better than everyone else." Which is true. She hasn't really made anything that blew my mind or made me think of her as any sort of a innovative designer.

It'd be interesting to see if anyone else said "bad things" about her and just didn't make it into the show.


omg, i cannot believe nicolas was safe. that was the shittiest outfit. SHITTIEST.

not a fan of christopher's. i'm SOOOOO glad gordana finally got the love. loved what she did.


btw, i could have DIED hearing tim say, "you don't want to look like a cougar!"

love that man.


I'm actually quite disappointed that Epperson was sent home - had the bodice fit better that would have been a pretty cute outfit - but he had the best attitude and I sincerely hope he does well after the show.
I think Logan's ability to charm the judges with his shiny pants has gone too far if it means more talented designers get the boot.
On the plus side - Nina Garcia will be back next week! And is it just my TV or did La Kors look especially orange this week? Whatever, I'm just glad he's back!

Well said! Heidi is so much meaner this season; and she seems to be having so much fun with it, too. Could you please try some constructive criticism instead of openly laughing at the designs?

As for the model mix-up involving Tara - I think Gordana's better off without her (I don't think she's a strong walker), but I'm tired of seeing designers go with a second choice model out of politeness to their fellow designers. This is a competition! It's not rude to choose someone else's model; that's just part of the competition. You have to go with the model that you think will compliment your designs best. And when you get first pick, take advantage of it and don't worry about being "nice."


poor Epperson! he should have stayed, this is outrageous.


Heidi had better watch out or she will turn this show into the nonsensical joke that "America's Next Top Model" is.

In the Christian Siriano season of PR, the designers had to remake a dress for formerly fat women who had lost a tremendous amount of weight. One of the women did bring in a wedding dress, and her designer was auf'd, I believe. Other than that, I have heard that PR Canada had this very challenge.

I can believe they are keeping Logan as eye candy, and maybe even Christopher, but Nicolas? Hahahaha.


Anybody else clocking a Susan Boyle audition dress vibe from Irina's?

Nobody looks sexy in tea-stain. Unless they're Margaret Dumont, of course.

Haven't seen epi yet, but it's first in a long while I'm actually looking forward to.


I just don't care anymore, sending Epperson off was the last straw in a long series of awful judging decisions. At least the annoying characters on Bravo who lasted until the final two episodes made crazy shit and/or great drama. All bland, all forced, all awful, no personality. Season 6 = Officially Barf.


I like mean Heidi. [/small voice]


Arghhhh...WHY do I keep watching this mess of a season? Ok...Gordana really deserved the win, loved the dress.
But WTH was with that matronly mother of the bride get up that Irina threw together, and that 60's wannabe of Shirin's? Those two did not deserve to be in the top three. I thought Carol Hannah's did.
And Epperson auf'd over Logan's hot mess? Unbelievable.
The only reasons I will watch next week are threefold: Bob Mackie, Nina, and this fab blog.

Not to sound like Santino, but Shirin's voice does not make me happy."

i absolutely agree with you. shirin's voice is very grating. in the same way that the tugboat cat thrower's was. so harsh, loud and aggressive. she seems indoor voice challenged. might want to work on that. other than her annoying voice, she seems like a nice girl, and some of her designs were great.

(if shirin is hearing impaired, i am going to feel like a total shit for typing this).


really stinks that epperson went. as unattractive as that bodice was, it was not the worst design in this challenge. after seeing nicholas' mess come down the runway, thought for sure he'd be the one auf'ed.

and, i am still happy that irina did not win. her dress was tacky and matron-assy. imo, didn't deserve the high praise she received for it.


Epperson? SO NOT FAIR!!!!


What a mixture of emotions!

Glad for Gordana, even though the dress was reminiscent of Althea's.

But auf'ing Epp just so they can look at McDreamy and his silver pants...ridiculous

And Heidi's bullshit excuse that "Epperson didn't really understand the challenge."

BITCH you read every single line from a fuckin' cue card! You barely understand English!

And Heckyl and Jeckyl nodding in agreement. Who are those bitches, anyway?

The Duchess got in some good ones, but even she couldn't take out Heidi and her flunkies.

Where the FOCK is Nina?
Get Fern Mallis for god's sake!

Why do you lose two IQ points for each day you linger in LA?

But no matter now, they've already had their favorites chosen by then, so the next few weeks is just going to be a series of random pickoffs to keep their treasured pretty boy, and the two blondies.

Either Nikolas or Shirin are next.


moulinandmoi
10/8/09 10:24 PM they should have a challenge with whores, I would love to hear tim say "ok, designers, I'm sending in the whores."

Two years too late.
That was the wrestling challenge from s.4


bitchybitchybitchy

What a bullshit decision to send Epperson packing! Epperson's design had some problems, but Logan's was a hot mess-badly fitted pants, a frumpy blouse/vest that was also poorly fitted. Yet the pretty boy stays. Do I detect the heavy hands of the Bunim/Murray production team in this decision?

I'm glad that Gordana won, puzzled by all of the love showered on Irina for a dumpy design.

And can someone please shut Heidi up? Her comments on the designs aren't constructive or illuminating. She seems to be laughing at the designers and that comes across as simply mean.

This season was not worth the wait. Blah challenges, a rotating cast of less than great judges, not enough Nina and MK. The only reason to watch to this blog.


Finally a win I agree with! Athough I think Carol Hannah did a good job too. She should a have been in the top 3 with Shirin and Gordana.

Irina should have been in the middle with Christopher and Epperson. In fact Irina and Epperson's dresses were pretty similar if you just look at the pattern and not the fabric. The judges seem to hate any dress with a full skirt.

The bottom should have been Althea, Nicholas, and Logan. With anyone of them going home. Althea's dress was henious. I can't believe it was scuttled off the stage with a "You're safe".


As much as I'm sad to see Epperson go, he made a costume. A cute costume, but one I've seen many times at Ren Faires and goth clubs (just in different colors). There was nothing new, innovative, or interesting about it. And though Logan's was a mess, I think he was saved because at least his made clothes instead of a costume.

Nicolas should have been in the bottom -- that was a fugly outfit. And I don't get the praise for Irina. I'm very certain I've seen that dress before (though in better colors) in places like Ross and TJ Maxx.

HeidiB said: And if you're going to dye the fabric, what's with the meh colors?

As someone who has tried dying before, I can say it is really difficult to get a nice, bright color. Add in 100% polyester to the mix and it's nearly impossible.


I smell producer intervention. I like Logan fine and think he's a good designer, but there is NO WAY those pants should have gotten a pass. Guess I am just bitter—Epperson was my favorite personality on the show.

–EP


I am totally confused as to why Logan was in the bottom, but Nicolas was not. Not to say Logan didn't deserve it, but Nicolas? Really? That woman looked atrocious. The vest was tacky and you could see her midriff. Don't tell me that wasn't a fit issue as prominent as Logan's. And no way did the majority of his design incorporate the wedding dress. How was that any less of a misinterpretation than Epperson's?

And how did Irina make it into the top and not Carol Hannah? That lace disaster looked like a curtain in my grandmother's house.

Ladies and gentlemen, capital WTF?


Hi TLo - I started watching Project Runway ONLY because of your blog (if Lifetime is not compensating you, they should be!), but after the completely bizarre judging on this and other episodes, I can't stand to watch anymore. It's just too frustrating!

By the way, I'm glad Gordana won and I think she deserved it - but even that is not enough to keep me watching.


Epperson?
WTF?

I don't get the Irina dress hate.
I might not be something young gals would wear, but I'm almost 50 and thought the dress was age appropriate, a lovely color and a flattering design for many body types.
And there was no chance your lady bits will be flashing anyone.
