So long, Simone!





Man, it really sucks to be the first one to go, doesn't it? We never even got a chance to figure out if we hate you!

On the other hand...

Oh, honey. Everything about this was just wrong. As puzzled as we were with the win last night, we have to say that the judges were absolutely correct in their aufing choice.


Whatever her original plan was, it looks more interesting than what she wound up with.


We pretty much hate all the fabric choices she made but man, is that yellow UGLY.


"Tim, I'm thinking of making a really boring dress in really ugly mismatched colors and then topping it off with a jacket that looks like a table runner from Pier 1's Christmas collection. Your thoughts?

Hey, where are you going?"


We can't really make any assessments as to her skill level because sometimes people need a couple tries before they can get into the swing of how things are done on Project Runway.


For all we know, she's quite skilled when she's working on her own terms, but last night's entry looked like a Sewing 101 project gone bad.


Readers, here's your assignment for today: we need a witty term for mismatched tittery. You know, when one boob looks like it's mad at the other one. We have a feeling we're going to need such a term this season.


Actually, we're going to backpedal a little. That jacket isn't bad. Put it over a little black cocktail dress and it would look quite chic.


And if she'd been wearing such a dress, that hairstyle would have looked quite chic and simple and appropriate. With this dress, it just highlighted how mismatched and uneven everything was.

Don't you worry, kittens. We have something to say about every single dress, designer, model, judge and hairstyle, so be patient and we'll get to all of it.

In the mean time, check out Simone's exit interview:

  1. Sometimes I wished in their exit interviews they'd say, "WOW, I completely blew ass on that, huh? Who knew I'd fuck up so completely?" Imagine my surprise and delight if they were honest.

    My husband and I always just say "wall-eyed" for wonky tits, as in:

    Me: nudge, nudge.
    Him: Huh?
    Me: Wall-eyed.
    Him: Sister, you gotta PAY FOR QUALITY! Point in the same direction, please.
    Me: I love you.

  2. First off, can I just say that I LOVE those close-up screencaps? You can see all the details and things you didn't catch while watching the episode, so thank you, guys.

    The dress was poorly made and I hate the color combination. She deserved to be auf'd.

    ReplyDelete
  3. How about "bosom enemies"? Has that "Dynasty" flavor, right?

    ReplyDelete
  4. If Nina can find a flaw from 30 feet away, you're toast. Don't they watch the show?

    I nominate "mastectomy by charmeuse" from the other thread.

  5. How 'bout:
    Boobery Imbalance
    or
    Titlexia
    ?

    ReplyDelete
  6. Mismatched tittery:

    “civil war reenactment” = north vs. south and troops are coming from all directions

    “a dance off” = each one dances in its own space until one is declared the winner

    “opposite day!” = a fictional holiday

    “escape from Alcatraz” = I think that’s what the one on the left is trying to do

    ReplyDelete
  7. I felt bad for her. I think she could've done a lot better. Oh well, someone had to go....


    How about lazy-eye boobs?

    ReplyDelete
  8. Love the "bosom enemies", tres cute.
    No doubt Simone deserved to go, too bad she didn't get the chance to see if she could pick up steam.
    Still, Elisa comes across as a flake. And that thing she made...what was that supposed to be? At least Simone created, you know, clothes.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I could tell by her collection at Bryant Park that she'd be the first one to go.

  10. Boring is as boring does. Wake me when Simone has truly exited the building. +YAWN+

  11. I vote for titlexia.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Well, someone with wonky eyes is cock-eyed, so someone with wonky tits could be "cock-titted", although it's a touch vulgar, no?

    Maybe "skoobs" for "skewed boobs", or "skooters" for "skewed hooters".

    I like the wittiness of "bosom enemies", I must say.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Is is bad that I watch the show wondering what will the P Rungay guys say at every minute?

    Then I have to watch again to really watch.

    PLEASE PLEASE give us your comments soon on the "blue dress pooing material". And the rolling around on the material in the park to create grass stains.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I agree with the auf'ing too. Sad, I rather liked her.

    I'll think about the booby thing, but I love titlexia and skoobs!

  15. There was something in Simone's personality that I responded to but her outfit was certainly lacking.

    Re: the mismatched tittery - perhaps "Breasts East & West"
    or an "Out-of-Whack Rack"?

    ReplyDelete
  16. Liked her, liked the jacket*, didn't like the dress.

    *You are absolutely right that it would look lovely over an elegant LBD.

    ReplyDelete
  17. They got to pick from 50.000 dollars worth of fabric, and those were her choices?? She must have panicked in the fabric tent. It looks kind of like a lot of them ended up with really small yardages(of really nice fabric). The skirt fabric she chose however,just looks cheap.

    Titlexia: that's a good one. The model has a moderate case of titlexia.

    ReplyDelete
  18. What about
    "Breast strabismus"?

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'm hoping they're going to make them change models every time. There are some seriously crappy walkers out there, and I would love to see one of the egomaniacs like Rami or Christian get stuck with one of them. And then blame the model when they're auf'd.

    Titlexia! bwaha!

  20. Fangs for the Mammaries.

  21. Oof. The hair do on that model is FUG. With a capital F.

  22. Good God, the exit interview is even more boring than the dress. Good auf choice!

    I second the close-up screen caps remark. THANK YOU.

  23. LMAO at some of the suggestions.

  24. I could tell from the preview fashion show that Elisa or Simone would be the first auf. I was kind of hoping they'd toss Elisa so we don't have to put up with her Hippy Dippy Weatherman act any longer. Both garments were horrible.

    Looking forward to the rest of your comments. I have to say I was surprised by their Top 3, but I got some points because Rami won, so ... whatever. Now I need to join the RunGay team!

  27. How about "Tornado Tits"

  28. How about boobus lopsidus for that horrible affliction of non-symmetircal boobs.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Mismatched tittery is hard to beat as a term. Some other good ones already here, but since I can't resist this stuff:

    "Thataway boobs"
    "The Pointer Sisters"
    "Side Seekers"
    "boobs akimbo"
    "Polarized"

    Yeah, this outfit was bad, and the poor executing gave it the nod over Elisa's "pooing fabric." (Fess up, was that your card boys? Didn't you use a similar term to discuss something on here a while back? Or did you just put Heidi up to it?)

    ReplyDelete
  30. Breast Side Story, because it's usually that one or both are headed out all sideways and whatnot

    ReplyDelete
  31. How about vextitation. Where they are pissed at each other and not speaking?

    My DH has volunteered to measure the models by hand, like Elisa.

    I am DAMNED happy to read you guys the morning after (again). I was thirsting for PRG bitchery.

  32. does anybody know if Bravo discontinued Tim's Take/ Podcasts?

    ReplyDelete
  33. "Don't you worry, kittens. We have something to say about every single dress, designer, model, judge and hairstyle, so be patient.."
    Yeah, it's a lot of work on the first episodes with so much going on. Looking fwd to the commentary.
    The models are puzzling this season. I can't quite put my finger on it but am curious about the selection process.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I was wondering the same thing. I always loved Tim's blog and podcast. My guess is with his new show he is much busier. Hopefully it's just delayed rather than discontinued.

    I thought it added a lot of insight into the show and really showcases Tim's opinion. While not a judge, I find it interesting to see if he agrees or disagrees.

  37. Hello faithful PR watchers . . .

    I am a diehard PR fan (and longtime reader of this blog, which I love). I recently moved to Europe, where I can't get PR on TV, and I had assumed that Season 4 would go on iTunes . . . But NBC/Bravo apparently hasn't renewed its contract, so that may not be happening.

    Does anyone know how I can watch Season 4 without access to the Bravo channel? Buffering, torrents, anything! I'm up for the challenge. I just don't know where to start.

    Let me know . . .
    (And I apologize if this has already been discussed and I missed it!)

    Waiting with bated breath,
    Emma

  38. Her dress was poorly made, boring and what colorwheel from another planet did she use? Ewwww. The yellow, however, matched her measuring tape perfectly.

    Farewell, Simone. It sucks to be first auf'ed but in the end you may be better off because of it. Maybe you can Daniel Franco your way back on next year. Of course, that wasn't necessarily a positive thing either, I suppose...

    You can try buying Project Runway 4 from itunes. They have past season 2 and 3 that you can purchase.

    I don't see the 4th season up yet, but it could be up in a couple days.

    It's not the ideal way to watch the show, but I do it with some shows and it's great.

  64. "Titzaphrenia" (Anonymous, 2:08 PM):

    1. The dress suffered from a clear case of titzaphrenia.
    2. The top of the dress was a titzoid mess.
    3. Tbe designer was a titza and she deserved the aufing.

  65. Titzaphrenia. Definitely.

  66. You know, you boys (& this site) should have a Wikipedia entry so you can list all the words and catchphrases that have originated here & swept the cultural lexicon.

    From 'angry little peanut' to 'titlexia': This site has spawned catchphrases like the original Saturday Night Live. It should be documented for posterity (or, at least, amusement).

  73. Ugh, the dress was wretched! I'm so amazed at how many of these designers think their creation is the best ever and get all teary-eyed when it goes down the runway, when it's cleary a shit storm.

    As far as mismatched tittery, how about "titscrepancy"?

    ReplyDelete
  74. Oh man, I love you guys. Out of whack rack, titslexia, skoobs....

    I gotta say though, I get what Tim was talking about with the talent of this year's crop. First or second season, this wouldn't have been a winner, but it might have squeaked by. Still ugly, though. Still ugly.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Titlexia wins it for me.

    But I'm with Heidi on this one - I liked the color combinations of the dress. And I liked the jacket, but not with the dress. And the construction was a nightmare. Too bad because Simone looked like she could be an interesting designer.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Titscrepancy is great. Simone's dress was hideous, I question her taste level, and when she was asked to remove the jacket I was sure the judges would notice the lack of zipper.

    I really liked Christian's suit and I just LOVE him. I actually liked Ricky's, (he is sort of Andraeish to me), dress too. I would probably have liked them more, however, if they had rolled the fabric around in the grass first, grass stains are so organic.

  81. My votes go to:

    1) titslexia (as opposed to titlexia, which I keep mentally construing as title-xia)

    3) discomboobulated (probably my favorite because it really needs no explanation)

No, actually that would look graceful, what am I thinking? It's like they got rusty scarecrow robots to teach the girls how to walk. Somebody please - get Miss Jay Alexander in there to show
    some of the girls how to walk.

    ReplyDelete
  94. It takes a bad, bad dress to make a girl as hot as she look bad. I don't see anything whatsoever wrong with her breasts; it's the whacked-out fabric that doesn't fit and is not symmetrical that is titlexic, not the girl.

  98. "Michaela said...I vote "titskew" -- titlexia is amusing, but what has skewed boob to do with the inability to read?"

    I was thinking that titlexia (or titslexia) is a condition that causes the breast(s) to be jumbled and out of normal position just as dyslexia causes one to see letters jumbled and out of place.

    But I like Gotham Tomato's answer... "Well, if vaginas can do monologues, why can't boobs read?"
    HA!

    I'm also loving "wackity rack" because of it's allusion to Nick's quote from Season 2.

    And I'd have to say the winning dress from last night caused a severe case of visual titslexia because each breast was draped differently. I hate that.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Arriving late in the game, the only new ones I can come up with are "Tit Spat" and "Titzoid". But no need to settle on one term--you'll probably have occasion to use quite a few of the suggestions.

    reassure that you're going to dish on the little cutie in the c. 1975 leatherboy hat. that you'll tell us what that little miss new age lalala is really thinking?

  114. oh and I forgot -

    where a model's boob inbalance is caused by bad dressmaking - which I mean seriously, these girls are FAR to young to have the inbalance on their own - doesn't it seem too cruel to criticize the boobs themselves instead of the dress?

    While currently "titslexia" has my vote, I'm going to try and think of something that's more about the designer's problem.... hmmmm...
