Project Runway: Black & White, Cuckoo Chanel & Ungapatchka
LatestSince the producers love to drag things out and torture the PR audience, last night’s episode wasn’t really the finale, it was the finale PART ONE. The remaining four designers had $9,00 and four months to create collections.
Tim Gunn traveled to visit all of the designers, and the first was Seth Aaron, in Vancouver. The music was so dramatic when Tim was critiquing Seth Aaron’s collection. It might have well been the Godzilla theme song, all, dun dun DUN. Basically, Tim felt that Seth Aaron’s collection was predictable, which it was.
Later Tim hung out with Seth Aaron’s family and created a classic soundbite: “Eyeglasses. Balloons. Fallopian tube.”
I made an mp3 of this, which you can download here. If the file reaches the max amount of downloads, email me.
“Papa Gunn is on the tramp!”
Next Tim was in New York to see Emilio. Emilio is a jerk. He was showing Tim these weird pieces in vomitrocious colors and got all combative with Tim during the critique, saying, “What is your point?” Later, he said in an interview, “I design my clothes for women. And as far as I know, Tim Gunn doesn’t wear women’s clothing.” Jerk. Tim Gunn taught design at Parsons for 25 years and was the chair of fashion design at the school for seven years and Emilio needs to shut the front door.
Tim went to Los Angeles, where Mila showed her black and white collection in her black and white house with her black and white boyfriend and black and white dog. Tim on Mila: Matronly. I’d add: Shapeless. In addition, her shit-talking about Jay (“I don’t want to lose to that little fucker… He’s really annoying”) was immature and declassé.
In San Francisco, Tim checked out Jay’s collection inspired by Samurai and geisha and asked, “Where is this person going?” Jay replied: “Nowhere.”
Tim: “Qu’est-ce que c’est? What is this?”
Jay: “A sleeve.”
Tim: “It goes a little cuckoo.”
Jay: “Cuckoo Chanel, girl.”
