Though tonight's Project Runway featured no celebrity guest star, I think it posed the most interesting challenge this season (even though that's not saying much [yawn]).
The designers were asked to select from passé fashions--such as baggy sweaters, overalls and shoulder pads--and create a cohesive set of three designs in groups of three with $225 and two days.
Jack, Christian and Kit = best group ever. They selected zoot suit, fringe and pleather (or "Britney Spears on crack," according to the mighty fine Jack). They totally rocked their designs, but then again, would we expect anything but the best from--as Christian said--Team Star, Like Celebrity.

Ricky, Elisa and Victorya = team disaster. I'll hand it to Ricky for trying to communicate with spacy Elisa, who somehow stayed in the background this episode. And somehow Ricky ended up as team leader, even though Victorya bossed him around the entire episode, but more than likely didn't step up as leader because she didn't want to take the blame for the atrocious set that came out of their neon, cut-outs and underwear as outerwear designs. Bleck!

Then there was team Chris, Sweet P and Steve, or the forgotten team, because no one's designs were more yawn-worthy. Sweet P's was decent as the modern baggy sweater look, and Steven's was just okay, but Lord almighty...Chris, what happened??? (see below)
The winning team turned out to be another problematic team, but unlike Ricky's, these guys pulled it together. Jillian, Kevin and Rami won the challenge for their cohesive set of designs and modern take on overalls and such.
During judging it became quite clear who the bottom two would be: Chris and Ricky. And in the end, the judges made a horrible mistake in sending Chris home. Yes, his outfit was really bad (below), but Chris has 15 times as much personality and talent as Ricky, AND Ricky has been in the bottom two almost every week since the show began! And his stupid conductor's hat has got to go!
The previews for next week look pretty good, and I'm thinking maybe we're going with overweight models? Who knows! What I do know is some extra special spoiler information involving one of my favs, Jack, and his big announcement for next week, but don't click this link if you want to be surprised next week!
