Maybe its just me, but it totally looked like Santino was intentionally trying to pull Emmitt's pants down while they were skating in line!

TIMM GUNN ON ICESKATES... greatest moment ever

Anonymous said...

Andrae takes time to fix the overlock machine and worries he won't finish his own design...

Anonymous said...

"...basic in a J C Penney way," cut immediately to Santino, talking to Tim, "Well, basically..."

AJ said...

Okay...first installment from me:

10:02- Chloe moves in w/ Kara & Zu...what's the deal Emmett?

10:02:30- First appearance of Andrae's jogging shorts...

10:03- Model choosing- what will go down?! We were right! Daniel and Andrae keep their models. Peace out Cara...

10:05- Robert is delivering the mail...what is wrong with this picture? Santino is shirtless...that's what's wrong.

10:07- Santino needs to get dressed! Stat! Nick quote about Emmett- "G-g-g-g-gay!"

10:08- Tim calls Santino "Dr. Zhivago"...I heart Tim.

10:09- I heart Nick too. He looks like he won the lottery the second he heard the challenge. Zulema looks like a ten year old w/ the glitter makeup and dres. Too cute!

10:10- Tim Gunn on ice skates...HI-larious! Kara is smuggling Tic-Tacs...

10:11- Nice shot of Emmetts ass courtesy of Santino. Uh...thanks?

10:16- Sketch it out bitches...now shop. Kara is still cold.

10:19- Emmett- "I want to keep it glittery...verges on tacky." Kiss of death?

10:21- The overlock machine is screwed up and Andrae is about to have a sh*t fit.

10:22- Nick mocks Andrae faux British accent...loves it!

10:30- The overlock machine is dunzo...who's screwed now?

10:32- Nick's looks fab right now! Santino is foreshadowing Michael Kors' reaction to his design...loves it too!

Second half to come...

AJ said...

10:34- Santino is wigging...this is awesome! Who are we eating and why?

10:35- Kara has lost her tassels...

Emmett is starting to look natural in the hot pink:)

AJ said...

Zhivago...why all the embellishment? Are we trying to promote cannibalism by way of Michael Kors?

Anonymous said...

Sequins on the eyelids?! ouch...

Daniel V was formerly a competitive gymnast, it says in his bio.

AJ said...

10:41- Runway begins...Heidi looks FAB!

10:42- Donde esta Nina? She sent a clone!

First Impressions:

Daniel V.- Gorgeous! The color is wonderful.

Zu- Lookin' good Zu! I dig it, and what's her fuss looks better w/ extensions.

Kara- Nice with the one shoulder long sleeve. "Cha cha cha"

Emmett- No bad. Longish torso though, and a tad glittery.

Andrae- Featherish...but nice.

Santino- Featherish...and featherish...

Nick- Ooooooooooh! Pretty! Tarah looks lovely in it too.

Chloe- LOVE the color!! Grace rocked it too.

AJ said...

Our predictions are looking good, no?

Anonymous said...

Santino: Roadkill on Ice!!!!

AJ said...

Chloe's is a hit...sort of. Problem w/ height of Grace vs. Sasha. MK digs it.

AJ said...

Kara is Vegas.

Emmett is blah...too short. "Too much tootie" LMAO!

AJ said...

Zulema- Sasha likes it.

The extensions in her models hair helps to explain next weeks screen cap pic!!

AJ said...

Oh Santino...Sasha likes the ruching...hot! "A lot going on"...no joke...the judges aren't despising it...oh j/k!

"Carmen Miranda on acid" Nina's clone is clever!

AJ said...

Emmett's is so boring though...it looks like something from ten years back...

Anonymous said...

How could they dub Emmet's vulgar and Zulema's not?

AJ said...

Zulema is wearing the skating dress w/ her big ass sunglasses!

Loves it!

Emmett is vulgar and dowdy...HIlarious!

Anonymous said...

Kors sho'nuff luvs Santino, no? She could wear it "opening a Thanksgiving pageant."

AJ said...

Is Kara wearing a scrunchie?? Things that make you go hmmmmm...

Zu for the win, Emmett out.

Santino will be here at least another week...he makes for great TV. Wanting to eat people and ish.

"BACON!!!" The Queer Eye guys are cracking me up...lol

AJ said...

Is it bad that I'm just happy that Nick, Daniel V and Andrae are safe??

Hooray!

Anonymous said...

It's got to be Santino!!! If not, then truly they are keeping him around for drama!! I didn't hate Emmitt's. And like he said, it wasn't that short on the mannequin. He didn't plan it that way.

AJ said...

Scrunchie is safe!

Zulema wins...hooray for my pick!

Anonymous said...

oh yikes. I can't believe they are considering letting Santino go. I thought they'd keep him all the way through to Fashion Week as an easy way to manipulate us. Can it be they are trusting the true drama of the competition? Good on them, if they do!

AJ said...

Chloe is "in"

Zhivago is safe...Emmett is out.

Our conspiracy theories paid off!

Next week we have ourselves a crazy bitchin' walkoff!

AJ said...

Nick is crying...I heart him SO much!

AJ said...

Ooooh! Jay is a guest judge...loves it!

And whatever Santino is making next week looks kind of hot.

Anonymous said...

That is UNBELIEVABLE!!! Santino should have been gone long ago. I guess it pays to be a jerk (I'm being nice)

Anonymous said...

How terrible for Emmett that he not only got the boot but got it wearing that hideous pink shirt. So sad.

Nick's crying...

Jay's coming back next week?!?! I love Jay!

How funny that they had Rob deliver the skating costumes (since this Challenge was just like the Postal Worker challenge last season). Is that why his photo was posted on here earlier today? Emmett's face was priceless. He had no idea who Rob was. (Remember, he's a MENSWEAR designer.) And it looks like he is indeed living alone.

As we get further into the competition, I like that the cameras get into the apartments more. It's nice to see the designers outside of the competition, interacting with each other in a slightly less tense atmosphere.

At the ice rink: Zulema really got into the costume; she lloked like Grace Jones on ice. Kara and Chloe just looked kind of goofy. Daniel lucked out on the outfit - his was so understated.

When I saw the group go to the trim store, I thought of how insane Santino was going to be on this challenge. He does so much on a simple party dress that doing a traditional sequiny outfit would become a nightmare.

I really didn't appreciate Nick mocking Andrae for working on the machines (doing the accent that goes in and out). At last Andrae tried to help. Without him fixing the machines, would the designers have been able to complete their garments? And he was so cute presenting "Princess Cyclone" to Tim.

I feel sorry for Santino's model. She knows that he's doing too much with his garments, but no one can get through to him ("If I have to eat somebody, I'll eat somebody").

On the runway, Emmett's design looked like one of those old grandma skirted-bathing suits, just with some extra sparkle. Santino's garment looked like a molting flamingo. Chloe's design, in her trademark color, was simple and elegant. I probably liked her's most. Andrae's looked a bit too loose for a competitive skater to wear, but I really liked his. Zulema's outfit was very skate-friendly, but I am just not a fan of all that nude space.

In the end, I hope Santino gets the hint. He keeps finding himself close to getting cut for not really following directions. I guess we all kind of thought Zulema would win since the walk-off was expected for next week. And Jay will be there next week - cannot wait!

AJ said...

The judges had to choose between boring and overdesigned...it can be a toss-up. They had no reason to keep Emmett. He's consistently been blah on the challenges and Santino brings a creativity and quirkiness to the show. He is their ratings whore, but he's also got talent to go with it.

Anonymous said...

and YET AGAIN...Santino stays...WTF...it is REALLY annoying. I lost all the faith I had in this show.
It's all about the ratings.

AJ said...

This was fun Laura! Same time next week? Night y'all :)

Anonymous said...

thank god for jay mccarroll. i've been waiting for him all season.
and who cares about santino's cheap ratings jump when there is so much good work coming out of this group? get him OUT

Anonymous said...

I can't believe they kept Santino. You can only refer to tacking excess crap onto a garment as "creative vision" for about two garments. At least Emmett's was actually wearable.

Anonymous said...

Great job all! Moi - you had me in tears.

My take on Santino - the payoff will be sweet when he finally gets the auf. I'm telling you, he is not going to make it to Fashion Week.

Anonymous said...

Santino is now officially the Wendy Pepper of season 2. His designs are absurd (while Wendy's were dowdy) but they're keeping him on because he's a drama queen.

Anonymous said...

Also, I thought it was really sweet that Nick shed a tear over Emmett's auf.

Is it possible that Zulema picks Nick's model, Tarah, because Nick goes "I can't believe that bitch did this," and we see him crying some more, right? Hopefully Tarah stays with Nick, cause Tarah is my favourite model on this season.

Anonymous said...

I don't recall Nick's model being one of the three shown from the next episode preview (the black model looked like Andrae's?), though. If Zulema does a three-model walkoff to fake everyone out and then picks Nick's model, he'll go insane!

If Nick loses his model, count on him winning a challenge VERY soon in order to reclaim her.
