BUT I think it's even more lame to make one designer do the show but not put it on tv... so in the end, I guess it's a wash... basically like this whole season. <br/><br/>So just another piece of evidence that LAST season (season 2) was the best PR ever, we now have Diana Eng emerging as one of the most relevant designers out there. I actually met her at Yahoo Hack Day (she was super nice) and her team WON the top prize -- as voted on by all the other hackers. She and her partner created a handbag called Blogging in Motion -- it has a camera phone that snaps pictures at regular intervals and instantly uploads it to Flickr. Pretty cool.

Laura & Uli – yawn. They are who they are and they LOVE what they do. Unfortunately Project Runway is looking for the next great American sportswear designer. What about conquering your segment. Laura can be the next cocktail dress designer; Uli could be the next “Lilly Pulitzer”.

Now for Jeffrey – do I love him, no. He has a distinct POV also. I think he fell off with the cocktail challenge. He created something that looked like the Swiss Miss girl on hard times and gone bad. I loved it cause he really needed a swift kick of humble pie.

Yes, I’ve previewed the entire collection on WWD. It’s a toss up. This season will be interesting; I can’t even begin to guess who will be the winner. There were no standouts; I’m terrified to say that left to their own devices that not a single designer has outshined another. There’s one thing about previewing the pictures, you loose the heightened sense of euphoria after the show. There’s no music, no oooohhhh’s, ahhhh’s head turns to acknowledge approval of “I’d wear that”. Until the next episode

i was really surprised by how much i didn’t like michael’s final runway collection, and how much i loved all the other 3 designers’!!! it’s probably a personal taste thing, but i’d been rooting for him all this time. :(

I was so shocked to see her collection. Not so much print. <br/>Michael's runway show is pretty strong too.<br/>Laura's .. hmm ... I don't know. They all look kind of boring to me. Too much lace, I think.<br/>Jeffrey was under an investigation for outsourcing his sewing... What?? I don't think his collection is strong anyway. His milkmaid dress on the last episode is a copy of what Nina Garcia is showing on the first look.

Michael’s runway show is pretty strong too.
Laura’s .. hmm … I don’t know. They all look kind of boring to me. Too much lace, I think.
