Project Runway Season 7: Episode 5: Bible Study Time
When the episode opened with another funny quip from Anthony ("Wake up. It's bible study time. But I use it as a weapon" and then hitting Jay with the Holy Word which was a riot), I thought he was in trouble. He was getting too much camera time which is always a bad sign. But expectations turned upside down as the comic-relief designer emerged as a winner and the ice-queen former favorite (Milla with the bangs and the Anna Wintour haughty attitude) got slapped down.
It got very tiring to hear Heidi and Tim endlessly bray about how this was the BIGGEST challenge in Project Runway history. Tim's sole advice seemed to be "Just make it perfect!" And what was up with that bitchy Marie Clare editor-in-chief? Was she vying with Nina, her subordinate, for all the attention? Did someone tell her that because she's British she should be like Simon Cowell and say the nastiest things that pop into her scones-and-buttter head? Nausea, polluted seawater, and hospital food were her main images. EWW! You don't gots to be so mean, bitch! And why do they always cut away from the muscular arms of that hot make-up artist so fast? Linger on them biceps, Mr. Cameraman.
Everyone but Ben and Emilio seemed to be afraid of bold colors. And you need those to make an outfit stand out on a magazine cover. Emilio's was very sexy and I loved that whipped out his scissors and snipped those spaghetti straps right off. I wasn't wild about his color, it was too burgundy for me. I would have preferred a brighter red. Ben's bright combinations should have won. They really popped and the textures were interesting. The belt was nice too. Anthony's was nice and flowing, but it didn't have the vibrancy of Ben's. Jonathan's superheroine-hooker look was good for a laugh. Isn't Ben the one who worked in comic books?
It was a close call for elimination between Jeaneane (bridesmaid at the wedding of the Little Mermaid) and Ana (pregnant teeny bopper on the way to the beach in Datoyna). They both didn't have long for this world.
