Make a(nother) run for the fabric

OK, now TWO episodes of having to make a mad dash across dirt/grass and now dirty warehouse floors? I think future contestants will pack running shoes to wear for outside Parsons field trips.

I was split 50/50 on the judges' decision. . . Victorya definitely short-cutted her way to the auf.

But I loved Sweet P's dress - I think it would have been a very marketable garment for Levi and should have won.

I also liked Chris' dress and the trim detail. I've seen raw edges in stores before...what was the big deal? It wasn't an unfinished hem.

Rami copied Jeffrey Sebelia's zipper trim idea, and that didn't ring a bell with Michael/Heidi/Nina? I didn't like the placement/outline on the center front of the skirt.
Jillilan's behavior is getting tiresome, literally. And two coats back-to-back?
I didn't like Christian's -- too scrawny. It's further proof designers design for themselves.

Ricky's was good, you must agree the rivet/button-fly closure was a creative closure. But the win? Most likely a bone toss to keep him around another episode to be auf'd later in case of a stumble by a designer already predestined for Bryant Park.
