My favorite this week was Rami. I honestly don't understand what the objection of the judges was about the hat his model wore. I thought it was cute and it was the kind of accessory they usually recommend. It doesn't help when they don't make sense like that.

Absolutely LOVED Michael's caftan dress. He totally deserved to win this one. Thought the color was beautiful and I even liked the way he styled it with the white necklace. The simplicity pattern company puts out a project runway line of patterns and I hope Michael sells this design to them for that because I would totally buy it.
My second favorite was Anthony's. I like the shape and I thought the color was beautiful and it did remind me of green tea.
The others were all kind of meh. Jarrell needs to get his head out of the drum circle and stop with the hippy dippy crap. And I don't know how many more of Kenly's Minnie Mouse appropriate stuff I can take.
And I disagree with most people here about April and Kara's looks. Kara's was better this week, even if she is irritating. This competition loses integrity when they send someone home because they want to save someone else they just like better. It should go according to the merit of what they did that week. And BTW, April is irritating too.

I was wondering how they picked which designers to have back and I was especially wondering why Korto wasn't back.

I agree with the other posters here. It seems to me like the judges are keeping people around for the "drama" they bring. Why do they think we want to watch some arrogant snob talk someone else down, and then they send something truly horredous down the rumway (Laura)? I want to see craftsmanship and creativity. In this challenge, I think Laura should have been sent home- she has consistantly put out tacky stuff. Either Josh or Kim should have won this one; both their dresses were beautiful, but Joshes nasty attitude and threatening behavior is getting on my nerves.

Also, I think the judges were unfair to Victor. Why tell someone to be inspired by birds, and then scold them for being too literal when they are inspired by birds??? I think his gown was beautiful.

I still haven't gotten over the fact that they kicked Michael off last season because his 3 looks for the final were all in the same color family, and yet, Grinchen won with an ALL BROWN COLLECTION!

I agree with others that the snarky "drama" detracts from the show. This is the only reality show I watch and it is NOT to see the manufactured drama. I also don't think the 1 1/2 hour format helped. It just seemed give more time for the hatefulness. I wonder if they understand that we watch for the CLOTHES not the crap.
