"Remember the Unicorns" - Timothy
The first four designers are at some old-timey airport. One of them is from Russia. Three more designers arrive - the one in a hot pink shirt and bright blue pants claims to be "a force to be reckoned with" I'm going to guess right now that he gets voted off tonight! The guy with the orange hair says "Some people love me some people hate me" - I love him! Are they jumping out of airplanes?
Heidi and Tim arrive to welcome them to the "runway" (oh, I get it! Runway!). Hey! A former designer is returning to be the 16th person in the competition, I didn't know that. It's Kate from last season. Who cares? Are there really a lot of Kate fans out there? At least it's not Project Runway Teams anymore. One designer is deaf! Cool.
Love Heidi's glasses and Tim's suit is amazing! Gotta take a picture:

A bunch of other stuff just happened, but when I tried to update after the first commercial it was all deleted. The highlights include my favorite orange-haired designer saying that he designed costumes for The Lion King and Mary Poppins, a guy with a beard who was a professional modern dancer, and a woman who used to be in the army.
COMMERCIAL #1
Kate is being nice to everyone and explaining how it goes. The Russian guy is so cute! He is making a swimsuit and said something about having potential which was cute, but which also got deleted from this blog somehow.
We get to see inside the hotel a little, but I'm not that impressed with the decor. Here is Orange Hair and his roommate Modern Dancer (who also kind of has orange hair, but he has a beard):

And now I can finish trying to fix the mistake with the blog and continue watching (I had to pause - sorry!)
There's an older guy who has two really cute kids!
AHH! The orange-haired guy's name is Alexander Pope! Seriously. Love him. He can't believe the woman with the blond sort of dreadlocks doesn't know how to use a basic sewing machine (she is trying to do 3,000 pleats, and based on her sketch it is not going to look very good even if she does finish the pleats, which seems unlikely).
Timothy doesn't usually use electricity. He is into, like, sustainable stuff. He's "waiting to get into a situation with a wood stove" which almost would have won best quote of the episode, if he hadn't already said something about unicorns. Now Timothy is burning his dress to make it "interesting." The Russian and the former model (Alexandria?) are not getting slong.
TIM TIME!
Tim likes the colorblocking that Alexandria the former model is doing, but to me the parachute fabric is really bunching up at the seams and does not look good - that's probably going to be true for most of the designers, though.
Alexander says, "Kate's dress is soooo girly" and then makes a face. :)
Brandon is the name of the modern dancer. His inspiration is wind. Tim says there is something James-Bondish about it.
Tim likes the effect the burning had on Timothy's fabric. Ken (he was pink/shirt blue pants guy) thinks Timothy's dress is awful. Timothy wants his model to go barefoot, so Tim tells him to go for it.
The army girl is not using her parachute very much. This could really hurt her because it's kind of breaking the rules, but this has happened before on PR with mixed results.
COMMERCIAL #2
Helen has tattoos. I haven't mentioned her yet. She is also not really using much of her parachutte in the garment.
A few more designers whose names I don't know also get critiques from Tim.
Dreadlocks is named Sue. She had 1% hope after the pleating didn't go well, but Tim thinks her garment is a knockout.
The Russian is named Sandro. He is making a jacket for the top of his swimsuit (what?)
The models are here. Timothy asks his model how she feels about "acting and moving awkwardly and things like that." She's going to try. He wants her to channel the Virgin Mary and to sniff her armpit.
The designer with the short blonde hair has made something with a hood that looks like a raincoat to me.
The models leave and the second night is over. Tomorrow is the runway.
COMMERCIAL #3
Tim has to stop and ask Timothy what he is doing (pulling is model, which he calls "choreography." Time reminds him that each model has the same amount of time on the runway. The model wonders if she should just walk normally. Timothy: "Um, no."
Hair and make-up time. Fun, summery, smoky eye, cat eye, etc. Timothy's model can't have product or anything that's plugged in. Just bobby-pinning and braiding and no make-up. After he leaves, his model starts to cry.
The army woman is wearing a uniform.
Sandro's swimsuit has a camel toe situation. Yikes. How can he not lose?
And now off to the runway...
COMMERCIAL #4
Part of their prize is a year's supply of water. They actually get A LOT of prizes - over half a million dollars worth.
Zac Posen is back as a judge (No more Michael Kors??) Nina is there, and Kate Bosworth is the guest Judge. Tim gets to be a judge kind of, but not really. He just gets to save one person. The runway will also be anonymous this year so the judges will not know who designed which look until after they have graded them.
The show begins and first up is Sue the pleater. It's OK. Nina is smiling.
I really like Brandon "Modern Dancer"'s wind-inspired look. It is short with a long train:

| Braidon |
Jeremy is the name of the guy who has kids. He did what looks like track/hiking pants and a white T-Shirt.
Kahindo has not stood out to me so far, but I kind of like her pleated purple and pink skirt.
Sandro's model is covering her crotch with her hands and some fringe stuff, but, yeah.
The designer with the tattoos has an ugly wrinkly butterfly looking dress thing.
Alexandria's colorblock dress is next. Then Karen's stripy moo-moo thing.
Timothy's model does not really so the performance/choreography. She doesn't even sniff her armpit, so he is pretty disappointed.
Justin (the deaf guy) has constructed his dress pretty well, but I think it's sort of boring:
 |
| Justin |
Kate's dress looks like a sexualized apron to me, not a "sexy princess" as she puts it.
Angela's short raincoat.
Alexander's diamond dress looks great coming out, but starts to ride up a little in the front. This should not be a problem at all since Sandro's model's vagina was out and all.
 |
| Alexander |
Feather Earrings is named Dom. Her look has a jacket. It's OK.
Ken has a ruffley orange dress. It's actually cute, so I was wrong to guess he would be the first one voted off. Heidi smiled.

Miranda (army) has a really so-so looking dress considering she made it out of fabric instead of a parachute
.
JUDGING
Now they know who made which garment. She calls Angela, Sue, Miranda, Brandon (I think his name might be Braidon), Sandro, and Timothy as the high and low six. Sandro should probably go, but I think Miranda will be the one out. We'll see!
COMMERCIAL #5
They don't like Timothy. Why is he wearing sparkly high heels and his model is barefoot (also, her hair looks bad. I feel bad for her).
They all like Sue.
Nina likes Miranda, but is disappointed she used the black fabric - Heidi has a huge problem with it. It looks like she is going to skate by, though.
They don't like Angela's because it's missing a bottom (no pants, skirt or anything). Nina calls it a disposable poncho. I think she will be out.
They like Braiden's. Heidi "really really" likes it. It's my favorite of the six they picked.
Sandro explains his inspiration - something about "early twentieth century" but Zac calls her a slutty cat toy. "NOW I understand" says Sandro. Heidi mentions the taste level, but it looks like he is safe. Now that I think about it, the idea to make swimwear out of parachute material is actually very clever.
New this season, Tim comes out with the six models so the judges can get a closer look! That is VERY different! This part of the show is going on too long. Tim says he would give Miranda an F for using that black fabric - he is right.
COMMERCIAL #6 (those new Mr. Clean commercials freak me out)
The winner is Braiden! Hooray for Alexander's roomie. He gets immunity.
And it's down to Timothy and Angela. They've got to keep Timothy just for how much interest he adds to the show. And they do.
That means Angela is out.
I'll see you next week when we will get to see them using their bank accounts, etc. Coming up this season: Someone is missing! Boobs! Camping! A foaming vagina! Stay tuned.
