I hate being spoiled. Last night I fell asleep before this came on. I wasn't worried because I was recording it. Unfortunately I woke up and the TV was on and I heard them all saying goodbye to



Robert.

So I was bummed going in. I love Robert.

So, Jeffrey was such a shit to Angela's mother. Also that dress was beyond bad. As bad as Angela's outfit was (and it was very bad), Jeffrey's was worse. Yes, Robert's was kind of dull, but at least it bore a resemblance to what the client wanted and she looked nice in it. Poor Angela's Mom looked as though she was wearing rags.

Vincent - it shoudn't have won because it suffered from Vincent syndrome. It was pretty (not my taste but I could see where you could like it), well made and it fit well. But it still suffered from the fact that Vincent sees things in two dimensions. It had that collar framing her face but it ended at her shoulders! She turned around and there was nothing. He never has any detail on the backs of his garments. That collar just ended, it didn't wrap around the back of the dress. I'm not even sure the belt went around the back.

Angela - please. What was she thinking? Baggy, all that fringe and slouchy fabric. What a mess.

Kayne - I think the judges were too harsh. He designed an every day outfit and it was cute. Maybe Michael's mother didn't want to show some skin. Given the conservative outfit she had on when we met her I tend to doubt she'd want that.

Michael - As ususal he did a great job but WTH was with that belt and that big loop sticking out the front?

Laura - This was a mis-step. Her stuff all has a very similar style because (as Robert pointed out last week) she designs for herself. What looks good on her did not look good on her model. I forget who she was designing for and apparently so did she.

Uli - Lovely outfit. The style was pretty much what you'd expect to see for a plus sized lady and I expect that that is why she didn't win. She uses fabrics better than anyone else on this show though.

It was painful to watch that exchange between Jeffrey and Angela's mother. What was he thinking? He was really cruel to her. I think he has super thin skin and when he feels hurt or offended he lashes out. Instead of seeing that she had doubts about the colour he took it as an attack on himself. This is his client and not only that, he had to know that she was going to be standing there on the runway and be asked about the dress.

So, had it been up to me I have no idea who I'd have had win. Probably Uli but maybe Michael. I tend to think Michael shot himself in the foot by choosing the thinnest model. Though given the nasty comments last week about Allison's model they might not have had the sense to realise the giving the win to the designer with the skinny model wouldn't go over very well. After all, anyone could design for Robert's sister.

The loser would have been Angela or Jeffrey. Probably Jeffrey as his looked badly made in addition to ugly. Hers just looked ugly.

I'm really going to miss Robert and seeing Robert and Kayne together.

I can't wait to listen to Tim's podcast on ths one!
