Congratulations to Jeffrey Sebelia for winning Season 3 of Project Runway! Jeffrey‘s winning runway collection was inspired by Japanese demons and ghost stories.

Rather interesting challenge this week… Project Runway designers had to create a look for an "everyday woman" but not for their regular models… for their mothers and sisters (not their own). Above are the designer match-ups!

I’m not crazy about wild prints but Uli‘s designs keep impressing me week after week.  My Project Runway favorites are being picked off week after week.  First Keith, last week was Alison, and this week was Robert!  I just might have to root for Uli now…  More pictures in the gallery!

AUF’D :: Robert Best
WINNER :: Vincent Libretti

Oh crappity crap crap crap! Is Angela turning over a new leaf or what?  Since when did she learn to make such a nice dress?  It seems she learned a bit of restraint from her time with Laura and Michael from last week…

So this week, the Project Runway 2 designers modernize a fashion icon their models chose.  Here were the match-ups I mentioned last week: Angela & Audrey Hepburn, Michael & Pam Grier, Robert & Jackie O, Jeffrey & Madonna, Kayne & Marilyn Monroe, Uli & Diana Ross, Vincent & Twiggy, Alison & Farrah Fawcett, Laura & Katherine Hepburn, and Bradley & Cher. My favorites were Michael, Angela, and Laura‘s but check out everyone’s designs in the gallery!

And since I’m rooting for Robert Best to win, I must say: STOP MAKING BORING DESIGNS.  [/end rant]  The preview for next week shows the designers wearing boots in New Jersey.  Could they be at a garbage dump?  Landfill? Possibly being forced to make use of new materials, like recyclables?

AUF’D :: Bradley Baumkirchner
WINNER :: Michael Knight

The Project Runway 2 designers this week had to create a three piece outfit for Macy’s private label sportswear line, I.N.C. International Concepts (the label the winner gets an internship with after the show). 

Somehow by the grace of God, Angela Keslar, with the help of Laura and Michael, knocked it out of this park this week and won this week’s challenge (her design is on the left). She even finagled her signature rosettes into her design!  But dang it!  Does Angela have immunity next week? AUGH.  Macy’s is selling her outfit for $257…

Keith Michael was, as predicted, kicked off the show for having pattern-making books stowed away under his bed.  He was a team leader and left Alison and Jeffrey to "make it work" without him.  His design on the right made it to the top two this week. More pictures in the gallery!

AUF’D :: Bonnie Dominguez
WINNER :: Angela Keslar
