After last week's "Project Runway" hiatus, I sat down on my couch hoping that I could still remember everyone's name. Ping is gone, right? Oh, yes. Janeane went home last week, and Seth Aaron was the winner with that cool black and white jacket.
We are back at the Atlas Apartments. Everyone is very self-congratulatory that they've made it to the top ten. Jay gets particularly sassy and announces, "Top three, here I come, bitches." It sounds very uncomfortable coming from him, since he is usually so mild-mannered.
Tim marches everyone down to Michael Kors' store in Soho. No time is wasted announcing the challenge. The designers will be eschewing Mood Fabrics and instead will make their garments entirely out of materials they find in a hardware store. They also need to make an accessory to complement the apparel. This is going to be a riveting episode, I can tell. (I know. Tool puns are not good. I won't use any more, tempting though it is.)
Michael Kors pulls out every bad corporate-ism in the book, telling them to push the envelope, think outside the box, and be unconventional. I find this all a bit ironic, coming from a designer best known for classic, American basics.
