Challenge: Modernize the look of a fashion icon. Winner will be featured in a Tresemme (sp) Hair ad in Elle magazine.
Model Twist: the models got to choose the designers they wanted to work with and the icon, which wasn’t as “free-for-ally” as I thought it would be. No hair pulling or cussing one another out.
Bradley was the picked last for kickball by the models and his model got the last icon (she wasn’t pushy enough).
Designers = Icons
Laura – Katherine Hepburn (happy with this choice, of course she would be, it’s in her comfort zone, no creative muscle stretching here)
Angela – Audrey Hepburn (she said she’d make something sleek and sexy)
Vincent – Twiggy (“I’ll make bell-like sleeves” - anyone else throwing up in their mouth a little?)
Robert – Jackie O (“I’ll do a suit” – didn’t he learn anything from the last challenge?)
Kayne – Marilyn Monroe (he wanted to do a cross between Marilyn and Gwen Stefani)
Alison – Farah Fawcett (she said she wasn’t really familiar with her so her model filled her in)
Jeff – Madonna (he said he was fated to update a Madonna look)
Uli – Diana Ross (she approved the choice)
Michael – Pam Grier (he was super pumped)
Bradley – Cher (he was clueless, he didn’t even know who she was)
After many takes of the designers being the industrious bees they are, Bradley having shirt issues AGAIN, and Tim queen-beeing it, Runway Day arrives.
Safe:
Uli with her purply-mauve printed flowing gown (again with the flowy and loose boobies).
Laura with her extremely high-waisted Urkel inspired pants and big collared top (I thought it looked clean and well made, just not very original).
Alison with her plunging neckline top and ruffley skirt (not sure what to think about this, not really all that interesting but well made).
Jeff (aka The Neck) with his red and black strapless many layered confection (I liked it but would NEVER wear it).
Best 3:
Angela with square-necked plunging neckline black dress with her trademark puffs around the hem. The judges unanimously liked it and Heidi said she wanted it in every color. (I didn’t like it, I thought the mishmash of stripe-age was unflattering at best.)
Kayne with a black nudie dress. The judges thought it was “goth Marilyn” and the back was fabulous. (I didn’t like it. He did “update” the icon but my god, did anyone else think his putting together of the dress looked uneven and unflattering with the black wrinkles around butt and waist?)
Michael with a magenta top and bottom. The judges thought had a great cut, sexy, proportions of the shorts were perfect, and they loved the top and bottom together and separately. (I thought this was the best outfit. The neckline was plunging but not wide open, classy. And the shorts really did look professionally made and cute to boot.)
Worst 3:
Vincent with a plaid and black nightmare of a dress. The judges had issues with the pockets (gave me a flash back to the first show) and that he did Brady Bunch instead of Twiggy (right on there – why is he still in???)
Robert with a tan linen tie jacket and short skirt with a bruise colored top underneath. Judges said they do not see Jackie O, linen was not a good choice, boring, and old ladyish. They said “he’d have to wake them up to stay on the show”. (Apparently Robert didn’t learn from the last challenge. What happened to the “go crazy and dress Barbie” attitude? Barbie has some of the wildest outfits.)
Bradley with a “cheap Halloween costume” of a spacey silver top and tight white cameltoe pants. The judges said it was poorly made and not representative of Cher. (Cameltoe *heh heh heh* – they said cameltoe on camera several times. The public has now been educated on cameltoes.)
Winner = Michael – “color, proportions, make, and fit were perfect”. (I agree.)
Out = Bradley – “I made a tinkertoy and they kicked me out.” (I think he was out of his depth from the very beginning. All the shirt issues and ugly outfits.)
And now… time for Design Kindergarteners on the playground!

Jeff: You broke it. You take responsibility for it!
Angela: I didn’t break it.
Jeff: You did too!
Angela: I did not!
Jeff: Did too!
Angela: Did not! Shut up!

Laura: [to Jeff] What makes you think your shit don’t stink?
Jeff: [to Laura] You’re mean and frigid and weird!
Viewer’s advice to Jeff – just piss on the sewing machine of your choice already! Mark that territory!

I thought Kayne's dress was like some seventh grade sewing project. That seam in the front--crap. And the back? was he trying to make her butt look way bigger? He may be able to design, but he CAN NOT SEW!
In Designer Kindergarten--you left out the Shut Up! No, You Shut Up! My Fav.
What happened to the lovely light teal fabric Robert bought?! Michael was the star of this show -- he worked hard, voiced some reason during the sewing machine battle, knew when to take a risk and made an amazing outfit.
