Project Runway, Season 3

Episode 1: Apartment Raid
Not surprised Stacy was voted to leave. She didn't know how to use the sewing machine and had problems . I loved Michael's white fluttery dress made from coffee filters.

Episode 2: Fit for a Queen
Challenge: Working in grps of 2. Malan got kicked out. For what reason, I don't remember.

Episode 3: Designer's Best Friend
Bradley's in trouble in this episode but he manages to skim into the next challenge by the hair of his chinny chin chin. Unfortunately, I don't understand why the judges thought Katherine should go. Her design was a bit on the simpler side but it was still adorable. I'm so surprised Angela & Vincent haven't been let go yet, especially Angela. So, I guess the lesson to be learned so far is that if your design is uninspiring and poorly constructed, it's a definite disqualifier; more than leaving the hems undone. I really like Alison Kelly, the dresses she designs and what she wears. It's so stylish. I also like the designs done by Uli, Laura, Michael, and Keith. The rest are ok. But I don't like Angela's stuff. Alison's design was very mod. The expression on Alison's face was very memorable when she heard that Uli was the winner for this challenge; it was very "What?! How could she have won? Mine was better vs hers" look. Uli's design (cheetah pattern lining another brown patterned fabric) was definitely more everyday wearable than Alison's (white jacket & dress w/ black tights & heels). Oh yeah, Vera Wang & Ivanka Trump were 2 of the 4 judges.

Episode 4: Designing a 3-pc outfit for INC
Challenge: working in grps of 3. What a surprise, Angela was chosen as 1 of the 4 team leaders. Last time she worked under Vincent and they came to heads; in the end, Angela didn't work on the dress at all since Vincent wouldn't let her touch it. Now, people are dreading that she would pick them to be on her team. The other team leaders are Keith (Alison & Jeffrey), Robert (Vincent & Kayne), and Bonnie (Uli & Bradley). Angela's teammates were Michael & Laura. Woo, now it looks like somebody's going to get kicked off the show Apparently, Keith has patternbooks & how-to books in his room & the contest rules stated that it is an immediate disqualification to have "helpers" like this. I wonder what's going to happen to Alison & Jeffrey if Keith gets kicked off.
