Project Runway - Bright Lights, Big City

Project Runway episode 3 rundown - Last week Suede won the challenge. The designers were told they were going to meet with Tim for a night on the town. Blayne called Tim - "Timlicious"...really. He is over the top. Robin Antin is going to get him. The designers head out in the rain to create a look for a night on the town inspired by New York City. Each team had a different location in the city and a hour to take photos.

Columbus Circle:
Suede, Daniel, Leanne & Jennifer
Time Square: Blayne, Keith, Stella & Kenley
New York Public Library:
Korto, Kelli & Joe
Greenwich Village:
Terri, Emily & Jerell

Stella has problems working the camera. That sponsor is going to be pissed. Keith isn't trying to make friends...and doesn't care what the rest of the team is doing on the street. Including walking in front of Stella's camera. She was already having enough problems. The designers have to pick one photo and get $100.00 to spend.

Once the designers got back to the workroom, Tim tells them that the winner will have immunity. Suede keeps referring to himself in the 3rd person. That just made me like him more. Stella's hammering gets on a few peoples nerves. She's the rock chick...she needed to put studs on her outfit. Blayne & Terri teach Tim to say "Holla at cha boy." Just wrong!! The day of the runway show, Keith's model had to dropout and was replaced. The guest judge was comedian/actor Sandra Bernhard. She wasn't referred to as a fashion icon but as a nightlife expert...ok I'll give them that. The top 3 designers were Kenley, Terri and Leanne. The bottom 3 designer were Keith, Emily and Jennifer. Michael said that Keith's dress looked like toilet paper caught in a wind storm. Nina said she had no comment for Emily's dress. Heidi said that Jennifer's dress was boring.

The winner of the challenge was Kenley (photo of winning dress-model
Shannone). I love her description of her design philosophy as being a "Modern Day Calender Girl." Kenley maybe my designer soul mate this season. Leanne's dress was my favorite of the night. Very cute!! The person going home this week was Emily. Check out the video recap at Bravotv.com.
