Bargain Basement Bossy: The Project Runway Finale Countdown.
Only Christian, Jillian, and Rami remain. Any predictions?
Comments
I predict Jillian.
I picked Rami back when the show started, based soley on his draping style, but now that I see he's ALL ABOUT DRAPING, I don't think he'll win.
I think Christian has the most cohesive collection (there are spoilers all over teh intertubes since Bryant Park) and I thought for a while he'd be the hands-down winner.
But there's something about our favorite robot that makes me think she'll get the job done.
i predict that i will be seeing 'rent' that night.
but i hope that jillian wins.
but i also kind of hope christian wins, even though he annoys me in a danny noriega (on AI) kind of way.
basically, i'm just 1) glad that i'm getting the chance to take my little sisters to see rent, 2) hoping rami doesn't win and 3) really excited that i just got an email from bossy saying she's coming to MY TOWN! is it too early to break out the vodka?
Having seen the collections up for a while on Bravo's site, I think Jillian's got it. Christian is super young, and even if he doesn't win, he is going to be big, and I think everyone knows it. Rami's collection is honestly stunning but not revolutionary. Jillian, on the other hand, is full of surprises, and manages to have a collection that is cohesive without looking like variations on the same dress going down the runway twelve times.
Still, Rami has one or two dresses in his collection that kind of make me get tears in my eyes, they're that beautiful.
All I can say is, even though this has been a relatively drama-free season (and many people find that boring) this has been my favorite season because the designs have been so good.
Then again, I was the only person in the world who really loved Real World 4: London, so maybe I'm just into people getting along and doing cool stuff.
I want Christian to win because he's fun and from my area (geographically speaking) but I think Jillian will win and that's fine I guess. She's just a little blah, personally and I get tired of the 70s style. I'm not interested in Rami winning because I just think he can be sooo snotty. And his color choices? Weird.
Why was the model (in amber's link) wearing a "disguise my baby's bald head" headband? I confess, I didn't see anything below her face as I examined that monstrosity of a headpiece...So much talent does not equal so much taste! I love Christian, but I think Jillian will be the cop-out win.
I swear if Christian doesn't win my 6 year old fashionista daughter's head is going to explode! She LOVVVVVES him and the only way I can get her out of the house in the morning is to tell her that she looks cute and that Christian would totally love her look.
WTF??
How did this happen to me...the all-solids, khaki and black gap girl??

Yes, for the record Bossy likes Christian the most, but thinks Jillian will get it. And Rami? Drape, drape, blah, drape.

Bossy,
I know what you mean about the blah blah drape blah, but this is astonishingly beautiful, IMO, best work in the show for any designer:

I think it's going to be Christian. I do love him, but they do play him up to be the Wonder Boy of the cast. Can't wait for the finally!!!

i predict that bossy and everyone else reading this SHOULD DO SPOILER ALERTS IN THE FUTURE AND PUT TELLING/SPOILING INFORMATION BEHIND THE CUT. ARRGH.
we live in an age of TiVo people. please to guide yourself accordingly.

Can Bossy also stop talking about herself in the third person, please? Is very annoying.

Bossy's third person talking is her signature! Let Bossy do her thing.

Christian. That snotty, young drama queen. King. Queen. Whatevs. I thought that Jill-jill SHOULD win, though.
