![]() ![]() They get in an argument, Ivy calls him “low-class” for using the F-word, and Michael C., emboldened no doubt by still being in the game, rightly goes off: “You’ve been nothing but a bitch to me for no reason I’ve done nothing to you….Be bitter all you want, okay, but I got here for a reason.” Ivy then pulls a round-robin, telling all of the other contestants that she “took one for the team” by calling out Michael C. (What, are the designers not allowed to use fabric tape either? Like EVERY OTHER DESIGNER on earth? Ridic.) challenge, fabric tape, and things that look like chicken cutlets and hold up boobs. It’s not entirely clear what he cheated on, but it had something to do with the dress from the Jackie O. “So Michael, how does it feel being almost to the end of the competition?” she asks in the sewing room - a seemingly innocent enough question which quickly devolves into accusations of cheating. ![]() Casanova only gets in one funny comment (regarding Michael C.’s orange and brown look, “It’s like a pum-kin pie of Tanksgiving wit a pecan pie on top”) before bitter Ivy goes on the warpath. correctly guesses, is “the people who all hate me.” And in waltz Valerie, Casanova, A.J., Peach, Michael D., and Ivy, who, inexplicably, is wearing a shirt with her name sewn on it (for fear, perhaps, that the viewing audience at home might have already forgotten who she was?). They’ll get 20 minutes to sketch, $200 more, and “extra help,” which, as Michael C. Um, brat attack much?Įven unshakable Gretchen feels derailed by “the whole Heidi debacle,” and Mondo says he is “blocking her out of my life.” (Heidi, not Gretchen - though that would make sense too.) So just when you think Heidi can’t piss off the designers any more, she tells them she wants to see two additional looks. “Maybe a little Yorkie can fit through that hole,” she quips, to which Mondo retorts, “Maybe I’ll dress my dog in it when I get home.” Heidi tells him there’s no reason to be rude, Mondo says he’s not being rude, he’s “being hurt,” and then goes off to sulk on the couches. Tim stands back, watching the sparks fly with that signature knitted brow, while Heidi then tries to squeeze her head through another of Mondo’s pieces. Mondo rolls his eyes, which Heidi calls him on, and things deteriorate from there. Heidi pulls the diminutive top off his dressform and forces it over her head in what is a bit of a Chris Farley in Tommy Boy fat man/little coat moment, and basically tells him it’s garbage. But it’s when Heidi trounces on Mondo’s crop top, which he insists is a size six, that things get ugly. After the designers “go go go” back to Parsons, as Tim says, Heidi pops into the workroom for a midway critique. And last night, we were pretty sure Mondo might. The one good thing, at least, with any Heidi-as-client challenge, is that she’s a total pain in the ass. Or in this week’s case, the kind of clothes you’d find wadded up in someone’s gym locker. ![]() Did we mention the stuff is boring? Really, we’d give anything at this point for a circus challenge, or a dumpster-diving challenge, or a “Here’s a warehouse full of roadkill and old textbooks - go!” challenge - anything to alleviate the show from the doldrums of reality retail. The line comprises boring sweatshirts, boring off the shoulder tops, boring yoga pants, and boring hoodies. The designers must create a look that would fit into her line, which will then be produced and sold exclusively on. (Remember when Bravo tried to make that spin-off TV show all about the PR models? Hahaha.) What they do care about is the challenge: This week, Heidi is the client (groan), and she’s got a new activewear line for New Balance to push. Heidi hits the runway, velvet bag in hand, and says the designers must change models, which means one girl will be eliminated. But last night’s drama really was trivial: Rumors involving Michael C., boob tape, and cheating were tossed around a briefly reinstated Ivy threw a temper tantrum, for which she was karmically punished (we’d like to imagine, anyway) with a sewing object to the eye and Gretchen, the least self-aware person in the history of not self-aware people, had the gall to complain to April of the recently dismissed Valerie that “It was always about what was going on in her head I need to focus on me sometimes, too!”īut let’s start at the beginning. After last week’s emotional rollercoaster of an episode (let’s hear it for Mondo, who told the world about his HIV-positive status and also won three challenges in a row - a Project Runway first!), any ensuing drama was bound to seem trivial by comparison. ![]()
