Project Runway : Designs for the Designers

Did anyone catch last night’s Project Runway? The 5 remaining designers had to design an outfit for another one of the 5 designers. Daniel for Chloe, Kara for Santino, Santino for Kara, Nick for Daniel and Chloe for Nick. Chloe’s design for Nick was fabulous. It was a pinned-striped pant suit with a vest that had a pink back. Paired with one of those chain wallets, he looked fantastic, especially for her first attempt at menwear. Chloe won the challenge and rightfully so.
Nick & Santino came in last place tonight. The judges thought the suit Nick made for Daniel was too feminine. I thought he looked good, but then again my idea of fashion is questionable at best. Santino made Kara a one piece jumpsuit that she not only felt self conscious in, but was literally falling apart on the runway.

In the end, Nick went home, and Santino was saved, yet again. I don’t know the what the hell the producers are thinking by keeping Santino. Does he have pictures of them naked or something. Week after week his designs are not only ill-fitting but ill conceived. Is Santino being saved every week because he made one or two outfits way back in the beginning? I just don’t get it.
