What happens when there's so much that crap is Who cares what What happens Hello and welcome to Watch Your Crappins, a podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about.

You also get access to our bonus episode this week. I don't know, we're probably just gonna chitchat. So who knows what it's gonna be. We already probably over-chitchatted

before we start recording this, now that I think about it. But we're gonna chitchat, we're gonna have some fun. And that's basically the big news, Ronnie. What's going on with you? Nothing I'm excited to be doing project runway. I can't believe it's episode eight and we haven't done a project runway yet this season. Crazy times. Well, it's sort of just like reappeared sort of out of nowhere. I mean, they did promote it,

but it was it emerged right in the middle of our crazy, crazy June where there was a million shows, a million reunions, Scandival was happening, we were touring all over the country, and I think we just didn't really have the ability to take it on. But then there's no excuse for July, to be honest. Well, it's like choices of shows, right, because we've got five a week, so, prologue, what should we choose, and we chose crappy lake? And I think we chose right for the most part just because Project Runway, you know, I don't know, it feels like Project Runway is always

where his crappy lake is more of a specialty thing that's like right now. But I still love watching Project Runway, always love it. Now of course we came back to do Project Runway when half the cast is gone. I mean, we've missed some great characters on this. Hester came back. What a crazy, what a crazy pants that girl is. She came back and so many of them have been so good. And so now it's not as character-y as it has been because half the people

are gone. And we came back on an episode that Nina's not here. I know. I need the buttons and the pocket. The pocket, I love the pocket, I love the color, I love the grommets. I don't know why there had to be a cuff there, but I loved everything else. But still love it. And you know, what can I say? Oh, and next week we have to cover it because we found out covering it this week that next week is the below deck episode.

With Countess Luann and K-Chastain as Gus Judges, so it's like literally, it's gonna be, like I don't even know what to do with myself. I feel so bad for the designers when they have to endure the Bravo challenge because like the whole season's all about Hi-ot, hi fashion, you know like Talking about great pedigrees of fashion houses and then for like one week. They have to slum it with Luann as like their guest judge and

dressing Gary and Daisy I know you have to make polyester uniforms for a boat. I know. How so? Everybody. Yeah, but we have to do that one. Here we are with Project Runway. This is a long ashto.

We should get into it. This episode is season 20, which is fucking nuts. It's called Unut Hems. Love that, love that pun. Also, I have to say one thing that always amuses me with the beginning of Project Runway is that one of the prizes is that you get this big thing from the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

And I just think that's such a funny, the CFDA, I think it's just so funny, because it really sounds like it's some superhero body, like government body, like, oh no, did you hear, there's been a fire, you must appeal to the council of fashion designers of America. I just, it's like so over the top. Council of fashion designers of America.

It really is, and they're doing this without a host now, which is weird. I like that host that they had. And instead of replacing her, yeah, I liked Carly. And instead of replacing her, now they have the judges say the lines, which is mostly Elaine, mostly Elaine does it. I don't need the judges to do it. I need a model. That's the point of project runway. You can't just change the formula up on me, you guys. Yeah. But I do like that they give them them they give the judges more now. They're like fashion designer Elaine Welterrop journalist Probably Elaine as well and then fashion designer brand in what's his buns and then it just shows brand in trying to like

Smise. I don't know what he's doing, but it is the doughiest, most terrifying look I've ever seen. And I'm a doughy terrifying person. So this comes from a place of no, he's literally like gives the camera the scariest look and I was like, don't misbehave in that house. I bet the dog gets that look every time

he like makes a poo poo in the house. It's just a scary look. Don't let Brandon smies. Yeah, I advocate for a turn of a host. I think that would be great. So we started the episode, everyone's in the waiting room. What do they call it on project runways? You know, gone on top chef.

It's this new room. I can't remember what it's called. It was just called the waiting room, the backstage area. I don't know. Do they ever call it anything? What should it be called? Maybe the stitch room. The scrap pile. The stitch room.

Oh, the scrap pile. Scrap pile. They're awaiting the scrap pile. And Brandon comes out, because normally it's Christian who comes out to be like, sorry, someone went home, and I'm still more successful than all of you guys. So in this case, it was Brandon. And he's like, hey designers, well, Christian couldn't be here tonight.

So I just wanted to come in and I know tonight it was a tough one, but hey, do you guys drink back here? What, I kind of thought you guys would be more excited to see me. I mean, I am important too, right? You guys know. I'm excited. So anybody gonna offer me a drink or,

right before he comes in, we see a closeup of one of those dress model things, you know And it says right across the crotch. It says collapsible shoulder warning. I was like, what are we dating? Like I don't need to know this So you know about me. I've got a collapsible shoulder or so just a little bit of a warning. Before we do this, before you get into this crotch, are you gonna complain about my collapsing shoulder? Okay, because you're probably gonna have to pop it back into the socket. Okay, that's a fuck now.

So Brandon's like, okay, I just wanna talk to you guys, designer to designer, successful person to less successful person, established person to people who are still trying to make a name for themselves on reality TV. Cheers guys, cheers, Quares. Person who took an opportunity and built an industry out of it and people who have had multiple opportunities and are still here.

Okay. Person whose actual house has been turned into an iconic coffee brand to people who have no coffees attached to their last names. Could someone bring me some disgusting boxed wine that I will not be touching because I can afford better? Thank you. Thanks. So now I'm normally not back here, but I wanted to talk to Zyner, Dizza Zyner, guys.

You all have successful careers. LOL. I did say that out loud. I'm reading from the Q card. Hallelujah. Wow. I just want to reassure you guys. I am not here because of a truth

or dare I'm playing with Elaine. This is not a dare to mingle with you all. I am here for my own free will. Totally here because I want to be here. Now listen, this is the part where everybody gets tired, but listen, you have strength and you already have a legacy. I'm kidding, like I literally don't even follow any of you on Instagram. You know, this is the power everyone gets tired and I just say lean into it because if you're gonna look tired, you might as well feel tired, so be okay with it.

Goodbye old people, goodbye, goodbye current senior citizens. Enjoy your cheap wine, I'm not touching that, goodbye. And he just like immediately leaves and ramy, everyone on this show is so like, I your cheap wine, I'm not touching that. Goodbye. And he just like immediately leaves and Rami, everyone on this show is so like, I'm so blessed, because it's like the new style of Project Runway where everything has to be trauma and pain-based. Okay, that's like everything has to have a traumatic story. And Rami's like, thank you.

Thank you for your kind words, Brandon. Thank you. You don't need to fucking give him the prayer hands, Rami, for fuck kind words, Brandon. Thank you. Like, you don't need the fucking give him the prayer hands, ramen for fuck's sake, man. He didn't even have a sip of wine. Literally, all Brandon said was, you all have strength and you all have a legacy. Be proud of yourselves.

Ramen's like, wow, I am moved, I am touched. I think everyone here needed to hear those very trite words that may have been plagiarized for Home Arc reading card. Thank you so much. As a little boy growing up in Palestine, I never thought that would hear that from someone on the scrap pile.

It's like, okay, all right. Something could tell, it's like, it is good to see him as a real person. It's like the halfway point, and we're like, you know, like, we're just to hear him acknowledge that it makes me feel less crazy, you know what I mean? Friends like, uh, no, I contacted with me. Sorry. Sorry, Kato. Um, so, so now they're all wondering like, oh, what's the next challenge going to be? What do we think it's going to be? You know, it's going to be avant-garde and Kato to cause the dreaded client challenge. I'm like, oh, you just wait till next week, cut to that's the dreaded one.

And Romney's like, maybe it's Prince and then Christian pops up on the big screen TV and he's like, hello designers. Sorry, you can be there, but I'm out of town preparing something, especially just for you. Get some sleep because tomorrow you're going on a road trip. We leave it eight in the morning and you're leaving the city by losers Here's a hint you're going to a town that you will never ever be able to afford to live in Okay, losers enjoy your scraps. We have some still for some equities for you waiting at home You're gonna come to a town where you're not gonna connect with anybody Okay, and you will probably get the cut.

So see you tomorrow. You're going to a town where you will never find any clients because they're going to want something that's just, I don't know, actually successful in design or in higher end. Oh, um, Christian has really come out of his box, don't you think? I mean, why have you started really grown into his own heat? Yeah, he started coming out his second season. This is the third season, right? Is it just a third? I think it's the fourth. Well, there was no, this is the

fourth, because I think I came back to Brava with season 17. And season 17, he was like a little uneasy. That was when there was like this, there was some workroom that I hated. And he was like trying to be nice, trying to be like, I'm nice, I'm supportive. And then the next season, he was like, okay, bitches, I'm just gonna be me. And yeah, but now he's really comfortable

with showing his disgust for all these people. Yeah, and yeah, first he was just like, I like that, I really like the hell on that dress. And I was like, bad, you're terrible, that, um, I like that. I really like the, um, on that dress. And I was like, bad, you're terrible. That's such a really going with that. Seriously, goodbye. Bye. So, you really just leaned into, I'm a bitch, and I don't care.

Bye. Yeah. So, Rami thinks they're going to go glamping. But unfortunately for him, it's not that. The next day they wake up and they pile into vans and they go to the exciting realm of Connecticut, Greenwich Connecticut. Oh yeah. And there is a team, I like the kato called this out, that there is, part of them, half of them are like Tim Gunn people, right, because they're old school. And then the newer school are Christian people. And the newer school of people,

I guess it's some of the older people too, but there's definitely a group that's all about positivity all the time. I would call it toxic positivity. I think that's what this looks like. When everything that's announced, they're just like, well, yes, oh my God.

It's like it's a Gremitz Connecticut. Calm down. Like, what are you so excited for? You're taking a van to Connecticut. I would argue that it's probably not even the Tim Gunness of it all. It's probably the people who had to weather Michael Cours, berating them every week on the runway.

Because those people had to really, he was like, it's like P Polly Pocket went to an orgy. I miss that, don't you? Same. So Anna is the only one who knows that Christian's new store is in Connecticut. So she guesses it, because nobody else can really guess what it is.

Brittany spritzes her face for this, and then they go into a store and just start wooing and hooting and hollering. And I cannot believe he didn't kick them out of his store because I know. You know he's mortified. He's like, oh my God.

I personally was mortified for their big ass like Sprinter van pulling up and parking across like six different parking spots. I was like, excuse me, you still have to follow the parking rules and this lot, okay? So they go to the store and then he's like, hi, I'm so excited for you guys to be here. Welcome to my store, don't touch anything.

Do not touch. Okay, welcome to the store. It's just small and quaint, isn't it? And Rami's like, we were in the same season and it is crazy to see how his brand is evolved. Like, well, it's, he's rich as fuck. Just say that. Like, we were in the same place and now he's rich as fuck.

And I'm here doing the same thing again, trying to be a fraction as rich and successful as he is. Oh, it's great. I'm really happy right now. He's like, so this season we are here for denim. I just did a fab collab with Gloria Vanderbilt. I remember my mom wearing those jeans. They were iconic. And every major designer is going denim. Gavanshi, Telfar, Dolce, everybody else like Telfar.

She buys Sheree, Mommy Neem. She buys me a chain. That's so far. Is it? Yeah, it's a very good thing. The Rachel Ray Collection, denim. Have you ever seen a denim omelette pan? So, Christians, like, the timing is perfect

to bring back an old challenge. One that tortured me and you, Rami. Although, I guess we see who fared better, right? Anyway, I've got a store. Rami, where's your store? Anyway, don't answer that. Head to toe all denim challenges here. So they go back to a room full of jeans, denim.

He's like, you're a challenge. Designers, you're a challenge for the week. Create a high fashion look that shows the versatility of denim. The challenge is your face off head to head. Karassan, you won the last challenge, so you have an advantage. First choice of your enemy. Who do you want to murder? Who do you want to take down? Who are you going to be rate in turn to dust right in front of all of our eyes?

Kill them. No positivity. She's like, whoa, I can't wait. Rami, you do have the option to go head to head with the ghosts of your legacy from our season together. Okay. So she chooses Anna, which is cold. legacy from our season together, okay? So she chooses Anna, which is cold. But now everybody has to choose somebody to go against, right?

But Karisod choosing Anna, everyone's like, ah, that was mean. I mean, the whole episode, everyone who comes across them, it's like, so Anna, how do you feel about Karisod choosing to go against you? I'm awkward, right? Kerasan, listen, Kerasan was from season one. She is like, she has been through, she's got, she's been sitting around for all this time, not sitting around, she's been doing stuff, you know? But she's like, I'm 55 now, which by the way is crazy because she looks like she's

31. And she's like, I don't give a fuck about Anna. Okay. I have waited 20 years for my chance to do this again. I'm going to go for the weakest one. Yeah. I'm going for ruffles over there. And ruffles. And uh, Cara, Christians, like, go ahead, say who you think you can beat.

She's like, what do we have to say like that? He's like, yeah, well, it's expensive to be in my store. Chop, chop. Let's go. Hurry it up. So, yeah, then Karasal and Kufz's bullshit thing have like, well, I think you're strong at what you do. And so let's turn up and give everyone a great show.

I can be her. That's what I'm doing. I can beat her. So now, Brittany is next to choose. So Brittany chooses LaRence, which is a strange choice because LaRence is so good. And she's like, well, because LaRence specializes in leather, denim is not a structure and will give her, it will give me the upper hand. I was like, denim and leather are both like

stiffer materials that like, why would you ever think someone with leather would struggle with denim? I feel like they would go extremely structured. You don't go so well. I feel like someone who understands leather would understand denim. I thought this was the boldest choice out of everybody for Britney to choose to go up against Lorons. Like good luck, good luck. I immediately just assumed Britney was going home

because then in like all her confessionals, she had teary eyes. But then I remember that that's just how she does confessionals for some reason. Her eyes are just always teary in there. Yeah, she does. I think she's like allergic to her eyelash glue because I don't know that she's terribly emotional.

But yeah, I've noticed that too. She's always got allergies or something. She always looks like she just left the table to take a phone call and came back and just had terrible news But wants to act like everything is fine. Like, are you just seeing everything ever does, right? Because that's the girl who's always like, y'all, you will not believe what I just got phone call about. I mean, he's quite the traffic out there. Has anybody heard?

I mean, are you going to even drive in home? I'm not even going to drive home today because I heard the traffic is so bad. I'm just gonna stay here. I mean, might as well make a knot out of it. Anybody wanna go to dinner? I mean, this is just crazy. I feel like she's the one who brings awkward energy to the dinner table,

because she comes back and she's like, sorry everyone, so what is everyone talking about? I was like, are you okay, Brady? Everything's fine. Don't worry about me, it's fine. So tell me, well, how was your job? How was your work today? Could you please stop doing this? Please stop sniffling if everything's fine, that's fine. So tell me, well, how was your work today? Could you please stop doing, please stop sniffling

if everything's fine, it's fine. It's fine, it was totally fine phone call. So, Rami's next to Chius and he picks Kato to go up against, and I just said bold, we have these choices. And then Bischney and Prajee are the last two left, so they automatically go against each other, and they're close to each other, so they're sad that they have to go against each other.

Yeah. So they have a one day challenge, the winner will get $5,000, and they have to grab, they go in, they start grabbing denim, and they just clear out the store. They get all the denim. They were, I think in like two minutes,

they're able to take all that denim from those shelves and put them into basically faux IKEA bags. And especially ridiculous. She just clears the whole table into these bags that she can't even carry. And there are multiple bags that she has to drag across. Anna, take one. I mean, how many does it take to make a ruffle?

You know what I mean? Three, two pairs. But considering she's never worked with denim, it was probably smart choice for her to have some backup stuff. Go on on there. Come on shoes, here comes one right now. So they now go back to the work room and someone's like really excited about

grommet punchers, they're like, ooh, grommet punchers. And then there's bleach, there's all sorts of stuff to work with with the denim. Yes. So let's see, so Brittney's talking to Laurent that they're workspace, because they're all working at the same workspace too, which is weird, like the people facing off

against each other. So Britt's like, so Laurent, so you work with denim and she's like, yeah, I work with denim like I work with leather. She's, well, she is. Okay, well, didn't really think that one out, I guess. God traffic in my rhyme. Whoops. She's like, yeah, well, whatever Lawrence makes

is gonna be very hot, couture. So for this challenge, I just wanna make something that's really flattering to the body. You know, I want something that really shows off someone's body in the way that only a big puffer coat can. Am I right? I know. A slip dress with an ombre puffer coat. And somewhere in Paris. Somewhere in Paris, Margot, from real girlfriends in Paris, like did somebody say slip dress? Oh yeah, love this show. But I also love calling it a slip dress

because it's denim. Like who's gonna wear, it's like the least comfortable slip dress of all time. Seriously. So anyway, she's gonna do that. And then Anna is, so Laura's, wait, who's Laura? Laura's asked Anna how she's doing.

Who's she doing? Sorry, it's new recap, so it's like shortened names. I'm like, wait a minute. Laura, who's Laura? Who the fuck's Laura? Laura just called, Laura Ashley. The Laura Ashley has arrived. So Anna's like, she's basically like,

she's never worked with it ever before. And Karassan, meanwhile, she likes working with Denim and she does a lot of her projects using a lot of, she goes, I used to make a lot of cute little denim outfits for people and it's like cute little denim outfits. She's like, I'm screwed basically. She's a costumeer now. I wanna look up and see what stuff she's costumeed.

I'm curious. Karassan is. Yeah, she's a, she does a lot, I'm gonna look up her IMDB. She's a costume designer now. So that's why she's always like I do it for costumes and costumes are fashion Because I saw Marlene Marlene. She also gave up her fashion line to be like full doing full-time wardrobe departments. Huh, love it. Okay, so bread., oh no, we've already done that. So Anna, we get Anna's dark story.

She's like, I've never worked with this, but hopefully I get inspiration from the competition. And she's like, growing up, I just feel useless. I've always had a passion for fashion. So then I came to the US, and then I discovered my personality. I'm more authentic to myself than in China. Raffles have ridges.

I was like, oh my God, she's had such a great journey. So though, a fisherman, Projeer are talking, and they hate that they're facing off because they're like BFFs. And so Projee says that he's gonna make a race car track inspired jumpsuit, which is what I, that's the one I want. I'm like, guys, this app that I'm wearing, it should look like asphalt, okay?

Like this should take you to a place where a car has driven very quickly over me. But that was weird. I was like, are you gonna double line it, single line it? You're gonna have one dotted line and one you can't cross line, cause those are real fuckers. Those are real unfair.

What kind of pay me are you gonna go. What kind of pay do you gonna go? What kind of street are you? Yeah, well there be a pit. So, um, so then, um, Bishmi, who, Bishmi goes, he's like, I love creating textiles out of denim. Bishmi, let's be honest. You love creating Mickey Mouse ears

and putting them on anything everywhere. Did you, what happened to you at Disney World? That won't get out of your head. And why is everything you make a pair of Disney ears? Why? Everything you make? Everything, single thing? Oh, I can't.

At this point, I can't. I think he, most of his stuff is really good, but that's how our Mickey Mouse ears, you're a thing. Come on. Pish me so cute though, but I think it's because the way he talks, he sort of talks like me. He has sort of like an ear voice. A little bit, you know, he's like, so so.

I thought that I would make this like this because you'd be really cool. So he's going to do, he's always had this idea for like a faux fur made of denim. And so he's going to try that out and make like a jacket that's faux fur and put a mini dress under it. Yeah. And then Karassan is talking... She's basically she's saying... She's watching Anna work and she's like, so Anna's gonna use bleach and then it cuts to Anna and she's like,

well I've never used bleach before, but now that I've used it, I see that this blue can be white. So maybe I'll make a white denim piece. I was like, but you don't know how bleach is though? Like, do you ever even heard of bleach? She's like, I've never used it before, but it tastes great. It's like, Anna. Ha, ha, ha.

Ha, ha, ha. What? You don't know what bleach is. You're a fat, you're in your job. You're working with fabrics. You're a human who's over 14. I'm sorry, bleach. You need to know about bleach. Bleach scares the shit out of me.

I don't know how to go in your bleach. So she's going to turn all her, she's very proud of this realization that denim could be white, which is, I don't know if that's a novelty, I don't know if that's an innovation, but whatever. So and Prajé is excited to use the bleach because he's going to make graphic art. And he wants to show that that like art can be fashion and fashion can be art and art and fashion and art and fashion. And all these things, and I have to say,

I really had no idea that art could be fashion. What a crazy person. Guys, fashion is art already, okay? And Prussia, I don't love that he paints on everything. I don't like that either. That's your thing, you just paint on things. I don't love it. There's always a message. You know, it's always gotta have a mess. I don't want messages on my clothes. I want them like that either. Like that's your thing. You just paint on things. I don't love it. There's always a message.

You know, it's always gotta have a mess. I don't want messages on my clothes. I want them in my cookies. That's where a message is belong. And that's the only thing. In a hallmark movie or inside of my cookie, it's it. Well, yeah, yeah. There was like the episode where he was like,

I'm writing the number 43 to give everyone awareness that the 43rd president of Haiti is still not in a bench and it's like well that's a great message and everything but now you're doing like a race car thing so if you do 43 again it'll be like this is to remind you that my favorite driver is the one who drives car number 43 also sneaky 43 was Oprah's best age there I I'm on record as saying it. I love just completely undermining actually a very thoughtful message. Like, yes, do you?

It is. You know, it's nothing against the message. It's just the message in general, a message in general. Don't message. I want to, I just want close. You know what I mean? I don't want to have to wear a message. Give me a break.

So then Louran is talking about how this is so intense and she's like, I don't know what Brittany's thinking, coming up against me. I mean, you pick someone you can beat, right? Louross. I would kill to be, like I wanna be her. She's great. She just doesn't give a fuck.

Her confidence, her, just everything about her, like her pain, like that she her pain like that she I like that She's like here's what my pain is now get the fuck out of my way. She doesn't like wallow You know what I mean? Yeah, I'd explain it. There's a strength there that I'm and VSF there is like a very specific population That is described as women in their late 40s, 50s who are dropped

ed gorgeous with short hair who don't give a fuck. So it's like Lawrence, Annie Lennox, our friend Angie. Remember Angie? Angie saved her head? No, not Angie, not that Angie. Angie blonde Angie. Oh yeah, yeah, not Angie, not that Angie. Angie blonde Angie. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's really only three people that I can think of. But like, I'm daily. Just like, remember when she saved her head?

That's just sort of like, it's like your officer, like, women who are past a certain age where they don't give a fuck and they're dropped dead gorgeous and they're hair is short and their entire vibe is like, honestly, don't fuck with me. I'm not like what they judges are like. I didn't really like this, Laurent. And she's just like, mm-hmm. And they're like, but why just didn't Mike in? She's like, okay.

I like it. And you could have long hair. You could have long hair and be like that too. But there's something about the short-haired ones that they're just like, I'm like, oh, they just, they kind of figured out. They just know, they just know exactly what they're all about. I don't know why it is. I don't know why it is that they have just like, I'm like, oh, they just, they kind of figured out. They just know, they just know exactly what they're all about. I don't know why it is.

I don't know why it is that they have a short hair and why, I don't know if this is your age. This is like the ultimate fuck you. Like, I don't even fucking care. Like, I'm gonna go against every standard that has been set for me and be beautiful how I want, you know? Exactly. I mean, I'm not a woman.

Well, I'm not a woman, but on the subway, the first time I ever shaved my head when I was like, fuck it, I'm losing my hair, I'm not a woman. Well, I'm not a woman, but on the subway, the first time I ever shaved my head, when I was like, fuck it, I'm losing my hair, I'm gonna shave my head, which is obviously totally different, I get it. But there is a sense of bad ashery that comes with that. I was like, fuck everybody on this subway.

And of course, the minute I opened my mouth, it was like, hi, we've been in it. Like I was totally back in my life. I was like, you're ruining the paradigm. I know. Just sit there with your angry face, your bald head, and we'll think you're the biggest drug dealer in town. Anyway, that was my complete hot take

that probably has many holes in it. So Karate tells us, she's like, I know everyone wants a really juicy story for why I picked Anna, but I was not gonna pick my girl, Kato, or Laurence. And Anna has a very different style. Let's just put it that way. Because you know you can beat her.

You know you can beat her. That's why, that's all it is. Anna's underestimated though. They all underestimated Anna, and they all got on her a couple of weeks ago when she did do the ruffle thing. It's not even a ruffle. What would you call it?

It's like a ribbon ruffle, ribbon, I don't know which. Shredded, you'll know what you would call it, but they all got pissed off at her a couple of weeks ago. But they all still do their own things that they do off-dem, you know? They all have their trademarks. They all do, yeah. So Christian comes back to check in,

and he's like, oh my God, it's a denim explosion here. Oh, look at this area, it's so messy. Must be projects. Okay, Kato, what's going on over here? And it's like, I'm up against Ramy and I've been trying to sneak peek but he's not telling me anything about what he's doing, right, Ramy?

He's like, I'm in the zone over here. Prayer hands. Prayer hands everybody. Thank you for putting me in the zone. So she's showing this outer wear to Christian. And he's like, so is that gonna be like, what, a big coat, what is that? You know what would be cool to have a surprise.

That would be so cool. You know what people love surprises. Surprise, see? Good luck. Yeah, I think like if you had like a surprise, whatever that would be, otherwise this will probably be in the bottom three good luck Okay

So then he goes over to Rami I mean, he's like Rami feels like old time. So my god. I just want again. That's crazy So we literally did the same challenge to remember and he's like now I'm a judge and you're back doing the exact same challenge Isn't that so funny? do you remember? And he's like, now I'm a judge. And you're back doing the exact same challenge. Isn't that so funny? It's like, it's like quantum leap, except only one of us left back in time. And that would be you,

because you're solving the same thing. And I'm now much more advanced in my career. What a funny turn of events from me. Isn't that crazy? I'm like the leap and you're the frog. Which is crazy. So, it's like back to the future. But for me, it's like,

I don't think this is your future. I think you're just like back to the back, if that makes sense. So they talk about this challenge in their day, and then we see flesh back to their looks. And Rami is like, I did well then, and Denim is not scary, so I can work with that. I can do this.

And he wants to do a boostier in a jacket and Christians like I'm love love like you have to do this. I am dying right now. You must do this skirt. And he's like well I want I want to do structure of vest and then jacket and then like strips of denim. And Christians like this could win. This is so cool. This could be like something you've never experienced before. In other words, this could be a win.

This could be a win. So then he goes over to Anna and he asked to bend down to talk to her because she's on the ground. And he's like, hello, like what should I come down to the ground? Is that where I was supposed to be in the talk to this crazy person? Okay, I shouldn't have to deal with this. He hates Anna.

Every time he comes to Anna, she's like so loony tunes. He just keeps looking directly into the camera like seriously. I literally dress a lifters. Why am I crouching using my knee muscles? Okay, why am I using my knee muscles on this peasant? Okay. So he's like, oh, Lord, okay. So what's going on?

She's like, I've never worked with denim. She goes, oh, God. Well, first time for everything, a glute project runway in Ramy's case. Ha, ha. So she's saying that she's gonna bleach, and he's like, bleach. So the whole thing's gonna be splotchy and she goes, well, I'm gonna be the only one not blue. And he goes. Bleaching makes me nervous. Okay. It makes me nervous. She's like, but I want to do it. And he's like, are you sure? Do a test. Have you ever never used bleach your teeth? your butt, anywhere, bleach anywhere.

Hey, it's a whole different world, okay? Oh God, and Krishika's great. Well, you just wanna do it. You just wanna, you just wanna wing it. Sure, yeah, sounds great. Sounds like it'll really work out well for you. So then he goes to Cara's son, and she's doing a kind of fringe thing.

And he's like, so you're what? Just kind of cut fringe. So I mean, is there anything else you want to talk about feelings? Did you, why did you pick out Anna? Anna, did that hurt? Did that hurt? Why do you think Anna sucks so bad? I'll tell you my reasons after you go first.

Talking stick, you take it. Anna hates deck. You take it. Hey, her too. I hate her too. Sorry. She literally doesn't even understand what Bleaches. Okay, like even Romney knows that.

And Romney couldn't even win the season. So then she's talking about, Tara's talking about also potentially incorporating a cape. And she's like, what kind of cape? Oh, let me look around for your sketches. Oh, that's right, you don't sketch. Oh, wow, how's that working out for you as a designer, not on my level?

How's that working out for you, your lack of sketching? Hmm. She's smart, because she doesn't want to have to listen to Christians bullshit. You know, she's like, whoops, sorry, having nothing to show you today, you know? Yeah. So then, let's see, he's like, okay, people,

this is gonna be real tough, tough. I'm real scared here This is scary. So proje what is this the top of jeans that you're using because that's a lot of look That is a lot that is a look that's a lot a lot of look He's like, but I always give a lot of look. Yeah, but what part of my tone says you always giving a lot of look It's gonna work out well for you. Okay, the lot of look is my way of saying, this looks like shit right now. Okay, you gotta change it all. Huh.

And he's like, of course you're gonna do a demo jacket because that's what you do all the time. But maybe you could, I don't know, surprise, surprise. Was that fun? Was that fun for you? I don't know, I think it's surprises are fun. So maybe you should try that with the judges. How about this, how about this?

So I know you love doing that denim jacket because that's your thing. You always do a denim jacket. But what about, I've got a great idea. What about not a denim jacket? Like surprise, no denim jacket. And how about that? That seems like a good idea, right?

So then he goes to Bishmey and Bishmey's like, yeah, I want to do a faux fur from this jeans and Christians like that is a lot of work, but it looks beautiful. I hope you can get to that coat. Here's my thought. Can't wait to see how you make this look like a little kid wearing Mickey Mouse ears at a park. Okay, that's going to be fun for me. I, I, I, this is so inspired. I just, I really hope you get to that coat just in the same way that I hope Rami someday gets to understand what it's like to win this show. That's all I want for you. Oh my God. Poor Rami. It's either fall spring or summer because he can't have a season

even with winning it. He never really gets to wear a good coat. He's not even allowed into the win casino and Vegas and that's not even spelled the right way. So then LaRont Vegas and that's not even spelled the right way So then Lawrence and he's like well denim couture and one day challenge. Oh my god God and Brittany picked you that was smart Brittany Brittany so smart So Brittany what are you gonna do just making Basie a denim toga over there, huh? Okay. Uh, uh, uh. Uh, so, uh, Lourance is like, I'm shocked that Brittany chose me, but hey, I'm definitely gonna miss her. So then, Christian's like, okay, Brittany, so let's see what you're gonna do here.

Okay, you have a full dress. I don't know what dress that is though, because what I'm looking at right now is boring me so much. I've actually fallen asleep, and I'm talking in my sleep. I don't even know what I'm saying. Well, what I wanted to do is like something like Canadian in Canadian Dan in a park,

or like if a denim Dan was CEO of a park, I don't know any park. I think that I'm referencing. What is it? So I think that Brittany is trying to reference Beyonce's brand and the fact that she's even trying to bring Beyonce into this conversation.

It's literally making me want to quit this show right now. I can't do this anymore. Why did I agree to this? Wait, so what did she say? Cause I couldn't understand what she was saying. She said it's like Canadian Ivy Park, because Ivy Park is Beyonce's brand. Oh, I mean, I mean,

Canadian Tuxedo. Oh my God. And then she said it's as if denim dan was the CEO of Ivy Park. She basically tried to mention Ivy Park a lot to get some sort of Beyonce legitimacy onto her design. Oh, no. No, Britt.

No, no. And so he's like, what are you nuts out of all the things you can make you're gonna make this like a boring dress? I mean, you can get this anywhere. Get outta here, Britney. She's like, God, bear my hand. She's like, okay, no, it's fine, everything's fine.

So how's your day? So then, Christian's like, okay, it has to be drama, okay okay cuz you know that Lawrence is gonna be perfectly sewn I mean only an idiot picks Lawrence am I right? Oh, that's right you pick Lawrence anyway good luck to you I don't know I'm making him Southern but just sort of took over Cuz he's a Britney station, so let's just what happened so He's like okay you guys have an hour to your girls come and total three hours, bye. So he leaves and then Laurence is like,

how did it go idiot? Idiot who chose me? How'd that go? And she's like, oh great, she's like, I have to change it. You know how that goes? I have to change everything. You're hating everything.

Where are I going for me? Yeah, so she's like, you know, I realize, I have all these jeans that have hams on them and the hams have stripes. And I think the judges would be impressed because I'm gonna create my own textile. So I'm just gonna push it and I know I'm gonna make something spectacular.

Brittany, I have to say is another one that's kind of underestimated. I think she's underestimated because she does like super girly things and because she turned into a Peloton designer, which I thought was such an odd story. Did you see that one? I did not see that.

She's a Peloton designer. Yes. So she got, did she have a stroke? She had a stroke or something happened where she was paralyzed and she was in the hospital and the way that she recovered was she slowly started recovering doing physical therapy on a peloton, basically. And she started reaching out to the people on there and she's like the number one peloton closed designer, like all the peloton people wear her clothes.

Because they turn out a lot of clothes, because when you do Peloton, you see they're always wearing different clothes during all the workouts. And I'm like, wow, how big is their merch department? They are just constantly coming out with new clothes. So that is so cool that that's Brittany who does it. I've always really like Brittany.

That's cool. Yeah, I just want to talk to you. I thought so too. But she does like real girly. And then I think she's also kind of looked over because she's a goofball like her personality just seems like she would be a princess and then her, she does like peloton stuff.

So they always kind of look her over. Sometimes she fails miserably but I think for the most part she does really cool stuff. Yeah, I mean obviously all the designers are really good. They are actually not to all lives matter in your commentary like well they're all good Ronnie. But no I agree with you. She's really good. They are actually not to all lives matter your commentary like well they're all good Ronnie but no I agree with you she's really good. I really love to run her for a season and yeah so anyway she's hot now she's wearing a sweater during this challenge and she's like does anyone have a dent does anyone have like a anyone have like a denim shirt that they pull from you to wear I'm boiling hot so Kato gives her like a t-shirt and she's like, oh my god, I love this t-shirt.

Look at the t-shirt. It says rule number one. Don't play with nobody. Rule number two. Don't let nobody play with you. The end. Oh god, this will be a great Peloton edition. edition. So, model time! So, the model is coming and he loves the friend. He's loving Bishmese friends. And Bishmese is like, I don't know, I might have like turned

this into like a crop jacket or something like that. He's like, or you could do it to the floor. Bishmin's like, or I could do Mickey Mouse ears. So my God, for fuck's sake. And just to elaborate, when I say the floor, that's another way you could say that is, where Rammy's career is compared to mine. Okay.

So they've only got five minutes, Bishmuse Ketting, the French, Brittany's running around like crazy. Kato is all pins, her outfits all pins because she wants to do a fit before she does all that crazy sewing, which is smart, but also might I add, expert pinning, ma'am.

I mean, my god. She's a great pinner. That was so, that's incredible. It's like watching the Lego show. That is a ton of pins in like perfectly straight lines. I don't know how the models get in and out of those clothes with so many pins in them though. I would, I feel like I would turn into a hell razor.

So now it's time for some bleaching. So Kato is doing, she's gonna do sort of like a tie dye effect. It's like tie dye adjacent for us to create sort of a starburst look. And she talks about this is a technique that's used a lot in Liberia. And she likes this is her way of adding some African culture into her looks because that's something that she always loves to do, which is really cool. So then outside, so she sees Anna because I have to go outside to do the bleaching. And so Anna's out there with her whole outfit leg out there. She's being bleached.

Anna's like, just like, just rolling around and trying to really understand what this bleached thing is all about. So I think it's so weird. I think it looks really pretty. I am missing all of my back skin. But so it could tell it's like, so you know that when you use this, like this is gonna burn the model,

like it's lethal, you have to rinse it after. And she's like, really? She goes, yeah, you have to rinse it. She goes, oh no. So then we see Kato goes inside and rinses her out, you know, which was a big deal. She told you in time, why don't you just take it right inside and rinse it out?

I'm confused exactly everyone who's using bleach has like latex gloves on and I was just sitting there with bare hands Just like dabbing it. I was like Could someone for production just help her. I'm sorry. This is like a health issue at this point So now they go to I guess their hotel where they have like an ice cream Yeah, ice cream party for the fashion is does. And Rami is like, you know ice cream is the nice way to take our minds off of exhaustion of the exhaustion of a sweaty one day challenge. Yeah, it's also a good way to take your mind off of the fact that you are really still

just like not anywhere near my, me and my career. Sorry, I really should not have come to this ice cream party. I'm just here to make Ramy feel bad. I'm gonna go now. Can we order Ramy a banana split before I did because I'm the winner and he had to go home first. Thank you. Thank you.

Yeah, could we order Ramy some cherry Garcia, you know, in honor of Jerry Garcia who passed away much like Ramy's career. Okay. Thanks. So Lerence is checking on. I couldn't think of any. I was like, I was like, oh shit. I'm doing a yes and on an ice cream flavor. I don't know where to take this. Rocky Road. That's a great explanation for Rami's career. So Lerence is checking on Anna because Anna's freaked out, right?

And she's being really nice to her. And it's like, you know, the construction's done, but I bleached the whole thing. And Leross is like, and did you rinse it after you bleached it? No, because I didn't know until the end. Anna, you knew in time to bleach it. And we saw it on camera, you could do it. And they're telling her, proJays is like, yeah, but if you put that on a model,

it's gonna burn her in court. And Kato's like, yeah, like then to have to breathe that, like that's not good. And proJays is like, yeah, I don't wanna be a part of this. So Anna's like, fine, I'll just make the whole thing again.

I'll start from the very beginning, you know? Yeah, so, that's, I'm like, why did you just, just put it in the faucet. Okay, so now it's the next morning. It's five hours the runway show, Anna's starting all the way over. She's just gonna do it like five hours really quickly. Which at first I was like, that's crazy, but they had seven hours a day before.

So theoretically it's, yeah. But why couldn't they, why couldn't you wash it once you got there the next day? Put it in the washing machine and dry it. If the construction's done, what the hell? But I think denim, you know, denim when it comes out that dry machine

is always like a little tighter and smaller. I don't know. I really don't know. But what I would have done is I would have rinsed it, done the, put it in the drying machine, and while that happens, you work on a backup one, and then if it comes out of the dryer, like perfectly fine, then you're good to go, you know? Yeah, something. But this, this was just crazy. That's me salsa. So, but also she's kind of invigorated

by having to redo it in five hours, you know, because that is kind of badass to be like, I made that bad habit. So she does that. Kato's die job looks amazing. It looks so good. And then we go to Rami and he's like like I learned to draw and oh, sorry, go ahead I just want to say one thing. I'm not she and I tell Sasha's I believe in myself. I'm a mom

I can make a baby. I can make this dress. I'm not changing my concept like wait So you have a baby, but you don't understand about bleach. Please Please educate yourself. Uh, uh, uh, uh, I just wish my baby had more white clothes, and now I know how to do it. If you just hear baby scream, off-screen, please. So, uh, Rami's like, I learned to draw inspiration from moments in my childhood. My sister had a jumpsuit that I loved. I was like, wow, great story, is that it? You know, and I got my inspiration, it was after I won Project Runway.

What about you, Rami? Really did she use that jumpway to run away from you, because you were such a smelly loser after losing to me. Wow, your sister's your inspiration. My inspiration is every a-list female I've dressed. So they have three hours left and let's see. So he goes to check on Anna. And Anna's like, I didn't know I had to wash it so I made the whole thing again.

And he's like, what? She goes, I've never touched bleach in my life. I mean, she goes, trust me, she goes, oh, I trust you. Bye. Wow, starting it over, sounds like a recipe for failure. Bye. I love him. He says something skating and then just goes, bye.

So then cut her hose. Well, I'm glad I washed mine off. Shots fired. sorry, sorry. And I'm just a little, just a little jockey joke at your expense to make you feel bad, sorry. So then, Britt me is not done. And she's, she's like, are you done? She's like, I wouldn't be here if I was done.

Cause she's like sewing really quickly. And he's like, wow, a lot of tension in this room. Jeez, sorry. She's like, I can take it from Cody Rigsby, but I will not take it from you. Wow, wow, that was rougher than Rami having to come to terms with his career being just absolute shit after not winning. Kai, you lost your temper almost as hard as Rami

lost this whole competition. We're gonna be going to the Tressa Maceame Salon not to be confused to the motto that Rami tells himself try someday, try someday. So let's see. Heron makeup, Brittney is like, well, I'm proud of my look, but my downfall is that I picked the best denim craftsman in the world. And then we see LaRonce's, which is just stunningly good. Like it is great. And she's like, Britney's looks cute. I mean, how many puffer jackets are we going to make on this season? You know, I came for blood. And moreiletics comes over and gives her high five My short-haired queen from one short-haired queen to another so then Rami is like

She's like you know, I'm not sure how the judges are going to perceive the looks I mean Kato's is conservative mine is more edgy and like my sister so it's not a read just an observation You know, I like doing things for my childhood. I remember having cereal once. I'm gonna eat cereal now, excuse me. God, my sister loved honeycombs. So I too, she'll love honeycombs. Just in fact, you know what,

my next dress is gonna look like a whole bunch of honeycombs pasted together, just like my sister. So, Kato's like, oh, I'm very competitive. I beat my kids at games. I go for the jugular, I was like, yes, I love it. She never lets her kids feel good about anything. She's like, I wanna get it, you fucking idiots. Good luck with your fucking longest road.

Guess what, it's shortest road. Now bitch, I just added two sections. Mm-hmm. Oh,, I just added two sections. Mm. Oh, so I love the Earth kids, are like the smartest kids in the world. They're playing fucking settlers. You're five. So now it's the runway show.

And hello fashion, hello designers. So Nina Garcia is gone. And in her place is award-winning fashion design and expert in denim and catalyst for the evolving fashion scene It's cherry Jones with the mustache will each chaf area Tell me that's not right, tell me that's not right because it was chair I'm like that was cherry Jones in disguise everyone. That was cherry Jones doing drag guys everyone that was cherry Jones doing drag. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh that we don't really understand why. And she goes viral just by dating Kanye West. New York City. For two very own. She goes viral just for going to the grocery store.

New York City's own Julia Fox. And Julia's like, oh my God, love you guys. Star-struck. Literally star-struck right now. I have to say, I have not had a lot of exposure to Julia Fox. I've seen like, obviously like her Kanye West moment,

I saw pictures and I've seen a lot of pull quotes, but I haven't actually watched her do a lot of interviews or anything. This is my first time really being exposed to her talking. I haven't seen a lot of her work because honestly her IMDB is not really as long as even Heather DeBros. So this is my, let's be honest,

even Heather DeBros has a bigger IMDB than Julia Fox. But I was like, I was expecting her to be so crazy and I was like, oh, she seems like really cool. I was like, I like her. I was like, I could be pretty good. She is actually really cool. She was great. You're right, she doesn't have a whole lot on here. I'm looking at an uncut gems.

Hence the name uncut hymns. But like, I was like, I thought she was gonna be like totally pretentious and totally ridiculous. And she's like, oh, hi, how's it going? Oh my God, I'm totally star shark right now. This is so cool. I actually saw on cut gems, what she was really good in. And then I saw her on what happens live

and really liked her, even though we disagree on literally every housewife there is. But she was super funny on that. But yeah, I don't know much about her either, but she was great on this. She was really, really funny. I mean, so do her. I love my show that I would say, if you're not too busy, which no offense doesn't really look like you are, I would hop on this show as the new Carly.

Why not? She would be hilarious. Oh, of course. And she could judge. Like, she could host, be really funny as a host. And she could also judge with them, like Pat Ma from Top Chef. Yeah, I was really worried that you were gonna say, if you're not too busy, Ben, you should watch Uncut Gems.

Sounds gonna be like, absolutely not. That is a very stressful movie. I hate when Adam Sandler's like, But I'm also an actor. Like, I guess what? I'm also exhausted by you. Click. But I watch all the thing. I literally hate when comedians are like, take me seriously now. And I don't mind a

serious turn from a comedian, but I hate when they're like a really self-consciously serious turn where it's like, look, I'm a comedian, but I have feelings. So I'm going to be serious right now. I'm going to lie in a bed and stare at the ceiling. But it's also a dramatic movie, but he's very just an Adam Sandler character in it. It's just there's not like obvious punchlines, you know what I mean? So it was that much of a stretch. Okay, Uncut James was a long time ago. We are gonna stop our weird review of it. Okay, so, um, Elaine is like, this is stressing me out, guys. I can't imagine how you must feel. I'm hoping traumatized and ready to tell a sad story because I'm ready to see some sad stories walk

down the runway right now. Now this is a trauma. Now one thing that I love about Project Runway, really more so than most of the talent shows is it's really one that we as the audience can judge along. We can only judge food on top chef so much. We can't taste it, but with fashion we can see.

And my favorite part is that I always state on this show, I'm really not a fashion gay. And it's never more apparent than during Project Runway and how my takes are almost are so far off from everyone. And I'm so bad at judging this show. And it's hilarious reading the things I wrote down, my initial impressions, and then seeing what the judges ultimately say. I'm wrong pretty much all the time. Like on every opinion I have is completely opposite. And also I have to say, some of the challenges this season have been so crazy

that nothing's good. Like there have been a couple where I'm like, this is just, this is not terrible. Like let's be honest. And I think because the challenges have just been so out of whack, because they're talented designers. But then they're like, oh my God, I love that one.

And I just don't, you know? Yeah, there's some things I do feel, there's certain things where I'm like, okay, no, that looks great. And something's like, that looks crazy. But it's more like the mid-pack stuff. I'm like, yeah, that looks good. Well, that looks bad and I get that all wrong.

So we start with Prajé and I did not like this one. I'm proud to say I did not like this one because I was like, I thought it was cool what he did with all the tops of the jeans. He basically took all the tops of jeans where like the belt loops are and he put them together to make kind of like an overall, it looks sort of like overalls. But the styling was really bad.

I thought it looked like a trashy lady at the mall. It was, yeah, I thought the idea was cool and it was like a lot of work. Like you could see that there was a lot of work there, but it's not flattering on the model. It looks really bad. And then he did these like kind of star trek shoulder type things. I don't know how to explain them that looks barely so dawn right. And it was a mess.

And the hair was sort of like put up in this kind of like Midwestern bob kind of way. And I was like, oh, this looks just all wrong. And he even says he's like, I hope they see the labor. And I'm like, well, yeah, I mean, it looks like it took a long time to do, but, you know. Yeah, I mean, I was not a fan. Yeah, I'm not a fan of that one. So then, Bish, my least favorite.

And then, Bish, me did kind of a simple mini skirt dress with the jacket fringe thing, the denim fringe. And I wrote that the jacket was super cute, but the dress is really boring fringe thing, the denim fringe. And I wrote that the jacket was super cute, but the dress is really boring. I felt the same way. I thought the jacket was so cool. And the dress, I was like, I mean, the dress looks like it was made well, but it's sort of like, blue blob in the best way. It was like a nice blob. It was like a very well tailored fashion blob.

It was sort of like cinched right, but it had like the tie-dye moments on it with like a peekaboo in the middle, like that sort of opened up a little bit and you could see some skin. And it looks very cool, you know? Yeah, I think hers was great. And she also used a really dark denim, which I thought looked really good with the tie dye. What's really tie dyed was it?

It was just, it was done in sort of a really neat pattern. I don't know, I love it. There was actually a specific term that she used that was from Liberia, but I didn't write it down, at least not here, but it was really cool. And it was also something I could really see someone wearing to like a party. Yeah.

So then Rami did, I thought, see, now this is where I'm at. I liked Rami. I have no taste because I liked Rami's. I thought it was cool. Same. I was like, oh, how cool. This looks great. I love it. It was like all these straps of denim over a mini skirt

and like sort of a crop top thing and it was like caged legs. I don't know, the cage came down to legs and then he did like a little crop top jacket vest thing with, I mean, I liked it, I thought it was good. I hear this my note, think he wins. So, I also was like, I think Rom is actually gonna beat Kato on this one.

Who's gonna have the chance? The only thing I didn't like about his was that the cage sort of extended above the skirt and was sort of like around the stomach and I felt like that was a little unflattering because it kind of made the stomach kind of bulge through a little bit. So I didn't like that part but I felt like that was a little unflattering because it kind of made the stomach kind of bulge through a little bit. So I didn't like that part, but I was like, oh, this was just sort of cool and it looked showed off the figure really nicely.

I was like, this is great. So then we go to Anna and she's like, oh, this is five hours of work that I did this in. And hers looks pretty cool too. So she took the top of jeans. She took the waistband of jeans as well, but like a couple of inches worth. And then she did rings of them.

And the rings were hanging off as a dress in like different angles. And I thought it looked really badass. I liked it. It was cooler than I thought it would be. You know what remind me of those IKEA lamps that I'm not sure they still sell. There was sort of like these tower lamps

that were had these square brackets and then had a papery outside, it looked like the Taipei 101 skyscraper, and it looked like one of those except falling apart. Oh, if that makes sense. You're smart of them, I just thought it looked like a slinky. I had had stairs. Yeah, it kind of had stairs, you know?

Yeah, I thought I had an interesting movement. It looked like it was all about to unravel in a way, not like cheap unravel. Like, oh no, it's barely holding together, but it had a movement sort of like, it was like, how is this all one dress, right? It had like an illusion of falling apart. Yeah, and then what is hard to walk in though?

What did Cherry Jones say? Did he say like that lip is not necessary? Oh, because she had chains. Yeah, the chains, she had like the face chains, it was like going from the nose to the ear to the, I don't know, a lot of chains. Yeah, so Cherry Jones didn't like that, but it did look really difficult to walk in.

It looked like the model was like sort of taking these little baby steps just to get down the runway. Yeah. And so then Karassan does a tight kind of halter dress with the button flies as the front going down, yeah, like a fringe. I thought that looked really cool too. And then she took all the belt loops and she made a lot of like belt loop details,

which I thought was really cool to you. Yeah, there was like cool stuff in it, but I hated that like floppy fringe in the front. Like it just sort of like flopped there. I don't know, it sort of looked, it's hard to describe it. I just, I don't know, it looked like a weird overgrown, you know, flower pot or something. I don't know, I just didn't, it was like a fabric mustache on the top of the dress, like I really didn't like it. So then LaRonce is next and LaRonce loves her Madonna

cone boobs. This is not the fur, I don't think this is the first time we've seen these from LaRonce, right? Like she just loves the cone boobs. I don't remember. Was it in the 90s challenge, did she do the cone boobs? Someone did the cone boobs. Yep, because they they were like we love this reference to Madonna maybe it was her yeah so anyway she loves them so this one is a gene it is it does look

mature and it's like a long dress but she does the cone boob's which are so pretty well because at first just like oh they're like pointing different directions because if you get the seam on those combs wrong, those combs wrong, you're in trouble because it'll look like a real housewife. You'll look like me in a t-shirt at a water park. Your booze is just going in different ways. And so she got them right.

They looked really good. So nice, that's a boob, Ames. I have to say. She did a great job. And I of course, I wrote down, I was like, oh, and there's shoulder spikes. I really like those shoulder spikes. They're so cool. Yeah, I didn't like the shoulder spike

or the puff of the shoulder. I didn't like that, but the rest of the dress I thought was really pretty. And Brittany, by the way, Brittany sitting next to Lawrence, was her watching and she goes, good job, mama, and it just doesn't say anything. Like, get your spirit forward.

I know, like stupid. Do not, don't think I'm gonna say the same thing. So then Britain is like, well, you know, there's button, oh, she's not talking. This is just what her outfit is. So she did like a tight skirt with a button fly coming up the front of it. And I thought that was cool. And then a puffer jacket. Now the jacket. I didn't like this vertical line of button

fly thing coming all the way down the front. I thought it was really cool to make that like the whole button fly. That's how you get in and out of it. I guess. I mean, I thought it was neat that she did like a frayed hem, like she took, that she took her boring dress and then found way something to make it interesting by putting the, all the hams, like lines of hams down it and then the phrase sort of gave it some sort of texture. I thought that was cool.

I actually love the puffer. I thought it was like a great puffer. I know she makes puffers all the time, but that being said, as like a one-off puffer, I was like, that's, I thought, that's a really super cool puffer. An ombre, multi-colored, what ombre is, I guess, but yeah, denim, I think it's really cool. Now, her dress, I like the thing coming up different.

It was a little like night walker, like street walker, the dress, but I like the coat. Okay, so she's like, this look is ever-a-thing, isn't it? And then Elaine's like, oh my God, both of those are so good. And Julie's like, that's a fat tough call. It's like a star. And then now, Bishmay and, oh, yeah, that was it, I guess.

That was it, applause. Yeah, you guys are so free. Yeah. So now everyone's up in the front and so the top four are Bishmay, Kato, Karasan and LaRons. They are the winners and the other four are in the bottom. So Bishmay, I don't know why. Bishmay is like Willie's like well, you know, I love what you did with the no fur and as long as I'm the president of this country We will do what I say when I say do you understand me keep us other land? As someone who is entertaining thoughts of selling my company to Kendall Roy.

I just want to say what you did with this faux fur is wonderful. Yeah, it's like we're living in a time without fur and this was a great replacement for fur. Okay, no, this is not a replacement for fur. This is some kind of fringy staff that he made by cutting the debt. Let's not call the... I wouldn't go so far as calling this a fer replacement.

That said, I'm glad that he won his round. I think it looks good. Yeah. Julius, I mean, I saw a jacket like this on the runway in Milan a month ago, which is my way of saying nice try, but I've seen this already, so in Milan like a month ago, which is my way of saying like, nice try, but I've seen this already. So I guess I'm a little bit cooler than you. So anyway, love it.

I love it so much. But I think I'm gonna get the Milan version, not your version. Okay, well my version of asking, how do you have all this money to be going to Milan and all these places all the time? That is my way of asking that question. Bishmay does, Bishmay doesn't even care. He's like, oh my God, I can't get enough of you. I love you. I love you. Oh my God. You're the best. Oh my God. Okay. Crazy. Can we get crazy off the jack? The runway, please. Thank you. So then let's see who's next there.

Kato. Kato is next. And so she talks about how she how she did tie dyed with rubber band, tie dyed with rubber bands and how the technique is from Liberia. And Brandon's like so many great details. The neck, the sleeve coming out of the sleeve. I mean, oh my god, where are those two sleeves? Like a little arm coming out of a bigger arm. My mother would have loved that. Wow, I would come closer to inspect it, but I think I already spent a little bit too much

time close to you guys earlier in this episode, so I'm just staying in my chair. So it really is like, I was just like blown away because it really doesn't even look like denim from this chair, which is cool. It's really cool. Oh my God, it's, it's bish me coming up to me for an autograph. This guy, can we get some security around me please? This is getting awkward now. And Kato's like, well, I did not like being on the bottom and I said I'm not giving another speech this week, okay?

This week I'm Rosa Parks and last week I was MLK. And they start laughing. It'll be like, I love that there's always a hint of your heritage. It just feels so elevated. What I really would have loved to see from the stress is more pain. Do you have any that you would like to share right now? So then we got our carousel and Brandon put carousel on the top because he just loved

the fit of it and Cherry Jones loved the craftsmanship and it really just came down to fit in construction and they just love it. Yeah. And so Elaine's like, well, in the end, the results were Anna, your fit was more forward. I could see Julia in that, but this one is more for every woman, which isn't how we're supposed to be judging this, but it is very intricately made. I just don't know what to do. I either want to be gonna cry.

I either want to really push it over the edge. Okay, whoever cries first gets to be the winner. We are allowed to take back, take C-Baxies. So now it's Lerence talking about Lerence. And Lerence wanted to do a gown because she hasn't given the, she hasn't done that yet. And Brynn's like, mm, the back. Let me see the back.

Oh, yes. Oh, this is great. I love the back. And Cherry Jones is like, listen, as someone who suffered through starring in Velma, I have to say that I really appreciate it as something a little bit more formal. Wow, the only person who did a real red carpet designer dress,

I mean amazing work. Yeah, I would, if I could go back in time and go to the premiere of Signs in 2002, I was in that film, thank you. I'll tell you what's assigned this dress. I would wear it if I could. My brand is like, but why the spikes? Oh my God, I mean, just, you know,

I love everything but the spikes. And Elaine's like, yeah, I agree, why the spikes? And Laurent's like, because they hurt. And Elaine's like, love the spikes, love the spikes. Literal pain. I'm normally looking for more emotional, but I'll take literal, I'll take it. I love that of course, like in like this beautiful

flawless dress, I love the thing that the judges hate. They're like, but why the spikes? I'm like, oh yeah, like spikes are totally bad. I'm like crossing out my nose. Like I never liked the spikes. You didn't see me write that down. Oh, so, yeah, but I like that we cop up to not knowing, you know? We're like, I said that was good away.

It's like the worst one on the runway. So then the losers are next. So Brittney's like, well, I started with a slip dress. It was just you plain. So then I just did like 20 different pairs of jeans. You guys, I'm not even kidding. It almost crushed me. And Julie like I love this like and I would love the horizontal without the vertical Like a lot of times it's not the clothes. It's the vibe and this vibe

Sold me like I'm not vibing with your dress right now Still put in the bottom, but I'm vibing with it So cherry Cherry Jones is like, you know, when I look at this through my eyes, much like the eyes of Tammy Faye, which I was in, thank you very much. I just, you know, my issue is that like I love the construction and I just wish there was more padding in the hood

to balance the jacket. So because you didn't put any stuffing in the back there, you might have to go home. Yeah, that was kind of weird when they showed it. That the puffer had just this real thin kind of throw on hood. I'm glad they caught that actually because that's not something that I caught,

but I have a puffer and the puffer has a hood. And the hood is like thin, it's just like thin. It's like a weird flimsy thin, like windbreaker material. And I'm like, this, why? I'm in a puffer. Why are you not giving me puffer hood? You know what you should do? Send your puffer home.

It's failed. Your puffer has failed. I would have to say to the puffer, you know what puffer? I love what you've done here, great construction, but you didn't sell me on the vibe and that's what you were supposed to do. You're more puffer vibe from this. So let's see, projets. I'm really hidden projets.

So, cherry jones is like, you know where this outfit, what? Listen, I can't even defend Jacob on this one. Okay. I'm just gonna have to say that the craftsmanship's amazing, but I just didn't like the silhouette. I mean, the back didn't need to be open like that. I need to be grabbed. And unfortunately, this did not grab me. Sorry.

Yeah. So, I lost my cherry Jones movies. I know it's like really hard to make uh, jokes about cherry, cherry, cherry, cherry, as the opposite effect of Julia Fox. She has actually a huge IMDB. So I, but it's like all stuff that's like heartish. It's like, you know what I thought? I thought, wow, the cradle will rock when they see this outfit. So Julia's like, maybe if it was just like the pants and not the brawlet, I would wear it. And Elaine's like, I mean, the caged booties. I didn't feel, it just didn't feel flattering

on your model and you have to highlight the best of the body you're working with and you have a beautiful body, okay? And so thank you. You're beautiful. I mean, even though it looks like you're trying to get to a synabon right now with the Dan Berry Fair Mall, your body is beautiful, okay? It's not your fault, it's the outfits look. Yeah, so then Anna's like, okay,

this is the first time I've ever done denim and I only had five hours for this because I bleached it, but I didn't have time to wash it. Which washing takes much time, plus time to make a whole new outfit. Yes, now I've already said that, can't let it go. Can't let it go. Seriously.

So they didn't like the styling, they didn't like the change, the silver booties, and all that stuff. But Elaine's like, but I appreciate the vision and the vibe. I'm just trying to find something to say positively about this right now. I'm doing this like I would wear that. I was like, you would wear so many things though.

You know what I mean? And you have. Oh, you have. So Brandon's like, this was more editorial than what you've ever done. And I would love a, what do you say? I would love a slit so that they could lock. And I was like, yes, yes, I got one right.

She can't walk right. She can't, I got it right. The first thing I said when I judged God's work was I was like, great slitting the back. Love that. It's called a butt crack. Love that. Unfortunately, the other elements felt tortuous.

So when they get to Rami, this is what I'm thinking they're gonna say. Rami, this was so difficult because you guys both did a great job. We just gave a slight edge to Kato because we just like that she did something different, but yours was absolutely beautiful. We love it. But said they were like, die. This different, but yours was absolutely beautiful. We love it. But said they were like, die. This is a disaster. This was terrible.

We've seen this all before. Wow, congratulations. Run over on this. Now we know why you didn't win. I hope you continue to be haunted for the rest of your life about the failures in your design. Terrible.

So good. So drama music plays. And Ron was like, well, I wanted to create a plot against your skin using the strips of the denim. And Elaine's like, um, yeah, the cage on the mid-riff felt dated. This is not cohesive. And Julia's like, yeah, those pieces don't go together. That's what not cohesive means. But God, it's so good to meet you, Julia. Cherry Jones is like, this felt like the perfect storm of a disaster. Wow, I mean, like, you talk about being in the jaws

of the monster. That's what the model is. She's in the clothes, but it was not close enough, okay? And that got 7.8 stars on IMDB. enough, okay? And that got 7.8 stars on IMDB. To which I say Amelia, which I started, names of Amelia the whole thing. Come on. Now, we don't have Jared Jones for much longer. Luma some scraps over here for Christ's sake man. She's literally done 5,000 things I can't even. I'm just, I mean, wow, okay. So poor Rami is just getting ripped apart, right?

And Willie's cherry Jones is like, yeah, the jacket is sick, but the bottom just doesn't feel modern, you know, it's like the sisterhood of the not ever want to travel with those pants. Okay. Which I was shockingly in. Brandon's like, there was a hardness to this tonight that didn't feel like something I recognized you from you. It's almost like the hardness, like the exact quality, opposite quality of my penis when I met all you guys in person. What's the opposite

of a boner? Reverse boner. I just wanted to get away from you all. That was forced, but I had to come up with something. This dress was also soft as I was after talking to you losers for less than five minutes. So designers, please leave the runway because we're mortified for you and buy you. Oh, thank you. So they kicked them off and Brandon's like, well, there can only be one winner. Karosom was great, but that was not the winner. So let's start with Bishmi. And Julia liked his jacket, but thought the dress fell flat.

Yeah, Elaine thought the dress was basic too. And Julia's like, she goes, I mean, I'm looking at the overall and like, did it feel inspired? Did I feel something? Okay, then it's art. I think I solved the guys. The question of what is art, I figured it out for the entire world.

Brand is like, and you felt something when you looked at Laurent's, right? She was like, I did! And Cherry Jones is like, oh my God, it stole the show. I love when people can be sexy without showing skin. Sorry Julia, I know you go for skin, but you know, I know that that's the American experience, which I was the narrator of.

Julia goes, no, I completely agree. I'm okay going for sexy. She goes, I'm okay. It's okay, I'm not going for sexy. I'm going for unhinged. Okay. Sorry, I botched my own joke. So Julia's like, but it was, that's what she said, not what I said.

Although it sounds like I just said it, that's what she said joke. So Julia says that she liked cutos, a cutos, but didn't like anyone, but that she liked that it didn't look like anyone else's thing. And Willie is like, I really love the details on that one. I mean, it was so detailed. I felt like I was walking back in wine country, which I was part of a non-sambo class class 2019. And Brian was like, okay, we know who the winner is.

Now who goes home? Because Brittany was in the bottom, but we've left her. So let's just keep her, let's move to Anna. Because I know that denim ladies loved it. So go ahead and stand up for it, you guys. And Julie is like, oh my God, I would definitely wear this. I mean, like not 100 on the cut, like, but she shouldn't go home for this, you guys.

Brandon's like, I could see through to the crotch of the dress because the fit was off, stupid, stupid fucking Anna. And Julie is like, that's not a deal breaker for me. So, that's a feature not a flaw. Yeah, I live in the city, I'm not from the village. So, it's fine. Fine. Yeah, Willie is like, yeah, you know,

there's something, you know, that's the thing. It's really important with the, with about the fit. You know, you don't wanna be showing off the be beaver, which I started in 2011 for Beaver star cherry Jones is the vice president. So then they move over to Rami and Elaine's like, that was not a vibe. And did he tell somebody earlier that his inspiration was something a sister war one time, like, was his sister run over? Like, what can I get more? It's, I mean, unfortunately this dress really is giving me sister from a different decade vibe,

and I don't know if that's really a fashion forward commentary. And Brandon's like, yeah, well, he didn't have time to ask if his look was fashion forward, and I just layered jeans. I mean, she just layered jeans on top of jeans and the lens like capital look to also who cares. Brandon's like, we have to talk about project. And Elaine goes, he does street wear so well that this should have been his challenge. But for some reason, he lost focus in this. And Brandon's like, I mean, I was shocked.

I mean, whether or not you like Romney, I think that he's shown us some amazing things. And this, I mean, is he going? Is he going? I know we don't agree, but who's going? So the designers come back. And now at this point, I think it's going to be proje. Same. I was like, the other two were at least cool and like, well, put together and like looks decent on their models. Like, okay, so when the crotch was hanging out, but it was still arguably one of the most creative situates. Well, yes, so now we're talking about the winners. We're going to do the winners. So, Karosan is in and then Elaine says, the winner of this challenge showcased the versatility

of denim. It gave us a look that took our breath away. And the winner is Lerence. And at this point, we discovered that the close captioning person was a Lerence fan because I was watching this close captioning and it went from doing close captioning to all of a sudden, all caps across the screen. What, test, test, test, test. So you just know that that person was like,

yes, just like mashing their keyboard. Like, yes, Lerence, test. So you just know that that person was like, yes, just like mashing their keyboard. Like, yes, Laurent, yes. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Well deserved, that was really good. And it's really, it's like you showed that denim can go anywhere, a farm or a runway. Yeah. So now it's time to talk about who's in the bottom.

So Brittany is in, she's safe, and Elaine's like, Anna, the fit of your design was off. Rami, the look was not modern and it had way too much dress. Prajé, you're just stupid. Okay, now who do we choose next? And they sent home Rami. I was absolutely surprised by this one. Usually I see their point, but to me, in arguably, this was proje.

Like, yeah, I thought this was, I thought this was definitely a proje. Like, proje was the only one where I was like, and I really like proje a lot. In general, yeah, I do too. But I think it's one of those where he's done such great work over the season because Brandon was even like, we're used to seeing amazing stuff from him

So this was a misstep whereas Rami has been in trouble a few times for giving them like tired boring things, you know, and so I think it was probably a cumulative thing where they were like Meh, let's get rid of let's get rid of Rami. Projects only really fucked up this time. Right. So, Rami is out and that means we get to hear the La Bomba music because that's my thing is that, there we go. La la la la bomba.

In the background, whatever. The little Piano goes, la la la la bomba. And there's lots of hug. So Brandon is like, it is one of the most odd and strange things to be sending you home when I think you've had such a part in my own journey being here.

And it really has been a pleasure to be in your presence probably almost as much of a pleasure it is to be in my presence. God, this really must suck for you, huh? And Romance is like, well, as a Palestinian, I feel very proud to be here. It is a privilege. And I'm like, oh my God, he just won.

Bring him back. That is all I needed from you. Get back here. Give me tears. So backstage, everyone's like shocked. And Proud J is like, wow, I learned draping from you. I can't believe that you're going home while my career is gonna go forward, Romeo.

Wow, what a sad place you must be in right now. And they're all so nice to him. You know, they're all like, you were so amazing and you're such an inspiration. And then Christian comes in and he's like, this is very hard. I'm like really emotional about this, um, and I'm gonna show that by not crying

or showing any emotion at all. I really don't want you to leave yet. I'm there like, they all start crying. And he's like, it's really unfair. I mean, to just have somebody that I so clearly beat, just to watch you get beat two more times, I mean, that would be a trifecta of you getting beat. I'm saving you. That's right. You know, I'm saving you.

It's like Rhea Pearlman said, it's like I need you to be here to stand still. It's that way everyone can see how far I've come. Okay, so you have to remain. You must stay here. Wow. What was that speech from Aaron Brock of it? I was in that kid out of your cherry jones. You're done cherry jones, go home. So they have- Somebody made cherry jones for Day Right and Get

With A Fuck Outta here, thank you. It was so lovely and Rami basically Class of Christians hands, he goes, I want you to know, I never had the chance to tell you this Because I was there from the beginning, Oh, I know, 20 years ago, right? No, let me tell you, I'm trying to know I never had the chance to tell you this because I was there from the beginning Oh, I know 20 years ago, right? No, let me tell you. I'm trying to cry I'm so proud of you seeing all you do all this basic stuff. It's really special And I want you to know that as someone who's been there from day one

The more you say day one does not make you any more part of my career, but let's wrap this up, Rami He's like I'm so proud of you. Oh, whatever. I remember the first episode when you came back and I like, Oh, yes, I was on the same season as Christian. And now look at him doing so great, you know, but it was actually super cute. This show has so many feels love it. And next week we'll be back doing this again because as we said before, it's a below deck week. Yeah, we get to see some designer have to sit with the knowledge that they got eliminated

because they made a below deck, you know, form that wasn't good enough. And there's no more. That's what a way to go. And in all star season season to be sent home free, not making a blue collar work uniform correctly. Bye. This will be rough. Yeah. Bye everyone. Love you guys.
