Straycat80 65,910 January 14 Sucks that Aaron got booted on his birthday but that design was awful, I didn’t like the raincoat either. What was he thinking?! I felt this episode was another product advertisement, this time for Tresemme. Chasity deserved the win, the hair was cool too. I thought it was ironic the guest judge criticized Christina’s models bust not being supported when her giant boobs were all squashed in a way too tight top. She could not have been very comfortable could she? Edited January 14 by Straycat80 36 9 Share this post Link to post

Madding crowd 19,381 January 14 They needed two days for this challenge. Collaboration with a hairstylist is difficult to begin with and being rushed made it worse. My favorite outfit was the one Bones made because it seemed to fit the hairstyle and was original. I hated the striped half jacket outfit, where would you go wearing that? I guess Aaron deserved to go but I would have liked seeing a final collection from him. 45 Share this post Link to post

Tiggertoo 1,232 January 14 I’m so sad that Aaron’s gone. I can’t believe that Bones outlasted him. But that was a bad outfit. Wasn’t there something in last week’s preview were Aaron was complaining about never winning a challenge. Did I miss that? i thought Christina’s outfit was horrible. So surprised when they praised it. I liked Shantell’s the best. 18 Share this post Link to post

T Summer 1,851 January 14 I just got in in time for the runway. Will have to watch the whole episode. So Arianna is the model's name. The one who Zayden and Prajje went home designing for. I was just wondering at the end of the last episode... have Kristina or Shantal ever gotten a plus size model.? and here we are. I guess she looked better than Zayden or Prajje had her looking, but really where is anyone wearing that? (and I like Kristina). Shantal has a sharp eye and can really make some clothes. I don't think we've seen anything from her where she didn't know where to stop. They made the right choice IMO, though. Chasity's was a runway moment like they stated, and the garment and the hair complemented each other. I don't mean to be harsh or anything, but Coral could have gone too. I'll bet she goes next. It's enough already with the macrame. 24 Share this post Link to post
joanne3482 5,526 January 14 I completely thought it was going to be Kristina and Aaron in the bottom. Kristina's outfit was terrible! I was so surprised she was at the top. I didn't necessarily think Coral's was so bad. I liked the juxtaposition of the sleeker jacket with the more wild hair. I did not love the long fringe hanging off though. 13 Share this post Link to post

The bustier or whatever it was that was below the sheer top was very low - I just could not figure it out! I felt bad for Aaron - what a crappy birthday gift! I know his jumpsuit was a hot mess, but I liked the concept of the raincoat. I don't know if I would wear it personally, but I could see someone else rocking it. Also, his outfit was totally in keeping with the design challenge (again), where Coral's wasn't. I wasn't a fan of Coral's, and she totally missed the challenge. I also thought her skirt was messy and didn't match the jacket. If I had to choose between the two, I would have sent Coral home. But, in my opinion, Christina's design was worse than both Aaron's and Coral's. Edited January 14 by njbchlover 40 1 Share this post Link to post

Kitty Redstone 13,585 January 14 Chasity's look was very dramatic and her win was well deserved; still, I liked Shantall's better. The tiger stripe just isn't my thing. Not sad at all that Aaron got the boot, as I've not forgotten how ugly and vicious he was to Bones a few episodes back. I think Bones is much more talented and mature designer and person anyway, and hope he makes it to the finale. Coral should give the macrame a rest. Also, I can't imagine having breasts as large as the guest judge. That would really, really suck. 19 Share this post Link to post
Fellaway 5,023 January 14 Well, for the second week in a row, Coral designed what Coral wanted to design, with no real regard to clients or collaboration or the purpose of the challenge. With that and her disjointed design this week, I'd have sent her home. True, Aaron's jumpsuit was the worst thing on the runway, but his coat wasn't. And he recognized his failings this week, he owned them, he didn't try to throw the blame or anyone under the bus, honestly, all rarities on this show. He paid attention to his collaborator and tried to incorporate her into his design. With all that and his past above par designs, I'd have kept him. That said, he went out with class and dignity and a level of professionalism I wish we'd see more of on this show. As to the rest, I must be living in Bizarro World because I would've put the safe designs in the top and the top designs in a four-way tie for the bottom. I wasn't wowed by Bones' or Shantall's designs, but thought they were the best of the night. Kristina's was a hot mess to my mind and eyes, and Chastity's was meh and tacky and unoriginal. We've seen that silhouette countless times, and she made a tacky fabric even tackier with the cut-outs and the glitter. With the hair, it was all way too much. Chastity can make a well-fitted design, but I've come to the conclusion that she has no real creativity. What was up with Kristina and the wig and "one of the Pattys"? There are "Pattys"? What have I been missing here? 36 Share this post Link to post

Ms Blue Jay 68,460 January 14 This episode made me reminisce about Prajje. He is more talented than at least half, and maybe all, of these designers. Sigh. People always complain that the plus size models are always in the bottom designs, but this time, Kristina at least proved that theory wrong. Both Aaron and Coral had very conventional models.

Desert Rat 6,983 January 14 Well, this just sucks. The best designer in the entire competition, who was in the top nearly every challenge and who should have won most of them, is out. Was this his best effort? No. Did he deserve to be at the bottom? Probably. Did he deserve to lose? Nope. He was the only designer I really wanted to see in the finale. These judges suck. They all have an agenda. I'm done worn the show. Coral is not a good designer. She has done nothing interesting or innovative. She should have been out.

SemiCharmedLife 10,621 January 14 I've liked the designs of both Aaron and Coral, until tonight. Both of them are very talented and put a lot of work into their creations. Aaron designed a very complex rain trench with a very flawed jumpsuit, while Coral missed the mark- none of her outfit/hair was cohesive. I would have liked to see Aaron stay, but the judges were never as impressed with him as I was. 22 Share this post Link to post

I'm glad you mentioned it, I was hoping I wasn't the only one who wondered about it. Why is Coral still there? Aaron at least had a jacket that went with the hair Coral just did what she wanted & didn't care about the hair. I loved Shantal's white pants & jacket with the mesh top.

Andyourlittledog2 5,455 January 14 1 hour ago, millennium said: Don't want to think too much about Aaron telling Christian, "I love a pearl necklace." Yeah, that kinda stopped me dead. 😮 When your breasts are kinda large and you cram them into something really tight the nipples can kinda slide to the bottom....at least in my experience. It's weird but it happens. That said, that bust was awful. And looked really uncomfortable. More tears, more sad tales, more significant backstories.... I don't want to know this much about any of these people, I just want to watch them make good (or terrible) designs. And I love Aaron and am so sad he went home over Coral. I am so over Coral. She simply doesn't listen to the challenges and does whatever the hell suits her and the judges just ignore it week after week. It's aggravating. Aaron had a stress meltdown once early on. I refuse to be more upset by it than the people who were actually there and affected by it. They all seem to have moved on long ago and like him very much. I kept thinking that if he had just done something simple and monochromatic underneath to set off the raincoat it would have presented much better. Black maybe. But I'm no designer so what do I know? 34 Share this post Link to post
adore 619 January 14 This elimination seemed fair. Aaron’s look was a disaster and he knew it. Coral probably won’t (and shouldn’t) make it to the finale, especially if she continues to treat challenges as mere suggestions! If there is a neon colored ballgown challenge coming up, count on Coral to submit a pastel fringy frock. Sometimes it is hard to tell if she is a risk taker or risk averse or … just eccentric. Anyway, I won’t miss Aaron or his string of ho hum near-hits. (Why was he talking about pearl necklaces when Christian handed him a pearl purse?? I was waiting for cricket sounds or a clue from the editing team that, yes, something weirdly suggestive just happened.)

The only thing I can think of is that it wasn’t see through and there was a skin tone liner (maybe a spandex liner). It was so distracting. As a person with pendulous breasts myself, I believe what she is doing is taking her downward pointing breasts and "folding" them into the bottom of a bra cup in an effort to create a rounded breast and disguise that her nipples hang so low they could be tucked into her waist band. Not very effective though when you put sheer fabric over the whole works. I had a coworker who sewed beads into her bra cups to further the illusion of perkier breasts with centered nipples under suits, but never wore sheer fabrics. 2 13 13 1 Share this post Link to post

Just make a simple dress and call it a day! No kidding. Just make a tube dress (or a crop top and circle skirt maybe to match the silhouette) to show off the coat. Instead the jumpsuit competed for attention. Disaster! Coral's look was constructed better but it was not a good look. The skirt was boring. The jacket with the macramé hanging off of it looked sloppy. And it really didn't match the hair at all. I did love Chasity's look for being dramatic but I wish she'd chosen a different print. As it was, it did look a bit like a costume. Shantall's look was great and very 90s throwback that's currently trendy. I think the coat should have been cropped though. I don't really understand what happened with her leather. She said it was rotten? Mood sells rotten leather? I would have put Kristina in the safe group, teetering on bottom. That wasn't really a great look and I don't know at all what it had to do with the finger waves. And I don't understand why her model didn't bring a bra to the fitting? She's a plus sized model and while I know that designers have had her go braless in the past she should still be showing up with a convertible bra in case she needs it. 14 1 Share this post Link to post
Jordan Baker 3,520 January 14 This season is probably my least favorite of all the Bravo seasons. Too much drama (in the first few episodes, anyway) and too little talent. I'm sorry to see Aaron go because I thought he would have created an interesting collection. I knew he'd be in the bottom, and I figured Coral would be too. But my third would have been Chasity. Yes, her dress was a good fit for the hair, but I really didn't like the dress. Maybe it was the sequins around the slashes, which really cheapened the look. I also thought there was too much going on. (Is that a Heidi-ism?) I thought Kristina's was interesting, but it was middle at best. Shantell's was probably my favorite. What was the little tiff between Shantell and Kristina at the notions' counter? I think I missed something. Edited January 14 by Jordan Baker 9 Share this post Link to post
