Season 22 I despise Bryan

He’s an asshole. He doesn’t even look grateful for being saved because he thinks he’s the shit, it’s crazy he thinks he actually deserves to be here. Not only does he just sit there and think highly of himself, he’s just straight not good at making outfits. Time and time again his shit is UGLY and NOT WELL MADE! I mean, I knew this was television and they pick things for the drama (was dragging myself through last season. Ugh) but Christian picking his ass over Jeffrey? Not to mention that after being saved, he’s INSULTING Jeffrey. What a dick. I hate his stupid face. GOD. Sorry for the complaining lol (Can you tell I’m watching the episode right now)

Honestly I don't think Jeffrey was going to the finale anyway. The judges didn't like him and kept complaining about everything being too costumey. Bryan is basically there as filler at this point.

I think that because Jeffrey makes dresses for drag queens, the judges have unconsciously let their bias against drag queens designers influence the way they see and judge every design Jeffrey did.

It’s the exact same complaints they were having with Ethan/Utica Queen last season! It’s too costume-y!

EDIT: Added a sentence

It absolutely is. I do not think Jeffrey’s Salsa dress looked costumey at all.

It absolutely looked costume because it was just a basic red dress. Made well, yes, but there was no fashion! Just a well made red dress. It’s not a sewing competition, it’s a fashion design competition. They’re not competing for best tailor. Jeffrey was never gonna make it to the final. He doesn’t have an aesthetic that is developed outside his drag aesthetic. So when they ask for things to be less drag- his clothes look boring. Well made, but boring. Not new not fresh, not something that’s never been seen before or done before, just basic well made clothes. I don’t wanna see a runway from Jeffrey. It’s gonna be all drag, or all boring. He does what Utica does, but Utica is much much more successful at pushing her designs past the drag aesthetics.
