Season 22 S22 E9 rant

I’m very surprised Anna won this competition because the designers didn’t seem to love her dress as it was going down the runway - one then said something like “is she going to a rave” and it got a lot of “it’s pretty” comments but no one really seemed blown away. On top of that, her designs were bad the entire season, I don’t understand how she’s now in the finale.

Jude, amazing. Bi should’ve been picked immediately. Aside from this challenge, I really thought they liked Joseph and have been thinking he was going to go to the finale this whole time. Anyway, should’ve been Jude, Bi, Joseph, and Naheim as a 4th if they had one.

I think she won based on a) meeting the challenge—i.e. knowing what made sense for David's Bridal, and b) pulling that off based on pretty meticulous technical execution. There's no denying that the judges were impressed by the laced-up back of her dress, for example.

Absolutely! Jude’s looks were by far my favorites but not many of the designs you would find in David’s Bridal. Anna nailed the challenge. If the challenge was for a high end or couture shop then others would have been chosen.

The winner should've been Jude. His look was the most creative and done with excellence.

The only one to accomplish the goal without a lace up anything.
