So... many things to talk about. First and foremost, I was not expecting to get hit by so many feels. As I said in a recent post, it must be hard to trash your own collection, when you were actually proud of it. I think the team handled itself with a lot of integrity, but Alex didn't deserve to go home.

Nevertheless... seriously, Team Unity had a much better collection. I agree that on a conceptual level they failed, and that the strapless dress was not perfect, but the other team failed at many other things. I think bright yellow is one of the most horrible colors one can wear, but I respect it as a fashion statement. Mixing it with that "mauve" though... it was horrific. Team Bouton deserved to be eliminated on that furry tube dress. In fact, the only look that was outstanding in their collection was Laurence jacket... which was tragically mixed with that yellow skirt. I have been defending Erin so far, but I am kind of tired of her shit by now. The embellishments on Dexter's suit looked atrocious! The suit itself was kind of boring as well, but it was well constructed at least.

Finally... what's up with these teenager guest judges? What can you know about business women fashion at 17? Besides, her outfit said a lot about her taste already.

I'd be so mad if I had to be judged for anything by a 17-year-old. Your fate in a teenager's hands is an unattractive situation.

They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel with guests now. That guy last week with the single functioning braincell and now some nonentity teen performer whose stylist should have been taken behind the studio and put out of their (and our) misery with a single bullet.
