project runway 4 - even designers get the blues

Challenge: Create an iconic denim look using LEVI'S 501s and cotton.



The Winner: Ricky's denim tube dress really WOWed the judges, me not so much. Rami or Christian should have won. I would have given Christian the edge for innovation, since Rami's use of zippers as piping was sooo Jeffrey S. last season!



Auf'd: Ding, dong the witch is dead! Vicky Wang is g-o-n-e. Heidi said it best when she pointed out that Victorya's design looked more like "a jean jacket... with a little skirt attached to it" than a trenchcoat.

Fave Quote: Chris's response to Christian's immature whining about deconstructing denim, "... give him a bottle and send him to bed."

Designers I loooved this episode: Christian, for his FIERCELY chic and unique "motorcycle mama" look; Sweet P, for being smart enough to take Tim's advice in turning her "happy hands-at-home granny circle, hippy dippy" dress into a super fabulous garment; and Chris, for keeping it real with Jillian prior to her meltdown at the sewing machine... keep it simple, girl!
