Previously on Project Runway All-Stars: a weird
gimmick with dice meant that everyone had a specific fabric and a specific
event to design for. This ended up being the most unimportant criteria ever
because I don’t think anyone cared. Sonjia won for making a tacky gold dress.
Gunnar just failed so he was eliminated. (click for more)
Alyssa talks about presenting yourself and how
your clothes affect people’s perceptions of you. Kind of like how her red lace
sweatshirt right now provides a negative impression of her stylist. Working in
pairs, and Sonjia gets to pick all of them since she won. She picks Dmitry. Then
she pairs up Fabio and Jay, Sam and Michelle, and Justin and Helen. Eventually Alyssa
reveals they teamed up with match.com (ugh) so they have to make outfits for
two singles about to go on their first date. Michelle immediately realizes they
will have to do menswear and she freaks out. The dates are tonight. Clearly. The
winner will get a spa day for two. Woo.
All the women come in, because of course we’re
doing this separately. Michelle convinces her man to not wear a button down so
she doesn’t have to make one. Justin and Helen’s guy wants the window at J.
Crew. Someone loves Kim Kardashian. Sigh. Fabio and Jay get a gay couple, which
is super cute but also means they both have to do menswear. Sonjia BEGS Dmitry
to take care of the guy’s outfit. Helen and Justin argue a little bit about the
menswear, because Helen says she can do it but Justin doesn’t trust her. Michelle
is still complaining about it, and she whines as Sam tells her she has faith!
Michelle can succeed! Jay finds a gay fabric at Mood. That’s what he said. Michelle
is now sick and about to pass out.
10 hours to work. Sam drapes some fabric around
her hips and she and Sonjia discuss skirts. Michelle is still upset because Sam
won’t help her and also she says she’s sick. Is she sick? Is she drama queening
about the menswear? I can’t tell. She is literally crying about having to
design around a penis. Certainly she won’t shut up about how she’s not well. Sam
says you have to save yourself first, so she’s not helping Michelle unless her
own stuff is good.
Zanna appears. I think she has a knee-length
linen skirt over crop pants. She loves Helen’s shirt dress. Justin’s clothes
are too boring. Sam has work to do, while Michelle gets some good praise. Sonjia
appears to have turquoise and a top that is wrapped around her torso several times.
Fabio turned his jacket into a shirt. Jay has a pink jacket for some reason.
Zanna puts it on, and points out she could wear it so maybe not give this to a
buff Australian dude.
More working. Jay still loves his pink jacket so I
guess it’s staying, but he makes the sleeves light gray instead of pink. The clients
come in, and get hair. Well, the girls get hair consults. The boys have fitting
time. Everything goes really smoothly, as all the couples leave in the outfits.
They meet for dates and of course talk about the clothes and some people get
dates at bars and I think two couples got shafted and have dates on top of that
ticket booth thing in Times Square.
Runway day. Everyone comes back in, and they
gossip about how the dates went. I wonder if someone had a terrible date, if
they’d pretend it was fine since they’re on TV. Hot makeup guy Scott. Michelle is
clearly feeling better because she’s shit-talking everyone in confessional.
Guest judge is Laverne Cox. Sonjia: teal dress,
knee-length with a pencil skirt, and a cutout at her navel. The top has two
pieces of fabric that run over her shoulders and then look like they’re tucked
in at that cutout, which does not 4extend around her waist. I like the color
but the dress doesn’t look like it fits her in the waist. Dmitry: black pants
and a black sweater. That’s all I can see. Boring. Sam: black crop top and
cream high-waisted skirt. The top is a mullet top since the back comes down
over her butt. The skirt ends below the knee and just looks unflattering
because of the length. Plus she paired it with black gladiator sandals, so her
legs look really stumpy. Michelle: black pants and a black sweater. The pants
are long and they seem OK. The pockets look weird but functional. There are
zippers along the shoulders of the sweater.
Jay: black jeans, a gray tank top, and a pink and
gray jacket. The jacket has gray sleeves and a gray collar, and it seems kind
of girly. Fabio: navy pants that are a little short (they have cuffs) and a top
that used to be a jacket. The top is dark in the torso with white short
sleeves, so it looks like he’s wearing a sweater vest. Helen: short royal blue
shirt dress. It’s very loose and really really short. It’s like a trapeze dress
that is barely long enough to cover her butt. At the very bottom there’s a
strip of black, and I can’t if that’s a banded hem or some hot pants, or a
miniskirt. The back is open, with two wings of blue fabric. Justin: gray short
sleeved button down and some dark pants.
Everyone gets to stay out here today. Well, four
at a time. Sonjia talks about sex appeal and Dmitry talks about relaxation. Alyssa
asks about the date, and I find I couldn’t care less about how these dates went
or anything relevant to their love lives. The color of the dress is nice but
the judges are less sure about the cutout. Dmitry’s sweater is black with a
triangle of dark blue over one shoulder so it’s not as boring as I thought. But
it’s still too boring for the judges. Michelle says she picked cashmere so
everyone could feel the guy up. Sigh. The girl wanted a crop top, though. Sam’s
outfit is something you could buy at the mall. Isaac saw her bra on the runway.
Sam tries to say she was concerned about boobs but no one wants boobs to be a
problem. They all love Michelle’s outfit, the details anyway, but the fit is
off.
Justin went for clean cut clothing, and Helen
wanted playful and flirty and backless. Helen’s fabric is shiny and it looks
like pajamas. They love it because I think it’s dumb so clearly I’m wrong. Ugh.
Isaac is on my side and says she looks pregnant. Justin was too boring, and
when he says that’s what the guy wanted Isaac is NOT having it. Laverne says
the guy is sexy and should call her later. Hee. Fabio and Jay talked to their
guys, and one was a T-shirt and jeans guy, and one was slacks and a button-down
guy, so they switched it up and traded styles. Everyone loves the jacket, and the
fact that the pants are loose but not stupid baggy. Fabio’s guy looks interesting
and different. Isaac says “gay priest on a yacht” which makes zero sense.
Dmitry and Sonjia are safe. Underwhelming but not
terrible. Laverne and Alyssa fight about Michelle, but then everyone else jumps
in against her. All agree Jay did a good job. Fabio maybe was strange but he
had a strong design concept. Justin’s outfit was so boring that Isaac is angry.
Sam’s outfit made her girl shapeless. Helen made her girl look pregnant.
Dmitry and Sonjia are in. Michelle is in. Fabio is
the winner! He immediately curses. Hee. Jay is in. Sam is in. She can’t run
away fast enough. Helen and Justin both were terrible, but they “helped” with the
chemistry in their couple (whatever) so they’re both in! No one is eliminated! Pep
talks for all! UGH. Whatever, I hate this show. When Helen goes back to the
Scrap Bin and says they’re both safe no one really reacts.
Next time: male swimmers, make swimwear and
resort wear. I think we have some time off from this show so enjoy it!
