PR highlights/lowlights
Yay Jay! He totally deserved to win too, based on his collection. And this sounds crazy, but thank goodness for Wendypepper-- you can hate her as much as you want, but she gave us a hella interesting episode!! Anyhoo:

Tim goes and visits all the designers. Jay lives in the boonies somewheres and was yelling (with a shotgun!) at Tim to "git off my propity!" Hee!
Wendypepper lives in Virginia, yawn, and Karasaun in LA. Both visits were short and boring, except that Wendypepper seemed to be pushing her 5-year-old to kiss up to Tim. Ugh, she even uses her child as a pawn! Oh, and let's not forget Tim's comment to her that "That jacket is a little too... Rue McClanahan from Golden Girls". Yes! Typical Tim "don't defend that shoe to me!" gold.
In New York (at the W suite, awesome), Wendypepper and Karasaun throw down!! They have a huge fight where Karasaun tells Wendypepper she has no soul (again, eye roll). The best line came from Jay while he was waiting out the fight in the next room: "Maybe I can coerce them into physically fighting each other, then I'll just win!" But then WP turns on Jay and calls him Karasaun's "whipping boy". So Jay is forced to break it to her that "Everybody hates you!"
Oh, Karasaun, what happened to you? Forget Picturegate (the drawing-on-wendy's-daughter-picture), we now have Shoegate! Karasaun had Dollhouse custom design her runway shoes, and Tim had to break it to her that this was a breach of contract. Both WP and Jay were peeved about it because they had to use $5 shoes that they bought themselves, or Michael Kors crappy hand-me-downs. Karasaun's solution is to have Dollhouse "charge" her $15 per pair of shoes. LAME. So Tim calls her out on it, saying $15 "wouldn't even cover the export tax on those shoes". But LAME again: he allows Karasaun to use the "illegal" shoes anyway and the "judges just won't factor them in". LAME. Jay is the only one-- the ONLY one-- left on this show who actually looks ethical anymore! Yay Jay!
The runway show-- Jay's won, hands down. Although, Michael Kors pointed out the flawless fit and construction of Karasaun's work, which was beautiful, but just not that interesting. Also, Kors points out that Karasaun's was "basically, Gucci", like, basically telling her she ripped off the look wholesale. Ouch-- that is a big insult coming from the Korsinator.
I love Michael Kors. When he was critiquing WP's collection, he said everything looked like "hers" except all of a sudden there was a dress where "[he] saw boobies! What was a sheer, see-through dress doing in this collection?!" Boobies! hee hee!
Parker Posey was one of the judges. Wha?! She looked like, high or drunk or something and resembled Jane Fonda circa 1980. See for yourself:

Jane vs. Parker: which is which?

Last highlight: Jay wins and is actually speechless!

I am going to miss this show (sniff..). When's Project Runway 2? And here are my dream judges: Isaac Mizrahi, Alexander McQueen and anybody except Parker Posey and Nancy O'Dell. Ha!

One of Jay's winning looks

Oh, don't forget to check out Tim's Take. He feels like it could have easily gone to Karasaun-- he felt her collection was just as great as Jay's. He may be right!
