Should've won it/Could've lost it


Let's face it, kittens.

This should've won. Once again, the judges are letting their crack dependencies make decisions for them.


Honestly? We don't have much to say here. It was a really pretty dress and, unlike the other contenders, it was executed near flawlessly.


We say "near" because there is one glaring issue: the bust. It's really poorly fitted and it's giving Shannone a titshelf.


It's possible that was a reason for her not getting the win, but we never heard the judges say anything to that effect.


Aside from that, we love it. Love the collar, love the belt.


It's kind of a shame it was rendered in such a shitty fabric, though. We'd love to see this in a richer color.

One more thing:

Flawless! Love her. We were kind of surprised that she wasn't snatched up first in the model selection because from where we're sitting, she's head and shoulders above most of them.

Oh, Korto.

Korto, Korto, Korto. What happened, doll? Last week's dress was so gorgeous, so striking, that we were sure you were going to be one of the ones to sail through the competition, racking up wins and near-wins on the way to Bryant Park.

Now?


We're not so sure. When it was on the dressform, we had a similar reaction to Tim's.


A sort of "Okaaaay. That might work." And if she'd done a little editing and if it had been executed perfectly, it could have really been an interesting dress.


First, the editing: those gigantic mermaid fins on the side of the skirt - lose them. From a design perspective they achieve nothing. Also, while we liked the idea of the exposed darts, did they have to be so thick? A thinner line running down the body could have been sleek and chic.


Second, the execution. Honey, WHAT is gone on there? That's a MESS.


She also seemed to be having some fit issues around the bust, which is odd, because that model has practically no bust at all. Those cups look they're sitting too low on her.


Conceptually, we thought the dress had a lot of potential. We don't know what happened to her this week, but she was seriously thrown off her game.

Oh, and remember when we said that she was low-drama, no bullshit?





Guess we can toss that idea out the window.
