The cutouts in the leather remind me of Project Runway season 10 winner (and Project Runway All Stars season 4 winner) Dmitry Sholokhov. This is not a bad thing, merely an observation.

While this piece reminded me of Viktor’s Luna’s collection that should have won him Season 9 until he wrecked it.

This was, hands down, the best outfit shown all night. I loved this red dress, and it really worked with her Andriod to “real girl” theme–one of the few outfits that really made sense.

This one worked far less–the front is ugly and looks more like an armadillo’s shell than something anyone would want to wear out on a Saturday night.

Tim called this “cheap and tawdry” and i can see where he was coming from–the sleeves made little sense with the cherry blossom dress, especially hanging on a hanger. The model is the key here, and I think it would only work on her body.

This was Chelsea’s attempt at evening wear–the only one to go full out and make an evening gown. It was ambitious, but it also showed her limitations in her craft at her age. I don’t think she should stay away from evening wear, but I think she should study it a bit more before attempting it again.

Unlike last year, where we had a phenom talent, this season on Project Runway Junior felt like it was anyone’s game, and mostly about who the judges favored. That’s not the worst thing, but I hope next season they managed to cast a few kids with a bit more magic.
