We’re back and Ashley is ready to start fresh and remind the other bitches who has two wins under her belt already. The challenge is to make lingerie for Heidi’s lingerie line. I’m not done being mad at Candace yet. Ashley turns to Swapnil and asks him to be her fit model. Cute. Tim comes in and gives them a bra for their base. Why? Are they in the cup size of their models?
Right away, Homeboy is doing great. Candace has grand plans that could be great, but it’s a lot of work. Merline has opted to actually create a bra from scratch. I hope she wins for that alone. Blake is his usual clueless self. I am already mentally prepared for his to glue some glitter onto the base bra and get in the top three.
Karma is swift this week for Lindsey who manages to stab herself in the hand with scissors and is off to get a tetanus shot. Joseph, my favorite matronly designer is struggling. Jake is kind of weird. He gets a bit weirder every week. Kelly chooses a chartreuse polka dot that I like, but the judges probably won’t.
Heidi and Tim both come to critique the works in progress. Heidi does like the chartreuse! But Kelly still hasn’t started her panties. Homeboy Edmond has changed his look several times as usual and Heidi immediately calls it tacky. Joseph’s bra is beyond Matronly. He has a lot of fabric where fabric should not be. And it’s pink and gray. Oh, Joseph, I keep trying to make excuses for you every week, but this has got to be changed. Tim tells Candace that if her outfit is only missing the whip, she’s gone too far. Lindsey is back from her tetanus shot and Heidi likes her look. Laurie’s look is bad and they tell her exactly that. Blake is all over the place. Merline is struggling without the base. Jake is struggling as well. Ashley is trying to make a bra that does more than look pretty. Heidi is not down with that. Swapnil has a cute bra but has run out of fabric.
When Heidi and Tim leave, they tell the contestants they all need to be on the runway in ten minutes! What are they up to now? When they get to the runway, it looks like a sex orgy room. Beds and pillows everywhere. The twist is they have to make a cover up to their look. They also have to sleep over in the beds for their extra time. 
Merline’s bra is a disaster. She took a risk not using the base and got her measurements wrong. Lauries bra is cute, but her panties are bad. You can’t have a seam in the front or the back of UNDERWEAR! Jake’s model doesn’t want to wear a thong so he is starting his panties over.
No one is sleeping at the sleep over. Everyone was up until nearly dawn. No one seems happy with their work. Several have no cover-up and just tie some fabric on their models last minute.
Runway
Swapnil’s strappy number comes out first. It’s nice. He somehow managed to make the cover up not look like a bed sheet.
Ashley’s lavender ensemble with a gray cover-up is elegant. Ashley’s model was fantastic! She worked the runway and SOLD that outfit.
Jake’s look is decent as well. So far nothing really bad has come out. I actually like Jake’s panties the best. He did not complete a cover-up though.
Edmond. Oh GOD EDMOND. It’s horrible. There appears to be a Band-Aid on the model vagina. It also looks like he has glued nude lace on her mid thigh for some unknown reason. The bra is horrible. This is bottom three stuff. Why does he always fuck up so bad when he has immunity?
Lindsay made a full coverage lace pantie that is sort of two panties in one. The blue and the peach are awesome.
Candace lightened up her dominatrix look by adding yellow accent to the black. Her cover-up really went with the look. Great look.
Joseph’s look is not terrible. The stupid bows are distracting and on pretty much every piece of lingerie out there. Am I the only one that cuts them off when I get them home? He will be in the bottom.
Merline managed to fix her bra. Her look was hot, but it’s for someone with no tits.
Blakes’s look is awful. He will be in my bottom three. But never the judges. His look was crap. Pink saggy, lacey crap and the fabric he tied to the model as a wrap is some shiny white shit.
Laurie loves her look, but the seam right up between the labia puts it in my bottom three. Is my bottom three already full?
Kelly’s model walks last. Her chartreuse top and bottom are just okay but the cover-up with the hood and sash take it to another level.
My bottom three are Edmond (!!!), Blake and Laurie.
My top three are Kelly, Candace and Lindsey.
The judges disagree. Right way they put all of my choices except for Blake and Laurie through to the next round. So who won? Ashley? Swapnil?
The judges top three are Ashley, Swapnil and Merline. The more I look a Merline’s look the more I hate it. I like Ashley’s the best of this bunch. Her construction is way above the other two.
The judges bottom three are Laurie, Jake and Blake. Blake says to the judges he doesn’t know anything about women’s bodies. His work was crap. He really should go.
This actress judge is just full of opinions.
Merline wins! Despite what I said when I started post I feel like Merline winning with her shitty construction robbed Ashley from her third win.
But the judges totally make up for it for FINALLY Aufing Blake! YAY! That kid was in way over his head.
Something happened with Blake that the producers turned on him so quick. He should have gone home for that horrible bubble dress.
EDITED!!!!!!
PLEASE DO NOT SPOIL SHOWS!
I was way off on this one as well. I did not like Merline’s look at all. I like the idea she was going for, But I do not feel she got there. I really liked Ashley’s look also. It was constructed well and her color choices we nice. I did not care for Candace’s look either. I was afraid they would not like Swapnil’s, but they did. His blue eyes kind of freak me out, they are contacts right? Overall I like his work, he is quite talented. Except for last week I am enjoying this season.
Yea, I was way off, too. I picked Ashley for the win. It was a much better fit with Heidi’s collection. And Lindsey’s was cute, too.
Edmond’s first attempt looked like it came straight out of a discount lingerie catalog. From China.
I think they often give awards to where people were going and ignore execution. It’s if the idea and the execution are awful do they bring up the execution. I think when it is reworked it will be hot but bedroom only for the larger breasted ladies.
Poor Swapnil. I think Heidi lives him but Nina does not. Ashley had a great ensemble that I would love to wear.
Edmonds first try is proof that men could not really care less about what women wear and just want them naked.
I don’t know how Homeboy’s hot mess stayed out of the bottom. It was worse than Jake’s who I really didn’t think he needed to be there other than the fact he failed to make a cover-up.
Oh and I thought that for sure they were going to eliminate both of them and then Tim would save Twinkle Toes.
I think Tim dislikes Princess Blake. I half expected Blake to say I don’t know anything about girls cause girls is ooogie. Honestly, I thought he was carrying the Wally and the Beaver and Eddie Haskall thing too far. The ingenuous baby brother act went too far.
Blake leaving is a big surprise to me. Totally thought production would drag him to top 5 just for the viewers who enjoy hate watching him (and he stood up for Ashley).
Normally, I love Edmond’s but not this week, with that bandaid looking panty. To be honest, I’d wear the first bra that he was working on till Heidi met with him and called it tacky.
I didn’t like Merlin’s design but teas not my decision.
Merlene’s undies and bra looked like something your local heroin addicted pole dancer would wear. God awful. What is wrong with the judges?
Heroin addict, pole dancer! Good one and right on! It was awful.
Ashley’s was gorgeous and if she had won I would have purchased it.
Totally strange decision!
Maybe they rewarded Merlene for making a bra from scratch? I thought that Ashley and Swapnil were robbed. I am so glad Ashley is keeping her head on straight. I’m beginning to think that Edmond’s girl only goes to formal events. Meaning, his gowns are winners while he seems to have some bad taste choices on other garments. Once again I have to ask, what is it going to take for Swapnil to win? Poor Princess Blake! Yes dear, you do have to know about the female anatomy to be a designer.
I thought Ashley was going to win. I don’t understand how Merline won at all. That was horrible construction. How did these people qualify to be contestants?
As a gay man, I thought it was hilarious how some of the gay male contestants didn’t know the location of a woman’s “anatomy.”
It was also pretty funny when Swapnil said his inspiration was “Bridal Underwear.”
Glad Blake went home, but these episodes seem much more producer driven than talent. Ashley was robbed.
Clearly NONE of the judges have big tits – otherwise they would have TOTALLY gotten that Ashley’s is also FUNCTIONAL… that wider band in back means bigger cup sizes are possible. (although, that lace under the bra underwires, that would drive me CRAZY)
I would also like to point out that Merline had somewhat of a seam right down the camel toe.
I looked up Heidi’s site – hope it is ok to mention that here – and while I commend her for going up to G (only up to 38, so not sure if that is plus size), they are not designed well if they are like the picture. Only two hooks in the back…. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
WAIT WHAT she has G cups! Off to drunk buy!
Ha ha!!! Wench.
Want to hear what ya get. I’m all about Ashley’s comments… I splurge bought on a bra earlier this week because the bra wasn’t black, nude, or white. Nothing fancy, but a beautiful purple! So excited for it to arrive…
A G cup with two hooks? lmao…
I would buy Swapnil’s cover up…loved it! Merline deserves props for making that bra from scratch even though it would never hold my girlies but Ashley deserved the win. I thought the same thing about a vagina bandaid on Edmund’s panties. Joseph ‘ look actually turned out quite nicely and modern. Seeing Tim in his pj’s and robe was a hoot!
I love the lantern Tim was carrying
Ashley should have one, but Merlines was pretty good. Black needed to go! Thank you! Thanks, TT.
I was shocked at Merline’s win, Ashley’s was much better constructed. I guess they gave Merline props for attempt at making a bra from scratch. Laurie’s bra was cute but the seam down the middle of the panties: unforgivable. For the obligatory Heidi challenge the designers did well. The only absolutely wretched look was Blake’s.
When Tim Gunn said “grandpa’s tired”, it reminded me of when I realized I had gone from being a daddy to being a grand daddy. I used it that night in a show as a joke and called myself Sequoia because I was gay ancient or gayncient. After using the word gayncient. here at tamaratattles I heard the term used on some sitcom.True story. One never knows who is reading (and stealing) our posts.
And Tamara, sweetie, no you are not alone. I always cut those silly bows off my undies too. j/k
/hairyeyeball.
Exactly, ericzku! Leo, go sit in the WLS until the season is over. You’ve lost your privileges to talk since you knew it was a spoiler and then spoiled it anyway. You suck!
HEY LEO… if you are reading this, licking the window,
FUCK YOU – KNOW IT ALL IDIOT!
I apologize for Leo. He will never post here again. I deleted his posts.
FOR FUTURE FUCKTARDS, WE ALL CAN GOOGLE! IF WE WANT TO KNOW WE CAN, JUST LIKE YOU! Shut the fuck up and enjoy the show!
“I apologize for Leo. He will never post here again. I deleted his posts.”
Thank you! <3
I did not read the posts to closely but ANYONE WHO TRIES TO SPOIL A SHOW WILL BE PERMANENNTLY BANNED!
AND PLEASE DON’T REPEAT ANYTHING YOU READ. I MANAGED TO DELETE THE SORRY ASSED SPOILER WITHOUT REALLY GETTING IT.
I think people who spoil the ending of movies, etc. are pure evil. I really think it is an example of how self absorbed someone is. You take the part you loved about the movie and tell it to others so they cannot experience it themselves just because you want to talk about it. Gross.
Did you ever read about the teacher who had a pretty disruptive class who was very into Game of Thrones? Told them that he would start to write down the names of characters who died if they didn’t quiet down. They didn’t – he started writing. They shut up.
Pure genius.
I never hear about him but I love him. I will tell my teacher friends
HA! That is brilliant, teaching, Erica.
As Dr. Phil says, with kids, or even adults, you have to find their currency.
In elementary I had the usual alphabet line across the top of my white board. Each kid had a fish swimming though the reading levels from A-Z. There were murmurs from teachers that this was “too competitive” and the kids that were much lower were being embarrassed. That never happened. Every kid was concerned about making his fish swim to the next level and the whole class celebrated when anyone’s fish moved and that kid was the star. They would also get on me for not testing them ENOUGH (we did one on ones to measure their progress with good old fashioned DRAs) and were always excited to have a one on one.
In college, I taught a developmental studies reading class, Everyone was embarrassed to be there. I waltzed in on the first day and assured them that they call all read but there were certain tricks to “taking the stupid test” and I was going to teach them how to beat it. (You know by learning basic reading stuff like main idea and such and more importantly how to properly bubble)
My reviews were great and my favorite was from a repeating student who said, ( Ms Tattles is the best professor ever, Mr. X (my boss who read my reviews) SUCKED because he was just trying to teach reading but she taught me how to pass the test. All those people cared about was passing the test. So I stressed on every lesson, “okay here is the crazy type thing they will ask you on the test, ‘What is the main idea of the paragraph?’ Who cares right? But it’s really simple to answer once you get this one trick… ” Worked like a charm.
Good grief I am so chatty tonight sorry. Maybe I should start a Daily Tea for myself.
I like when you’re chatty …. it reveals another facet. 🙂
Oh Leo will Never comment here again. EVER. I don’t get people who think they are the ONLY ones with access to the Internet.
Thanks, TT! Jeebuz, I’m pissed that I know someone showed, leaving the suspense for the rest of the episodes abysmal… Some people obvi don’t read the commenting rules! TT gives the tea. We all can provide shade. And like you said, TT, we all are already on the internets, and we could, but dont want to spoil a show for ourselves. (I though Project Runway makes all the designers continue to stick around, go to Mood, and do a collection for fashion week, just so people who see them filming won’t spoil it for the rest of us.)
In other news, I’m not really spoiled. I dashed in to delete because someone linked me. and I did not even look.
NICE!!!! I should have thought of that. Thanks and kudos to the person who was so thoughtful…
My cousin once spoiled the ending to Saving Private Ryan (it was only out maybe a week…) Even though I’m not a violent person, I seriously punched him in the shoulder hard enough to bruise (I had JUST said don’t spoil… but he was intent on telling me everything). It is a fucking pet peeve of mine.) He’s lucky I didn’t throat punch him. Never did go see the movie.
Ashley got robbed on this one, she made the most wearable set and completely finished the wrap. I really liked her color choice too.
Merline ‘ s was all look no function. Earlier during the workroom visit a bra was criticized for looking like a 16 year olds bra, but the winning look definitely was for a younger customer.
Princess Blake was awful, we get it you don’t like girls, I was surprised how bad his bra was the model was a small size and bounced and jiggled down the runway. I really was dreading how he would treat his client during a “real woman” challenge. I’m shocked he got eliminated not because he didn’t deserve it but because the producers like these kinds of antics.
Bye Leo.
I’m so glad I didn’t see the spoiler – I really enjoy this show! My only issues this year are the judges. What are they thinking about when choosing best and worst? Is it now just producer/sponsor driven? At least Blake left … he was more annoying than controversial.
Seems to me, I missed something big… again
It’s NY Fashion week and the PR finals are filmed as the finalist have a little show “at fashion week.” So a couple of different dipshits came running into the thread telling us who was there. They seemed too stupid to really know anything. And we don’t care, we’d rather not have the show spoiled. So I peeled their skins off as if they were grapes and boiled them in a vat of hot oil.
Now you are caught up.
Oh and I sent the bodies to your places, so you’re gonna need to hire someone to dig a couple holes. TIA.
Lol. Thank you TT. I needed a good laugh.
I missed it too. I thought JoJoFl spoiled since TT edited it (the first post) but it looks like someone named Leo then tried to spoil too. I’m glad I missed the spoiled.
Loved Ashley’s. Merline’s would rip so easy it’s made of lace with no structure. Cheap looking if you ask me. Spapnil’s wrap was everything. I would buy today if they had it for sale. The bra though a no go. All those straps not functional for wear and if it was for a bridal night as he said I would not trust some overly excited man to take off a bra with all those straps he would probably strangle you before he got it off.
I loved how Zac Posen called out Blake for saying he was a dress designer and undergarments were not his thing.
